Welcome to our little blog. It’s about teaching – the art of it. We hope you find something here that inspires you.
As a teacher, you’re a magnet dragging through a sea of paper clips and other metal objects. Some things will stick to you, you carry them with you. Little pieces of things, lessons you’ve learned. Fragments of the teachers around you, some masters, others brand new or exactly the same as you – wondering sometimes which way is up. You’ll collect particles of moments with students, stunningly clear, and put them in the bank. You’ll apply or employ or reflect on each piece from your collection at a later date, consciously or not. They make you stronger, smarter, more effective. You’re teaching, but you’re learning all the time. And it’s exactly that – the never-endingness of teaching, and the cycle of gathering, growing, and sharing wisdom that’s so unique. It’s difficult and beautiful, and in new ways every day. So in this place, we lead with gratitude for all the people, moments, and ideas that stick to us, inspire us, and position us as perpetual learners. We celebrate the teachers who wake up every morning, just for the love of the game.
For Love of the Game
