Angela Maiers is one of my favorite educators to follow. If you haven't read her book, Classroom Habitudes: Teaching Habits and Attitudes for 21st Century Learning, I highly recommend that you do. In the summer, I spend a lot of time in active reflection. I journal about what went well, what needs improvement and where I want to place my focus for the next school year.
The You Matter Manifesto was front and center in my email this morning and I knew I needed to share this with all of you. It makes us think deeply about our intentions in the library, in our teaching and as a school community member with a different set of attributes to offer. Angela states, "knowing that we matter is essential to our existence..."
This is important work that we do - on so many levels. I encourage you to print out the manifesto as a gentle reminder that we all matter.
