Today was my first official day back to school. We started the annual round of staff meetings, professional development, and room cleaning. Our new superintendent is really into Marzano strategies (Marzano is the name of some big guru of teaching skills) so now we have to go over Marzano strategies. I'm okay with that...Marazano strategies are things that good teachers have been doing for years anyway.
I did realize today that I cannot stand working with people with bad attitudes. Attitudes within our department can sometimes be negative, but we're usually pretty upbeat. Others, though, are irritatingly negative all the time. How could you even get up in the morning to come to school if you feel that negatively about your students, their families and your schools? Sorry for my negative attitude toward negative attitudes :-)
