Solution Tree

Had a friend ask me how the High Impact Teams Conference that I'm leading for @SolutionTree is different from other education conference. Here are 90 seconds worth of thoughts:

The NPMS math team spent a few days in Omaha at the Solution Tree Mathematics in a PLC at Work Summit! Their commitment to continuous growth and collaboration makes me proud and I appreciate them taking the time to do this work. I’m excited to sit down with them and hear about all they learned as we continue to improve student learning outcomes for all of our kids!

“Only connect!” - E.M. Forster's famous words resonate deeply with the core message of Renaissance Thinking in the Classroom. Just as our brains are wired to make connections and see patterns, true learning happens when students forge links across disciplines and ideas. This is why I developed the Nine Habits of Thinking - they're not isolated skills, but interconnected ways of seeing and engaging with the world. When students cultivate diverse curiosity (Habit 1) and ask genuine questions (Habit 7), they're doing what comes naturally: seeking connections that feed the mind. Renaissance thinking is about weaving together knowledge, creativity, and human experience in ways that transform learning. Get your copy here: https://lnkd.in/gxUpHmE9

Did you know that November is Children's Grief Awareness Month? Or, that 1/12 U.S. children will experience the death of a parent or sibling by age 18? Grief is a normal part of life, and schools must find ways to support students experiencing it. Join my next #HaveaLifeTeaching podcast guest - Lindsay Schambach , CEO of the NJ based Imagine Grief Support Center - and I as we discuss ways through which teachers and others within school communities can help students process their grief over deaths of people involved in their lives as well as those experiencing grief related to other traumatic events. Listen here: https://lnkd.in/erh96pQe Also, in the comments, I will link to a related chat on dealing with school community trauma systermically with Geri Parscale and Darcy Kraus - authors of the Solution Tree book - Navigating the Unexpected. #teachingandlearning #grief #death #wellbeing #childrensgrief #trauma
