How to Become a Lifelong Learner in Your Literacy Classroom

How to Become a Lifelong Learner in Your Literacy Classroom

In this episode:

Listen in as I talk about the what, the why and the how of embracing the role of life long learner.                   

We talk about:

-What it means to be a lifelong learner.

-What life long learners don’t do.

-How to take on the role of life long learner. 

Quotables:

-A lifelong learner is always thinking about how they can improve, acknowledges what is going right so that they don’t have to reinvent the wheel and isn’t afraid of trying new things. 

-Being a reflective teacher means to think about what is going well, what could use improvement and what our contribution is to both of these things. 

- It’s not the collecting of knowledge that helps our practice as literacy teachers grow, it's our implementation of our new learning that does that.
