It's hiring season! I've learned so much more about hiring over the past few years compiling ideas from @Beth Houf, @Joe Sanfelipo and, @Jimmy Casas, and more in my PLN. Hiring a new staff member should not be a daunting task or just something to cross off your to-do list. This is a huge opportunity for your school. It's important to make a good impression of your school from the beginning. Is your job posting very traditional or are you recruiting someone to join your team? Think about the questions you are going to ask. Be prepared ahead of time. I find interview questions say as much about you as a school and your values as it does about the candidate. Finding the right interview questions is one of the most frequent topics in my private principal groups. I've compiled a list of interview questions for you here. This also includes some of the questions that Beth Houf and Shelley Burgess recommend in “Lead Like a Pirate”. I suggest using Lightning Round questions. Here comes the very best part- making an offer to your chosen candidate. You want them to be as excited about joining your team as you are about inviting them to be part of your school. How can you let them know that you think they are a Rock Star and should choose your school? No matter how you narrow down your candidates, conduct interviews and offer your chosen candidate the position, don't forget to follow up with the other candidates. No one wants to be left wondering if they are going to hear from you. I wish you all the best this hiring season and hope you add the perfect people to your team. Please reach out if I can offer any support as you add new members to your team this year! @bobbiefrench (all the socials!!) www.bobbiefrench.com I'd also love it if you would follow/subscribe and/or add a review and don't forget to share with your friends and colleagues!

Are you a Connected Educator? It's time to get off your island! My connected journey started after reading "Lead Like A Pirate" by Shelley Burgess & Beth Houf. I was so excited to read it, I downloaded it on my Kindle, which had lots of links and it kept taking me to Twitter posts. I decided to dive right in and joined Twitter (@bobbiefrench). I connected with so many other educational leaders from my own state of Massachusetts and across the country. When I decided to get more involved with my local association, MSAA, some of my fellow committee members and I had been Twitter friends before meeting face to face at Convocation. It's a different feeling meeting someone in person that you've been friends with through Twitter for a while. I had the opportunity to meet many of my Twitter friends of a few years at the NAESP conference in Spokane, WA in 2019! It truly was like we were old friends and greeted each other with hugs, hung out, had dinner together like old friends. I met even more friends at the NASSP Conference in Boston. Since the conference was so close to home, I couldn't resist going and connecting with many more amazing leaders. I encourage you to get connected. Here's my Call To Action- Join Twitter, participate in a Twitter Chat or follow a hashtag (#LeadLAP, #PrincipalsInAction / #PIAChat, #Momsasprincipals, #TheBusyPrincipal ), join your local principal's association, join NAESP and/or NASSP, download the Voxer app.... connect with me and I can add you to a principal's group that will expand your learning and sharing opportunities. There are so many ways to get off your island, find your people, get connected with other busy principals who can help you be not so busy! Thank you for listening.

Today I discuss how teachers need to use every opportunity to make each day exciting for students. As educators we need to build the excitement for students and make them want to learn. As Beth Houf and Shelley Burgess say, "Make kids want to knock the doors down to get in, and not out, of school."

Programs don’t teach kids, teachers do. We have to protect teaching talent by empowering teachers to take the important pieces of a curriculum and spend more time personalizing their lessons with their passion, talent, and creativity so that students can receive a personalized learning experience to become their best. Tune in to hear how teacher leaders can empower teachers so that their talent leads the way in the classroom. Quotables It’s the responsibility of the teacher to take a program and bring it to life with their own talent and expertise We educators can’t be replaced by robots who just Charlie Brown at the front of the classroom We have to apply ourselves, every day, just like we ask of our kids. Those are the tools within us utilizing the tools given to us to make an impact Without us educators, a program is only a program, but with us it becomes learning As a teacher leader your responsibility is to help teachers get through to students in the most efficient and effective way Be the guide on the side and exercise patience We as teacher leaders have a job to do to empower teachers to remember their innate ability is most important in teaching kids Each day of learning is a day to save a child. We make them more capable and confident than ever before and that allows them to go out into this world and become whatever it is they are meant to become Book recommendation Lead Like a PIRATE: Make School Amazing for your Students and Staff (https://www.amazon.com/Lead-Like-PIRATE-Amazing-Students/dp/1946444006/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1527343313&sr=8-1&keywords=lead+like+a+pirate&dpID=41rAhbFKSBL&preST=_SY291_BO1,204,203,200_QL40_&dpSrc=srch) by Shelley Burgess and Beth Houf Join the New Teacher Support Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1872455209751203 (https://www.facebook.com/groups/1872455209751203) Join the Always A Lesson Newsletter http://eepurl.com/lJKNn (http://eepurl.com/lJKNn) Connect with Gretchen Email: gretchen@alwaysalesson.com Blog: Always A Lesson Facebook: Always A Lesson Twitter: @gschultek Instagram: Always.A.Lesson Linkedin: Gretchen Schultek Bridgers Google+: Gretchen Schultek Bridgers Book: Elementary EDUC 101: What They Didn’t Teach You in College Leave a Rating and Review: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/always-lessons-empowering/id1006433135?mt=2 (https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/always-lessons-empowering/id1006433135?mt=2) Why?

An article that caught my attention was: "Troubleshooting: A bridge that connects engineering design and scientific inquiry." It was written by David Crismond. This article compares classic troubleshooting versus design-based troubleshooting. The emphasis of troubleshooting is on observing, diagnosing, explaining, and fixing. Troubleshooting stands ready as a bridge that can link the practices of engineering design with those of scientific inquiry.

Pinterest is gaining popularity as a way to collect and share resources. Google Glass has the biggest “wow” factor amongst the ed tech crowd since the first iPhone. The shift from tools to best practices has made major strides (or maybe I just picked better sessions this year.) ISTE is less about technology and more about education reform, transformation, and 21st century learning. The commercialization of education is far too prominent at ISTE. My best learning still takes place in unstructured situations. We as teachers need to learn how to be learners again. Students need to hear less talking and have more time for exploration, self-directed learning, and failure. We need to take back play and bring the fun and games back to learning. Teachers don’t share their work because they don’t think they have anything remarkable to share. You and I are the change makers. http://thecornerstoneforteachers.com/2013/06/big-ideas-from-iste-2013.html The world’s most famous teacher blasts school reform The most famous teacher in the world is not a fan of high-stakes standardized tests, Teach For America or the Common Core State Standards. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/wp/2013/07/16/the-worlds-most-famous-teacher-blasts-school-reform/?wprss=rss_education&clsrd Music that you listen to as you work: Wait, what about teachers?..... http://columnfivemedia.com/work-items/sonos-infographic-working-jams-what-music-to-listen-to-on-the-job/ Half-Baked Ideas . . .
