First, I read @stoodle’s Exorcising Teacher Demons post. In his post what stood out to me was that he took the “high road.” Instead of actually venting for a whole blog post, which could be counter-productive, Matt chose to take his co-worker’s challenge:
If you were asked to come up with 10 things that you’re doing well this year, you could do it.
Then Meg Craig put out the call…
#mtbos, let’s make this a trending blog topic: #10goodthings you’re doing well as a teacher this year. https://t.co/oNBypK4PsC cc: @stoodle

Here is my response to both Matt and Meg, but with a twist. This year I have learned so much from the twitter/blog community known as #MTBoS (math twitter blogosphere) that I needed to show all of these wonderful educators just how important their impact is for educators across the country. So, I decided to write 10 good things I’ve learned.
