Living
At Park Manor, the school where I currently teach, one of our key goals is to ‘know yourself’. We encourage our students to identify and share the element of who they are – personality, likes/dislikes, strengths/weaknesses, goals, values, character traits, and the list goes on and on. We take time at the beginning of the year to do this with our students, however I ask myself why don’t we also take time to do this as educators?
I know that I am, just like my students, a work in progress.
