#whatisschool is back again this week – sorry for the delay in posting the questions, it has been a manic week in the lead up to Christmas. I am super excited about this week’s chat as I welcome Steve Wyborney to the #whatisschool stage! Come and join us this week to discuss moving from beliefs to messages.
What we believe about our students and what we believe about ourselves as learners has a powerful impact on our students. The messages we send to students matter tremendously. Come and learn about the power of beliefs and messages with co-host Steve Wyborney, author of The Writing on the Classroom Wall.
