4 Questions for Summer Reflection
Summer is a great time for reflection. You finally have time to clear your mind and think more deeply about your leadership.
As you are reflecting on your Instructional Coaching practice this summer, consider asking these KISS questions: *What do you want to KEEP doing? *What do you want to IMPROVE? *What do you want to STOP doing? *What do you want to START doing? Write down your answers to these questions to really reflect on how you want next year to be different. We are so often caught in the whirlwind of busyness that we find our days being consumed with the things we don’t actually want to be doing. If you can take some time to clarify what you want to Keep, Improve, Start and Stop, you will have more clarity about how you want to spend you time! I know many of you are coming out of the classroom and moving into an Instructional Coaching role for the first year! These questions can help guide your thinking away from planning for your classroom and toward how you want to use your time to support teachers. There are many thinking processes and habits you will be able to let go of now that you are moving into a new role! So take a moment of reflection this summer to be intentional about your priorities for next school year! As I start my new job launching an Instructional Coaching program at a new school, these are the questions I’m starting with as I plan my goals for the year! Check out Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller’s Podcast Lead To Win to hear more about how to use these questions to set goals for a new year!
