It is Tell All Tuesday time!!! That means joining with Teach, Talk, Inspire and My Day in K for the super fun linky party!!!! This week the linky is about our teacher bucket list!! Makes me so giddy to even say! I have had so much time to reflect on my first year of teaching and set aside goals for what I hope to be able to accomplish throughout the next few years of teaching. Through all of the bloggers that I follow, I have seen SO many amazing ideas and experiences that I KNOW I want to take part in!!
Here is my teacher bucket list of things that I want, NEED, and hope to do :)
1. I HAVE to visit RCA!!!! I have read his books, watched his interviews, and listened to other blogger's experiences and I just cannot wait to have my own chance to go! I have heard nothing but amazing things and I know that going will inspire me in ways that I didn't even know were possible! The learning that goes on in RCA is simply remarkable. I am sure that when I go, I will be an emotional mess, but it will be 100% worth it!! I cannot wait to get the opportunity to go and be inspired by this once in a lifetime experience!!!
2. I have also heard amazing things about the Teacher Blogger Meetup in Vegas!! I would love to go and see the presentations put on by bloggers that I am so inspired by! I also think that making the connections with other teachers who are so motivated and passionate is so essential! It is so important to me to be able to have others that push me to be better and I think that going to Vegas for this would fit right in with that!
3. Get my master's!! I am looking into getting my master's degree and cannot wait to further my education. I think it is essential to continually seek improvement and advances in my education/professional development! I was really having a hard time choosing online versus a cohort and I think I have finally settled on a cohort! I want to make personal connections with people and I find that to be easier when you are (forced) in a room with other! I love to hear others opinions and experiences so I think this choice will work best for me!!!
4. Continue to use social media to make connections and grow! I absolutely love how social media platforms such as blogger and Instagram have allowed me to meet people from all over the US. I have been able to have so many conversations, share ideas, and find new products through the wonderful teachers that I have met. I hope to continue to utilize my blog and Instagram in a way that allows me to continue to grow and push myself as well as to meet more amazing, motivated, and FUN teachers :)
What is on YOUR teacher bucket list?!?!?!
Getting my Masters is also one of mine! I also want to go to the Ron Clark Academy! Best wishes on your bucket list!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for the blogger meet up! I am looking forward to it!

Molly, I loved reading through your bucket list. You have wonderful goals. I think visiting the Ron Clark Academy would be a wonderful experience and I hope to go someday too. I also think going to Vegas would be amazing! I went a few years ago for the I Teach K conference, but now that I have a store, I would love to go to the TpT conference and meet all the fabulous people I have connected with through blogging and social media. Maybe next year we will both be able to go! I think doing a cohort is the right idea for your master's. I did that for mine and I still talk to the girls I met. It's nice to have that community as you works towards your master's. You can support each other. After I got my master's I started doing some online classes to get extra hours. I wish you all the luck as you work towards attaining your goals and thanks for linking up with us!
ReplyDeleteWe enjoyed reading your post! You have some great goals! We hope to make it Vegas next year, too! Maybe we will see you there! :) Thanks for sharing!
