Why is this my new normal?

While sitting in a training on inquiry last week, my mind kept wondering to "how will this work in a math classroom?"  And then I had to stop and remember I am not only a math teacher anymore.  I need to retrain my brain to think about all subject and how these things could work in all classrooms.

For the past ten years, I have been a math teacher at Waukesha North.  I love teaching. I feel comfortable doing it.  It's where, I feel, I belong.  I have also been a Grading for Learning coach, an Infinite Campus coach, and had many other teacher leader positions.  When the instructional coaching position became available, I felt it was something for me.  I am blessed to be able to still teach my AP Statistics course and now "coach" other teachers, too.    It just seemed so natural of a position for me and I definitely hope I do it justice.

Each day I learn more about how I can do my absolute best in this role and I can't wait to see what the rest of the school year brings.
