Engagement Learning Task

We had the most comments yet with 87!!!

Your Task
We invite every district employee to read each weekly post on engagement and then comment with what you are currently doing to provide these kinds of engagement structures in your current instruction. Every person who comments will be entered into a drawing for PRIZES. Don't miss your chances to share the excellence in your classroom with everyone and a chance to win PRIZES.

Wink's Words
We all have goals, but all don't have accomplishments that are aligned to those goals. The reason is because of this quote.

Discipline is bridge between goals and accomplishments - Jim Rohn

This week don't miss your opportunity to promote the important of discipline to your students. For many that is all they are missing to accomplish great things.
