Leader in Me Implementation Guide

This is our school's third year of being actively involved in the Leader in Me Process.   It has been such an amazing experience, and has enhanced the school culture dramatically.  When we first began, we weren't exactly sure how we wanted to go about the process.  Therefore, we started small and focused on the Wildly Important Goals for our school.  For us, changing the school environment to reflect the Habits, and embedding the language into the curriculum was important. In addition, explicit instruction of the Habits was also necessary.  As you will notice in our plan, I taught the 7 Habits explicitly in all Guidance Classes to all grade levels.  I have various ways that I do this, and will be sharing those with you often.   Here is our implementation plan for Years one and two.  We are well on our way toward becoming a Lighthouse School and can hardly wait!

Ga Ga over Google!

I knew that Google was amazing, but this year, I am learning even more amazing things that Google can do, and how to incorporate into my Counseling Program.  For starters, I have upgraded my School Counselor Request form and learned how to make it two or three forms in one.  I plan on doing a screencastify tutorial very soon!  This has been a game changer.  Now, students, teachers, and parents need only find one link in order to communicate their needs to me.  Next on my Google adventures is how I've been able to use Google Sites to develop Leadership Notebooks for all students in Grades 3-5.  Students are loving being able to add their data into this digital notebook, and I am certain this will be big selling point for parents when Student Led Conferences begin next month.  I helped all the students set up their site in Guidance this week, and they have each shared them with me.  This is allowing me to see right away how they are doing in their ...
