ABSTRACT

Teacher sightings can be inspiring to all teacher leaders. They can provide you with insights on how to create a classroom that is inviting to all students and a community that creates positive change. Teacher leaders’ students excel academically because they don't focus on numbers but on the development of the whole child. They remember that the child is more than the data. Students will achieve because they enjoy learning from rigorous, novel experiences. When students are engaged in critical thinking, they learn and maintain taught skills/concepts. Following the example of the best teacher leaders and adapting their best practices to meet the needs of your students will have you creating a reputation of a teacher leader yourself in no time.
