Tannie Corrie kom kuier.....



Tannie Corrie kom kuier........jou hart spring sommer uit jou keel. Want jy weet sy bring groot tasse want Oom Isak moet dra. Maar dis nie die ware wat in daai tasse is, waarvoor mens wag nie. Dit is die ontasbare waar na mens uit sien. Ons gaan lekker rondry. 1000 stuk puzzel sal gebou word. Ons sal dik stukke lag or simpel dinge. Ons sal bietjie Brandy drink. En eet....ons gaan eet; kook kos, vet koek en hertzoggies. Die kinders sal weet tannie Corrie kuier want as jy weer kyk is tannie Corrie besig met die kinders lekkergoed uitdeel, hulle gesels en as sy kan sal sy sommer lekker terg.

Tannie Corrie het altyd geweet wat mens regtig nodig gehaad het. Die tasbare en ontasbare. Sy ken jou hart sy weet wat jou lewenspad nodig het. Ons almal gaan haar mis, maar gelukkig is die hemel want, Tannie Corrie kom kuier!

a. Is modeling your learning something that is important to innovation?  What do you do to model your own learning through your practice?   Modeling learning as an educator can be nerve wrecking. But I have learned to fail In front of my students with grace and humility. And to show that success doesn’t happen without failure hard work determination cooperation. Being challenged is hard but good. When you work out there’s nothing like feeling it the next day. b. Relationships and collaboration are crucial to innovation, but what about working in isolation? Where does that come into play? Isolation is the moment where personal struggle is evaluated the failures and the successes are measured. Isolation can be lonely if the approach is to take failure personally. However if you distance yourself from the failure and evaluate the failures to improve them to try again that is success. c. Who is an educator that has had a tremendous impact on you in your career that you met th...

Innovator's Mind Set...in the begining

Why is innovation so crucial in education today? Innovation, when I think of the word, I think of a brilliant lightbulb, illuminated over the head of a person sitting at a desk. Eureka you might suggest is flowing from his mouth and they have a finger pointed to the sky. Isn't that, what we want most of our students to look like. Students with ideas resonating, asking questions upon question. Making connection through learning. Yet often we get the opposite, most students just want the answer to the worksheet to be in compliance with you the teacher so that they can get the grade to make their parents happy. Mark hungry students who can't seem to understand that learning is a process. Their parents know the drill, pay attention, memorize get good grades. Two semesters in a row I was fortunate to teach a gifted student who didn't need to be in my course to get the credit. He took grade 12 calculus instead of my grade 10 science. One day he came to see me for help regardi...

A Brand New school #IMMOOC

This past year I had the opportunity to meet students from the I nspiring children foundation located in Las Vegas Nevada.(I know most people go to Vegas to do other things I pursue my love of tennis and education).  They are students who are exceptional athletes who run individual study projects to support their dreams and the quest for happiness. Kids had passion for life and were learning subjects on their own while committing to individual study projects. They were very inspirational many of them living far away from home. Students were close knit and had adult mentors for support. The kids seemed confident, happy and determined to be successful. CORE VALUES: If I had to design my own school, I would want to design with the end in mind. There would be core values that would be created by creative inspiring and innovative educators and students. These values would revolve around the power of knowledge. INDEPENDENT STUDY PROJECTS: Students would select courses by interes...
