Innovative Teachers

There are amazing teachers all around the world who are brave enough to step out of the "teaching box norm" and create innovative ways to teach our children.  They are also willing to share their techniques for all of the lucky teachers out there who are brave enough to listen and follow their lead. Dr. Joe Mazza says, "Plainly stated, each of us (teachers, parents, principals, organizational and community leaders) has the responsibility to be the innovators our kids so vitally need to help them grow and leverage their strengths."  Here is a link to Dr. Mazza's article Every Teacher an Innovator.  This article is a great reminder about the how and why we need to become innovators ourselves.  It's important to note that we don't have to be an expert in an area to be an innovator, we just need to have the mindset to promote the need for change!
