Instructional leadership is hard. Instructional leadership has student centered leadership at its core. It is about building relationships that will enable the leaders to work side by side with the teachers in their specific location. instagram.com/p/CVn4uMLDYEp/

Supervising home learning while working is tough! This week some of our SLI educators shared their tips and tricks from the classroom with our Education colleagues: develop a routine, make a daily plan, regulate stress, strive for balance, and most importantly, love your kids.
Did you know there's a special way to celebrate your students in #MicrosoftTeams? Try using Praise Badges to recognize moments of growth! 🤩 Get started in Teams: msft.it/6016nn7d4 Check out more Office Hours tutorials: msft.it/6017nn7df

NSW DoE teachers. Even though you can't schedule meetings from within Teams, you can use Outlook desktop to schedule Teams meetings with your class: support.microsoft.com/en-us/…. And yes, you can download and use Outlook on latest T4L image without principal approval

An oldie but a goodie - Annotated EAL/D content descriptors for the Australian Curriculum. I remember first seeing this a while ago but have forgotten about it in the last few years. Was reminded today after reading the latest CESE EAL/D paper. docs.acara.edu.au/resources/…

I’m working with a number of schools who are using Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction to guide T&L. I have produced an introductory guide for staff, with examples of how each principle can be implemented in the classroom. Happy to share if helpful?
