• In my mind, being a master means being a learner. Each day and every day needs to be approached with an open mind and expectations of change and discovery. Being a master learner means allowing kids to explore, to sometimes fail, and often times to surprise me with their discoveries and their work. It means being open to new directions and new thoughts that might take us to places I had never thought of before. I struggle with finding a balance between directing activity and letting it emerge and flow. I aim in the direction of provincially mandated outcomes and strive to provide the direction that gets us there, but I'm also willing to miss. I believe that as a master learner I should promote questions and ideas, and even answers occasionally, but I often struggle with this as well.
