Description

Join us as we share how we learned to pivot, embrace new rhythms, and find resilience in the face of unexpected change. From the struggles of lockdown to the surprising discoveries along the way, this conversation looks back at what those “little screens” taught us about teaching, learning, and life.


What we cover in this episode:



  • The sudden shift into lockdown and leaving our classrooms behind

  • Teaching from home and adjusting to new routines

  • Learning (and sometimes struggling with) new technology

  • Pivoting back to campus and providing flexible options for families—online and in person

  • The importance of asking for help and leaning on community

  • Finding joy in small moments and unexpected places



We also share a favorite passage from Brianna Wiest’s book, The Pivot Year, a collection of daily reflections on growth and transformation

 


Out of respect for our students, we want to note that while the stories we share are real, names have been changed for anonymity. In fact, every student we mention is named “Charlie.”  We use that name as a way to honor privacy while still sharing authentic classroom experiences.
