What's in a name?

According to my Apple dictionary, admittedly not a definitive source, a ‘consideration’ is a thought, reflection, meditation, concern, rumination etc. I would like this blog to do those things. I’m hoping I can keep the posts positive because, as someone once reminded me, it is important to practise the habits of mind that you value and want to foster. For me those are: positivity, curiosity, openness and self-reflection (hence, a blog is a good forum).


Also, I’m calling them 'small' because I would like to try to get into the habit of blogging briefly but often. That way I can reflect on everyday occurrences and make this form of writing and thinking a habit, hopefully.

Quality colleagues (74/100)

I am lucky to have the colleagues that I do. Today I had very funny banter in the staff room over coffee with one. I also let my manager know that I would be away for a few hours next week to see my neurologist and she didn't condemn me for going in the middle of the day. Another colleague has agreed to give me some feedback on my new teacher's guide. Finally I was asked to present one of my student workshops about making effective presentations to the student recruiting team. It's nice to know that my workshops have value even for the staff. Also it was a really good chance to make practical use of some of the ideas in my teaching guide.
