How has leadership changed me?
Being a leader in my own classroom is a world I am comfortable and familiar with. In ECI 508, I was pushed out of my comfort zone and asked to practice my leadership skills with fellow colleagues and within my school. Being able to share opportunities for literacy instruction across content areas has helped me to grow as a leader within my school. Working side by side with first year teachers on how to incorporate reading and writing along with the use of technology to improve literacy in their classroom has provided me with the skills necessary to move forward as a literacy specialist and coach.
