I am the hub of a wheel. I like control. I don’t like change. I like to be prepared and ready. I don’t like the unexpected. It’s hard for me to differentiate.
I need to be a cookie. Spreading out the locus of control; handing over responsibilities, helping others develop tools to control their own lives; being Ok with failure and learning from it – these things point to student ownership and teacher release.
I will reflect on this, ask for help, choose to make change.
