\"BibleSince it can be hard to get busy people out for additional meetings, you might want to include some teacher training in with your teaching staff meetings. Yet, with all the announcements you might need to make and work you must do on strategies, you might have little time remaining for teacher training. To be impacting, you therefore need to make every moment count.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Zero in on ONE key concept.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The goal would be for teachers to leave with something they can remember and work on.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Weave the key concept throughout the entire meeting in a variety of ways as a means of reinforcing it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      This will be easier to do if you make the training topic relevant to other issues you will be covering.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Extend the training by suggesting additional resources to do on their own.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        You can use the training resources pages<\/a> on this site for possible resources to suggest.<\/p>\n

        An Idea:<\/strong>\u00a0One thing I did was to send out a one page (often front and back) newsletter about one to two weeks after the staff meeting. On it I included a recap of the key training concept, asking how they were progressing, and then looked at it from different angles.\u00a0 I would sometimes give a practical illustration of it, some additional points to consider, a quotable quote related to it, a resource recommendation, and a devotional related to a personal quality they could work on that would help them implement it. The Be-Attitudes for Teachers Devotional Book<\/a> actually had its beginning in these newsletters. I always emphasized that what we do grows out of who we are.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
