Shrink the Change!

In the Don Johnston Snap and Read training today, we talked about how difficult change can be for people. We watched a video that totally resonated with me. It talked about "shrinking the change". Dan Heath gives an example about cleaning the house and talked about taking a 5 minute timer to the worst room in the house and pick up as much as possible in the 5 minutes. The reality is once you start with cleaning, you probably won't stop when the timer goes off. The hardest part is not continuing but rather getting the motivation to get started.

I'm looking forward to the opportunities Snap and Read will bring our students and teachers. The list is growing!!
