We had an interesting discussion this week in our model teacher meetings about culture and climate of our schools. As a new teacher to the building, it has been an adjustment to learn new staff and figure out how to read personalities.
Culture is the personality
Climate is the attitude
The question on everyone's mind was- how do we change the climate of our building? What a great question!
Thank to an amazing first grade team, I feel like our climate continues to improve every time we work together. Our culture is what makes our group function and gives us the ability to challenge one another's thoughts. We have taken time to find out what is important to one another to build our relationship.
A question to continue to ponder....When you can't change someone's attitude; how can you change the climate of a building?
