Concept+Overview

= // T.E.A.M. Twyman //= ==Team Twyman ( Teamwork Equals An Awesome Mindset ) was created during my tenure as a fourth grade teacher. As an educator, entering my fourth year as a 6th grade teacher, the concept of team work must be implemented in order for achievements to be made.==

==This school year, the team concept will be implemented throughout the year. Students will be addressed as "peer coaches." I want to instill in my students that we all have something to give and when we all contribute as a team, all we can do is win! It's all about providing my students with a sense of purpose. My goal is for them to develop ownership for their education.==

==My philosophy is when developing a mindset you must be positive, therefore yielding positive results. My goal is to elevate their minds and to help understand that they are the executor director and screenwriter of their life.==

==As "head coach," I am going to do more guiding and mentoring while the peer coaches steer the dynamics of the team. This concept will be modeled daily, therefore the gradual release of responsibility should come with ease. In contrast, there will be rules and consequences. Just as if they were on a sports team, discipline is first and foremost!==

I am looking forward to a great school year because as a team everyone accomplishes more!! Go Team Go!!
