| Original Board Posted on Twitter 2019 |
Last year I ran across this summer PD choice board on Twitter. As someone who likes goals and lists it immediately appealed to me as a way of keeping motivated over the summer.
The original file was posted on Laura Cahill's blog and I made a copy and modified it for my set of circumstances. It was fun checking things off the board throughout the summer.

I had filed the idea away to share with our teachers this year (2020) and modified it again with our Beaufort County School District teachers in mind. The week we went out on break I posted it to our district's EdTech Facebook Page (a closed group we started with our district teachers as a place to share EdTech ideas and ask questions).

Like Ms. Cahill writes in her blog "The idea is that whatever your situation, there is something you can do this summer that will re-energize you and reignite your passion for working with students." I liked the idea and with Covid concerns, and many summer conferences cancelled, I hoped it would keep educators in our district focused on growing and developing over the summer in whatever capacity that means for them.
If you are interested in trying it out for the few remaining weeks of summer here is the link to the revised template I posted for our teachers - https://bit.ly/38VUffO. You will be forced to make a copy and you can edit it as you see fit. You will simply copy and drag the check mark to keep track of all the opportunities you tackle.
Here is a look at my 2020 board with approximately 2 weeks of summer left.
