Our principal invites us to do a book study every year, and we follow that theme throughout the school year. We've done such studies as:
The Leader in Me by Stephen Covey
How Full is Your Bucket? by Tom Rath
FISH! by Stephen Lundin
Whale Done! by Ken Blanchard
This year, our Principal decided to have us read our book over the summer so we can truly kick off the year with all of our new good ideas in place! I'm reading The Energy Bus right now, and when I'm finished, I will pass it along to one of my co-workers, and so on... by mid-August when we come back for school, we should have all read the book! I'm about half-way finished with it right now, but let me tell you - it's such an eye-opener! The power of positive thinking is truly remarkable. Now, I've heard most of this stuff before, but it's nice to be reminded every once in a while :)
If you want some light, fun, professional reading for the summer, check it out! You won't be sorry :-)
