You are one year old today! Published in March of last year, Meenoo Rami’s Thrive: 5 Ways to (Re)Invigorate Your Teaching started a yearlong conversation around building successful networks, connecting with mentors, and translating a culture of positivity to your students. Following the book's publication, Meenoo facilitated a blog tour.
The blog tour itself was a testament to Meenoo’s hard work—building connections in the profession and exchanging ideas—so it was only sensible for teacher-bloggers like Troy Hicks to pay it forward and praise Thrive as “the right book at the right time. [It] reminds us of how we, as teachers, need human interaction, intellectual fulfillment, and empathy as much as our students.”
Revisit the blogs in the tour below.
