       Acknowledgments

      Thank you to all teachers everywhere! I am proud to say I am a teacher, and I believe it is one of the most important professions in the world. Specifically, I want to thank the collaborative writing team that coauthored this series of five books. I have never worked with a more dedicated, fun-loving, collaborative team of lifelong learners. Thanks to the Otus team for your support and to my family for putting up with our writing marathons. I give my deepest thanks to Douglas Rife and the entire team at Solution Tree for helping all of us craft this dream into a reality. Wow!

      —Meg Ormiston

      Thank you to my students throughout the years who have taught me more about education and learning than any book or other resource could. Thank you to Meg Ormiston for giving me this opportunity to share my experiences with other teachers. Thank you also to my mentors, Robin Bruebach and Matt Rich, who continually push me to grow and evolve in my craft. Thank you to my parents and family who have supported me throughout this life journey.

      —Beth Hatlen

      Thank you to the teachers I have had throughout my education who have inspired me to become that teacher who tries to understand, guide, and instill curiosity in my students and make learning exciting to them. Thank you to the many administrators who encouraged me to keep learning and growing. You are amazing examples of what teaching should be about. Finally, thank you to all my students, who make it easy to teach from the heart. I would not be who I am without you!

      —Kristy Hopkins

      Thank you to everyone who supports my dreams, both big and little. Thank you to the colleagues, friends, and mentors who pushed me. Thank you to Greg Michie, who challenged me to think deeper and whose influence consistently grounds me and fuels my fire. And thank you to my students, whom I always keep in my heart and who are the reason I feel passionate about all I do—dream big, my little ones!

      —Kirstin McGinnis

      Thank you to all the great teachers who helped guide me into the world of education. Thank you for showing me that learning can and should be a fun, exciting adventure. Life is what you make it, so let’s make our classrooms so engaging that students would buy tickets to get in!

      —Lissa Blake

      Thank you to all my past teachers and students who inspired me to become the teacher I am today. Thank you to my administrators, Matt Rich and Robin Bruebach, who continually push me out of my comfort zone and help me grow as a learner and a coach. Thank you to my husband, Justin, who supported me through this journey and always puts our family first. Finally, thank you to my parents, who have been simply amazing!
