Today in our LAUSD Local District 5 Principals Meeting, we showed video footage of Dalton Sherman’s address to the Dallas Independent School District. Of course, this 5th grade student from Charles Rice Learning Center spoke in front of Dallas administrators, teachers, and other faculty and staff back on August 25, 2008. But since then, his words have made the YouTube circulation and has been blogged about by a number of educators (funny, I guess I’m contributing to this fervor).
TeacherTube Video: Do You Believe In Me? – Dalton Sherman Addresses DISD
The reaction by administrators and Local District 5 faculty was still of unanimous inspiration. It is amazing how this young orator is able to connect with not just those in the 17,000+ audience at American Airlines Center, but also to so many via the videosharing circuit (YouTube, TeacherTube, etc.). So many principals came up to me during the break to find out how they could get a copy. My response was to search for it in TeacherTube. I stated, “Just search/type: Do You Believe in Me?”
