John Miller recently challenged some of us to summarize Agile for the K-12 crowd. I wound up writing a tweet I could share with my nine year old:
MJ and George both take issue with “Always Improving”. MJ prefers “continuous adaption” because improvement implies there is an agreed upon definition of up. George feels that it doesn’t imply continuous learning.
What would you write for the K-12 crowd? Have fun with it.

Think big, work small, fail fast, and learn quickly!
Excellent – although it is missing something about the customer.

For my four year old: “It’s like playing well together. You have to take turns listening and sharing with each other and with the customer.”
Kim – your four yr old sounds cool.
