Thanksgiving break has passed and now we face the long road between now and winter break. It's tough! The semester is ending, schedules are bursting at the seams, & your students are distracted by holiday dreams and wish lists. Here is my countdown to winter vacation. Enjoy!
1. Coffee Becomes Your Lifeblood
You are staring down the days (daze) between now and Winter Break and realize the only means of survival is an IV of espresso.
2. Your Mind Becomes Distracted in the Middle of Class
You have shopping lists and that addictive holiday song stuck in your head. It makes sense that your mind may wander in these last few weeks of the year!
3. You Get an Unexpected Observation Right Before Break 😲
Deep, slow, calming breaths. You got this. Remember, soon you'll be sleeping without an alarm clock and won't need that coffee IV attached to you.
4. When You're Stuck in a Meeting
Six words: It. Could. Have. Been. An. Email.
5. Holiday Treats Show Up Daily in the Teacher Lounge
You deserve those three Hershey Kiss cookies, and don't let anyone tell you different.
6, Your Desk Starts to Overflow with Homemade Gifts
The gifts from your students makes your heart melt!
7. When the Bell Rings on the Last Day
Don't run any students over as you sprint out of the building!
How many of my stages of the "Winter Break Countdown" do you relate to? Let me know in the comments section below.
