I hope everyone had an awesome break and enjoyed their time with family and friends. We have 20 days to the holiday break! Not sure how that is possible, but it is. Let's make the most of those days. Here are a few ideas for what you could do during those 20 days:
- Make one positive parent/guardian call/email each day for the 20 the days
- Take 20 minutes each day to reflect and appreciate life
- Take 20 minutes each day to read and learn. Alternate, one day for professional, one day for pleasure
- Go for a 2o minute walk each day. During school, get outside or walk the halls.
- Over the next four weeks, spend 20 minutes a week talking with your students about their interests, hobbies, what makes them laugh, favorite movies, music, etc. This can happening during lunch, before school, after school, in the hallways, etc.
- Take 20 minutes to reach out to old friends, colleagues, mentors. Let them know you are thinking of them. If someone made a positive impact on your life, let them know.
Thanks for all the work you did on the budget over the last few weeks. I believe we are in a good place moving into the 19-20 school year.
See Instagram post below, I would to love have a few teachers participate in the 20 day Takeover.
