Self-care for Educators

More than one of you have mentioned "emotional strength", "emotional challenge", and "physical challenge" when expressing your doubts and fears when addressing inclusion and diversity in the classroom.

I don't think that's surprising--with all of the pressures that we have as educators (and people--we're also spouses, parents, athletes....!) it can be hard to find a balance. (Says the mom of three who is correcting tasks and writing in a forum at 18.40 in the evening on a Sunday... ha!) I'll share with all of you some ideas for Self-Care, and then I'm moving away from my computer and going for a walk with my family....

Thinking routines

Hello, everyone! "Project Zero" is from Harvard's Graduate School for Education, and this webpage http://pz.harvard.edu/thinking-routines#CoreThinkingRoutines has a whole list of Thinking Routines. Look, for example, at an image of the pdf that you can download for one of my personal favourites: See-Think-Wonder: The PDFs are free, so I'm planning on downloading them all so that I have a folder on my computer that I can go to when I need inspiration or a change of routine. I thought that you may find them useful, as well! Have a great day! Jessica Church

We all are different and that's cool!

Cole Blakeway is a boy who considers himself different and he's so happy because he thinks being different is awesome. Each of us are special and unique and we are perfect and happy just the way we are. He says It is also great to have a "different" friend. A great and funny video to reflect on diversity and inclusion in our classes and in our lives.
