I have a notebook for my running to-do list. Each morning when I arrive to work I update the list (mark off/add) and sometimes when I leave I will add things for the next day. When I walk out the door at 4:00, I leave school behind and focus on my family. The list will be there when I get back in the morning!

As far as student behavior in Q4, hold tight to your expectations. If you remain consistent in your policies/class structure it will help.

Best way to get through the end of the year is to keep students busy and leave work at work! It will be okay to let some things go when you have big events going on in your personal life. Example end of year activities and treats don't have to be much. Your students will just love spending time with you.

This is a way to make reviewing fun for the students - it is a great time....you just need come with an upbeat attitude!! It will be great!

As far as EOY, my advice is don't lower student expectations..it is better for them to stay as much on schedule as you can. You also have to keep them busy, you are going to want to take it easy a bit..but if they are busy they are better!

One of the biggest challenges right now is fitting in curriculum while also planning fun engaging acivites. Students are ready for spring and summer so trying to keep them engaged is difficult.

Making sure to keep students motivation up, and setting them on the right path to enter high school. 8th grade graduation planning, and our trip to Carowinds. :-)

I think we are all thinking the same things. Staying motivated can be difficult. 4th Q is so fun, but it can be hard to get in everything you need.

WEDDDINGGG PLANNING + BUILDING HOUSE + EOY events!! It feels like all of my free time after school/weekends is filled with wedding events, planning, prepping for house, moving (all amazing things) but it has been a busy year! I want to remain patient and calm during all of the new transitions and beginnings:)

Getting married the weekend coming off the last week (june 3)- wondering what that balance will look like of wedding planning and finishing up the school year (teaching, EOY events, cleaning classroom for summer, etc.).

Similar to what others have said - maintaining student focus and correcting behavior issues.

The biggest one that I am seeing is trying to maintain student focus and put out all the little fires while still teaching curriculum. Problem behaviors from students are now escalating, regaining students attention and the mental burnout.

I agree with Pinon, Q4 is the best but also the worst. There is a lot going on, lots of fun things and breaks, but there never seems any time to get anything done. It is hard to get students to refocus, and myself, after the dance concert and EOGS.

Q4 is the best but also the worst. There are field trips & lots of days off, but there are also end of year tests like iReady and EOGs. Both students and teachers are tired & excited for summer break. The challenging part of Q4 is getting students to stay focused & motivated until the very end.

Student behavior resets- trying to re-regulate students and reteaching how to behave in school, problem behaviors not being resolved or exacerbated upon return to school

Mental burn out- being so close to the end that you want to be done for the year
