^^^Replying to this. I've been seeing some of this, too. There's a lot of students offering to help each other and help me out as well.

^^^^Replying to this one. I've been feeling this a lot these past 2 weeks. I feel bad when school invades too much of my personal time but feel bad if I'm not productive enough during my personal time. Something I should work on.

My freshmen classes are really challenging me on a day to day. Listening. Working effectively. I am struggling with them on a regular basis.

I am enjoying (mostly) the day to day and thriving with some of the classes.

The 2 grade levels that were most affected by covid years are really showing deficits emotionally, behaviorally, and content wise.  It feels like one step forward, 2 steps back.

This is my achilles heel this year. I am constantly being reminded (due to behavioral issues and lack of information retention) that I have to go extreeeeeemely slow in order for my students to demonstrate knowledge and skillset.

It seems more like a typical year- most groups are in a good groove.  Classroom procedures are going smoothly and students were able to pick back up from last year.

I'm feeling like my students are excited for art and truly seem happy to be back at school!

Same @ FAMS...students are really enjoying Art so far this year.

AMEN TO THAT! I am also spending more time than I need to on those behaviors. MAKING should be most important! But is not in some cases.

Just wishing there was less time having to be spent on behaviors and expectations and more time on learning and doing art. But...I know this will come with the practice we are doing!

Struggling a bit with maintaining balance between work/home life. Running around non stop all day but that to do list keeps getting longer! Trying to not guilt myself into spending too much outside time on work, but also enjoy the feeling of being as prepared as possible when I start my day! The struggle is real!

Students are eager to get started on projects. They also seem excited in general to be back to school and be around each other. I am gearing up for a Field Study student to be joining me for some time this fall. Also looking forward to fine tuning lessons from last year as I get ready to teach them this year. I enjoy that reflective part of teaching and always working to make things work better based on previous results.

This may be because of the refreshing summer or due to just a change in my routine but I've found I have more energy in class, which seems to be rubbing off on the kids.

This isn't something that specifically is worse this year compared to previous years but I have a surprising number of students not take responsibility for keeping up with daily or weekly goals. Some students may work too slowly to complete something in class but make it clear they prioritize sports, core classes, or just keeping home time leisurely and homework-free at the expense of their grade.

As a parent of a kiddo with in a current sport, and with a job, I know they get really stretched for time. He has so little time to do anything beyond: sport, shower, eat, a bit of homework, sleep-repeat, then on weekends it's the same but add work in so sometimes he has even less time to work on things. We've learned that next season he won't be working, he's going to have to take a leave. For kids who HAVE to work to pay bills/help family, this must be incredibly stressful. Something to keep in mind. Sometimes they have a lot more going on then we realize.

I don't think I'm currently struggling with this, but I am working on an after-school art club and an in-house publishing center (with my IMC coach).  I'm not wanting to neglect one thing for another, so I'm hoping to use the resources at my school properly so that I am not too involved in one area and not enough in another.

I still feel like I have to devote a lot of time to reminding students about classroom expectations and self-regulation. It feels like we are still building up social and emotional skills.

I have observed students really looking out for each other more than in years past.  Teamwork, listening skills, and focused mindsets have also been incredibly high!  I'm really looking forward to seeing creativity evolve throughout the year.

I agree. The energy level isn't quite as high as it was, but that is normal, and I'm starting to see more late work as things get harder and pile up, but I'm also seeing kids working hard to catch up.

Communication with teams and colleagues are working out fantastically. Tasks are getting done quickly and effectively. I have more time and energy for extra involvement around the school.

I am pleased with the positive attitudes and work ethic of my artists. The works are beginning as personal responses (in some cases) that are allowing a more personal attachment to the learning of techniques and creation of work. Go artists!

I am still struggling with balance-not enough time in my day to respond to emails, plan, grade, prep, etc. I'm spending more time working from home than I would like.

I feel like I'm more on top of things, I feel motivated, and I feel more energetic than I have for two years. Additionally, my students appear to be in the same boat (attendance is better, they are more prepared, and seem to be better mentally).
