Our EES School Community Gratitudes by Jessica Pass https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls How have you GROWN in 2020? en-us 2020-10-30 17:40:37 UTC 2021-01-04 03:21:46 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f333.png I am grateful that the COVID-19 restrictions have given me a different perspective on how we celebrate birthdays in our family. We focused less on the parties this year and more on spending quality time with the person doing whatever it was he/she wanted to do. We decided we would make a change to how we approached birthdays from now on as a result of the situation because it was so much more meaningful the way we did it this year. jessica_pass https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/877335986 2020-10-30 17:43:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/877335986 https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/877360205 I have a new appreciation for my job as a teacher. Getting to be in the classroom with my students has felt like a gift after being apart for so long. My excitement to teach is like it was my first year teaching.]]> 2020-10-30 17:49:56 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/877360205 I have appreciated the opportunities to grow and learn new things I've been given by being pushed outside of my comfort zone. I'm also thankful for the grace that others have shown me as I've made mistakes along the way! https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/877756251 2020-10-30 19:57:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/877756251 The big slow down https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/878615979 I am thankful that we have been forced to slow down and restructure our priorities. Taking the hustle and bustle out of life makes it much easier to spend time on things that make us better people and parents and partners. I am also thankful for the spotlight on mental health that has been long overdue. ]]> 2020-10-31 13:50:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/878615979 Graham is thankful for friends and family! https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/878706958 2020-10-31 15:26:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/878706958 We have slowed down and enjoyed more time together as a family. https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/880541820 2020-11-01 21:55:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_pass/6nnkl7btwzazrjls/wish/880541820 I have appreciated the time to start reading for pleasure again.
