It's really helped my mental health.]]> 2023-01-24 19:02:30 UTC https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455198440 thedding https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455200289 During Book Club yesterday, we did Romeo and/or Juliet a chooseable-path adventure. We were all laughing for nearly the whole meeting, and as the kids walked out, I overheard them still laughing and saying "That was really fun." It made my heart melt.]]> 2023-01-24 19:03:49 UTC https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455200289 thedding https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455201663 It's been really hard to keep myself accountable with working out. I feel like the students a lot of times when it comes to working out, mostly because I could justifying anything apparently. ]]> 2023-01-24 19:04:48 UTC https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455201663 thedding https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455203492 As the semester ends, a sizable amount of students are shutting down emotionally. They're realizing that they are out of time and that they made the choices that led them to this point (a lot of times; there is always an exception).]]> 2023-01-24 19:06:04 UTC https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455203492 thedding https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455206076 How do you help your candidate manage their time better? I'm always torn between providing ideas and letting them struggle a little bit to learn (like we do with the students sometimes). What do y'all think? Has anyone encountered this before?]]> 2023-01-24 19:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455206076 thedding https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455211563 I've begun to notice that the more experience I've accumulated, the "easier" it is for me as a teacher. For example, I learned the kind of assignments that aren't helpful for me or the kids, and have learned to ask better, more effective and efficient questions. I assumed this would be true, especially since my teaching program at UCSD talked about the average that around 5 years in it gets easier to manage. I wonder how true this is for everyone; have you noticed that for yourself? For your candidate (especially if you've had them for 2 years now)?]]> 2023-01-24 19:10:41 UTC https://padlet.com/thedding/6wkuzz8r3o33siut/wish/2455211563
