I remind myself of what really matters and that worrying accomplishes NOTHING

When I feel overwhelmed I break my work up into chunk and write them on a calendar. I also set a timer to set aside 30 minutes to stay focused on a task.

I remind myself of a time when I was successful in a similar situation and overcame the challenge through perseverance.

I always make it explicit to my students that the greater the challenge/struggle, the more opportunity there is to learn and grow.

Step away. Practice a mindfulness strategy and take a deep breathe. Sometimes I forgot to breath.... :)

Think, reset, retry

Work with the student to read over the directions and break them down into chunks that make sense to them. It feels less overwhelming and they are able to realize that it makes sense and they do know what to do.

Think about the finished “product” and take time to really vision or meditate on it.

YET

celesteward — 2024-06-29 16:50:02 UTC

I remind my students that they can say, I do not know/understand this yet.

They often approach a task thinking that they should understand immediately. Yet, helps remind them we learn at different paces.

Twice a week I give students an opportunity to bring a friend and join me for lunch. This develops community, togetherness and builds relationships.
