June 2021
June is a month of winding down for summer vacations. I also use it for a time of reflection of how the year went and how I can improve for the next year. I know things are hectic and checking this out may be the last thing on your mind.
But….
There are a few important things you can do at the end of the year that will save your time and prevent re-creating things in the fall. Creating a master google classroom….Archiving Old classes…. Creating a Resource Classroom for your grade level or content level partners… These 3 things will help to make sure next year starts off organized without a lot of work to reorganize and refind those resources that you used last year.
Self-care is another topic for this month, just ideas on recharging, relaxing and learning a new skill. https://www.smore.com/ae461
