Hitting the Books with Dr. Brooks
As a seasoned educator with over 20 years of classroom experience, my job has often felt never-ending. Summers were often spent trying to cram as much as I could into my realm of relaxation, without complaining that as a mother of 3, that relaxation that I had been dreaming about all school year may not live up to the hype. With all the added stress that being a parent to school-aged children brings to my job as a teacher, all I ever want to do in the summer is sleep a little later and not have to worry about planning anything. The only advantage of this for my children was the fact that if mommy is on break- we are ALL on break.
Tips to Excel Beyond Expectations This School Year
Books, pens, and your favorite device are in your backpack. New clothes hang in your closet. Lunches with healthy protein and nutritious sides have been planned. And your hair is done too. You are ready to go back-to-school, right? Partially right. If you have not put in any thought or effort into planning how this school year will be a success then you are not ready.
