#11: A teachers survival guide to navigating those tough last weeks of term.


Listen Later

Who feels like they are crawwwwwwling to the holidays? That end of year push can feel impossibly exhausting. 


And it’s obvious why it is hard…. We are tired, we are burnt out.


Buttttt as you know, being a teacher is pretty multifaceted, there's a lot of reasons why this time of year feels really tough, after all it's not just us at a computer getting through that last bit of work. It is us, plus 30 other human beings, who are also exhausted and counting down those days.


So in this episode I'll be discussing WHY it is so tough, for us, and our students, as well as giving you some of my top classroom survival tips leading up to the break.


I’ll be talking about:

  • What makes teaching so much harder at the end of the year.
  • What could be escalating the behaviour of our students at the end of the academic year and other school terms.
  • What you can do to keep a settled and productive classroom environment to reduce the low-level behaviours in the lead up to the holidays.
  • How to just get through to the end, even if you’re in survival mode!
