Back from Thanksgiving break with three weeks 'til Christmas—and it’s already chaos. In this episode, CJ talks about navigating shifting schedules due to sports tournaments, whether to cancel the long-awaited brain rot project, and how to reset classroom expectations in December. He also dives into what to do when students trash-talk you for holding them accountable, how to come back after a rough sickness, and where to find encouragement when your admin won’t give it. Plus: funny holiday game ideas on the cheap, showing grace to students with medical challenges, and a look at joyful teaching as a healing practice.
