Teachers, would you rather have more sick days or more personal days?

I’m sure you have LOTS of opinions and lots of conditional questions before you answer that controversial, difficult question.

Well, what if we could use would you rather as an awesome way to equip kids with the skills they need in the future?

In this week’s episode of the This Teacher Life Podcast, we’re tackling one of the most important questions educators face: how do we prepare students of all ages for success in college, careers, and life?

We dive into strategies, tips, and real-world advice for helping students develop the skills and mindset they need to thrive, no matter where they are in their educational journey.

But we’re doing it with a twist! This isn’t your typical talk about test scores and lesson plans.

Instead, we’re remixing a classic game, using it as a fun and interactive tool to spark engaging discussions about crucial life skills like: listening, compassion, empathy, reflection, and more!

From decision-making to adaptability, we’ll uncover how even the simplest games can be powerful teaching moments.

Tune in to hear how to use these creative approaches to make a lasting impact on students and help them tackle the challenges of tomorrow’s world.
