tuzor Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I am in a planning slump. I was so stressed entereing the holidays I could not wait for a break. Now that are break is coming to an end I have to do my lesson planning. I find that I am doing everything else but. I mentioned it to my husband and he panicked. I think I made a mistake looking for next years curriculum. Several of the programs have the IG laid out for me. That would mean with the execption of tweaks I would not spend as much time planning lessons. So I am eagerly waiting for that time and not in the present where I still need to plan. Can someone give me some pointers to get through this time. In the meantime I am going to take down the tree get the christmas decorations boxes out of the classroom so that I can have some space to plan. Something about clutter in the house and classroom prevents me from being able to concentrate on planning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailorMom Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 :grouphug: I have to actually plan a time, and stick to it as if it is an appointment I made with someone else that cannot be canceled. Also - only commit to about 45 minutes at a time. Then - bribe yourself with something. "After 45 minutes I will get to ___________..."

tuzor Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 Okay at least I am not alone. Good news I did get the tree down, that cleared a lot out of the classroom. Now I have asked hubby to help me get the picture frames out of there and onto the wall. Then perhaps I can lock myself in there and think and get going. Wishing you all the best, that your slump passes quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
