Spring is known as a time for growth and renewal in nature and in the classroom. During this season, kids' limbs are growing and they are getting taller. My fourth graders' minds are stretching into that awkward gap of responsibilities and looming thoughts of middle school. The weather is about to get warmer, and we are growing into a new season. More injuries result as we are trying out our bodies that are too big for us and waiting as our brains catch up. It seems we are starting new each week.
Here in Austin, the flowers are blooming a bit early, but we're ready to dive into the homestretch! Spring can feel like a high performance time, and chances are if you're stressed, the kids are feeling it, too. It's a great time to review content, revisit procedures, reread some picture books, and maybe do a fun Spring Math Maze. (And here are the Spring Math Maze Answers.)
As educators, it is okay to take a deep breath and loop back around. We can celebrate our learning and how far we've come this year. Let's relax, and then look forward. You are doing a great job, teacher friends!
