a long road ahead

With much reflection I have realized that I made a mistake in preparing myself to endure until the holiday break. I  ignored the next leg of the journey. Everyone said it would get easier, so instead of listening to my own intuition, I waited for that eureka moment. It never came, and now I'm finally over it. I can see now that winter will be the hardest part for me.

Over the course of the next months, I am working towards the following:

• getting better at teaching math 
• improving on and expanding my ability to differentiate (one child each day)
• reaching out to parents more often (one parent each day)
• creating clear goals for my kids as they move closer to their goals
• imagining a spring full of growth and exploration
• going to yoga at least twice a week
• ending my work no later than 8pm every night
