Welcome back! It’s been an abnormally long break from
blogging for a number of reasons. First, I feel like spring jumpstarts the
personal life plans! Between baseball starting (yay!) and hockey ending (for
the Avs…forever GO HAWKS) it’s just been go-go-go for three weeks! I’ve also
hit this interesting point (not a true slump – maybe a small hump) that I
couldn’t quite put a finger on until a funny article I read last night.
This is a must read for a good laugh and a little sanity
boost this time of the year. I can relate 100% to numbers 1, 4, and of course,
7.
I’ll give you a sneak peek with the memes because I’ve never heard someone complain about a baby duck, Jimmy Fallon, or Kristen Wiig.
In other news (and why my sanity might be dwindling) we are
in FULL panic mode swing with our cardboard challenge project. Next week
we are actually breaking out the….wait for it….glitter, paint, and spray paint.
That endeavor will surely have to have a follow-up post. The light at the end of the
callus-filled tunnel is in sight and with each project I am more and more
impressed!
Beyond the benefits of STEM it has been so enjoyable to sit
and chat 1 on 1 with them. I have noticed some of my shyest students break out
after their projects are complete! The compliments and questions they receive
really does everyone so much good! (Next year I will have to remember that and
do this MUCH earlier!)
Sometimes just
identifying your little slump hump can bring you right back! The previous article helped me laugh but a few more helpful ideas can be found below by these great bloggers:
