Why does teaching make me fat???

Image
Here are some adjectives that I often describe myself as when I am run down and feeling...well let's just say it how it is, feeling like rubbish; sluggish, fat, fatigued, knackered, exhausted, beat and I'm sure many more. During a very hard and busy term, it's incredibly easy to begin to feel this way. But why? Yes, teaching is hard and demanding, but I love my job which has left me confused for a few years. I enjoy teaching, with great job and self satisfaction on a daily basis, so why am I feeling like a hippo that would rather float around in a pool of mud??? Raise your hand if you recognise these following bad habits: holding the need to pee because you're in the middle of a lesson, struggling through the pain of your over flowing bladder because as you were on the way to the toilet, you got side-tracked by a parent or your boss who just had to speak to you at that very moment; missing your snack breaks because you've got to get the homework marked and bac

IGNITE your own professional development! Great Tips...

A very dear professional friend of mine ( +carmen blyth   TheTeacherWhisperer   @teacherwhispers )  once gave me some excellent advice. After she had taught for many years across the globe, whilst casually swimming along and talking about how I could improve my professional development...she left me with two very profound and eye-opening tips: 1) You must take charge of your own professional development yourself.

I was so inspired by my friends words which were so simple . I knew I could at least manage point 2 very easily, but I pondered on point 1 for a few months. How can I take c

R2M! Is your class doing this?

R2M What's R2M? Is your class doing it? Thousands of students, whether young, teenage or adult love star wars! As such, its characters are a great way to inject some captivating, visual stimulus into your classroom.  So what is R2M? Inspired by the character's name R2-D2, R2M stands for  'Respond to Marking!'  This is simply time that teachers give to students on a daily basis (where possible) for students to reflect and respond to marking. This is an incredibly important step in the learning process and often missed due to timetable demands. However, I have found that simply adding this to your daily routine (approx 5-10 mins) is positive in many ways; Students take more time and care over their work by checking, correcting and evaluating. Students enjoy responding back to their teacher. Students appreciate their marking more. Student's discussions on learning outcomes are more proactive, positive and reflective. Student's understandi
