I often wonder if people in industries other than education get this tired at this time of year. Preparing for fifth grade graduation, wrapping up the school year in a meaningful way, getting grades done, final testing and analyzing results, packing up a classroom, and yes, moving to a new one. It's a wonder it all gets done, but it does, magically, each and every year.
A teacher friend reminded me today that I really don't need to make any drastic changes, but to stay true to my authentic teaching self. Actually, a few friends have said this. I am so fortunate to be in such a supportive community, where we lift each other and truly want the best for each other and the kids.
So yes, I am tired, but I am blessed, too.
