Help! What Does Self-Care Even Look Like This Late in the Year?
SHARE

As the end of the school year approaches, many teachers find themselves struggling to maintain their sanity amidst the chaos of end-of-year activities and the constant demands of the job. In a recent letter to We Are Teachers, a teacher expressed her frustration at being called a “witch” by a child while wearing a linen outfit for a teaching activity. This incident, while seemingly innocent, highlighted the teacher’s struggle with basic self-care and stress management.

The teacher, who signed her letter as Brewing Some Self-Care, shared her concerns about feeling overwhelmed and exhausted during this time of year. She sought advice on how to combat stress without further exhausting herself. In response, the We Are Teachers team offered some helpful tips and resources to help her navigate this challenging period.

One key suggestion was to make space for breaks and prioritize self-care. Taking time to rest, recharge, and engage in activities that bring joy and relaxation can help alleviate stress and prevent burnout. Additionally, the teacher was encouraged to do a calendar audit to prioritize tasks and make time for self-care activities.

Another valuable resource recommended was the work of KC Davis, particularly the book “How To Keep House While Drowning.” Davis’s approach to reorganizing tasks in manageable ways can help teachers like Brewing Some Self-Care feel more in control and less overwhelmed. The teacher was also advised to set boundaries and protect her peace by saying no to additional demands that may exacerbate her stress.

In another letter, a teacher expressed frustration with students’ focus on grades over learning and the constant battle for more points. The teacher, who signed as Stop the Points Battle, sought advice on how to shift the focus back to growth and understanding while maintaining her sanity. The response included strategies such as providing opportunities for retakes, grading less frequently, and giving clear and meaningful feedback to students.

Ultimately, the teacher was encouraged to hold her ground and redirect students to the syllabus or rubric when they sought additional points. By establishing clear expectations and boundaries, the teacher can create a culture that values learning and growth over grades. This approach can help students develop a deeper understanding of the material and foster a sense of accountability and responsibility for their own learning.

As the school year comes to a close, teachers are faced with various challenges and demands that can take a toll on their well-being. By prioritizing self-care, setting boundaries, and focusing on meaningful learning experiences, teachers can navigate this busy period with resilience and grace. Remember, it’s essential to take care of yourself first before you can effectively care for others.
