Raise your hand if any of these statements are true for you: 

• You're waking up later in the mornings.
• You find yourself slacking on your normal routines.
• You are exhausted in the afternoons. 
• You’d rather be spending time in the sunshine than cooped up indoors. 

This time of year is always filled with dreaded testing! Whether it’s standardized testing or end of the year assessments, your students are drained and honestly, so are you! We are going to share some coping strategies you can use to handle the stress, overwhelm, change of routine, and just plain boredom teachers all experience during testing!

In this episode you will hear:

• Be proactive by gathering materials and organizing these in advance. 
• Try and define some form of consistency for yourself and for your students. 
• Develop a new schedule and have this displayed in an area where you can reference this.
• Utilize the down time and be proactive for finalizing end of the year tasks.
