This summer I have been adaptive by scheduling out time to work on homework. I also have been adaptive with trying to find new sources and trying to workout a new idea for my classroom for my AR. I have had to say no to things that happen on class days or on nights before class in order to be well rested and prepared.
People in my life have had to make adaptations to my schedule as well. Luckily knowing dates in advance helps so my friends and family have tried to schedule things that are not on those weekends. I'm currently the maid of honor in my friends' wedding for next year but we have been scheduling dress appointments and stuff on weekends that I don't have class so that I can be there to help out. They have also been understanding and supportive of me needing to get work done every week.
Hanna- As I read your post I can see all of the juggling of time that has occurred. You are right scheduling ahead certainly is a balance in our lives. Keep going we are going to make it.
ReplyDeleteI relate to so much of this! It can be hard to slow down on the weekends of class, but it helps make class so much more meaningful if we are 100% in and ready. I think that you are doing a great job balancing it all so far! Keep it up! :)
