Whew! This week was exhausting! I tried to have mini celebrations in my classes and it was difficult. Next year- I will spread them out. #lessonlearned Luckily, I had my sixth grade classes planned out with Nailed It Mexico. It was a fun mini-unit, and my students learned a lot of vocabulary throughout the presentation.
This break, I will take a break! I plan on putting together New Year’s Predictions for 2020 like I have done in years past. I will try to watch a few episodes of Ditch Summit. This year, I am going for quality over quantity. I plan on watching one or two videos and soaking them instead of worrying about watching all of them. Remember- you do you! Sometimes I feel bad doing a little work when people suggest taking time off. But, it helps me to finish things when I come back. I have found a nice balance and still have time to spend with my family doing holiday things.
In the meantime, check out these posts:
- Señor Fernie has me thinking about starting La Charla!

Hope you have a wonderful break however you decide to spend it!
