Everyone knows except maybe your students that teachers don t just go into hibernation during the summer months. Some teach summer school and some teach year-round. But if you ve got some free time ahead, it s a good idea to make the most of it. Take time off from being a teacher.
Summer is an important time to explore life from a different perspective.
Too many teachers develop a narrow vision, seeing the world only from the classroom window. Now s the time to broaden those horizons. Explore a passion you ve never had time to pursue before. Enjoy quality time with your family. Even if you re not going away on vacation, you can plan local trips.
