I am actually itching to go! I can't wait to meet my new students and want to get teaching again. I need a routine and to be busy, so I am one of those annoying teachers who is ready for the summer holidays to end. (Sorry...not Sorry).

However - I am well aware that the start of a school year, especially if you are new, or working with new staff, can be a little stressful, so I have put together some links to old blog posts to get you started off on the right foot!
  • Ice Breaker Activities (For MS/HS students...but you could also use these with teachers!)
  • Culture Shock (Some visuals to help you discuss culture shock with all your newbies!)
  • Approaches to Learning Posters (Remember, if you don't change displays often, they almost become invisible!)
  • Global Context Posters (You can print off the ones with a blank box, to describe how you are exploring this with your students - or to add your specific exploration)
  • Global Context Training 
  • ATL Training
  • TOK Training
  • MYP Interactive Unit Planner (this was made by my good friend Carmen Samanes. I have this open every time I am writing curriculum)

​and lastly - this fantastic video: "Weird, or just Different?". This is a great video to start a discussion a out international mindedness. It's also great to show people who are going through transition/culture shock!
Send me any great 'Back to School' resources. Also, this year, I hope to blog more. Give me a nudge when I need it!

I don't know how it feels to be under pressure when you are a teacher, because I am not a teacher in the first place! But I know for a fact that it is and will never be easy to be a teacher. There are lots of responsibilities you need to deal with and there is a possibility that all your efforts might not be enough. The job is utmost demanding, that's why I understand where the pressure is all coming from. But as an empowered teacher, I know that you know in yourself that you can do that!
