  • 10 Easy Ways to Build Stamina, Joyfully, in Any Learning Space
    Sep 12 2023

    10 Easy Ways to Build Stamina, Joyfully,  in Any Learning Space

    Let’s Talk, Teacher to Teacher about stamina.
    Following the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic we see how much our children are struggling. This struggle is all over the news. Our students are highly distracted, very emotional, and most of all - they lack significant stamina to learn effectively. Stamina includes motivation, endurance, and other critical skills for self control that are needed to complete a task without frustration or fatigue. With over 20 years of teaching experience I have honestly begun to refill my own teaching toolbox. Even though I have taught in Title 1 schools and have worked with diverse students for many years I am finding that current student needs are not being met with research and best practices that have been shared before the pandemic. And I continue to talk with many other educators and administrators with the same concerns.  So, I want to share with you the tools and practices that I have been using with hopes that you will be able to better meet the needs of your students.
