Taking Care of Teacher

Here is some information and health strategies to stay well and effective.

There has been a reappearance of whooping cough and measles, so be sure these immunizations, as well as the current flu shot, are updated for the new school year.  I'm serious--better be safe than really sick for a long time!

Taking care of teacher is not as much fun as taking care of your kids-- but we aren't superheroes, so get your shots.

Teaching takes an inordinate amount of mental focus and emotional output. But what happens when teachers are stressed or deal with emotional or mental issues?

So open the window so you can smell the jasmine!

Summer Breeze Seals and Croft 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsHuV3Aj1os 

Summer Breeze

See the curtains hangin' in the window
In the evenin' on a Friday night
Little light is shinin' through the window
Lets me know everything's alright
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
See the paper layin' on the sidewalk
A little music from the house next door
So I walked on up to the doorstep
Through the screen and across the floor
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom
July is dressed up and playing her tune
And I come home from a hard day's work
And you're waiting there, not a care in the world

Keeps your math thinking clear.
This next link is for math improvement. Although it is clearly written by a math person for upper grades, I really appreciate the advice for visual learners and this can be useful for lower grades. It is so wise to write your work carefully. If possible, it is also smart to use appropriatesized graph paper for scratch paper and block out each section you've used for each problem so you can so back over and check your work, which is the method of high achievers.

"Glittering Garments of the Rainbow" Audobon's Hummingbird

That was what Audobon called hummingbirds.

Seals and Crofts Hummingbird 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4r5Sl6WouLU 

Oh, hummingbird

Mankind was waiting for you to come flying along
Heavenly songbird
We were so wrong, we've harmed you
Oh, hummingbird
Lend us your wings
Let us soar in the atmosphere of Abha
Lift us up to the heaven of holiness
Oh, source of our being, oh hummingbird
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away
In you I've found a fragrance
I'll love you 'til I die
I just love you, love you, love you
I don't even know the reason why now
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away
The sweetness of your nectar
Has drawn me like a fly
I just love you, love you, love you
I don't even know the reason why now
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away
Haven't you noticed the days
Somehow keep getting longer?
And the spirit voices whisper in us all
Haven't you noticed the rays?
The spirit sun is stronger
And a new day is dawning for us all
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away
Alas, here comes the gardener
He's come to till the flowers
The drought of understanding
Wisdom, peace and love is ours now
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away
Don't fly away
Don't fly away
Don't fly away

The bee is not afraid of me.
I know the butterfly -
The pretty people in the Woods

Wherefore mine eye thy silver mists,

Wherefore, Oh Summer’s Day?
