#160: How to Handle Halloween Energy Without Losing Your Mind
Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, but it can be really hard to navigate as a teacher. So how can you handle the chaotic holiday energy without completely using your mind? This week we are talking about some practical classroom management strategies you can implement to still enjoy this holiday without your class breaking into complete chaos.
It's no secret that disruptive behaviors rise around this time of year. Students are exposed to more sweets, less rest, and just pure excitement for what's to come. Which is why today we'll be talking about how to plan for the high every, still keep routines tight, how to utilize transitions wisely, and how to intentionally channel that magical energy to have an enjoyable week.
The truth is, Halloween doesn't have to be a scary time of year. In fact, it's one of my favorite times of year to bring one of my favorite holidays to life and still maintain a calm classroom with my students.
