Midterm blues?
Actually, I don’t have any deep blues but I am swamped with midterm grading. I need an assistant! I am so looking forward to this break.
One professor reminded me that as a student she always thought the breaks were for her.
Ha! We both know better. We’re looking forward to this as much as or even more than our students! I plan to NOT grade papers, to not review presentations, to not do anything related to work.
Teaching can be very consuming, and planning would take over my existence if I let it. I am not saying I should not care, I just need to maintain balance.
