Teacher Attitude
As a teacher, I always need to attend to my emotional self in my practice. This week was a very busy week for me in school and out and I really started to feel it. With the stress of trying to get multiple projects done and not exactly being confident in how to do them I was falling behind. This stress started to wear on me and I have been extremely tired. My tiredness and stress was effecting me and it effected me on Thursday while in practicum. I think that it effected my teaching because I wasn’t completely focused on the tasks of the day, instead I was preoccupied with thinking about my lesson plans I needed to work on and whether I was doing them correct or not. I was also extremely tired which was effecting my concentration. Just like bumpy moments talked about, my emotional self was having an effect on my teaching. After reflecting on this I see the importance of emotional self-inquiry.
