I Start Great Monday and Burnout Friday. Why?
Ever get a case of the Monday blues? Where everything seems to be the most onerous of tasks and lethargic tendencies reach their all time high? Well for me, I get the Friday blues.
I start the week with high energy and expectations for what is to come. While the students are yawning and brushing off the weekend, I hit them with a sneak attack of legitimate enthusiasm for the content and activities. Monday becomes my most productive day as I typically stay longer after school to complete work for the week.
Then by Friday afternoon, my students are keeping me awake with their booming energy of anticipation for the upcoming weekend. Why is it that I can't even make it to the end of the week?
Maybe it's because I'm getting older, but I mostly think I just bust my bottom so hard at the front of the week that I start dragging it by the end. My hope is to go to bed earlier throughout the week to get more sleep. Also, I will distribute my work evenly among the week.
