School years are usually 180 day. And now you are down to today and half-day on Monday. What are you looking forward to with the summer break? What do you do so time doesn’t slow down and Monday gets here quickly?

There’s no really escaping how time seems to slow down just when one is feeling close to the end. It probably doesn’t help that “they” turned off the A/C these past two weeks, such that the afternoon classes really begin to drag in time with the temperatures in the classroom climbing. It’s probably only in the 70s but normally so cold in the classroom that I have to wear a sweatshirt in the afternoon. All of which has nothing to do with really answering today’s prompt…

This summer break is pretty special to me in that it represents the end of the last 28 years of my life as a public school educator and the beginning of whatever the next chapter might be. That reminds me, I have a daily prompt set up for the last day of the school year (Monday), but I haven’t entirely decided what I’m going to do with JBB’s Daily Reflection Prompt after that. I’ll probably take the rest of the week “off” and then begin some new version the following week. What do you think I should do? The original version came out of the daily prompts I was creating for my Middle School homeroom students and any videos had to be limited to 5-minutes or less. I don’t have to follow those restrictions after Monday… Again, what have you enjoyed and what has been more of a “meh” thing. Let me know in the comments area. You might also think about subscribing directly to the blog at joebustillos.com so that you can get the posts directly in your inbox whenever they post. Thanks and please let me know your thoughts about where I should go with JBB’s Daily Reflection Prompts now that school is ending and I won’t be posting these to students after Monday.
