Happy October! Fall breeze, autumn leaves! Or is it stressed, blessed and pumpkin-obsessed? Either way, grab…
It’s SUMMERTIME! It’s time for teachers to relax and enjoy a well-deserved break, while looking back over a fantastic year. What’s on your bucket list this summer? Need some ideas to unwind? We’ve asked some of our favorite TpT Teachers to share their summer bucket list items to get you started!
“Family time at the lake house, finish our kitchen remodel, relax with a good non-PD or teaching book, one just for fun!!!”
“Going to the mountains and improving my teacher products. Taking time for self care. It’s ok to forget about school for a few weeks!”
“I want to travel and eat healthier! I also think every teacher should try to attend an awesome PD that makes you want to go back to school immediately!”
“I’m going to read for entertainment and go on a road trip. Remember to treat yourself! It’s okay to be selfish and take time to take care of you!”
“Travel to a state I’ve never been to before, and DIY a playground in my yard for my kids! This summer, take 20 minutes a day to do something for yourself that you love!”
“Exercise and rest! Make sure to take time for you, put work away, have a day outing with friends.”
“Schlitterbahn Water Park: It really is the hottest, coolest time in Texas. Also, find 8 hours alone. No pressure to talk or take care of anyone. We all need a good detox break!”
“The first item on my bucket list isn’t very exciting, but I have to get my house cleaned. No spring cleaning takes place because of school, so I use the summer to clean up the mess. The second thing on my bucket list is to spend lots of time with my kids this summer.”
“Going to the beach to trade my lesson plans for a sun tan! Taking some much needed “me time” in summer!”
“I am spending time with my family and soaking in some time at the beach! I think all teachers should try to fit in a spa day, read a new book, lots of napping… whatever makes you feel refreshed for a new year!”
“Travel and self-pampering are my must-do bucket list items for this summer!”
“Go to a concert and organize a cookout at the pool with friends! Taking a true break from school!”
“Explore, enjoy and disconnect! My biggest goal every summer is to travel! This summer I will be traveling to Dubai, Bali and Thailand for a month.”
“As a teacher mom I always find it hard to balance work and home life, so this summer I really want to live in the moment with my boys and enjoy new experiences with them like teaching them how to ride bikes without training wheels, how to swim free style across the pool without pool floats, and see Toy Story 4 at the El Capitan in Hollywood, CA!”
“Sleeping in and heading to the beach! Rest and recharge!”
There you have it! Some great ideas to start your well-deserved summer off right. What else is on your bucket list this summer break? Let us know in the comments below!
