Last week, I participated in a webinar for my teaching credentials. The training was originally going to focus on summer activities for teachers to provide families of young children that would correlate with continuing learning goals throughout the summer. The presenters did a wonderful job changing the presentation to fit our present situation with the current pandemic. Not only did the focus include the students and families, but also the educators.
Several slides from the presentation came off a website where they were downloadable for free. I saved a few of them. I was looking at them today, and found one I wanted to share.
“Daily Quarantine Questions”
What am I grateful for today?
Today my son was offered a job on the spot at the first interview. He also just finished off his second year of college. I am very grateful for my son.
Who am I checking on or connecting with today?
I have distance myself from many people since all this has began. I try and check in with my parents via text every day or so. I guess reading Facebook status makes me feel connected with the world.
What expectations of normal am I letting go of today?
Well today, I did not fix dinner. My son was out playing disc golf with a friend and my husband was working late. I have not skipped cooking dinner very often since we’ve been at home. I really can’t think of how normal is going to be after this is all over.
How am I getting outside today?
I have not been outside today. Some days are like that. A couple days a week I walk around the neighborhood.
How am I moving my body today?
Not much today.
What beauty am I either creating, cultivating, or inviting in today?
I am currently creating 2 cups for teacher gifts. They are turning out pretty cute. Today I started creating a digital teacher’s planner. Maybe I can find someone interested in it.
Well, I feel that I didn’t do well with the quarantine questions today. Tomorrow I will try and do better. How are you doing? Are you able to give a positive answer to them? Maybe it is something you can reflect on as well. Let me know!
