After months of lesson planning, grading papers, and covering lessons due to whatever reasons, we hope that you are savouring the Summer vacation/holidays just as much as students. If you need a check list to acquaint yourself with what it means to chill [sic] fret not, 'borrow some leaves' from here https://www.citeprograms.com/teacher-summer-break/.This article just hit the bullseye https://www.boredteachers.com/post/heres-what-summer-vacation-really-looks-like-for-many-teachers. And are you aware that there are teachers laughing themselves away through the summer holidays? Learn more here https://www.boredteachers.com/comedy-tour#summer_shows. In case you aren’t within the tour zip codes, how about visiting any comedy shows within your vicinity? Just FYI [sic], this is what other teachers are up to when they are off duty https://www.teachersoffduty.com/. Shopping could be another fun activity now that time isn’t an issue. Splurge on yourself and it doesn’t have to cost ‘an arm and a leg’ to look professional, here’s a link if you appreciate shopping on a budget https://www.boredteachers.com/post/teacher-style-box-free.
Our local Artscape still has activities although they are slowly winding down. If you fancy theatre or want to improve your improv skills visit https://courtyardplayhouse.com/events/ and for other events https://magpie.ae/ will be a go-to if you are doing a staycation [sic] for a lineup of events around the UAE including Travor Noah’s show https://magpie.ae/event/trevor-noah-off-the-record/.
We knowww [sic], you are welcome😊.
Remember to make plenty of time to enjoy yourself. We cannot reiterate this enough!
And for the 'outliers' this summer (and rightly so, this could be your only free/available time for personal professional development- when you determine your learning, we applaud your efforts), for more details on previous course recordings, visit https://raktn.org/.
As expected, our sections are almost empty. The Q3 newsletter will be out in September with announcements that you will be pleased to learn about and participate in.
See you soon!
