week 13 post 3

This week was interesting because it showed me something I had never really thought about which is how teachers felt. When I thought of the grand scheme of things I figured out that the one thing I didn 't read enough about was the health and well being of teachers. When teachers are doing poorly it has. a ripple effect on their students and so I feel like learning about this was very informational.
       My questions are how many teachers at roosevelt feel this way? and what do my roosevelt teachers who feel this way, attribute this discontent to?

Week 14 post 1 Four Ways to Calm Your Mind in Stressful Times BY EMMA SEPPALA In the work world, around 50 percent of people are burned out in industries like health care , banking , and nonprofits , and employers spend $300 billion per year on workplace-related stress. In response, we just keep on pushing through, surviving on adrenaline. We overschedule ourselves; we drink another coffee; we respond to one more email. If we stay amped up all the time, we think, we’ll eventually be able to get things done. A stressed mind vs. a calm mind Stress was never meant to be a 24/7 experience.
