That "first day of school" feeling can be pretty overwhelming.
It's a mix of excitement, nerves, and anticipation.
As a student, starting new classes with new people can feel like a lot.
And as a teacher, the unknown of what your classes are going to be like can be pretty stressful too.
A few tips for this school year:
- The soothing motion of spinning a fidget ring can help you calm down and helps you bring your best self to the classroom every day
- Fidgeting with your ring can help you keep your hands busy when you feel overwhelmed
- Your fidget ring can also help you focus when you're learning or taking an exam because it helps you channel some of that excess energy
- Always having a grounding tool with you can help increase confidence because you know that no matter what happens, you can manage the stress
- Get a planner and actually write down all deadlines and important dates so you know what's coming up
- Take care of your body: stay hydrated and limit caffeine
We hope this is your best school year yet!
