Are you a teacher or childcare worker in n eed of a place to relax for a minute after a chaotic day? Working in a car eer that requires constant care for others can lead to &ldquo\;compassion fatigue\,&rdquo\; hurting a teacher&rsquo\;s effectiveness\, job satisfact ion\, and their personal well-being. Join fellow teachers for a twice-a-mo nth community space that prioritizes stress relief and burnout prevention. We will meet on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays\, alternating between two meetin g styles: silent book club and activity. During silent book club meetings\ , participants are encouraged to bring or borrow a book of their choice. W e will read until about 4:15\, and then we will open up the room for discu ssion-- whatever that discussion needs to be. Maybe it's about an awesome book you're reading\, or maybe it's tips for equitable grading or creating a more positive classroom dynamic! For an activity meeting\, we will do a relaxing craft or self-care activity together and chat freely.
\nTh is week will be silent book club! Tea\, light snacks\, cozy vibes\, book r ecommendations\, and encouragement will be provided.
\nTeachers\, st udent-teachers\, veteran teachers\, and care workers of all backgrounds an d experiences are welcome. Drop in as your schedule allows-- don&rsquo\;t worry about arriving late or leaving early.
