When we approach our lessons we have a million things to consider already. But it is important to focus on more than just content. There are so many other elements of the job that can seem overwhelming at times, but can additionally be the most rewarding for our students. I will cover six different but equally important elements to help you when planning your lessons for the future. If you're anything like me you might realize that each of these elements will actually help you plan instead of hindering you from covering the material you need to. By learning about each of these different elements I feel inspired and challenged to create a safer, more holistic, and creative environment for my students, and I hope you will feel the same.
