Top 10 New Year Resolutions for Teachers

Welcome, my fellow educators! As the bell chimes midnight and the confetti settles, it’s typical to take a moment to reflect on the past year and start scribbling down those aspirational New Year’s resolutions. But let’s be honest, aren’t most of the resolutions dust-bitten by February?

Well, have no fear because this year will be different! Here are the top 10 New Year resolutions for teachers, mixed with a good dash of humor, to make our year more joyous, fruitful, and less stressful (we can always hope, right?).

1. Embrace Mistakes… Like a Boss!

Let’s begin with a collective sigh of relief: it’s okay to make mistakes. Teaching isn’t about being a scripted robot. Don’t let those lesser-than-perfect moments steal your peace. Get comfortable admitting when you’re wrong. Students respect authenticity

6 Funnies on embracing mistakes:

  • Embracing mistakes is like getting lost in a maze – frustrating at first, but when you finally find your way out, you’ve got a story to tell and a few extra survival skills.
  • Mistakes are like the autograph of experience – sometimes messy, but they make your life’s book more interesting.
  • Mistakes are the rough drafts of success. And let’s face it, we’ve all seen some really, really rough drafts.
  • Embracing mistakes is like cooking without a recipe; sometimes it’s a mess, but other times it’s a happy accident – like discovering a new dish accidentally.
  • Mistakes are proof that you’re trying. Think of them as your quirky attempts at mastering this grand adventure called life.
  • Emphasize the importance of learning from mistakes. Might as well turn those “oops” into “ahas”!

2. Keep Calm and Stay Organized

Who hasn’t lost a pen (or 10) in the frantic whirlwind of Monday mornings? Bid adieu to the panic by resolving to be more organized. Keep your workspace tidy. Your desk is a reflection of your mind.

  • Staying calm in chaos is like being the Zen master in a room full of squirrels on energy drinks – chaotic, but you’re the beacon of peace.
  • Keeping calm during a storm is the real-life version of that ‘remain seated’ message during a roller coaster – challenging, but you’ll come out of it with your hair intact.
  • Staying calm in tough times is akin to trying to keep a straight face in a room full of giggling cats – a tough job, but your composure is priceless.
  • Remaining calm in difficult situations is like trying not to laugh during a serious meeting. It’s hard, but if you can pull it off, you’re a master of self-control.
