Everyone is looking towards April vacation, students, teachers, principles, and parents. Some parents will take students out of school for a family vacation leaving mid week to get better rates. This is a week that will require good planning, flexibility, and a lot of patience.

Some years Good Friday will fall during this week so it will be a four day week. Testing is sometimes an option for teachers, however, attendance should be a key factor with this. If several students will miss the assessment, it will make for a more challenging return from vacation for the teacher. We strongly recommend the teachers have a solid transitional back to school lesson plan for the first day after break. Paragraph

Teachers also should have an eye on vacation. Some may be vacationing, family and friends. Others hope to spend the week outside doing yard work and catching up on house chores. Others may choose to have a staycation and treat the week like you are visiting as a tourist, enjoy some meals out, and just clear your mind. Paragraph it is also an opportunity to do some enrichment activities. Look at account events. Create a PowerPoint. Watch a movie related to your content. Each teacher has their own style and there is no right way to approach it during vacation week. Do what you are most comfortable with.
