    Share what makes your job stressful and discuss creative ways to handle stress at work with fellow educators. How do you create a positive environment for yourself and the children you work with?

    One of my biggest stress is adapting to unexpected changes in the daily routine. I’ve
    found creating a flexible schedule with built-in transition times helps
    ease the unpredictability.

    What makes my job stressful is parents who are in denial. When I come to them with an issue and they deny the issue. To make it less stressful for me, I remember that I can only control myself and control the environment I choose to be in. I do my best at work and take deep breaths when needed.

    Too much on my plate.

    To reduce stress on cutting paper, and decorating the classroom. I have parents volunteer to do the cutting paper and decorating the classroom. To help lower my stress more, I keep a planner/ calender handy to remind myself what order should get done first.
