Thanks for being here Abigail
A1. Renewing my energy happens when I am not nec thinking about school e.g walking, gym, running Best ideas come then.
A1-Actually, this chat renews my energy and the good thing is I can be pretty much anywhere

Q1) What are the ways you renew your energy & where do you need to be to renew your energy? https://t.co/oyazn4nosR
A1 best way to renew energy is to seek out conversations with energising colleagues or have an incidental conversation with Ss
Q1: That is important to keep your goals as a teacher in mind, otherwise, I feel that it is easy to get lost in the process.
I'm still working on A1. I usually run like the energizer bunny used to and then I drop.
Hi all Stuart from Auckland, New Zealand. Great to be on deck.
Welcome Joanna - thanks for joining
A1 Energy renewal comes from nature watching leading 2 creativity/bursts of writing-need to be in zone/rest is essential.

Kindergarten friends are the best! Wouldn't you agree, ?? :-)
Good on you! I did a pump class just before this! On holiday
Great that you can join us.
A1. I try to dedicate one day a week where I focus on relaxing and enjoying family day. It is my 'cheat' work night
A1-Also relaxing at the beach and working out renews my energy
A1: I usually put music on with my headphones and find a nice comfortable place to relax and unwind
A1 - Do you find yourself able to leave schoolwork at school much?
Hi, Spiri. is my burst of positivity for the day.
A1) A good run, a nice walk, a beautiful sunset, some wine... or a white chocolate mocha & some quiet time at Starbucks 😊
A1 Also have tech-free time which is ironic considering this chat! https://t.co/ydHU53nYRt
A1 When on holiday, leave schoolwork at school and prioritise time with my family.

A1: Family & dog time, edcamp time, Barnes & Noble/Starbucks time, NY time, travel time. New experiences = super invigorating
Pinterest projects are always pretty renewing... and then you can just admire your creation :)
A1 Nice point Craig, often time with non-school people rise our performance when back in school IMO.
A1 Renewing my energy comes from my gym time and spending time with family. Be outside and playing with my husband and girls.
A1: exercise- love to run. Great way to de-stress and gain energy and balance. Spending time with people who support you too!
A1: A few good songs turned up to 11 will renew my energy and get me going again for the next day

That is so true as well. Surrounding ourselves with people who inspire us make us better in so many ways!
A1) i renew by changing physical space, meditation and breathing ex, having a quiet space with no distractions
There is something about embracing the creative side of things.
So important! Many new Ts struggle with this. It's OK to take a break, & clear your mind. :) https://t.co/GEduOCT4gY
A1 When on holiday, leave schoolwork at school and prioritise time with my family.
A1. Off to next week. i know that will renew energy
Great ideas! Same with me too

Nice post . Used to be cynical about meditation etc now a convert.
Nice post . Used to be cynical about meditation etc now a convert.
agree with this 100% spend time with the energisers & least amount of time with energy sappers
A1: umm, this works! Lots of catching up with my favourite people, spending time with the kid. Beach! https://t.co/bw2LSgesMZ
Hello... I am Karen in Auckland.. A1 - walks along the beach .. it helps me remember why i moved here.
thattttt sounds relaxing!
A1 unplugged - a brave move
I renew my energy with a few minutes of meditation before each class and laughing with my co-workers
A1: I jump on twitter and seek out inspiration! I get involved in twitter chats like this and connect/engage
I struggled with leaving the work at school today, but realized I needed to:)
So important. Off the digital grid to fully renew energy
Coffee and quiet time, essential!
A1 I find it relaxing and rejuvenating to go on a solo drive on the highway. Great time to think and give your mind a break
Thanks Ellen.I learn so much from you guys
A1: I need to ride my bike and get outside to clear my head. mum of little kids+teacher+introvert=need space to recharge
Good point. Teaching needs to be seen as marathon and not a sprint.
This is so true! Embracing the creative side of things is crucial to me as well
- time alone? Is that a thing? https://t.co/pdFro5yhRa
A1: I love to go to the gym after I finish my day. It gets me pumped up and excited for the next day. I also need time alone
A1) in teaching my students in schools/uni could take themselves to a quiet space in our room when they needed to 'pause'
That's awesome that you're diving into the world on twitter! You picked a good one! https://t.co/D67WUj5068
Hi! I am a preservice teacher and this is my 1st twitter chat! So excited to learn from you all!

It cracks me up when I meet NC people at . Too cool:)
No distractions when the email is switched off.
A1: I'll lock myself in my office and put on some tunes for a few minutes
It is harder when everything is online. takes discipline IMO.
Believe it's the storyteller in us. That process of making sense & fitting experience into stories=vital

Q2 coming up in 1 minute ………..
Chris, rdg spec, coming in late from PA in the states.
I put my PD reading on hold too much and decided to make that a priority. You're so right.
Yes, it's often when the wrong turns are taken, the journey is more significant.
Well that's a discipline that I haven't managed I'm always looking for another angle...
A1 Through books and discussions
yes we did! Great discussion about spaces to allow creative process to pause or grow...we inspired eachother
A1 Yes for fitness. My yoga class today gave me a quick fix of energy.
Yes, true :-) I love to tell stories in 3D virtual worlds.
That has helped me. It is fun to connect with others who inspire you.
Morning Stuart. I agree. It takes huge discipline when our world these days is mostly digital
BE HONEST PEOPLE. A1

Scott from Illinois. A1: I guess I'll be the broken record, but reading is how I renew my energy. I run, but it's a love/hate

Hello Faige retired kinder teacher from Los Angeles. Just back from a wonderful 2weeks with grandkids.
A2: My most productive time is during discussions with my peers on lessons. Collaborative input inspires me to persist

I've tried to have more fun too and step away from the serious side of leadership sometimes
Wow, that's a lot of grades:)

Good point. I do make sure when not at school to turn off school notifications.
Welcome to global Joanna.
NOTE to Self. They are NOT wrong turns if we learn from them.
Collaborative input is energising.
love global pln .. more people to steal ideas from!! ..
A2 When I come back after a break then anything seems possible... at first....
community is so important!! Just visited your website and I loved it. Thank you for sharing!
You are good. I struggle with that
A1 cont: A nice cigar always does the trick
A1. Discovered that walks are my happy place when too much energy, uncertainty & life overwhelms
Same here, it's the thoughts that count!
I'm SOOOOO looking forward to it! It's been too long!
Think of "renewing energy" as medicine prescribed by doctor to make important if want to make retirement A1
How about we call them... varying paths... the road less traveled :-)
A2: times when i feel rested; when i am excited abt a creative lesson.
Well that's braver than me Stuart
A2: when I learned something new and was excited to get back to my classroom and students and put it into action.😊

Q2 When are the times that you find you have a lot of energy as a teacher & are most productive? https://t.co/cYPAB7QJiZ
A2: Whenever I have time to collaborate with colleagues either face-to-face or online. The interactions make energy!
Out of sight, sound, out of mind. took a while to get used to.
A2: Working with Ss. Seeing how excited they are and their smiles. Really motivates me.
A1) I love to just sit back and watch some tv with coffee
It would be great to keep this can do attitude constant throughout the term.
A2: The beginning of the year - this is always the most exciting time - the challenge is to sustain this throughout the year
A2 I'm most productive early in the morning before the sun comes up. I feel like I'm getting ahead on my day
A1.As you leave school drop an imaginary pebble into the water and watch the ripples dwindle into the distance.Get your life
A2: So glad this was asked! Super energetic in the morning, get less so as the day goes on but better this yr
Very powerful for destressing, btw so is hot chocolate.
I have books in every corner of my home:) Swimming is my thing. Nice to meet you.
I commute 30 minutes each way every day which is great think time!
A2 middle of a project, kids are all getting on and i am like a magic fly round the room. One to one with students.
A2 Collaborative environments where Ss are actively involved with learning allow time to fly by.
is now trending in USA, ranking 45
A2: working with a group that love what they are doing. Today I worked with our broadcast group & they were buzzing, as was I
It really has. We need to make it a regular thing. you too!
A2: My energy comes when my students or myself are passionate about something (anything!) in the classroom
A2: Yes I think its an art to manage it - I look at some people and cant imagine how they do the work
Sounds like a quick energy boost for sure, Faige.
Action on new ideas embeds them into practice, well done.
A2 early morning on a weekend.. i get most of my most productive "out of school time" stuff done then
A2-I am always better in the am!
A2: When I'm in "The Flow" I'm productive. In my latest podcast I talk about 3 Ways To Be Productive https://t.co/ohFf8xcfuu
A2: I have a support position, so whenever I have a chance to help someone. It feels rewarding to know I helped.
A2 No question, it's when I'm in m classroom with my students.
I need to try that and be ore disciplined
A2) I feel like I do best at the beginning and end of the week. The middle days tend to be the most challenging.
Q2: I feel that when students are engaged in the lesson, which usually happens during group work or some sort of projects.
I agree. anytime outside in quiet works for me.
A2) I'm most energetic in the afternoon! I've had time to wake up
Yes, I have the same. So great to catch up on reading etc
A2 Very productive a.m. or early p.m. 3-5 pm best for tidying or minimal cognitive load - usually when most meetings happen...
Is hard. You are often expected to be on-call 24/7.
Thanks for the follow - great to connect with other educators thanks to and

and seeing these connections have life long benefits.
I def will try this. sounds wonderful!
A2: Whenever I learn something new on twitter I get excited & the next day I share my excitement with anyone & everyone
A2) I would say on a Friday in the morning when I'm most awake and ready to start the day!
You're right about that. I used an idea from a teammate today. The kids loved it.
I am sometimes (literally to with the alarms at school going off its me who responds...)
Great post Sharrell and I'd only add in fully hydrated.
a2. I find I have the most energy and passion after attending a conference or edcamp.
A2: When I'm excited about a lesson and can't wait to share it with my students
A2) Usually early morning, and again at night when everyone is asleep...get my best ideas then … https://t.co/SEZfQWf66R
Glad it's not just me that moves quickly when I teach!
A2 - sitting with colleagues.. staffroom / PD / conferences ... ideas flowing faster than i can make notes...
A2 When I get to sub. Found time w/students various age & grades reminds me how much I love time w/Sts & colleagues
That makes it tough to have a break.
A2: definitely wasn't at the end of T2, but usually the first 9 weeks of each term.
Hey there You should blog about this. Bet road rage due to traffic would decrease. A1 https://t.co/f657rv5xEE
I commute 30 minutes each way every day which is great think time!
Yes those moments are just magic.
It is always such an honor seeing everyone connect and collaborate on Twitter through & other chats - gives me warm fuzzies!!!
I like this too. Get so involved that it's almost disappointing when it ends.
Just popped in from Boston- it's been a while. Hello &
Hi, Spiri! Our Phillies need some joy at the end of this season. Nice to see you both:)
The end is just about holding on staying sane!
No problem! Thanks for checking it out and I hope you find it useful :)
hey buddy! So good to see you here
I struggle with being productive on Fridays. Wish I could steal some of that productivity
A1 taking a walk, shopping☺️, family time and me time!
i never seem to sit still. I thought i was doing something wrong!!...lol
Same here, tried to use Google Keep but not natural. A2
Same here, tried to use Google Keep but not natural. A2
Come swimming with me tomorrow after school:). Our Phillies need some joy to end this season.
A2 when planning I have loads of energy and enthusiasm. I'm most productive when my kids are asleep ;)
Great answer Karen, I often get a 'comedown' after those moments when I realize what I can do
A2: When I feel like I have truly made a difference.
A2 mornings are always best for me! I need to keep moving and making lists!!
Q2: I have the most energy when I can see the big picture of the semester, instead of getting stuck in the process.
A2 When a student asks a question that can't be Googled. You just KNOW a rich discussion is approaching.
So many amazing idea on how and when we feel energised
Q2) anytime, need 'space' in between, im a 20/7 juggler so it's iterate energy. Collabs w like minds inspire energy
I was so excited after this past weekend. I could use weekends like that every month.
Love it Shanez - our hashtag is - don't want others to miss out on your amazing tweets https://t.co/XbAww5kPA2
that's true when the kids get excited I enjoy it too but it means I have to be excited about it first
A2 best ideas often happen away from usual work space - outside, market, shop, travelling
A2 Also when students are leading and in control of the learning and I'm a mere passenger.
same here. I love making lists! Nothing motivates me more than crossing things off a list.
Q2.AM is my most productive time daily.From 2 pm Friday the phone is off and its the weekend
A2: I have the most energy throughout the morning. Most productive in the 2 hours after school.
Love your answer to this question.
What is productive? I find if I am in my creative flow, following what feels right, what moves things forward I hum along.
you cant do this job in a bubble. Debugging about the bad stuff and nicking the good stuff is essentail
A1 I attend twitter chats
would love to if not just to escape the cool weather.
It is the frosting on my school week cupcake:)
I'm super-pumped when I come in prepared. Lessons ready. Attitude shield ready. Woke up on time, check.
A2 I'm at my best after a good night's sleep
Just crossing out items on my list today and yes it gives me a sense of relief.
Hi Kevin :-) Glad you could make it.
Q3 coming up in 1 minute ………..
A2. My body is programmed to be 'on' when Ss are in the building. When they leave, I then 'crash'
A2 I get a lot of motivation listening to my favorite radio show in the morning as I get ready to start my day.
Completely agree - I think thats why I find Twitter and chats like exceptional - makes me connected...
Glad you enjoyed the conference :)
I figure that I can use all of that non sleeping time to my advantage. Just bought 5 new books to read.
good skill for too via list plan https://t.co/NXLSJ5WwUu
same here. I love making lists! Nothing motivates me more than crossing things off a list.
A2.1:when you're having a great & insightful,spur of the moment conversation w/Ss that goes beyond anything you could think of!
In the zone! Love those days!
preparation is an essential element.
I've seen Karen teach Ian and been in her classroom - everyone in NZ knows everyone else
It is possible to have weekends like that, every month.
A2: As a former elementary guy am is best for me :)
You sleep? What's that like?
A2 I'm not too sure about this either. I really must need to stop and reflect. Maybe next summer ....
Q3) Who are the people who have inspired you & how have they opened your mind? Tag them now https://t.co/S5G2HOxJQ9
Great question Jena! I think being productive can be diff for many people!

A3: & are my biggest inspirations! Collaborating with peers and higher education professors!
Mark here, A2: When I have a really well prepared lesson on something I really know and want to share...I get in the zone!!!
That's enough to keep the energy going all day!!

I hear ya! I have such good intentions but when the Ss leave, so do I!! Make the most during the day!
Put the mid August series on your calendar against the Mets. I think it's 8/10-8/13. I'm trying to do Red Sox, 2.

A3: Dr. Larry Creedon because at 83 he was still learning & excited to learn & share.
Love Google Task and also Google Keep - that's my daily saviour
A2 New opportunities for training and development may create curiosity and energy through play.
Paper work, lesson planning, etc productive best very early morning hours week& weekend Needed to rest mind after long day A2
A3: I was inspired by many of my teachers but continually inspired by my peers and my students
That's great to hear, a former principal expected us to stay forever!
A2 Hands down when I am with my students!!! My favorite, most energized part of teaching - THE KIDS!!!
I think only Ts can understand that. https://t.co/BkED0tW8s7
A2. My body is programmed to be 'on' when Ss are in the building. When they leave, I then 'crash'
A3 My PLN, too many to tag! plus I have amazing colleagues,
essential!!!.. i try bribing chocolate out of the kids all the time,,, ha ha
A3: Always inspire me to do better
A3: Too many to name - not all of them are on twitter but all of my past Principals have inspired me by showing me how to lead
Haha!! Maybe...in the wrong context!!
A3 Most of the time they are my colleagues, there is always a person in the team or I have been blessed to find them around
MY biggest inspirations are my students and my awesome PLN and anyone prepared to share online. A3
Q3: Definitely a few of my profs here at college have inspired me to aspire to being a great teacher. Also,
Haha, I'm actually a principal now. I think our Ts see me 'crashing' in PM PD
I used to before my son was born, now I prioritize!
A3: Leo - my old principal now happily retired trained me well for my years at the helm.
What a great ? Not too many but so many & in recent years wonderful educators in my PLN pushing my th… https://t.co/BnaZmIsF01
Q3) Who are the people who have inspired you & how have they opened your mind? Tag them now https://t.co/S5G2HOxJQ9
Not at all were old friends from way back. I used to live and teach in the area
A3: Yes, I'd have to include my PLN on Twitter as well. Too many people to mention, but all amazing.
A3 inspired me to become an educator and showed me that anything is possible with an open mind
a3. has inspired me to be physically fit and has inspired to pay attention to way my brain works.
A3 double dipping! I'm inspired by educators who share, collaborate, encourage me to do more, be better, being one

Should be seen as essential part of the job now IMO.
Q3) our interview yest was awesome, a flow of inspiration! U really inspired my thinking about spaces in schools
A3) I'm most inspired by my professors and teachers who encouraged me to want to become a teacher
A3 He's hardworking, innovative & inspiring

A3 is a huge inspiration. He showed me how to get excited about the content we aren't super passionate about
A4 I have to make it! Other things can wait, but time with my family cannot!!
A4: I lock down times for myself - I do this every day! Could be as simple as listening to a podcast & walking home by myself
A4: One day of the weekend is mine. No little people, just mine to disappear and do 'me' things. Oh and the hours of 3-4am!
Believe it's art & should be rewarded as such. Think of the amazing skills need. Not just subject matter expertise
Was about to ask the same question
A3 Definitely inspires me! works and makes sense when following his framework
A4: Prioritise my tasks, try to maintain a work life balance. Breathe my way through the third space to maintain calm

Great post, teaching needs to be balanced and kept in perspective. A4
A2 1/2 when I had work/life balance, which involves clean eating, lots of sleep and exercise outside of school
a few of these are on my list too
A4: I recently have started walking after the kids are asleep. Very quiet and peaceful time to do so. Have to make the time!
ON holiday, so all is awesome!
A4. Time out with family and friends
A4 taken up giant walks this year, and karate .. making things always relaxes me.. but that comes from being a tech teacher.
A4:Playing music forces you to renew yourself. I used to find my 3rd space in performance, but now I find it in giving lessons
Strength and growth in numbers!
we have a life that needs to include other areas
A2 2/2 Balance was always easier at the start of term and harder to maintain as each term progressed though!!
A4 took myself of fb for a few weeks! I also make the spaces ready in order to energise when needed, pre org a must
A4. I have found writing to be very reflective and therapeutic
A4 B/c I love what I do! If I get "3rd space" I'd say thru collab & learning always in an imagination… https://t.co/N8gdP9erga
Q4) How do you find the time to renew yourself & what are the ways you can apply the “Third Space”? https://t.co/DjDUg9OSDx
Excellent point. When we realise this, it can only make us better teachers IMO.
A4: I seek inspiration and energy from those around me - my daughter's smile brightens up my world
A4: Sometimes I need to just disconnect and go for a good workout. Logging also works for me..whenever I take the time 😣
A4 need to include these in whatever space one can obtain

A4: Family and good friends. Keep school relationship-focused
A4) I look to thse aorund me to keep my spirtits high
A4: committed to tennis every other weekend & that will help. Trying also to get a balance betw activities I love.

A4 3rd space w uni colleagues is hard, there needs to be a shared vision on its value...my PhD research
A4: Listening to music and traveling
Nice post. Important to be surrounded by positive, healthy people. A4
A4 Renew yourself daily with a cup of tea or a chat with a friend. Any place can be a just change your mindset
A4 Luckily I have an amazing husband who agrees I am a better person when I get gym time😆 so he helps me with find time.
A3 feel lucky to have worked with so many inspirational colleagues! Also inspired by great educational researchers
A4) spending some time in prayer in the afternoon.
Spending time w/ Ss rejuvenates me. Ie: Just listened to Podcast on Dialogue Journals, so powerful had to try
A4 .. loosing myself in a complete load of nonsense... great
Still gotta meet for coffee 😊
Each time I watch it I feel as though I have permission to take a breathe and just pause.
A4 reflection is always the antidote for me. What I did wrong, watch for, what I did right, apply & repeat. Get better at it.

Physical Fitness is so Important! My son's preK has a gym (for adults), and I work out almost everyday
A4: I find writing during my third space time provides a renewal and also produces great notes to go over again later.
A3 they opened my mind by sharing awesome and practical strategies which Ss love to do and I love to use
A4: mmm ... will quote a wise man at a staff reflection last year: "Don't say 'I don't have time'; say 'It's not a priority'"
A4 Taking time away from tech to 'smell the roses' (by which I mean spend quality time w my husband n dogs). Notice life!
A4 Find and meet deadlines for PD projects. Your own deadlines can propel you to new growth.& don't forget Twitter
A4 Love the photo and thought!
A4 a 'debrief buddy' at work is helpful keeping certain times at home free from work & always having a good book to read
A4: I also feel renewed when I talk with the people I work with. Comforting
You're right about that Jena. We do need a wall:)
Love finding quotes that resonate 4 me then creating art to go with them & sharing with others - create waves of good vibes
