20 Question Challenge for Teachers
Here’s a challenge for you: read and answer each of these 20 questions to find out some interesting things about yourself. Follow the facebook page and conversation – now, some of these are very intimate and some of the questions may be a bit too personal to post about. That’s okay.
These are for you. Whether you journal about them, talk it out with a friend, or simply mull over in your mind (perhaps with a good glass of wine…) it’s all up to you.
These 20 questions are meant for reflection, ponder, and/or meditation. You choose. Perhaps you’ll take each question and answer in your diary. You may want to answer all 20 in one sitting or tackle one per day. Perhaps you’ll pass on some, while taking much more time on others. Everyone is different.
Everyone will have different answers, different thoughts, and different emotions that may spring up. Take heart that those which “upend” you and bring the strongest emotions may be the ones that you may want to take more time on.
Again, everyone is different. Yet, you may want to have a plan in place when/if extremely strong reactions/passions/excitements surface. Perhaps take a walk, write it down, or meditate on it. Most of all, enjoy.

I hope you have an amazing day!
