Looking Back: Reflections and Realizations

How are you going to speak about the year 2020? There has been so much that has occurred this year. It can be challenging to synthesize how to articulate our feelings, thoughts, and moments from this year. 

As I begin to reflect, I wanted to recontextualize the year and provide some opportunities for us to talk a moment to reflect and dig into our realizations. 

If we speak our realizations, we can learn and grow from them.

If we share our realizations, we can grow stronger in community and allow ourselves to connect with others. 

  • What is one way you have grown during the past year?
  • Who have you been able to lean on for support during the past year?
  • What has been a new learning for this year?
  • What is something you have accomplished this year that surprised you?
  • What is a compliment that you can bestow upon yourself for this year? 
  • What is a new awareness or learning from you from this year that you will take with you into the new year?
  • What is something that challenged you but allowed for moments of growth this year?

I encourage all of us to take a moment to reflect and celebrate our realizations. Feel free to share with your buildings, districts, and families. Embrace the pause, take a moment, and look back on the year that was 2020.
