In this episode of Sunday Night Teacher Talk, CJ dives into how to reboot your classroom mid-year, the power of bringing in guest speakers (like Marvel’s Jeff Willis!), and what to do when you're starting to feel stuck or stale in the classroom.
He also unpacks how to handle school toxicity, prep for paternity leave, respond to student hardship, and balance journals/vocab without assigning homework. Whether you're navigating burnout, dreaming of launching a creative elective, or simply trying to stay ahead of your grading, this episode has real talk and encouragement for every educator.
