#teacher5daySlowChat

What is #teacher5adaySlowChat?

A week of well-being chat

Running from Sunday the 27.12.15 to Sunday the 3.1.16 what better way to finish your year than by thinking about your well-being and how you can recharge your batteries in preparation for the next term and beyond? #Teacher5adaySlowChat will involve a variety of teachers sharing their views and ideas about the importance of well-being to promote the debate and conversation supported by the good folk at @ScotEdChat.

Who is involved?

The eight educators below will share their ideas in a blog to be discussed each day. They will then start the conversations by posting a few questions during the course of the day based on their blog using the #teacher5adaySlowChat and #ScotEdChat hash tags.
