Professional Growth Plan Spring 2020

Area of Focus:

1. Launch Home Growin’ (online outdoor education platform built with Kyleen) with at least 5 full lesson plans and receive feedback from at least 3 parents and students

2. Stay connected to the graduate community through zoom and phone calls

3. Practice yoga 4 days a week

Rationale:

1. Continue to grow professionally and give my schoolwork a purpose outside of academics. Provide outdoor education tools for parents teaching from home during quarantine and beyond

2. Community is important whether or not we are physically together and I want to stay connected to the graduate community outside of classes so that we can continue to support each other

3. Yoga has helped keep me physically and mentally grounded. It is something I have always wanted to practice consistently, and I want to hold myself accountable this quarter because I know it will help me during quarantine

Activities:

1. I will work with Kyleen on the Home Growin’ project to build a professional platform for sharing outdoor education tools and lessons. Content will be reviewed by each other, our sisters (professional marketers), and Ray (for class)

2. Connect with the graduate community at least once a week through Zoom to hang out outside of class time and check in with them about life outside of academics

3. Choose an online class (Core Power Yoga, Yoga with Adrianne, etc) 4 days a week

Evidence:

1. Online website posted by the end of the quarter with at least 5 complete lesson plans

2. Have weekly graduate meetings marked on my calendar

3. Circle days on my calendar 4 days a week when I practice yoga on as evidence of completion
