3 Implementation Action Plan The researcher would start the weekly Google Forms to collect teachers' perceptions on their burnout these forms would have weekly reminders and the teachers will be given time to complete them at the end of their contract week. Continuing these forms at the end of each school week the researcher would also do ethnographic interviews at the end of each trimester. The ethnographic interviews will take place during contracted meeting times. After a year of collecting this data, it would continue into the next school year in much the same way. Along with continuing to collect data, the teachers would also start professional development on how to be more resilient. These trainings would take place at four-week intervals during contracted meeting times and be accompanied by support groups, journal prompts, as well as support such as readings, videos, and podcasts that teachers in the study will have access to at their leisure. Communication Plans To start the researcher would have to go to the school board for permission to collect data from teachers willing to participate. After receiving permission the school board would have to grant the researcher time within the teacher's contracted day to not lead to more burnout because of increased workload. The permission would also have to go through the elementary school leader and the union. After the two-year study is completed the research would bring the data collected and ask the school board to add it to their agenda. If it was then added to the agenda, it would be presented to the board through graphics made from the data collected. After presenting, the room would then be opened up the room for questions and clarifications. It would be done in this way so that the members of the board would have time to look things over beforehand to prepare. The

9 the study will be provided professional development on resilience training throughout the school year. teachers will participate in the professional development. ; the researcher's collecting data, professional development will be provided during contracted meeting times throughout the school year at regular intervals of every 4 weeks. Resources such as books, podcasts, and videos will be shared for teachers to look at at their leisure. teachers through Google Forms to determine if they are feeling supported, and more resilient, and how else they would like to be supported through what they have learned. Early childhood teachers who are participating in the study will be asked to report on their feelings of burnout. Participating early childhood teachers will participate in the reporting. ; the researcher The teachers will fill out their feelings on a ranking scale via Google Forms at the end of each school week for one whole school year. Teachers will be given a reminder and time at the end of their contract day to fill out this form. Collect the data received and put it into graphs to see the trends on how often teachers are feeling burnt out and compare it to prior results from before training and support were given. Baseline data will need to be collected, including the ethnographic interviews. An initial ethnographic interview will be conducted during the first year of data collection at the end of each trimester. And then again at the same intervals the following year. Participating teachers will be interviewed throughout The researcher will collect data from the participating classroom teachers. The researcher will conduct the interviews with the classroom teachers. Baseline data will be collected before teachers begin professional development on resilience. Interviews will be conducted at the end of each Notetaking device to record interview questions and answers. The collected data will be put into a visual format using Google tools. The researcher will take detailed notes throughout the interviews to later analyze.
