It's officially the 467th day of January and I just wanted to give everyone a shout out for making it this far 😂

You can do hard things! (Thanks @shop.callie.danielle , I've got this in the mug version too!) Even though it's hard, we've got this!

So, what hard thing can I cheer you through today?

(This is totally not me procrastinating grading chem labs and tests... Definitely not 🙃. That's the "hard stuff" I need to get through haha)

Feet up THURSDAY because Thursday is the new Frida

Feet up THURSDAY because Thursday is the new Friday.

Here's what I mean:

We always try to put ourselves in the best position to start the next week. We want the room cleaned, copies and plans made, and grading to not haunt our valuable weekend time.

But we hit Friday and we just want to be D.O.N.E.

So, I propose Thriday. A combo of Friday tasks completed on a Thursday so we don't waste a good Friday feeling on the things we are ready to step away from.

Things I do on my Thriday:
-update my Google unit plan for the next week
-find/make worksheets and copies
-clean my classroom
-grade as much as possible (but this is the one task I'll roll over into Friday to still save the weekend)

If I have time, I'll file papers or plan ahead to make everything flow so smoothly even pre-spring break.

What's something you'd add to your Thriday task list?!

Raise your hand if you've struggled with focusing

Raise your hand if you've struggled with focusing while on your prep period 🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️

It's the time of year, the stress, and the possible lost planning time that really cause me to lose focus, but I'm also trying to desperately leave work at work...

What's a teacher to do?

⭐Block Schedule at School⭐

Just like a block schedule at home, I give my different chunks of school time a focus and short task list.

This allows me to fit in small tasks at each part of the day so a big chunk of my giant list gets done!

I laminated my list so I can use dry erase markers to wipe off the previous days accomplishments and start over.

Best part, I almost always get it done. Something about a short list is just so motivating and seems so easy to tackle.

I've got my version as a freebie, link in bio, or comment below!

Didn't think I'd let you set those resolutions wit

Didn't think I'd let you set those resolutions without some help, did you?!

Now, I'm not a fan of New Years Resolutions, but I totally understand the appeal of a "January Fresh Start" so let's tackle it together!

First of all, set a goal, not a resolution. It's a simple change, but mentally it's easier to get off track with a goal and jump back on!
