Routines That Save You When the Chaos Hits
Description
Ever feel like juggling multiple preps in secondary teaching just means more chaos and less control?
Trust me, I’ve been there! In this episode, I’m sharing the exact routines that have saved my sanity (and helped dozens of teachers I’ve coached) when everything goes sideways—no Pinterest-perfect solutions, just real strategies like sustainable planning period rituals, bell ringers YOUR brain actually benefits from, and a simple midweek feedback system that actually helps.
If you’re tired of overwhelming to-do lists and searching for routines that genuinely work for busy secondary teachers, especially those with multiple subjects, this is the practical starting point you need to thrive all year long.
