In this video, I’m bringing you along for a realistic, chaotic-but-productive week in my life as a third grade teacher in Maine—while also being a mom to my toddler and baby boy. I’m sharing the behind-the-scenes of what it actually looks like to juggle teaching, home life, and all the in-between moments where things don’t go as planned. Some days I feel super on top of it, and other days I’m just doing my best to keep the train moving—and I know so many of you can relate. I also talk about the mindset piece of productivity, because for me it’s not always about doing everything—it’s about doing what matters most in the season I’m in. If you’re looking for teacher-mom encouragement, realistic routines, and that “okay, it’s not just me” feeling, this week-in-my-life vlog is for you. And if you want to see more teacher vlogs with specific topics (like stations, writing, morning routines, or science of reading), I share how you can tell me what you’d like next.
