You guys asked for more “days in the life” this summer, so in this video I’m taking you along with me for a super realistic summer routine. It’s still very much teacher-life, even when I’m not in my classroom—think running errands, knocking out the little to-dos that pile up during the school year, and just having a normal day where I’m trying to be productive but also enjoy the slower pace of summer. I also share a few of the resources and places you can find what I’m using for classroom life (like my classroom wishlist, Amazon storefront, and my Teachers Pay Teachers store) if you’re in that planning mode already. And because I’m me, we’re mixing in real life too—like the manicotti recipe I included, because easy, comforting meals are a must when life is busy. If you’re an elementary teacher who likes routine, practical ideas, and a little “hang out with me” energy, this one’s for you.
