This week's episode focuses on taking control of your professional development! Teachers are the lead learners of their classroom and it's incredibly important to continue to grow as an educator. With the craziness of the 2020-2021 school year, no more than ever is it important to seek out online platforms and resources to better assist our students.

This week, I am asking you to search the hashtags on social media: #clearthelist, #clearthelists and #adoptaclassroom where you will be taken to links to teacher's Amazon Wish Lists. Also, please take a look at Adoptaclassroom.org or Donors Choose to see the needs that different teachers have where you can contribute. You can also message me on Instagram @tangibleteachingpodcast and I would be happy to send some links your way.

This week, I am asking you to search the hashtags on social media: #clearthelist, #clearthelists and #adoptaclassroom where you will be taken to links to teacher's Amazon Wish Lists.

As a teacher, we of course need to plan. Also as a teacher, we know that no matter how much we actually do plan, it's not necessarily going to go the way we want it to go (or plan it to go). BUT, we still need a place to put down all of our lessons. Today, I am taking a deep dive into many of the different planners out there--from the ones you get for free to the ones with all of the fluff, tabs, colors and organization your Type A heart desires. Planners mentioned in today's podcast: The "basic teacher planner" Teachers Pay Teachers Freebie by Coffee, Flair Pens and Kindness Top 3 Teachers Pay Teachers Planners of July 2020: One Stop Teacher Shop, Joey Udovich and A Modern Teacher The Happy Planner Planbook.com Erin Condren Plum Paper 4theloveofpi Blue Sky Educator Shout Out: @adventuresinkinder on Instagram!
