Summer Prep Series ☀️ Tip #1

Published 4 months ago • 1 min read

Hey Teacher Friends,

Happy Summer! ☀️ I hope you're settling into summer break mode!

Before we talk back-to-school prep, may I suggest taking a break! Read a book for fun, sleep in, take a trip, spend time with family, binge your favorite show, or simply enjoy not hearing the sound of a school bell for a while. You've earned it!

When you're ready, I'll be popping into your inbox throughout the summer with a few simple prep ideas that can help make August feel a little less overwhelming.

☀️ Summer Prep Tip #1: Order your favorite teacher planner and grab a copy of next year's school calendar.

This is always one of my favorite summer tasks. There's something satisfying about opening a fresh planner, pulling out the flair pens, and mapping out the year ahead. Bonus: it's an easy rainy-day project you can tackle from the couch while watching Netflix.

Getting your planner set up now means one less thing to worry about when back-to-school season arrives. At the very least, just order one!
