Whether it's the beginning of the school year, the middle of the school year, the end of the school year, or any of the many days in between, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and get teacher fatigue.

TEACHER FATIGUE!!! It's a real thing, y'all!!
I experienced MANY years of it myself. But what if I told you that it didn't have to be like that?
TRUTH!!
I refined my kind of teaching through the years and each year got better and better.
Yes, it involves learning tips and tricks and tweaking those to fit your style and your life, but it CAN happen!
Recently, I sent out a survey to my e-mail subscribers asking them this question, "What do you struggle with about leaving school each day on time?"

The number one answer was planning/prepping.
Not far behind was paperwork and grading.
There are ways to implement and maintain a level of readiness and preparedness in your classroom. You have to be willing to sometimes say no, close your door, and put those blinders on to be able to walk out that door each afternoon.
Over the next few weeks, I'll be sharing a series of blog posts of ideas and tips that have been tried and tested. You can use them immediately in your classroom!
Read this blog post to see what a typical day for you can look like when you can leave your classroom on time each day simply by implementing a few "work smarter, not harder" techniques.
WARNING: Implementing all of these ideas in your classroom will have the following side effects:
- leaving your classroom on time each day
- staying prepared and “on top of things” all year
- your classroom running like a well-oiled machine
- stress-free days
- more time for yourself and your family
- free time in the evenings and on weekends
- time to do the things you enjoy out of school
- restful sleep
