Thanks for the template! Don't forget to plan to relax and have downtime, too often I book myself up, then end up doing nothing because it's too much.
In Spain we can't plan our lessons at school, we are always teaching. We might get 30 min max. for that if we are lucky. That means most things must be planned at home. I don't even have the time to print the worksheets I need, so I usually need to arrive to school early or leave late. I am sacrificing too much of my personal life to make my lessons worthy for the kids. When I saw that you get 4 hours a week at work for planning I went nuts. Thanks for the video
I work in a small title one school and not only do elementary teachers not get planning periods, sometimes we don't get a lunch break; I eat lunch with my kids. I'm so jealous of her schedule!
THANK YOU MICHELLE!! Such a fantastic video to start off the new year. So concise and helpful for time poor teachers (like myself) and it was so helpful to divide up things, colour code and how to prioritise. 2022 is the year for me to make changes, reset and schedule my time a lot better. Hope you’ve had a wonderful start to 2022 and looking forward to more videos to come this year! 🥰🥳
I love this! not only will it help me balance out my school and personal time, but I am hoping to use this to be productive during the summer too. Thank you!!
Thank you for this! It's extra motivating to fill a blank template with time-possibilities! Happy New Year!
This is so great. I was beginning to have such anxiety about starting the new year and not really having a plan. Thank you so much! I feel like your video was divinely placed in my life right on time. I hope you have a Wonderfull 2022. Continue to be blessed and be a blessing to others! Michelle, YOU ROCK!
I am the same way Crystal... I HAVE to have a plan or else I feel stressed! I'm so happy this resonated with you! Thank you for watching and I hope you have a wonderful year ahead! 🎉
Thank you! I am a retired educator that enjoys subbing several times per week. My time working is the easiest to schedule, getting other things done is my challenge. I use a bullet journal, but this will help create an overall plan to see where I am (or not) spending my time and what I need to adjust. My plan is to select a project then use the schedule to plug in the time to get it done...instead of just hoping to find the time!
This is the perfect video to start off the New Year!! I love the clear process you outline for managing time. Happy New Year!
Aww, thank you Amanda! I really appreciate it! Happy New Year to you! 🖤
This is a great video for ways to merge work and home. Thanks so much for continuing to support my organization journey! 😀
Yesss! I'm so happy it was helpful for you! Thank YOU for watching! 🖤
Love how you gave explicit instructions on HOW to prioritize your items! Thanks, Michelle.
I'm happy that was helpful! I know how difficult it can be to prioritize... especially when you have a lot going on! You're so welcome Ann! 🖤
Every time I learn something new from you. You are the BEST!
This is the best way to start the New Year! I’m having to adjust mine so often because I’m in a world where everything is changing because of COVID-19! Your tips are helping me so much and keep up the awesome work!
Yesss! It's definitely a "best practice" to reevaluate your schedule when something changes so you can make it work with the changes. I know it's difficult to do that often but hopefully this helps make it a little bit easier for you Russell!
thank you so much MIchelle... happy new year to you...
This will allow me to project this for my students, so they can see our daily schedule and help with transitions. So grateful for your tips!
Such a good idea!
Thank you ever so much! Happy New Year!
Love this! Thank you for sharing!
Well done and so helpful! Thanks, Michelle!
Thank you so much for putting this together! Super helpful. Happy New Year!
Ahh you are very welcome Felisha! I'm so happy you found it helpful! Happy New Year to you as well! 🎉
I love your product you made. Already got it to my drive. I put when I typically work, I balance my alone time along with spending time with family. Thank you Michelle! I woke up this morning and was going to create something like this! I'm glad our minds click sometimes.
I'm so happy this was timely for you Trevor! Best of luck to you as you create your schedule! 🎉
Thank you so much for your generosity..
This is the perfect way to start off the new year. Happy New Years
Oh!!! I just love your channel. I love your tips, your tutorials, and your ideas! The Office clips just make everything better, too!!
I didn't think I needed this, but after trying the weekly plan, I think I do. It helped me schedule the things I don't feel like doing as well as those I do. Seeing it written out makes it less overwhelming of a task.
Yes! I'm with you! It's one of those things that makes a BIG difference once you actually do it. I'm so happy this was helpful for you! 🖤
Helpful calendar, I am definitely adding Thai to my to do list. Thank you
You are the best! Happy New Year!
Thank you so much. It's a lot of help.
I have to say I am loving "The Office" snippets during the videos! Keep up the great work!!
I did download the template and I am definitely going to use it. Thank you for sharing. So useful.
Thank you so much for doing this video! and for the template!
Great video 👍thank you! Happy New Year 🥳
Happy New Year to you as well! You are very welcome and thank you for watching! 🖤
Thanks so much for this break down!
Thank you so much for this template and incredible video!!! I am a preservice teacher, this will really help me ensure I have some concept of Work/Life balance! Cheers
Thank you so much. I need to get started on this like today.
Best of luck to you! Thanks for watching! 🖤
Love this video!!! So many helpful hints.
I'm so happy you enjoyed it Kristin! That's great to hear! 🥰
Thank you for the templates! I am really glad I found your channel through a reddit thread for teachers!
I love this. I will definitely be using this for when I start teaching.
I'm so happy you will be able to use this when you start teaching! Thanks for watching Ashley! 🖤

Happy New Year Michelle !!!
Organization always leads to stablization .
Keep it up !

Thank you so much as always Dwight! Happy New Year to you! 🎉
If I had to do grocery shopping, I'd do it on Wednesday. Where I live, school districts have minimum day or early release Wednesday's so that's the perfect opportunity to go out shopping for groceries after school. Typically, the lines are shorter because of the lack of customers on those days.
Thank you for this.
You are very welcome! Thank you for watching Yvette! 🖤
Fantastic!!! I love schedules because they keep me sane!! I am old school but I am learning to go digital ...work in progress ;)!
They keep me sane as well! I've done this by hand but the technology definitely saves you time when you can copy and paste! 🥰
I am very afraid I will *not have any contingency time . . . stay tuned! lol I am very happy you acknowledged seasons of life (my adult children are grown and flown). Thank you for the fun way to organize by color and section.
Thank you fo the freebie Michelle! I had a schedule that was my go-to, but your format is more streamlined. The link does not load by the way.
This is awesome for time management
Yesss! I agree! Thanks for watching! 🖤
Yes I do have questions on your video
Like your shirt! I need to make a schedule so I don't spend so much time on the computer as an online student.
Thank you so much! Yes! Schedules are perfect for balancing your time and ensuring you aren't spending too much time on any particular task 🎉
i love the office referanes
Thanks I’m starting my student teaching in a few days and I needed help with scheduling!
Ahhh perfect timing! I love to create a new schedule whenever I enter into a new season in my life... student teaching is the perfect example! Thanks for watching Daisha and best of luck to you with your student teaching! 🖤
Good luck with student teaching, Daisha!! :) I was in your shoes not too long ago. I had an excellent experience with my cooperating teacher.
@@Sherlock910 thank you! I’m very excited for what’s to come 😊!
@@dais4548 One pro-tip though. And this really helped me. At the end of the day, ask your cooperating teacher if they can give you critical feedback on your lessons and classroom management practice. Typically, they're able to catch things that one doesn't notice when they teach. My cooperating teacher would often highlight my strengths and my growths. That helped me focus on areas I needed to improve on.
@@Sherlock910 yes! Thank you again, I’ll be sure to ask for feedback I want to be prepared for coming into my teaching.
This is a fantastic way to plan - I especially love all the colour coding and all. But could you please to a video on how to edit this - kinda struggling over here :(
Thanks for giving it away free and not trying to charge for this basic template :)
This is great. Can this be use for everyday life
Perfect for semester 2♥️
I'm so happy it was perfect timing for you! 🎉
Do you have any suggestions on things like my kids basketball games on Saturday? Every Saturday is a different game time. What would that look like on the weekly schedule?
There were some aspects of this that were valid and I use google calendar to block out my time for a lot of the items you listed so if anyone looks, they can see I am busy. That said, the idea that prep is nonnegotiable or that we can grade in smaller chunks isn't feasible. I am currently grading short stories for high school using a rubric, it takes me 30 min. to read and score each one and I only have 60 students. That doesn't fit in this type of work/life balance. My prep just these last two days back from break has been interrupted to 1) interview a para for a position we've been trying to fill for two months, 2) get our new counselor on board and trained in what we do and need, 3) helping a student with a social emotional issue. I get three preps a week, and one individual half day a month and I would be hard pressed to find even three preps all year where I wasn't pulled out of it do help out with a student, parent, or other staff member in need. I have to block in time from 3:30-5pm at school to do my real prep time and three days a week that is filled with school meetings, parent meetings, and IEP until about 4:30pm. In theory, your idea works. In the real world, this doesn't work as more and more we are asked to do more with less time. That is not to say, we shouldn't try or that we shouldn't create boundaries, but it isn't always as easy as just blocking out the time on a piece of paper. Our school has a policy that all work will be graded within seven days of it being collected. That means we have to block that time in. During this year, I would be hard pressed to find a school that was not short-handed with positions they couldn't fill or with frequent absences of staff due to Covid or quarantining. This will eventually pass, but we work as a team at schools so we have to pick up the slack and help out as much as we can. You usually offer a lot of very good ideas, a future video might include ways to find found time to get some life balance as we are all overtaxed at the moment. I know a lot of your ideas are geared more toward elementary but you have good information that can apply to all grade levels. I work in a K-12 public school and I can tell you this doesn't work for our elementary teachers this year either. We are all covering for each other so there is staff to meet students needs and I live in a state where our covid numbers are lower than much of the rest of the country. I cannot imagine what the teachers in the states where covid numbers are rising out of control are dealing with. Keep posting these ideas and tips and tricks. We are in a unique situation this year but much of what you share can be filed away for a year where we aren't in damage control mode. =) I appreciate your positive outlook and desire to support fellow educators.
The timetable app is great for alarms on your phone
Michelle, where did you find your striped basket that holds your markers? I really like it!
Thank you so much for this!! Question, how do you switch from Daily to weekly?
You are very welcome Heather! If you are referring to the Google Sheets template, there is a different sheet at the bottom (they look like tabs) for each schedule template including daily, weekly, and monthly. Just click on the sheet that says "Weekly". Hopefully that helps! 🖤
cool sis
Hi. Are these still available on TPT? I am coming to realize that I am using my time wisely and I feel this will assist me with getting on the right track. Thanks!
Hi Michelle, do you use this calendar you created or a Google Calendar?
I absoluty love your colors you use! Do you mind sharing the Hex? ❤️ ❤️
they are the default oversaturated ones...
As a first year teacher, my New Years resolution is to only stay 1 hour after contract hours 2 days a week. 😳 wish me luck. I was staying 2-4 hours extra almost everyday this first semester
P.S. Where is that sweater from 😩😩 so cute
I COMPLETELY get it Allison and I think that's a great resolution for this year! 🎉 Best of luck to you! I got the sweater on Amazon but it looks like it is unavailable now... so sorry! amzn.to/3pKT8JP
Can I import this into my digital planner?
How do I download the template of the calendar? Awesome Video. Thank you Michelle. Healthy and Happy 2022.
Click the link then open up the google sheet, file make a copy.
Thank you Lori! The directions for accessing the template start at 1:24 in the video!
Amazing how little time we have for ourselves after all of the “have-to’s” are blocked off
Do you have a template that has built in 7 or 8 periods a day (middle school/high school)?
This is a great video! I have these steps in my notes and will use the template you made. Thank you ☺️ If it works in your schedule, would you consider making time stamps in your videos? That way taking notes or skipping to a specific section is more viewer friendly. I know as educators we are always looking for ways to improve. I hope this isn’t taken as being bossy 🥴
For ur next video 📸 u should make a video of how I make my Lessons for my students or how I make my intro
Hi
Which screen recording software/website/app do you use and which video editing app/software/website d'you use?
Where is the link
Template is no longer on her website. Anyone have a copy?
Imagine this plus having a partner, children, their hobbies, .. how do parents cope?
I have tried to locate the free digital planner. When I click on the link, it takes me to this UA-cam video. Please help. Thank you.
Hi I subscribe
Hi first comment
I am new on there's
Ah, I wish I only had to teach a few hours a day!! LOL
My contract hours were always from 8:15 to 4:15 but obviously that included meetings, student arrival time, planning time, lunch, recess, dismissal, etc. so I personally would break it up in my schedule so it seemed less daunting.
You get four hours of planning time? That’s more than we get in the UK!
I can't find the template in the comments. I scrolled back as far as I could.
It could be the device I'm using...
I have to be honest. The whole time I was watching this video I was thinking that my life is so haphazard, this will never work for me. Watching it was actually giving me a little anxiety. 😟 However, I am going to give it a shot and hope that it makes my life seem less out of control. Stay tuned. I'll let you know how it goes.
As a type B person, this was a fascinating watch, but living my life based on a schedule is my literal nightmare lol
I completely get that! If you can function with a less structured schedule and still get the things done that you need to get done, go for it!
@@PocketfulofPrimary yep, everyone is different!
Don’t know how I got recommended for this But I’m glad you cute
Are you still a teacher
i LOVE this, but the colors are WAAAYAYYYY to bright for me.....
This still seems very type A
Yup... I'm type A! But, I get asked a lot about how I manage my time and get so much done... this is how!
