EP332 Time blocking for teachers: Align your priorities, energy, & tasks to create a sustainable schedule

Time blocking sounds simple… but if you've ever sat down during your prep period with a plan and still ended the day feeling behind, you know it's not always that straightforward. In this episode, I'm walking you through a flexible, teacher-centered approach to scheduling your time. This isn't about squeezing more into the day—it's about protecting time for what matters and letting go of the guilt about what doesn't. I'll share how to: Allocate time for high, medium, and low-priority tasks (without spinning your wheels) Match your work to your energy levels using deep vs. shallow tasks Set realistic work hours and assign tasks to those blocks Get better at estimating how long things actually take Plan for interruptions and adjust when life throws off your schedule If this feels like the kind of support you need right now, there are two ways to go deeper:  Join me for the Unlocking Teacher Productivity cohort through RocketPD fthis winter for a guided experience, or check out the 40 Hour Teacher Workweek if you prefer a self-paced, affordable option. Both can help you create systems that are sustainable long-term. Let's figure out how to build a schedule that honors your time, energy, and values.
