You’ve spoken! I’m only in day two of collecting my 2016 Reader Survey results but one thing is VERY CLEAR. The number one challenge the readers of this blog have is “I don’t have enough time.” (I’ve embedded the live data chart below. The poll is still open.)

What Is This Create Your Own Planner Kit?

I have something I think will help many teachers. For years, I have made my own planner. I adapt it depending on my situation. This kit includes:

templates,
how-to instructions, and
videos explaining how to edit and make your own planner.

Will you help by voting on your favorite cover? I’m doing this quick project myself. I don’t have all the regular ways of publishing available such as getting feedback from reviewers, etc. So, I’m just using readers as reviewers and taking your feedback. Thank you in advance!
