About this template
Teaching itself fills the week, so everything around it, like grading, parent emails, forms and reports, piles up until a weekend disappears.
The project splits a term into regular weekly routines and dated jobs counted from the first day of term, with reports near the end.
Tips from the template
- Apply it on the first day of term.
- Set the grading blocks on your lightest teaching days.
