0:00.0	Well, hello there, top teachers. We are your host, Bridget Spackman and Michelle Farray, and we are here to make your life easier by helping you master your time, organization, and productivity as a teacher.
0:13.9	Guys, today we will share some simple strategies that you can implement in your day that will transform your teacher productivity.
0:23.8	Guys, I said it. Transform your teacher productivity. But first, let's hear a TSAH or time-sucking
0:30.6	hurdle. Today's TSAH comes from Malmendi. I'm so sorry if I pronounce that incorrectly.
0:41.2	My TSAH is losing focus by all the to-does and piles I create while trying to be productive. I totally understand this and I really

1:37.8	But in today's episode, we are going to be sharing some very simple and easy strategies that you can implement today
1:46.9	in order to transform your teacher productivity.
1:50.8	And we have five strategies we're going to share.
1:53.6	And I love these strategies because like Bridget said, you can start doing them today.
1:57.8	So the very first strategy is to create a power list for the day. You all have
2:03.5	heard us talk about powerless before. A power list is essentially three actionable items,
2:10.9	keyword they're actionable, as in you can take action on them and get something done,
2:14.7	that you must complete that day. So this kind of goes back to the
2:19.4	TSA when you feel like you have all of these to-does and you don't know where to start, the power list
