0:00.0	Well, hello there, top teachers. We are your hosts, Michelle Emerson and Bridget Spackman,
0:05.7	and we are here to make your life easier by helping you master your time, organization,
0:10.2	and productivity as a teacher. Today's episode is going to be a little different, or actually
0:16.0	a lot different in this episode. Bridget is going to ask me 25 rapid fire questions about time management,
0:24.7	organization, and productivity. But before we jump into the rapid fire, let's hear a TSA from
0:31.4	Liz W. Hello, I just ordered my 2021, 2022 planner. I used slides last year but went to the tablet route this year and
0:40.8	have had fun really playing with it. Okay, so T-SH. I returned to teaching full-time this year. I had

1:29.8	you feel. When I recently packed up my classroom to move, I realized how much stuff I had,
1:36.0	just stuff. Like, it was everywhere. And once I saw it all piled up, I realized I had so many things
1:43.4	that were just not necessities. They were things I
1:46.0	could do without. There were things that I bought kind of on a whim, that target dollar spot.
1:50.0	It gets me every time. But I've definitely been embracing quote unquote minimalism in all aspects of
1:57.2	my life lately, not fully embracing. I'm not like a full minimalist by any means,
2:01.7	but just certain aspects. And I feel like our classrooms are one area where we can all benefit
2:07.8	from embracing some of those minimalism characteristics. Honestly, my biggest recommendation
