0:00.0	Well, hello there, top teachers. We are your host, Michelle Emerson and Bridget Spackman, and we are here
0:06.8	to make your life easier by helping you master your time, organization, and productivity as a teacher.
0:12.5	Not only is it a new month, but it is about to be the longest February in four years. So buckle up.
0:20.5	And maybe I should say boot up because grab your device
0:24.7	and get ready to do some digital planning with Bridget and I as we prepare for the month ahead.
0:30.5	So in this episode, Michelle and I are going to be sharing our own TSHs. So Michelle, do you want to kick us off? What is your TSAH for this month?

1:45.1	the next day. So my thought was, oh, okay, I'll be able to do some work like at the airport
1:51.0	and on the plane. And I did, but it just wasn't the easiest because on the plane, I didn't
1:58.2	have internet access. Now it was a 12-hour flight, so I was like, this is great.
2:01.8	I'll get lots of work done.
2:03.0	But I had to do it all in like the offline mode on Google slides.
