Summary

It's the only event focused entirely on saving teachers TIME! Learn from current K-12 teachers as they share their best tips for working more effectively, efficiently, and enjoyably.

The 40 Hour Teacher Workweek program is an online course I first created in 2015 (with a total update in 2020), and we’ve now had tens of thousands of teachers complete the course.

With so many different personality types and teaching contexts, the amount of new ideas to spring out of the course was inevitable. I’ve always been impressed by the tweaks, offshoots, extensions, and transformations teachers have done as they’d made my ideas their own. The Summit is an opportunity for you to learn more about them and their phenomenal work!

The 40 Hour Teacher Workweek Online Summit this April features:

Opening and closing keynotes by 40 Hour founder Angela Watson (that's me)
30+ presentations by current K-12 classroom teachers
No fluff, filler, icebreakers, or sales pitches
Each session is just 15-20 minutes long
The ability to chat with other teachers during the live sessions to get personalized advice

This event is entirely online, completely FREE, and beneficial for all K-12 teachers!

Some presenters will take you on a video tour of their classrooms to share organizational tips and classroom routines. Others will screen share their way through tutorials of how they organize digital files, manage assessment, or plan lessons. Still others will give a fast rundown of all their best timesaving tips for grading, differentiation, email, and more.

0:00.0	Hey there, it's Angela. I just wanted to make a quick announcement to make sure that you didn't miss the 40 hour Teacher Work Week online summit that's happening in April.
0:11.0	I've mentioned it in the most recent podcast episode and it will be in an
0:15.2	upcoming episode as well, but if you don't listen to those I want to make sure that you see this
0:20.2	announcement so that you can take part. Here's what's going on. Last year in
0:25.0	2023 in the summer I hosted the very first 40-hour teacher work week online
0:30.5	summit. This is the only free event that is focused entirely on saving
0:35.7	teachers time and helping you do your job more effectively and efficiently.
0:40.4	So last summer we had over 10,000 teachers attend and got so much positive feedback in large part because every single one of our presenters is a current K-12 classroom teacher sharing exactly what works with their
0:55.0	students and their current workload. All of the presenters are also from our
0:59.6	40-hour teacher workweek community so by this point we've had around 60,000 teachers
1:05.2	go through the 40 hour program and they are now applying to present in the
1:09.9	summit to share how they have streamlined their work so that they have been through
1:13.7	this training they know how to apply these principles that I've taught them and now
1:17.2	they're sharing exactly what it looks like in all these different teaching
1:20.6	contacts different grade levels different different subject areas, different
1:24.3	counties, states, cities, countries all around the world. So if you attended this
1:29.2	last year I think you'll find that a lot of the formatting is similar to what you've seen before, right?
1:36.4	So we're still doing teacher-led sessions that are just 15 to 20 minutes long.
1:41.4	We're going to still be doing them with a live chat so that you can
1:45.4	interact. The presentations themselves are pre-recorded and submitted to me. There's no way
1:50.8	I would take a chance with having 30 some people being able to go live.
1:55.0	I mean, you all know what the technology glitches are like, right?
