Ever hesitate to take a sick day because it’ll mess up your lesson rotation? You’re not alone, but it doesn’t have to be that way.

In this episode, Bryson shares a simple but powerful strategy to keep your curriculum on track no matter what life throws your way: the lesson numbering system. You’ll learn how to shift from date-based planning to sequence-based lessons, giving you more flexibility, consistency, and peace of mind.

Bryson walks through how to organize lessons by number, track class progress, and make room for differentiation, so every student stays on their own path, and you can finally rest without guilt.

It’s time to let go of the pressure to “keep up” and embrace a planning method that supports you and your students.
