Our battle continues! This week, Hope, Wade, and Chris are once again joined on the couch with Bri and Christi (@twotampacoaches). This week, it’s the Battle of the Minutes, and strategies for maximizing instructional time in education. The conversation covers practical tips for using planning periods wisely, engaging students from the start of the day, and integrating technology meaningfully, all aimed at improving time management in educational settings.

This is Part 1 of a two part episode discussing instructional time. Part 2 launches next week on May 26th.
