Could your morning classroom routine use a little pizzazz? Join me as I interview Susan Matthews, who is an absolute master at morning meetings.

We're also sharing 5 components you need to have an epic morning meeting. In Part 1 today, we'll cover the first three components, so be sure to tune in for the next episode for the last two components and bonus tips!
