Dear Educator,

We’ve all felt the pressure—the pacing guides, the curriculum maps, the looming deadlines. It’s easy to get caught up in the rush, covering as much content as possible in the shortest amount of time. But here’s the truth: depth matters more than speed.

In this episode, Teacher Moves: How Planning with Clarity and Purpose Leads to Impact and Growth, we’re taking a step back to reflect on our role as educators—not just as instructors, but as scientists. Every day, we observe our classrooms, analyze student needs, and make intentional decisions that shape learning experiences. The most effective teaching isn’t about checking off topics; it’s about strategically choosing what will lead to real, lasting understanding.

So, let’s lean into the power of planning with purpose. Let’s commit to going a mile deep instead of a mile wide. Because when we teach with clarity and intention, we don’t just cover material—we build knowledge that sticks, skills that transfer, and confidence that lasts.

With purpose,

Laneshia Boone
