In this episode, we’re sharing our personal Mount Rushmore of Teaching Loves—the top four things that keep us motivated and remind us why we do what we do!

We have often spoken about the importance of having a checklist for completing tasks that are recurring. We've shared our morning routine, evening routines, and lesson planning routines but we've never really gone in depth with the routines that happen throughout the year that can help make you feel successful. 

In this episode, we are going to chat to you about reset checklists for the week, month, and quarter. What you can add to them and how it can help make you even more prepared for the days ahead.
