Week one is MAKEOVER MADNESS!!

I have been wanting to revamp and makeover my VERY FIRST TPT PRODUCT for SO very long now…. 
Truth: This VERY first TPT products is the one I get the most use out of – it is ALSO BEYOND necessary when it comes to lesson planning organization sanity for my Type A personality 🙂 I use it EVERY SINGLE WEEK!!
What is it, you ask?! . . . . It’s simple, really.  But OH so very effective for me.  It’s my Weekly Planning Checklist!  ANNNND It’s got a MAKEOVER!!

Here’s what its makeover includes!!

Like many, many parts of my life, my lesson planning involves a routine.  Truly, I don’t know how else I would do it! So as I planned week after week after week after week…. I realized that I was writing the SAME things on my to do list week after week after week after week…. until I got smart.  I thought – OH! I can type it up! I can make copies of my planning TO DOs that are routined and don’t change much from week to week, and I can have blank copies on my planning clipboard ready to grab and start fresh when I plan each week!
Here’s a look at my to do list in action!!
Your to dos don’t match mine, you say?! NO WORRIES!! It’s COMPLETELY EDITABLE!!

Orrrr if you prefer to hand write your to do list, I have ready to print pages for you, too!!

It’s SUCH a time saver when it comes to making copies, too! As a plan, I jot down what copies I will need for which day of the week.  Then, when I create, print, and copy them, I know exactly which day of the week folder to put them in in my days of the week drawer organizer behind my desk where I keep my copies for the week that you can read more about {here}.  All I have to do is look to see which day of the week I jotted down the copy beside on my to do list, and add it to that folder after I’ve copied it!
If the weekly check list sounds like something that might help you stay focused and organized as you plan, my weekly check list pack also includes a variety of lists and planning sheets that might work out for you even better than the weekly planning check list! You can see the lists included in the image below! 

I PROMISE that it’s a time saver and an organizational magician when it comes to planning each week.  It has been SO helpful to me, and I’ve gotten SO much fabulous feedback from my teacher friends in all different grade levels who use this each week!! I hope you find it helpful, too! 
Thanks SO much to the ladies above for hosting this super fun TPT SELLER CHALLENGE!

    I love the colors in your revised product! I'm all about making lists and have several going at once. It's the only way I ever get anything done! 🙂
