Teacher Sunday reset checklist

An hour on Sunday so Monday morning is ready before you are. Do the school list first, then the home list, then stop.

School things (about 40 minutes)

• Skim lesson plans for Monday to Friday
• Check slides, links and videos still work
• Make the copies list for Monday's prep
• Decide what marking is due this week, and when you'll do it
• Supplies to bring in
• Sub plans up to date, just in case
• Draft any parent emails
• Check the school calendar: assemblies, trips, deadlines

Home things (about 20 minutes)

• Lunches prepped for at least three days
• Outfits picked for the week
• Laundry done
• Work bag packed
• Laptop and devices charging
• Groceries in
• Bins out
• Alarms set

A suggested order

1. Calendar first, so you know which days are busy.
2. Lessons and copies next; they decide what you need to bring.
3. Then the home list, starting with food.
4. Finish with one thing just for you this week, written down.

Keep it to an hour

Set a timer. Anything not done goes on Monday's prep period list instead of eating your Sunday evening.
