A First Look at the Happy Planner - Teacher Edition

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you know that I’m a bit of a planner geek. Last year, I used the Private Music Teacher Planner & Agenda by Full Voice. You can find out my first impressions of it here:

It is a wonderful planner. Very well thought out.

It’s just that since a good chunk of my operations is managed online via My Music Staff (affiliate link) and my main bullet journal/planner, it was too much planner for what I need. I probably used only half of the layouts.

This year, I am trying the Teacher Edition of The Happy Planner. What attracted me to it is its simplicity and flexibility. I give my first impressions and take you on a flip through in today’s video:

Fellow teachers, what is your favourite planner for lessons? Analog or digital? Pre-made or custom-made? Share them in the Comments below.

Wordsworth Planner | Unboxing, Flip Through & First Impressions

My ongoing quest to find the perfect planner led me to the Bullet Journal method, which has been, for the most part, the ideal planner. However, my challenge remains as it always has been - time. It just takes so much time to lay out all the spreads.

At the beginning of the school year, I embarked on a quest for the perfect planner with pre-made spreads, but still has the flexibility to work as a Bullet Journal. My journey led me to the Wordsworth Daily Planner, which has various elements of bullet journalling that I love, without spending hours setting up spreads.

The Wordsworth Planner

I purchased a 2020 Non-Dated Daily Planner from Amazon for $24.95 CAD. Specs are:

• 320 pages, 120 gsm paper

• lies 180 degrees flat

• back pocket

• two page markers

• acid-free paper

It comes with a How to Use Your Wordsworth Planner guidebook. There are also various resources available on the Wordsworth Planner website.
