bloom daily planners New Undated Academic Year Teacher Planner & Calendar with Frosted Protective Cover - 7 Period Lesson Plan Organizer Book (9" x 11") - Teacher with a Plan

My struggles with regular planners:1) I struggle with planners - they either have tiny spaces to write, so I end up making a mess of them and my perfectionist trait hates it and I stop using it (not the case with this one)2) They don't have monthly and weekly pages so I end up missing items, or over booking.3) They always get trashed with use and they end up looking so messy I need a new one before I have finished the year!4) I forget them5) I need a notebook tooWhy is this plannner perfect?1) The monthly pages are the perfect size to write multiple items in for each day, plus there is a note section on the side to support those stupidly busy days! Then these planners have full pages for each day, of each week. I don't use them like a typical planner in that I correspond everything to the day, but I use them as notes for all my meetings so I am NEVER without my information - which means I dont need multiple notebooks and planners and diaries, I have it all with me in one neat book2) I check my monthly page every day, multiple times a day and it allows me to keep on top of all my meetings, and all the pages following and prior help me keep the notes I need to be prepared for those meetings.3) This book gets used! It goes everywhere with me and the hard cover keeps the front and back protected so it never looks trashed. The inside will be a mess but I look clean, organized and like I maintain my planner when it fact I throw it around in the car, backpacks, tables etc.Even the tabs are laminated and reinforced!4) The size of this (they do offer smaller if it's better for you) means I don't go blind to it! It's in my backpack and I see it and know to take it out, when I get home I make sure I check it, and it sits by my coffee machine and I check it before bed (so I set the right alarm) and it's the first thing I see in the morning so it goes with me. All the notes fit in it, so it becomes like an extra limb - you can't be blind to an extra limb!5) the reinforced covers make this a perfect notebook as well - I can write anywhere!Additional Pros1) It's not dated, typically as a teacher I need a planner that is set out academically, however, those months before school starts is when I typically start to get busy, so having one that starts in August isn't feasible. I then also started grad school and needed one that would allow me to start in April as I prepped. Having an undated planner meant I could start it when ever I needed to.2) All the extra pages are a godsend3) there is a place to hold extra paper in the front and back of the planner, so loose-leaf papers I accumulate don't get scrunched in the bottom of my bag!Guys, seriously, I struggle with planners, digital ones get forgotten, paper ones fall into disuse, messy ones drive me insane even though it means they are being used. This one just works.It just works - what a relief!

Truly one of the best teacher planners I’ve bought. I’m about to start my 6th year as a teacher, and I’m pretty sure this is my favorite planner. It’s super durable, has lots of space for everything I want/need, and I appreciate the monthly tab labels. A lot of planners don’t have enough space for each class I teach every day, and this one fits what I need. I also love the design, especially the fact that it shows the entire month and then the following pages go week-by-week. I’m seriously considering buying another couple immediately to make sure I can find this again for future years — more pretty and fun designs would be great! Maybe something that focuses on individual disciplines (English, math, science, history, music, art, etc?)

I love this planner! Not only is it pretty (inside and out) but it is super sturdy. There is a plastic covering page on the front and back to withstand wear and tear. I love a big spiral & this is going to last. Inside there are a few teacher log pages, which I will not use for my homeschool planning, but would be useful for a classroom teacher. I love that I get to write in the dates on the calendar so I could pick this planner up each and every year if I wanted without the dates expiring. Plus this planner is a great size, true to size. There are inspiring quotes inside & pretty patterns & colors each month. Plus there's a heavy duty folder in the back. I love this & for the price I don't think you can beat it!

Things I love: the days of the week are vertical like a calendar, it's color coded, there's room to write notes off to the side, there is a calendar for the month right before each planning section, there are tabs for the months so it's easy to find what you taught earlier in the year, there are plastic covers on the back and front. I used it all year and it did not fall apart. I plan to order another one for the next school year.
