    32. You Don't Need a Pinterest Perfect Classroom!

    In today's episode we discuss why you don't need to spend 3 (unpaid!) days setting up your classroom to be an effective teacher. We grant you the permission to spend just enough time making sure the space is safe, tidy, and welcoming for your students.
