FOR GRADES 2–6 TEACHERS · ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE NEW TO TEACHING
You’ve explained the expectations.
Now build the routines that help students follow through.
Getting started without five reminders. Moving between activities with a purpose. Taking responsibility for their part.

Build it FIRST. Manage it SECOND.™
Build a plan you can actually teach from.
Work through the seven-day process to map out what students will do, what you’ll say and model, and how you’ll practice and reflect together.

START WITH THE PART OF YOUR DAY YOU WANT TO IMPROVE.
You know what you want your classroom to look like.
Let’s plan how to get there.
Maybe students need several reminders to begin. Partner work gets loud before the learning gets going. Or a simple transition takes far longer than it should.
Choose one of those moments. Use the Playbook to decide what needs to be taught, what students need to practice, and how you’ll involve them in making it better.
This is for YOU if…
- You’re a new teacher turning classroom expectations into everyday routines.
- You’re an experienced teacher with one part of the day that needs a reset.
- You want students involved in practicing, reflecting, and taking responsibility.
Especially relevant for grades 2–6, with planning prompts you can adapt to your students and setting.
LET'S MAKE THIS REAL · INDEPENDENT WORK
“Work quietly” needs a little more teaching behind it.
Suppose side conversations keep interrupting independent work. Here’s how you might use the planning process:
01 / Set the expectation.
Decide on a voice level for the activity and explain how it helps everyone work.
02 / Model and practice it.
Demonstrate what that voice level sounds like. Let students practice during the lesson, with feedback.
03 / Notice and reflect together.
“Our voice level is giving everyone room to think.” Then ask: “Did it help us work? What do we need to adjust?”
Your plan connects the expectation to what you and your students will actually do.

FROM SARAH LEGAULT · FOUNDER, TEACHERS EMPOWERMENT NETWORK
Here’s why I built this.
For years, I thought I needed to get better at managing students. Teaching got easier when I started deliberately building the classroom I wanted to teach in.
That meant building expectations WITH students, explicitly teaching routines, and making time to practice and reflect.
High Expectations. Student Voice. Relationships.
After 20+ years in education, I created this Playbook to help you turn those ideas into decisions for your own classroom—starting with one part of your day.
Culture First. Behavior Second.™
GOOD QUESTIONS. QUICK ANSWERS.
A few things you might be wondering.
Can I use this during the school year?
Yes. Begin with a routine or classroom moment that needs attention now. You can use the planning process for a fresh start or a midyear reset.
Is this a course or a physical book?
It’s a downloadable, 26-page PDF Playbook. You can print it or annotate it digitally. This purchase is for the Playbook; it does not include live coaching or membership.
Do I need to change my whole classroom?
Start with one part of your day. Use the prompts to decide what to teach and practice, then build on what you learn.
What does “seven-day build” mean?
It’s the Playbook’s sequence for developing and trying your plan. Students may need continued practice and adjustments beyond those seven days.
How do I receive it?
You’ll receive immediate access after checkout, with access details sent to your email.
