Day in the Life with Marie [S6 E206]

Listen to the full episode below:

Friends, we are doing something a little different. We know how crazy days can get for teachers and they seem to be especially crazy come the end of the school year. Between state testing, wrapping up the current school year, and getting things ready for next school year, the days are just packed! 

Today, we are tagging along with Marie for a long 13 hour day at school. She’s checking in and sharing what she is doing from before school auditioning middle schoolers, to her crazy busy lunch period, and wrapping up her long day with rehearsals and a live Down with the Reading Quiz training. We can’t wait to share a glimpse into what the busy days look like and what we’re thinking, planning, and doing throughout the day!
