The instagram/pinterest game can be tough and a little misleading about what our role is as educators, and where we can spend our super finite time creating the inputs our students need. In this episode, Sarah opens the conversation of where to start with planning. Spoiler, it doesn't have to do with fancy-looking lesson plans-- it has to do with student output. Sarah shares the connection to this realization with her own health and farming journeys at the beginning, tying it into practical ways to know where to re-focus our attention when we start to get a little lost in the Pinterest world of fancy-pants plans.  The main takeaway- take the time to OBSERVE your student outputs first. Then, plan for what will make a difference there. Check out a summary and some helpful questions at: https://www.groundedteaching.com/podcast/episode7
