For example, you might ask your students to edit their writing by checking for spelling and punctuation errors.

But for revision, they might add or remove ideas to their writing.

If so, it’s important to start doing some lesson If so, it’s important to start doing some lessons where you explicitly teach sentence structure! 

I remember teaching writing in my first year. I was teaching 3rd grade and it just never occurred to me that I need to explicitly teach students how to write a proper sentence.

But after seeing their first writing piece, I was shocked!

Do your students struggle with this too?

Cute craft idea for December! (If you’re allowed Cute craft idea for December! (If you’re allowed to do Christmas themed activities in your school).

Just grab white, red, and skin colored paper that you have in beige/brown etc. and let the students create their own Santa!

With younger students, you could cut some strips of white paper out or red triangles to help them. 

For older students, they could do it on their own! 

All the cutting and gluing is great for fine motor and I think this would make a pretty cute bulletin board! 

You could also make this craft more educational by having students write math facts or words on the beard strips!

Save this post so you don’t forget to try it 🙂

Guess what?! This post has been repurposed! I’m Guess what?! This post has been repurposed! I’m repeating myself about repeating myself 😂🤯

So here’s the thing. We think that we constantly need to re-invent the wheel and churn out brand new content all the time but it’s exhausting!

Trust me when I say that no-one will remember or care if you repeat yourself 🙂

Also, most of your audience don’t even see your posts. And…most people need to hear something like 7 times before it sinks in.

So repurpose your content and repeat yourself! 

Save this post as a reminder for the next time you’re stuck for content ideas. It will remind you to repurpose older content 🙂

Do you want your bundles to convert to more sales? Do you want your bundles to convert to more sales? 

The key is to have really great covers, thumbnails, and descriptions. 🙌🏻

This week on the terrific teacherpreneur podcast, I chat all about making less busy covers and thumbnails. I also talk about the importance of more detailed descriptions. 

We should be making so much more effort on bundles because they are big ticket items! 💰

Let me know in the comments below, have you listened to the episode yet? I’d love to know what you thought! 

If not, will you be listening soon? 🙂

The answer is there I promise! It’s all in the d The answer is there I promise! It’s all in the data. 

Providing that you have had the resource up for a few months at least, you can usually get a bit of an idea about why it isn’t selling. 

Most of the time? It’s not selling because it’s not being seen. If you have a really low number of views, then I would suggest working on your SEO or making a new cover! Or perhaps doing some outside marketing. 

The other thing to keep an eye on is conversion rates. Does your resource have a really low conversion, say under 3%? Maybe your resource needs a new set of thumbnails or a new preview!

Either way, stop thinking that your resource is bad! It’s probably amazing and your buyers probably need it and would love it! 

It’s probably just that it’s not being seen or it’s not converting. Those are things that you do have some control over.

I challenge you to take a look at some of your worst sellers. Look at the data and see if there’s something you can tweak! 

Double tap if you enjoyed this post 💗

Bundle specific previews are a non negotiable! Yep Bundle specific previews are a non negotiable! Yep, I said it. 

I know, I know. You’re thinking, ‘why do I need a bundle specific preview? When someone previews my bundle, they can see all the individual previews! Why should I make all the extra effort?’ 

But here’s the thing, buyers are time poor. They don’t wanna sit and scroll through 10 individual previews, especially if they all look the same. 

A bundle specific preview allows you to give an overall big picture look at what is in a bundle. This is a really powerful sales opportunity. 

Also, bundles are a big deal. They are more expensive and we want to sell more of them! These are the listings that we should be making more effort on 🙌🏻

I think that if you want to sell more bundles, you need to make amazing bundle specific previews.

Have you been making bundle specific previews? 🙌🏻

If not, do you feel motivated now? 🔥 

Or have you not got the time? 🥲

With everything that’s been going on at TPT late With everything that’s been going on at TPT lately, I am definitely glad that I invest in my website costs and email service provider. 

Lately, I’ve been feeling a lot like I need to make sure there are things in my business that are secure.

I also invest in a bunch of other things I probably couldn’t fit in this reel! Maybe I’ll have to do a part two!

Investing is truly such a powerful thing. When I was just running a hobby/side hustle, I didn’t really invest any money. But I didn’t really grow much either. I really love nowadays treating my business like an actual business and spending money on it so it can grow!

Double tap if you feel the same! 💗

Is it just me or does it feel like everywhere we l Is it just me or does it feel like everywhere we look, there’s another algorithm that we have to compete with in this business? 😅

If it’s not TPT, it’s Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube or Pinterest! Even Google for blogging/websites.

The worst thing is they always seem to change! 🤯

It feels like you constantly have to adapt and learn more about SEO or create certain types of content that the algorithm prefers. 

It’s quite exhausting, right?! 😴 

The more I think about it, the more I realize why a lot of TPT sellers have gravitated to email marketing over the years. Because it feels like the only safe haven where you don’t have to think about algorithms! 😅

Which algorithm drives you the most crazy? 😅
