What if Do Nows Do Less than a teacher thinks? In an attempt not to lose any second of learning, many teachers have an activity for students to work on as they monitor the halls or transition from the last class to the new class. The activity is typically called a "Do Now". In this podcast, Coach promotes the idea that a better option for our student's mental health and class management for the teacher would be to get rid of the Do Nows and allow the students a break in those few minutes before the class begins.
