Lesson Plan
Time-Blocking Coach Guide
Students will create a weekly time-blocked schedule with two 45–60 minute focus blocks, buffer periods, and a recovery slot, then save it in a planner or calendar.
Time blocking helps students prioritize tasks, reduce decision fatigue, and build habits that don’t rely on pure willpower—boosting productivity and well-being.
