Hi everyone,
Welcome back to TT Weekly!
We've been busy building, and this week we have five new guides ready for you, plus a bunch of under-the-hood improvements that should make everything feel faster and smoother.
Five New Guides Are Live 📚
👀 Have you seen our #ThreePromptThursday series on LinkedIn? We've turned all of those posts into full guides you can use right now:
- Conference Reflections - Turn student reflections into meaningful conference prep in 15 minutes
- MAP Data Analysis - Transform assessment data into actionable intervention plans
- Seasonal Content - Create culturally responsive materials that honor your students' identities
- UDL Alignment - Analyze lessons against the Universal Design for Learning framework
- Academic Vocabulary - Extract key terms and create Quizlet sets from any text in 5 minutes
Each guide follows our "Three Prompts" format—give AI the right prompts in sequence, get classroom-ready materials.
I made you a quick video walking through the Guides page and showing how to use the Academic Vocabulary guide:

Under the Hood: Faster Everything ⚡
You might not notice all of these, but everything should feel snappier:
- Conversations now load 2-5x faster (headers appear almost immediately)
- Added GPT 5.1 and Mistral to your model options
- Fixed scrolling issues and UI quirks across the platform
- General speed improvements everywhere
Quick note: We had a temporary issue with Claude on Monday that's now resolved. Apologies if that disrupted your workflow!
A Note on Token Counts 💚
Huge thank you to our paying subscribers—you make this work possible and we're incredibly grateful.
If you're on the free plan, you may start seeing token count warnings or prompts to start a new conversation to continue. We'll have more to share about tokens and context management soon, but in the meantime, reach out with any questions!
