Everyday Counts Calendar

Ok...my principal bought this for our intermediate wing around October of last school year and I have yet to wrap my head around it. 

I want to use it with fidelity this year, but I'm not sure.  Anyone out there use this and have success stories they want to share with me?  I'm going to lie down and read some of this teachers guide right now. Really...I'm going to read this as my bedtime story, no playing. I know you think I'm kidding😜😜
