-👉 Next step: I can make you a PDF/PNG GoodNotes template page (with a vocab table + a to-do checklist) that you can import as a custom page into GoodNotes.
+^ To-Do Task ^ Priority ^ Due Date ^ Status ^

-Do you want the sample layout to look more like a grid/table (for structured vocab tracking) or a notebook/planner style page (more free-form with lined paper and a checklist)?
