[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers have negotiated prep time and professional development in their contracts (because they need it and administers would steal the time if they could). From my understanding with the way the distance learning schedules are set up, in order to meet the requirements, Wednesdays have to be reserved for prep time.[/quote] I Keep hearing this but I don’t get this argument. On M, T, Th and F, about half the day is dedicated to “asynchronous learning” - Isn’t all that time teacher prep time? Why do they also need at least half of the day on Wednesday? For grades 6-8, the teachers only have contact with their students 2x per week. It seems like a really big challenge for teachers to deliver the required curriculum to students with only 2 classes per week (or one on weeks when there is a holiday). [/quote]
