[quote=Anonymous]I also teach elementary ESOL and my administrators love to change our grade levels frequently. It suits their purposes even if it makes a lot more work for us. We don't have a curriculum so I have to come up with my own materials every day. They do pay for RAZ kids subscriptions which does have some pre-written lesson plans but I spend a lot of my planning time finding materials. We do have a guided book room but most of the time, my students have already read those books with their classroom teacher. It would be nice if my students each had their own device and I could assign books to them in RAZ Kids depending on what skill we are working on (ex: books with short a sound) but I only get the use of iPads maybe once a week. So I end up printing off a lot of paper books. I spend a lot of money finding materials. But our school has a laminator so what I do print out, I often laminate it so I can reuse it. Sometimes I am jealous that the classroom teachers teach the same grade year after year since many of them copy and paste their main lessons and then just tweak them to meet the needs of that year's class. But they also have a lot of other responsibilities I don't like homeroom stuff.[/quote]
