[quote=Anonymous]For the questions:

I have 23 students, I realize I'm on the lower end. I do actually have 25 but I had 2 families opt out of distance learning and they only wanted to pick up the packets I made and DCPS packets.

I have 6 groups which totals 4.5 hours per day. and then the 30 min whole group. So I teach 5 hours per day, however I do have a para who is very helpful and awesome! :-)
And I find the time by working overtime (in terms of planning/creating new materials). This has not changed, as I did this even when we were in person, like many teachers.

*Also to the parents saying it's a lot, it definitely is. I just ask my parents to at least make 2 of the small group lessons per week, it's going to be hard to judge whether your child has retained and continues to grow new skills if I never see him/her to get data.

Most parents make 3-5 per week. and I'd say 40-90% of my class makes the whole group lesson on any given day.

The other materials are do at your own pace, they are things that help retain your child's skills during this time. I don't force parents to turn them in ASAP.

Also I modeled this after my friend who is a self-contained teacher, it is a bit more difficult with 23 kids vs. 10 however it's possible. 
I also want to mention, I'm still young and although I'm newly married I have no kids yet. This expectation may not be realistic for all teachers. They might have to do 20 minutes small group a day and not 45 minutes. 
I'm also a perfectionist and a little too obsessed with teaching lol.  :oops:
