[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rather than training (I'm a professor, I had to pivot too, and this is not rocket science), all districts need to hold teachers accountable: x hours synchronous each day, mandatory individual check-ins with students x times per week, less busywork, more content and rigor, one app.

Stop posting Instagram shots of your garden projects during work hours, etc.

Many at my school were working 18 hour days to deliver a few decent hours of synchronous learning and more asynchronous content. As the spring went on, we could scale it back some.  The grading/feedback loop was a challenge because we were asked not to penalize kids in case they didn't have access.   I'll see my garden when I retire.  Looking at the risk factor, animosity directed at us and family worry about my returning to the classroom, that retirement may be sooner than I'd planned.[/quote]

Really?  I am kind of surprised by this.  I had assumed that teachers were in the same boat a lot of us were re: childcare, and that was why it seemed like things went poorly in the spring.

Can you give an example of what was going on 18 hours/day?  Those hours are brutal.  [/quote]

This teacher is FOS. 18/24 hours were agent working??? This is why people hate teacher a. They lie lie lie sp they can sit their fat duffs at home all day while we atruggle to feed our kids, teach them and hold down a full time job. Out of my 4 kids, 1 teacher was amazing! My son's third grade teacher was on early every morning with relaxation music, said the pledge with kids, had a chat with them to check in, and them she taught them and then extended the or learning and gave them challenges like an escape room or a real life problem to solve in which they ised Math. She read a novel to them twice a week, actually taught them how to write and then gave them journal entries to do. She explained everything perfectly And had a parent calender so parents knew what was being taught and what was due. Then, she gave the kids an online chat scrapbook and my child loved it! She took them on virtual field trips and they got to see a play online. They Di's not ever want to leave her. My spin never once asked me for help, now complained. He loved DL but still wanted to see friends and teacher in person. Now the other 3 teachers were trash.[/quote]
