[quote=Anonymous]Taking a little break now to look at DCUM... I've been at the computer all day planning next week's lessons.  I have to plan 4th grade reading lessons (1/2 hour long pull-out -- I'm a special ed teacher); 3rd grade whole group reading lessons (we are using a new curriculum based on a week-long professional seminar I attended at Columbia Teachers College this summer); two 3rd grade guided reading group lessons, at different reading levels; 4th grade writing pull-out lessons; separate 3rd grade reading pull-out lessons for students who are reading significantly below reading level; 3rd grade math lessons; and 5th grade reading pull-out lessons.  Oh yes, and then I have to email regarding two IEP meetings I have to schedule, plan for taking data for students on my caseload; and figure out what I'm going to do with my mentor this week.

Because I enjoy what I do, it's bearable.  Being a lawyer at a big law firm, which is what I was in my prior life, was unbearably boring.  
However, I don't know how much longer I can work this hard.  [/quote]
