[quote=Anonymous]I don’t think people comprehend teaching. It’s like this. I write 9 one-act plays every day for the following day- phonics, reading groups (3), math, math groups (3) science/social studies. Then I perform them. Luckily my planning is at the end of the day so I have time to think how those lessons went and write the next days’s plans. Obviously my 45 minute planning isn’t enough time to write these plans and grade and have IEP/504/data meetings and meet with parents so often the planning is fine around 10pm. Grading happens in the morning before school. I get a 45 minute lunch (now) to decompress. This job is really multiple people’s job. Likening this to a play, I’m the playwright, all of the actors, stagehands, directors, costume people, ushers, head of the house, etc. We all joke we need to hire a secretary since the data entry and testing itself takes a few additional hours each week. It’s exhausting and young adults know they can find easier jobs where they earn much more. [/quote]
