[quote=Anonymous]For 10/10/2013 20:43, you said that you have no actual lunch break, that you eat with and supervise your students. You may be in a private school, but if you're in a public school system, I hope you're aware that you're likely entitled to a duty-free lunch. Something to check on. I feel for you!

Anyhoo.... OP, I struggle with a lot of these issues too. Here's one thing I've found, in addition to all the great tips already mentioned. It's a lot more time consuming and stressful to plan one day at a time, especially for multiple subjects. I try to plan a week and a subject at a time. Ex: Mondays, I plan 5 days of language arts; Tuesdays, the next five days of math, etc.

Also, even if your school does not departmentalize at all, you can save some time and stress by pairing up with a colleague. Say you both want to do science lessons A and B. You prep A, she preps B. You each teach your own classes one day, then another day switch kids so you do A twice and she does B twice.

Good luck! I wish I were better at the balancing act too.[/quote]
