[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The ignorance is just so endless. I woke up at 3 am today and planned, recorded and uploaded videos for lessons for next week, planned and subsequently led two 45 minute guided reading sessions, led a morning meeting, called three families for 20 minute one-on-one sessions, held an open lunch office hour and provided individualized support in using a remote learning website to a student and parent during that time, updated our class blog and more. It’s 1 and I’ve been working for 10 hours and won’t be done for several more. [/quote]

Thank you for this! I am so sick of people asserting that teachers aren't working just because their kid had one our of live instruction. There are multiple classes happening a day, plus admin meetings, plus tutoring, plus office hours, plus the expectation of calls to kids
 who aren't engaging. Then there's the time it takes to plan a lesson, create and upload all the assignments and grade assignments.[/quote]

What about the special teachers who we have barely heard from? They are being paid still. Some of the regular teachers are barely working either.[/quote]

Are you in a DCPS school or a charter? You need to raise this as an issue because it is school specific. The sped teachers are in our virtual classes and also doing the normal pull-outs virtually. The one on one attention now from sped teachers at my charter is better because there are fewer distractions.[/quote]
