[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids school has no homework and teachers get a daily planning/work period of over an hour a day. I have no idea how they claim they are working so many extra hours. Standing around talking, I guess.[/quote] It takes me 15 minutes to comment on one essay. I have 80 essays. That’s 20 hours of sustained grading for that assignment alone. They also took a test. They are easier to grade, so maybe 10 minutes each. That’s over 13 hours of sustained grading. That’s 33 hours for two assignments I collected this week, essentially a second job. So here’s where you write back and tell me how you could do my job better. You’ll tell me not to assign work (which is why there is a current thread about high school English teachers not teaching how to write). Or you’ll tell me I should have expected that when I became a teacher (even though all I’m doing is correcting your misconception above). I’ve heard it all.[/quote]
