I heard a commercial on the radio for Verizon that said something to the effect that parents are now learning how to lesson plan. Are any of you off the hook for lesson planning? Just wondering because I’m over here busting my butt!

Getting a kid on a schedule is not lesson planning.

They just have NO idea! 😂

Yeah no—they have no idea what goes into lesson planning. Having a schedule is not a lesson plan. Keeping your own kid on a schedule is not a lesson plan.

We were given the same directive that we get every year...lesson plans must be “this and that” and must be submitted by 8 am Monday morning.
We’re on a hybrid also. Htf are we supposed to do ordinary lesson plans? I actually believe lesson plans as they have us do them we’re a huge waste of time; time better spent grading, find weak spots, working with students creating better assignments etc.

Most of my students are checking in but it’s doubtful they are there the majority of the period as their cameras are broken or they have anxiety and all I can do is ask them to turn on their cameras. I will stop the Zoom call and 3 names are still on the screen and not responding to me.

Not at all. Still doing ALL the lesson planning...

I am, but only because I changed jobs and schools. I am now facilitating all of the distance learning kids who are working through two different web-based curriculum providers. This allows our classroom teachers to ONLY work with the face-to-face kids. Unless of course the schools close again in which case they will then move their content online with their same kids and my kids and I will continue on as if nothing happened.

I have recorded all day today and yesterday.
I keep changing my top so it looks like different days. I volunteered for 2nd grade asynchronous with 2 live open office hours a day. I was still recuperating from back surgery and my principal and I thought it best...plus no one else wanted it...lol. I am allowed to work from home which is a blessing and a curse. I don’t stop working...like ever. People who chose to go to school everyday are having constant computer glitches where they lose sometimes up to 15 mins of instruction. No one realizes the work put in... the little OCD touches we put on everything...
and the countless hours spent tracking our students to ensure they are learning.

There is STILL no compass for being a teacher. There is no idea what our work consists of in COVID or in the classroom.

They also think they’re “homeschooling” because they told their kid to sit down and get on the computer 🙄
They have literally no idea.

To all the post-9/11 veterans, it’s a somber day that unites us all in the reason we fought. It’s easy to forget - especially with the younger generation having 9/11 be a history lesson rather than something they lived through. The waters became muddy with two wars and politicians, but you all stepped up and did your duty. Thank you all for your service, it’s an honor whether we crossed paths or not.

I am trying to incorporate activities where my students get to choose their own clips for independent practice with these skills and need a variety to draw from.

I got an email last night from a 7th-grade parent because her son said I mentioned the words "male privilege" in class, and she is very concerned about how that is related to ELA (she said "reading"), and she is concerned about this being taught in public schools. To be clear, I didn't do a lesson on this subject but we did discuss rights versus privileges. I've had multiple parents contact the school/get upset with me because of things like his. It's exhausting... Thoughts?
