What is your max class size for the year? Is that number based on a virtual or in person classroom?

Don’t know yet. We know kids will be split M-T will be last names A-L. TH-F will be last names M-Z. My largest class at this time is 28 kids but that could change. In the past, the rosters have been equally balanced between last names (have a class with no surnames A-E but have a ton of S names). The district only expects 10% to stay home. So ideally it would be about 13 but I envision have classes of 5 to start the week and 20 to end the week.

*disclaimer* I work in a really small district! We’re adding a new section to every grade (except mine 4th because it’s a small class) so that we can have between 11-12 kids in a classroom. Our absolute max allowed with the size of our classrooms is 14. My room is integrated and has 13 next year but we have myself my co teacher and a 1-1 aid. It’s not clear if teachers should be counted in that 14. The other 2 sections are 16 and 15 so I’m wondering how this will all work 🤷‍♀️. Everyone in the school with a teaching degree basically has been moved to a classroom teaching position. Waiting for that meeting where admin talks to teachers to ask my 67 and counting questions lol!

Also we’re going back in person 4 days and 1 day will be virtual for a deep clean!

A max of 16 students M-F for elementary

MWFTR alternating days for ms and Hs

Organization is critical for classroom management. Try assembling units into Google Slides with links to ppts, activities, etc. Color code them according to the rainbow: Unit 1 red, Unit 2 orange etc. It takes a minute at first but the payoff is a one click upload for next year! PS I use the same color code system with felt tip pens to grade my classes: 1st hr red, 2nd hr orange etc.

Good evening everyone,

I have to rant and seek advice. It’s my 5th year teaching overall. I’m a 1st year at a new district it’s been really nice except for just some very small inconveniences: no classroom budget, too many meetings during planning time, printers are so bad that I had to bring mine from home, my district gives teachers chromebooks for laptops. I’m a a point where if I was invited to come back next year I’d say tell them no, am I crazy, is it just me? Please help

There’s also so much about closing that I don’t understand and I feel like I’m bothering the higher-ups on the team whenever I ask. *end anxiety post*
