Hi Christina,
With any new job (and, yes, four years still makes it a new
job) there is an almost overload of work at the beginning. It
takes at least 5 years in teaching to start to feel like you
are on top of things.
Often, teachers are very conscientious and we try to do it
all. You have to give yourself permission to let some things
go. As well, we need to work smarter - not harder. Sometimes
we do so much for our kids that we do too much! We need to
step back and get them to do more.

If you need to chat, please let me know. I am currently in a
3/4 position, but have taught 4/5 in the past. I am happy to
help.

Lisa
