This is the third time I am trying to post this...it keeps
going to
some other board??
Last year I had morning preps and with our schedule this
meant I had 2-3 times a week that I had 2 in one day.
This year I have afternoon preps and have 2 in one day
less frequently. The real issue though is that by the
time I teach 4 classes and make it to my prep, I am too
drained to do anything! Maybe I get some photocopying or
something done but not clear, creative thinking about
lessons. I then take it home with me and come in the next
day to start all over again. I don't mind bringing work
home but I'd prefer it be grading or reading (I'm an
English teacher), not the bulk of my planning.
Any advice on adjusting to the new schedule? How else do
people use preps productively? Please help! Thanks.

i have no prep time!! I get to school at 6:45 am and usually
leave around 4;30 pm. I have students from 7;05 until 2;30 and
then tutoring on Tuesdaya from 2;30 - 4;15. i have to prep time.
I spend my weekends preparing for school. If i did not have an
aide i would never get away from school.

I know just how you feel, Nantucket! When my prep is in the
mornings I tear through all the work I have to do. If my prep
is in the afternoons, I have a hard time getting anything
done. I am, however, just the opposite in the way I like to
spend my time; I'd much rather plan at home and never take

...I only have a prep every other day, rather than 2 in one
day! Additionally, on the days without one, I teach 6
classes without a break.
When you get good advice, would you share it? While I can't
offer sympathy, I can DEFINITELY relate to what you're saying!
