Got to school at 7:30 and was there teaching/planning/meeting until 4:00. 8.5 hours at school
The life of a teacher includes realizing on certain days that your students are lost. On days like that, I have to rethink what we need to do next. Often that includes creating something new...today was such a day. My students STRUGGLED with the content so I took their work from class today and created a student work evaluation activity based on it. Then, I designed a partner activity to use as closure. Both things I haven't done before. It's been a LOOONG evening.
Got home and had non-professional things to do from 4-7:45. Started grading/planning/creating at 7:45. I'm finishing all that stuff RIGHT NOW. 11:15. 3.5 hours at home.
Hours worked today 12
Total hours worked this year: 364
Salary for the year: $44,784
I'm making: $123.03 per hour
I'm going to be tired tomorrow. Please, classroom gods, make tomorrow a day in which students engage with the material and something clicks for them. I don't really know how else to explain this topic. Feeling at a loss. :(
