Isn't it also, a little bit, for a substitute that might need to come in and take over?
I love the planning more than the teaching.
I am a planner by nature. Unfortunately, it does not mean I am *good* at it. I have my "plan" for the rest of this year almost written out. It includes holidays, the kids sports days, meal plans (ideas), a basic cleaning schedule and exercise schedule....
I just can't help myself! That's what I do for fun! LOL
BUT, I think the fact that teachers have to do all that is very ridiculous. They should be able to have an outline of the plan and then fill in what was actually done (or keep a portfolio). Martha's example is CRAZINESS! What have we come to?!
