Planning
By NJ Teacher

Clip to ScrapBook   
We have 30 minutes a day in grades K-2 in our school (which goes up to third grade), In third grade, we have 30 minutes for gym (on two days a week), 35 minutes for music, 45 minutes for art and 45 minutes for library. We have a prep each day. We also have a 40 minute enrichment time, where the enrichment teacher comes into our room. We aren't supposed to leave, even though she's certified, but we do leave to run things off, use the bathroom or make a quick phone call. I use the time to do planning within the classroom and use the computer. What irks me is that at the 4-5 building, all their preps are at least 40 minutes long, and they have teachers to teach Spanish and computers. We have to teach those subjects ourselves.
