I went to a coffee shop the other day with my sister and worked on lesson plans. We sat two signs next to us inviting people to ask us what we were doing. Some people did and we explained that although we teachers ‘clock out’ at 3pm, the work day is not over for us. As teachers we still have lessons and papers to grade; IEP goals to draft. We also make phone calls to check up on sick kids or inquire about bruises. We work for free after school.
Take the challenge this week and for a day or two sit somewhere and work on your lessons after work. Let people see that your day is not over at 3pm.
