I have only been teaching at the school for a few days, and the actual teaching has been fine – BUT the mental stress of lesson planning for after spring break has just killed my brain. I can barely think and go to bed very early after the days..:p I have sorted out a way to plan without getting overwhelmed though. I am going to do one subject every day – focus on gathering the materials and what I plan to do each day for a week. It will still be a lot for me to handle because I have never lesson planned on my own. I got support from the other two teachers for where to pull material, but it will still be quite different! I am trying to stay calm and just take each day at a time, so as not to worry. I am also not going to think about it this weekend (at least not at the front of my mind!) So I can have a bit of a break before I plan.
Personal day 16, started late! (going to finish all 31 into April)
Keep at it and you’ll get it done.
At the beginning of your career planning is all consuming. It’ll get easier!
