Keeping It Simple Being a teacher does not end at 3pm. It is an ever-engaging career. Many times we can't find enough time in the morning or during the day. to put our all into our each lesson. Here are some simple changes you can make to speed your day: 1. Use Rubrics More - Rubrics really clarify the expectations for both students and teachers. Show the students the rubric before they begin on the task they will be evaluated on. 2. Realize That You Don't Have To Reinvent the Wheel - When planning your lesson make sure to check our Lesson Plans Center. Get ideas and even whole lessons from teacher tested plans. 3. Use Forms and Templates - Use forms to help you record routines. These can be used to monitor students that leave the classroom and even behavior. 4. Create Checklist for Yourself - We spend much of our day just trying to figure out what we need to do next. Why not create a daily checklist for yourself. Teachers become a Teach-nology member now!
