This is the life of so many Australian teachers right now - planning, teaching, marking, and connecting with their students and colleagues far beyond regular school hours, whilst trying to make sense of shifting educational policies and conflicting health advice #auspol #aussieED
Teaching my entire class remotely tomorrow even though Morrison doesn’t want me to. I just finished 2 hours of planning and will be online from 9-3 tomorrow and correcting work well into the night before planning for Tuesday. I’m not at home because it’s easier.
