Tomorrow I will fly to Santa-Fe (New Mexico) from where we will drive to Grand Canyons(Arizona) on Saturday. I am really exited about the trip. I am utilising every opportunity ( leave/holiday) to visit and explore various places. Tuesday is 'Veterans Day'. Taking leave on Monday and Wednesday makes, wow! a 5 day trip.
Week long work and tidy journey, exploring places and again back to work... It is tiring.
But it in now or never situation no other go.
The substitute teacher system in American schools tells you about the accountability and professionalism of American teachers. Unlike in the Indian Schools, if you are on leave you are not imposing your work load on your co-workers. Plan the classes and frame the work/activity for the whole 90 minutes so that a substitute teacher (not necessarily from the same Discipline) can engage the class comfortably. He/She monitors the class, collects the work sheets make them ready for you to grade. The curriculum map once framed will not (need not) be disturbed (mostly) even in your absence. It makes you more accountable on your leave and absence. It manages the time, maintains the tempo.
