I share my own experience of feeling overwhelmed with grading and how I successfully pivoted to maintain my boundaries and prevent taking work home. It is important to recognize that English teachers shouldn't have to work significantly more than our counterparts, and I explore strategies for streamlining priorities in the classroom. Let's look at the power of focusing on essential skills, making deliberate choices in curriculum planning, and adapting when time constraints arise. How can we create a more manageable grading workload without sacrificing the quality of the student learning experience? Tune in for practical tips to help you overcome grading challenges and find balance.
