Similar to Shaina's point, it's been a little challenging to plan with Kinder being that they are still getting used to the routine of school and tasks take a lot longer to complete in the beginning.

I always like to provide an essential or, umbrella question for my students at the beginning of the lesson to give them an idea of what they should be able to do by the end of the lesson.

Pacing is usually my struggle. I struggle with trying to keep pace with the curriculum pace guide. Also, my lesson plans feel overly long and time consuming.

For me it was difficult to find out where to start. I found myself overwhelmed with the amount of information in Atlas especially starting with new preps

The most challenging aspect so far has been managing time to plan lessons. Attending to tasks in the moment each day was my focus last week. I saved most of my lesson planning for the weekend. I would like to manage my time during preps better to plan during the school day.

I am having a difficult time finding different activities each day to reinforce the lessons each day.

Create fun interpersonal activities and close the class.

Sometimes I find it difficult to adjust pacing and worried if I am giving too much time or less time on their assignments.

Trying to plan the different activities ahead of time and making sure the kids keep up. Some activities took less time than I planned for, and others took longer, so figuring out what to do when that happens.

Lesson planning for classes I push into with a co-teacher.

Since I do not have to write formal lesson plans. I have to find time to do different assessments with my students and manage the rest of the class with the staff. So I guess it would be more so planning the classroom time effectively so I can assess while the other students are doing busy work as well.

Keeping up with the pace of the lesson. Kindergarteners are still learning the concept of school so everything moves a lot slower. We are finding that we aren't touching on everything we planned.

I struggle to actually determine the lesson plan and fill in the weekly form. I am not sure how thorough I should be.
Also, I am accustomed to setting a weekly goal. I find planning  daily lessons challenging because it's hard for me to know what I am going to be doing on Friday by Sunday.

Can we use the same assessment method (completion of work) for our planning in a PreK classroom?

Since I see students in small groups who all have different therapy goals, it can be a challenge to plan something that can graded up and down for all (versus having lots of different plans for each group!)

I find it is sometimes difficult to space out the lessons and finish in time according to the schedule for the week.

# data[].attributes.body
Sometimes it is difficulty to keep up with the pacing, especially if the class is lacking in some subject areas

# data[].attributes.body
I know that I have to follow the pacing guide that school suggests but sometimes could not cover the whole unit of curriculum because I am teaching struggling students mostly.

# data[].attributes.body
I am also adjusting to teaching and preparing for 42 minute periods compared to 55 minute periods at my previous school district.

As a whole, they are finishing projects quicker than I anticipated and I don’t want to run through the unit too quickly.

I think that understanding the progression of the lesson is important and can be hard in the Writers and Readers workshop.

I am always worried that I will not be able to make it through all the units of the curriculum.

# data[].attributes.body
My previous school had 50 minute blocks so planning for 40 minute time frames to fit in everything is an adjustment. Sometimes my students struggle with getting settled so we may not even make it to parts of the lesson

Sometimes I have a rockstar planning ready to go, but unpredictable things could happen and the timing part could be off.
