what are some school related tasks for a typical teaching day from the morning to afternoon at the end of the day?
Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Without knowing what subject you are referring to, the level of education and whether you want to know from the student's or the teacher's perspective, it's difficult to know exactly what to tell you. The sites already posted yesterday should help you (Time Management, etc.)
High school English:
Get to school, pick up mail, go to classroom, and set out graded work to be returned.
Open lesson plan book flat, visible from anywhere around my desk. Put any special instructions for the day on the board.
Bell rings, kids start to come in.
Tardy bell rings, late kids sign in the tardy book. Take care of them later.
Take roll from seating chart (namely, noting the blank seats), answer any questions that come up.
Start lesson... whatever it is for the day ... may be a continuation of the day before, may be new.
About 10-15 minutes before end of class, have students begin on assignment. Walk around to answer questions and make sure kids are on task.
Bell rings. Kids wait until I dismiss them after final reminders.
Repeat four more times during the day.
Conference period at some point -- one period to get errands run, papers graded, plans made, etc.
After last bell, attend or hold any meeting that's needed (department, faculty, etc.), if any.
Pack up anything that needs grading. Go home.
And here's a wonderfully witty look at how teachers usually regard after-school meetings!

A typical teaching day consists of various school-related tasks from morning to afternoon. Here are some examples:
1. Lesson Preparation: At the start of the day, teachers typically review and prepare their lessons. This involves reviewing content, planning activities, and gathering resources to teach effectively.
2. Classroom Setup: Teachers may need to arrange the classroom, ensuring that desks are in order, materials are organized, and any necessary equipment is ready for use.
3. Attendance and Morning Routine: Teachers take attendance to track student attendance. Additionally, they may oversee morning routines such as announcements, distributing materials, or leading a morning meeting.
4. Instruction and Teaching: The majority of the day is dedicated to classroom instruction. Teachers deliver lessons, engage students in activities, answer questions, and facilitate discussions to help students learn and understand the topics being taught.
5. Assessments and Assignments: Teachers evaluate student learning through assessments, such as quizzes, tests, or projects. They may also distribute and collect assignments or homework from students.
6. Individualized Student Support: Throughout the day, teachers provide individual attention to students who need additional support. This can involve assisting with challenging concepts, offering extra guidance, or providing personalized feedback.
7. Collaboration and Meetings: Teachers often engage in professional collaboration with colleagues. This includes participating in team meetings, discussing students' progress, collaborating on curriculum planning, or attending professional development sessions.
8. Breaks and Lunch: Teachers need to take breaks and have lunch to recharge. These periods offer an opportunity to relax, refuel, and interact with colleagues.
9. Classroom Management: Teachers maintain a positive and productive learning environment. They manage student behavior, enforce rules, and address any disruptive situations that may arise.
10. Grading and Documentation: Towards the end of the day, teachers may dedicate time to grading assignments, recording grades, and documenting student progress. They might also update student records and provide feedback to students and parents.
It's important to note that the specific tasks and their order may vary depending on grade level, school policies, subject area, and individual teacher preferences.
