Within the classroom, students and teachers have instructional and academic learning time. Schools have limited distractions from the outside the classroom but we are still struggling with time inside the classroom. Teachers and students are often interrupted by announcements, fire drills, phone calls from the office, attendance, and the list goes on.
Once students are in the classroom they are on class time. When students walk into school they are on school time, but within the school day students transition to other classes, have lunch, use the restroom! Of course we will keep this time, but what about time that is scheduled for learning. Time in school is used in a variety of ways, but where do we find more time for learning? School days are filled with lots of distractions and disruptions. We cannot take back the time we lost from Covid but there is time for filling in the gaps in learning.
The lyrics of A Hazy Shade of Winter by Simon & Garfunkel can awaken what teachers and administrators feel when they are trying to find more time for learning. Time, time,time, see what’s become of me… A Hazy Shade of Winter by Simon & Garfunkel
