In NEITHER school will we be going against the union injunction but as soon as that is lifted we will start. I sat with a few other English teachers and we began planning and, yup, it is going to take TONS of time in the initial phase plus checking and grading kids journals, 4 or 5 classes worth, often even after we are done with the original plans. I, for one, wouldn't mind financial renumeration for all of this extra work for a change. Note, I am also leaving out my opinion of the lit. module since it seems that teachers' opinions on what/how we teach are irrelevent anyhow.
