More than 1.2 million teachers in front of their class concluded this Friday the intensive session of the School Technical Council (CTE) and the teacher training workshop before the start of the 2024-2025 school year.
Primary and secondary school principals said that free textbooks (LTG) were also delivered to schools to begin distributing them to students this Monday, when school activities resume.
In various schools, planning for the first project of the cycle has also begun, as well as cleaning and organizing furniture, in which parents also participated.
Teachers in front of a group pointed out that after the registration and re-registration periods concluded yesterday, We begin planning the pedagogical activities, which include a recovery period that allows students to resume their learning processes and times.
.
Luisa Hernández, a fourth grade elementary school teacher in the Coyoacán municipality, highlighted that in her school, where more than 400 students attend full-time classes, We have practically all the groups saturated, and that demands more planning for us as teachers, since we must distribute the time very well in each activity and define very carefully which projects we are going to develop.
.
Efrén Pardo, a history teacher at a daytime high school in the Cuauhtémoc municipality, indicated that the first week It will be an induction, because students entering the first year must be given time to adapt, so we begin with activities so that they get to know the campus and their school community.
.
Preschool, primary and secondary school principals noted that Once again, we had little time to review the educational materials before they were delivered to the students, which reduces our ability to plan and define the best practice or strategy to be included in the activities of both classroom and school projects.
.
They added that on this return to school We are still under a lot of pressure, because parents have to be included in many more activities than in previous pedagogical models, and that entails reaching out to convince them that, even though everyone has to work, they must dedicate valuable time to their children and join in the activities planned for them.
