The Demand for Inclusion & the Lack of Planning Time

Hello all.  Sorry I'm chiming in so late but it's been a long week.  For all of those out there who are trying to balance your own classes plus trying to find time to plan with your gen. ed. teacher, you know the meaning of my title.  You have the morning sessions in an inclusion setting but your planning time does not match your co-teacher's planning time.  You're covered up the rest of the day with your own classes and, what do you know, your co-teacher has his/her planning period during that time.  So, you do what any good teacher would do; you come in really early or stay super late, depending on what your co-teacher can do.  I have just described my school day in a nut shell.  Have you found yourself in a similar situation?  How do we alleviate this conundrum?  I feel it is imperative that the sped. and gen. ed. teacher work collaboratively to plan for the upcoming lessons but there is only so much time in a day.  There must be a practical solution to this problem.  I urge everyone to reply.  All suggestions are welcome.  I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful Labor Day weekend and I look forward to reading everyone's posts.
