New Teacher - Prep period??

Hi y’all new teacher here! This’ll be my first full year teaching (last year I joined late) and I work in special education, so we have lots of behaviors, we have to adapt all our lessons, and we have IEPs.

And we just got told they’re taking a prep period away from us. So we’ll have basically 45 minutes every day for prep and that’s it. We are also expected to have lunch duty where we take turns watching the kids in the cafeteria.

I’m so stressed because I have no idea how I am supposed to get everything done in 45 minutes that has to get done to be successful. Any advice?? I really want to limit overtime and burn out but I don’t see how that’s possible.
