A Day in the Life of a DL Preschool Class
DESCRIPTION:
One thing that can be agreed upon by all educators is that distance learning has been a real challenge, and this is particularly true with young students. In March, the task seemed impossible, but upon trial and error, students have shown resilience, independence and growth. In this walkthrough of our daily class activities, we will go through examples of pedagogical strategies and technological resources that we have found are effective in engaging early learners both in a synchronous and asynchronous mode.
