Notes:
Do not overload your daily schedule - reduce content delivery - less is more - be selective.
Consider variation and engagement.
Be mindful of Ss situations at home - stressed families, no/shared devices, limited modeling/support, etc.
Community (connecting) is more important than content - let Ss know you will be reaching out to them in person (through phone call or other means) each week.
