We are blown away by the persistence and flexibility you all have shown this week! It is amazing to see all of you embrace this with open arms and be totally open to continuous learning! This is why Mason is such an incredible place - YOU make a difference!!
All learning should be half the time a child would be doing in school.
Some things to consider:
Since much of the world is learning remotely, it may be helpful to share with your parents that logging into sites may take longer than normal.
Parents will not be familiar with these tools. If it's something you haven't used a lot - you may want to see if a parent info sheet is available to share.
Educators around the world are facing unprecedented challenges in the wake of coronavirus. As it is becoming harder to connect with each other in person, it is imperative that we find other ways to connect with our colleagues and strategize. To this end, Lucy Calkins will be leading an impromptu webinar on March 19th, 4:00-5:00 PM (ET) designed to bring educators together so we can learn from each other.
