[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Complaining on DCUM about how much they don’t want to be back in person[/quote]
Please just stop with this. They apparently believe in science and we as a nation didn’t prioritize doing the the things that needed doing to put everyone back in schools safely. I’d rather have them double down on making DL work than continuing the wishful thinking model that is needed for f2f.

My advice is keep it simple. We did better with more discrete tasks, like math worksheets with problems. Stop with marking up PDFs and just make an easily editable word or google doc. As uninspiring as book reports are, do them and actually grade them and comment on them. We had luck with creative writing projects. My kid has ADHD and just zoned out on the khan academy videos. Links to appropriate documentaries are good. There were a few competitive real time quizzes that worked. Don’t presume a parent can supervise real time during business hours. And please no more stupid science projects that go through my pantry supplies and take up fridge space. This is the year to teach to the test.
