[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At least for my kid, morning meeting - even if it was just for 5 minutes- was super helpful just to tell the kids the plan for the day. A bit of daily structure helped EVERYONE in my house focus and prepare.[/quote]

I love this idea! I wish our PK and K teachers did even a five minute morning meeting each day just to orient on what should be done for the rest of the day and what the goals/lessons will be.[/quote]

Another parent here (PK3). I really like this idea too, and I say that as someone with very low enthusiasm for DL at the PK level generally. This is something we basically already do in our house on high stress days where we know we’re not going to have as much time for our littlest. We plan ahead, give the day a theme, and then sit the kids down to introduce the theme to them (it’s usually “patience” or “being independent” lol) and tell them the plan for the day. This is the only way we survive days where one of us has to be out of the house and the other has a deadline or a full slate of calls/meetings.

If we got something like that out of DL, and it was short and came with lessons activities we could set up, I could see it being really beneficial for our 3 year old and working with our family’s limitations as well. Our biggest concern is having long DL sessions that don’t hold her attention because we’ve found she becomes antsy and difficult if forced to engage via screen for long periods, and it takes a lot of time and effort to get her back on track after.[/quote]
