[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most elementary school students (heck, most people of any age) don’t or have the stamina for hours of continuous online learning.  The day is broken up that way so our kids can get a necessary mental and physical break to come back ready to engage again.  Believe me, I know how much it sucks because it feels like one my kids is always on break and I basically get no work done all day, but the alternative isn’t necessarily better for them.[/quote]

I understand and agree 100%.. But, why aren't teachers taking advantage of the additional time to have more 1:1 with students or small group sessions? Our main teacher is live for less than 2 hours T-Th. What is the point of Monday as an asynchronous day? The teachers in our entire grade take turns crafting the week's schedule, and there isn't much grading happening...[/quote]

There’s a lot of prep work between instruction. It all isn’t done on Monday.

I know teachers aren’t chilling the other 4 hours, but it’s mostly time spent burning off technical debt. [/quote]
