[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it interesting that many families who wanted socialization as the main reason for choosing hybrid are now saying the parts of DL that offer that are a waste of time. To a parent those times may seem unimportant but it’s really some of the kids favorite part of the day. Why would you deny them time to talk with their classmates?[/quote]

Because we do not believe this is “socialization” perhaps?[/quote]

“If my kid can’t socialize in person he will ONLY DO MATH.”

Make it make sense. [/quote]

DP.  It doesn’t. But then it does explain why they were so desperate for two days a week of “socialization” before.  Morning meeting was absolutely the best part of distance learning for young kids. Maybe these parents don’t know what morning meeting is? It’s basically show and share. Kids love it. A bright start to an otherwise dismal day![/quote]

In person socialization is a very different thing than online socialization. My introverted child hated the morning meeting part of DL in the spring, she didn't want anyone to call on her to share something about her day/weekend/life (she was fine with answering academic questions, but didn't want to do the social stuff). There were definitely mornings where she tried to stall so she didn't have to do that part.[/quote]
