[quote=Anonymous]The fact of the matter is that even if a parent was there supervising zoom and making sure the child was doing what was supposed to be done, in my district at least, there was no learning virtually. It was literally filling time aka wasting time because then when zoom was over, my kindergartener and I were both so done that there was no energy left in me to actually then teach or homeschool him separately afterwards. Zoom consisted of: go resd to yourself for 15 mins (for a child who didnt know how to read), go build blocks, roll the dice and color in how many numbers, share what you did over the weekend, etc. That was not learning in any way. No socialization, nothing. The kids could have had the most involved parents but virtual school for k kids was just checking the box to say something was done and nothing was. Maybe some people then had a tutor to come over after zoom to really teach or some sent their kids to kumon, but the fact of the matter is the current K kids are doing a regular k curriculum in person and will show up to first grade at grade level and prepared socially /academically. The current first graders did and are not. Its complete inequity and its a shame that our education system felt that it was ok for those k kids and their families to get so royally screwed.[/quote]
