[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In high school we are told to NOT assign new work for Mondays or even have work that is all due on Monday because that is a day the kids need to catch up, attend office hours, etc. Before that there were teachers who would assign a days worth of work or schedule tests on Mondays and the kids couldn’t handle it, so they made it a no new work or tests day. [/quote] Assigning work is not teaching or educating. If you assing my child a bunch of homework on Mondays, that is not educating them, and that is why parents don't want it. We should have 5 synchronous days like many many virtual school districts do. The original reason for the Mondays off was for hybrid - because 5 couldn't be evenly divided in two. We all know how that turned out for secondary students. [/quote] Ok but as long as Monday is asynchronous, we can’t teach. We CAN hold office hours for assistance but students literally never show up. [/quote]
