[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And now you see the problem teachers face. Half the parents are demanding 8 hours of live DL a day. The other half doesn’t want to have to show up for anything live. [/quote]

The school needs to use its expertise and not just do what they think “parents want.” They should do what works and is realistic for most students. This will vary by age. They may also have to offer synchronous and asynchronous options.[/quote]

Right. With work hours and juggling child care not everyone can be off work to help their kids with live lessons.  Unless half the city is okay with just having most things closed every morning including DC government services. Pretty sure the Mayor isn't approving all DC government office being closed so parents can help their kids with school.  Or all the 7/11s, shops  and restaurants closing either.

So, schools need to be offering am lessons and afternoon lessons. Maybe having Families sign up and particularly schools with 2 or more of each grade. Maybe one teacher Am 8-11 and another the 12-3 ?? Idk.
Or kids have the option of pre-recorded lessons and work books or something.  The TV lessons and YouTube were a good help for a lot of folks I imagine.  Though they need more parent coaching & instructions in different languages.
This all is crazy. Most parents and caregivers what their kids to learn and will try to keep up with the work in whatever form they are able.  We just can't all be home or do it the same way.[/quote]
