[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS teacher here.  We ALL know parents like the OP. And we all feel so sorry for their kids.  We get why these poor kids have  issues.

Hey OP:  we DO talk about you at lunchtime. [/quote]

You shouldn’t be in teaching - you should be fired.

Parents work hard for the taxes that pay your salary. Many of us have also had to convert from in-person work to remote work. We didn’t get three weeks to prepare and then the ability to be productive only a fraction of the work day.

The questions are simple: What prep was actually done before this week? Why only 40 minutes of instruction?

But instead of answering questions about the pathetic instruction MCPS has provided despite three weeks of prep and for ES only 40 minutes of instruction, you mock them.

I'm not a teacher but wanted to point out whats should be obvious to anyone with an IQ of 90 or more- KIDS ARE NOT THE SAME AS ADULTS.  Online meetings are pretty normal for most adults; even if they aren’t you know you have to engaged, professional, and get results.

Try keeping a bunch of children- or even teens- on track over Zoom.  They have whatever environment they’re stuck with at home- maybe noisy, distracting, and who knows what the tech is like at home.

Why don’t you give additional tasks if you think they need more- workbooks, reading assignments etc.  [/quote]
