[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You guys. An elementary aged kid can't listen to a teacher talk for 2.5 - 3 hours out of the day and actually absorb what is being said. Middle elementary kids have attention spans of like 15 minutes. Then they need to practice things a little or take a break. It would be absurd to have a 2.5 - 3.5 hour chunk of time with the teacher talking to the kids over the computer continuously the entire time. And your kid would hate it and not learn much. In school, they do a little mini lesson on the rug, then they get up and do independent work such as rotating stations with worksheets, computer work, math games, group work, etc.[/quote] You can’t recreate in person school online. You are right-it doesn’t work. That’s what people are saying all through the thread. You have to be creative and use your imagination. FCPS should have talk to the teachers who did a great job in spring, find out what they did, and replicate it. [/quote]
