[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has definitely not been our worst year with public education.  Our worst year was in 4th grade, with a teacher who refused to make accommodations for my son's ADHD 504 plan and who belittled him for his issues.  This year has been a much safer year emotionally.[/quote]

Yes, having them zoomed into our homes has really unmasked the weak teachers.[/quote]

From what I hear, zooming into homes has also really unmasked the weak parents. [/quote]

Parents aren’t supposed to be doing the teaching. That’s the difference.

Teachers are on Zoom teaching. Do you understand now?[/quote]

I don’t believe teachers expect parents to be teaching their children. We do hope that parents are supporting teachers and doing what they can to have their children attend virtual classes. I teach an upper level elementary class. I have students leave class every day for a variety of reasons. They will tell me, “My mom needs me,” or “I have to help my dad carry some boxes,” or “I have to take my grandma her food,” etc. I also hear parents call their children during class. I guess one student didn’t respond fast enough, because this past week an adult busted into a room and yelled at the child, “ What in the h*ll are you doing!?” All of zoom class heard this encounter. So, yes, teachers have seen and heard quite a bit as well.[/quote]
