[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers are lazyAF.

They just want to sit at home on their couches and still get paid what they normally would. Totally taking advantage of the situation.[/quote]

HAHAHAHA. You are so out of touch with what’s actually happening. Does it make you feel better to insult people you don’t even know?[/quote]

So address the fact that many are doing no actual teaching. No teaching videos, no live zoom instruction. Just put up assignments, that’s it.

[b]If kids don’t automatically know what to do (and how would they if it’s new content?)[/b] parents have to take time out of their work day to show them.[/quote]

What will they do when they encounter something new in their lives, and you aren't around, and a teacher hasn't done a live or pre-recorded lesson for them? What do you do when you don't know or can't remember something? Google it. Point them to Khan Academy or YouTube or dozens of other sites. Get them workbooks or textbooks. Let them try and figure it out first, and help them only if they get stuck. Direct instruction isn't even needed in most cases, especially if classmates can work together to figure things out.

Yeah, I'm definitely pointing my first grader to Google and YouTube.  "Figure it out, Johnny!"[/quote]

I should have told my 2nd grader to google bar graphs and figure it out, I guess.
