My MS kid had none from all teachers except 1. That teacher asked them to read 3 pages of a chapter and answer 3 questions that related to the reading. The others just posted messages about enjoying the days off.
My HS kids had some assignments that were due those days that had previously been assigned. Both received some work to do but it was basically busy work and no instructional videos were posted at all by any of their teachers.
It seems like this was a common trend throughout all the grades from speaking with different parents.
NP. Our Kindergartener was sent home with a bunch of worksheets plus several assignments via her Chromebook. Took approximately 3 hours to complete each day, with extensive cajoling from me (while juggling WFH/meetings myself). Not much, I know, but I was surprised at how hands on I had to be with the Chromebook. So thankful she wasn’t in school during the height of virtual learning last year.
I’m trying to make contingency plans for Thanksgiving week now. I would hope that, if they decide to go asynchronous those 2 days, they go ahead and notify families this week.
