I do have a one-hour time for any student to get help on assignments daily during our remote days. I teach the introductory and modeled/ guided instruction on Mon./ Tues. then gradually release responsibility of their learning to families on Thur/ Fri which means the skills should be guided if needed by families or are completely independent and practicing.

I am able to meet all the needs of my students since I have a smaller blended class size. I get to monitor/ assess students in person weekly but would continue with a 1:1 assessment time via google meet once a week for math/ reading if we should go fully remote.

I provide an opportunity for social emotional connections on our remote days since we are a blended model. Children are given a topic or prompt to prepare an oral answer for but then are given time to socialize during the second half of our virtual meeting.

I am teaching in person this year, but last year I had class meetings on Zoom. The kids really enjoyed seeing their friends. The parents had positive feedback about the meetings.

I am teaching face to face and do small reading groups. If we get switched to remote at some point I would like to continue doing reading groups through Zoom if I can make the times work with parent schedules.

# data[].attributes.body
Parents are able to contact me through email, phone or remind. The favorite so far is Remind. I do not have set "office hours" since I am teaching in person, but have told parents that the best times to contact me are before or after school. I have let them know that if they contact me during the evening or weekend I am respond, but it may also be the next day or Monday before they get a response depending on their question/need.

The class meetings that (so far) the kids and I have enjoyed the most are ones that we discuss what they have been doing on our Choice Board. I like to take a topic and share a video, book reading and an Art Hub drawing video about it. For example, we talked about giraffes. Each student showed their picture and a fact. Being prepared is key.

I like to meet with my class during our remote days and check in. We have a topic of discussion, usually something we are learning about from our "project day" but not always- sometimes I take their lead and listen to what they want to share too, then assign that as our topic of discussion the following week. I always let them share something on their minds too. Communication is a two-way street. I love listening to what my first-graders are thinking about.

I am teaching face 2 face but last Spring I used Google Meets for daily meetings. We got to just talk to each other and check-in. I had a few kids ask questions or I would then have one-on-one Hangouts with kiddos that needed more help. We did Scavenger Hunts during our Meets and I read books. We even had a few kids read the class books.

I assume (since I'm not doing synchronous sessions yet...) that using a google form to find times that work for small groups would be where I'd start (maybe with reasonable options) during the student day.

Yes, it was extremely hard to keep office hours consistent in the spring when I was remote learning.  Students would get their work done at all hours of the day and to keep up with their progress, I would find myself checking work late at night to give credit. One thing I started doing to help in that area, was establishing a time with the parents on when I would check work.  What worked best for me was to check it the next morning after it was assigned.

I have a class zoom first thing every morning. I find that it helps them get started on the day, and lets them know I am here to support them as they work through their materials for the day. I also use this  time to check in see how they are doing, and do one activity with them.

I look forward to these every day. It's my one chance to get to see all of my students in one place. During this time, I try to keep it consistent. Letter of the day, how many days have we been in school, Magic Tree House Chapter. I agree with Anna, this is a great time to get students to open their chromebooks, log in and get some learning!

# data[].attributes.body
I have found that class meetings to start the day gives me a gage on how the students are feeling and it gives them a reason to turn on their chromebooks on remote days. If the kids are having a rough day I can reach out to the parents through remind or set up a one on one hangout with that student.  It also allows me to then keep some of my struggling learners to do small groups with. The kids are already there in the meeting so we just say good bye to those who have groups later in the day and I keep my below level kids so they don't have an excuse not to show up later.

Small group learning has always been an effective type of learning for young learners. Students can be provided with more targeted instruction that applies to their ability level.
