Our staff kicked butt to help as much as they could in many many ways to the best of their abilities to support teachers and families!!

Negative: As a teacher with 2 young children it was a struggle to teach and be mom. I felt like I was just barely doing both.

So many students were not able to get the internet nor the support they needed at home. They didn't have the environment they needed to learn.

Hands on learning was put on parents more than teachers for lower grade students which made it more difficult.

Struggle:  some groups very involved, others very disengaged.  Students saw my specials class as optional.  Focus was more on Math/ELA/Science classes.

Struggle:  Online learning does not necessarily fit into the "brick and mortar" model.  If we have to do online learning - we need to think outside the box in how we structure the online model.

I was able to make comments for my students who didn't have the most reliable internet and accessed PowerPoint that I shared in much the same way that Billie described and the students who were engaged in this way were receptive to the feedback and worked to correct pieces where needed.
I also learned how to work with the commenting pieces within google classroom.

Postive:
As a whole, I am so proud of Swain County Schools for feeding so many in our community and our willingness to provide technology to so many.
Within my classroom I am most proud of my parents that took on a role that they have never filled before. In kindergarten, so much of the participation relied on families.

Positive:  Some groups used the Meet time for game-based learning (iCivics, Kahoot, shared slides presentation) and social connection.

-Hard time meeting the needs for kids who did not have good internet connection and communication.
