Lots of teacher engagement in DL especially.
Teachers collaborating on anything -- supporting a particular student to cross-curricular lessons. Collaboration seems much harder in DL.

Currently, we are trying our best to reach out to the students of all ability groupings from all background by including examples to which they can relate to. However, it can be more effective if we can introduce, for example, the content vocabulary in form of a game or crossword puzzle. We can also include phenomena and stories to which students can resonate with.

I would love to see more Art and Music, kids love these, they reduce anxiety and give all kids more ways to show their strengths while also providing enrichment and context for all other content areas.

This has been very helpful in meeting the SEP's in science during DL.

Tutoring opportunities are necessary. Short-term tutoring between teachers and students are going to be a key piece needed to support learning. $ for tutoring needed > A tutoring plan will need to take effect and created. How will it look? Times of tutoring? Funding?

Social studies is a great class to have discussions. My students have enjoyed socratic seminars, and four corner activities during in person learning.

To meet the demands of pivoting to distance learning more time was given for teachers to prepare and collaborate. How can we maintain some of this?

Social studies is great for group projects such as making posters, flipping the classroom for students to become the teacher and teach on a subject they have researched, and creating news papers about Civil War battles.

More support for students who are significantly below grade level

# data[].attributes.body
Many of the resources/much of the curricula that we have access to is not available (or at least not easily available) to students who are more than 2-3 years below grade level. More specific supports for helping these students access the curriculum are needed.

Is it horrible to say that teachers need money set aside for their classrooms?( maybe funds from PTA or department budgets) We need pens, pencils, staplers, colored pencils, markers, scissors etc. I'm talking about basic school supplies.

# data[].attributes.body
Teachers must continue to allow time for students to learn - this may take time, and students should have the time needed to make discoveries. Inquiry-based learning/project-based learning - these practices take time and can work as long as teachers aren't cornered by time and other issues.

Students need time/place/space to study at home, support from families in providing a quiet place to do homework or zoom.

Need support for learners more than one level below grade level in science.

Faster internet for all
Many students can not use gizmos or other sites due to low bandwidth or many users at home.

Our STEMScopes website is slow on many days.

Our school WiFi is really slow on random days

Students need time away from their life at home to complete assignments. Free from babysitting younger siblings.

Parents need clear communication. some do not check their emails, some cannot attend our school functions or meetings due to their work schedule.

We probably need more programs for families to encourage family engagement. It may sound like a primary school idea, but inviting a parent to share stories in relation to the content might be a good idea for students to be bought in. Field-based research shows that such activities lower the affective barrier of students and thus promote their learning.

The organization of the Google Drive awesome resources of teachers across the district (for Social Studies) helped tremendously.😃

More cross-curricular projects
Science can study body systems and ELA can write a report about a health condition and then make a presentation (we used to do this at Bayside -- so much learning went on!). we could add SS by finding a way health affected a population like the plague or mass migrations of peoples

Whatever it is to be chosen...please, please, please...it must have a Spanish translation.

NEWSELA- for spanish immersion, this is an invaluable tool.

Schools need to have enough translators for meetings, (IEPS/parent teacher conferences/back to school night/informational meetings about hybrid). This could also be beneficial to have for kids when they come to school and are greeted with temperature check and healthline app check.

We should be 1-1 and every kid has a computer; we need to build in support for the long haul.

We need 1 chromebook per student.
All students should be able to bring this home.
All students who need hotspots should have them with no data caps.
We need ethernet ports at each desk in the classroom. (If we need to maintain social distancing next year, how can we have meaningful group work without an absolutely solid connection.

We will pilot a new curriculum of science and adopt it IF we find it relevant to NGSS guidelines. In addition to this, I would like to incorporate topics students are experiencing in real time. For instance, impact of human activities on environment; impact of pandemic on academia. We prepare our students to have a "Solutionary" stance to see what they can do to help at their level.
