How do we navigate through getting enough time to teach our students while tending to their social emotional learning?

When going remote, class sizes doubles because now we are supporting not only the students, but also their grandparents, parents, baby sitters, etc. Even though these resources are pushed out (laptops and hot spots), we can't expect families to know how to use it. Hot spots are also pretty spotty...

Creating equity by providing students with what they might need to get started on a project. No assumptions about what they have at home.

- Going in as if these students have absolutely nothing and provide everything for students. Don’t make the assumption that these students have it at home. Offering a ray of things such as gas cards, food, supplies, etc.

- Social emotional learning is the biggest thing that is focused on. How do we help these students navigate their feelings remotely? Provide resources to help students navigate through their feelings on a google doc, having SEL coaches on site and/or having students take a survey.

- Some schools in the district will set up a hot spot in a certain area, like a parking lot, so students can show up and learn that way.

- Provide visuals so students/parents can understand how/where to go virtually. You can do this by providing pictures of where to click, etc.
