Give them a chance to interact and pause on content

# data[].attributes.body
important to remember that amount of content instruction that can be accomplished during the first few weeks while engaging in PBIS/community building/teaching of procedures

SPED is at somewhat of an advantage here because we've had students in

Teachers may have to look at a variety of instructional models based on the makeup of in-person vs. remote students

Life skills will look at some overflow classroom settings to accommodate various instructional modalities

Paras are overwhelmingly happy with kids coming back and will roll with what we have...flexibility for the win!

It's been frustrating seeing the demands on students from content area classes this year while we were supposed to be focusing on SEL issues to begin with

SPED teachers in general are trying to not stress out about the overall situation

Important to give not only our students grace, but ourselves as well. Some things may not work for our specific situations, but we need to both be okay with something not work AND ready to flex to something different

-This sounds like a pretty standard beginning of the school year.
-We're wondering how much of this can be streamlined to avoid redundancy and maximize instructional time.

# data[].attributes.body
-Starting with our in-person kids the same way we do in Sept. in terms of teaching routines. Using the SEL lessons/tools should help.
-Teaching students to interact with each other within and between the models will need to be intentional.
-Using Screenbeam to enhance communication.
-Remote groups will be bigger than the groups in person, how does that impact relationship building and instruction?

Keep a routine going each day
Creating choice boards or choose your adventure for Remote students while you dig deeper with in-person group

Students should be required to login to remote still when in class to interact with all peers.

Modeling through Zoom share and projected in class.

Have students use online instructional programs for part of class time (teachers discussing different blocks of the class period for this time).

Use of GoGuardian with the online programs will enable us to immediately help students struggling independently on a lesson.

Students have not been using online programs thus far despite the direction to do it and watching on GoGuardian

Expansion of fluency lessons (6-minute fluency)

Paras uncertain currently of when they will be able to provide instructional support

Two-day lesson cycle approach with stations...activities run concurrently with digital for remote students and paper/direct for in-person students

We would still like to have our kids here for the full M-Th week!

Time management is going to be critical for our kids to get through the length of the periods...build in breaks!

# data[].attributes.body
Are kids who are 100% remote in the a/b structure or expected to be in all of the meetings, just to clarify maybe?

How can we get pencils for pencil giveaway to students who are not prepared?

# data[].attributes.body
-There is so much good information, but we need time to digest in.
-Brainbreaks - use Kahoot so that all kids can participate.
-What materials can we use? Are we allowed to have paper assignments for in person students sometimes?
_ Can we use physical materials (personal whiteboards, math manipulatives, rulers, etc)
_What about movement? Can students rotate through activities?

Walking 6 feet apart outside for PE can we take masks off?

-Get to know each other activities.
-Classroom Procedures/Routines.
-Classroom Safety Expectations.
-Can we create a school doc or resource for safe team/building activities/ideas?
-Collaborate to identify needs of students that are dynamically changing with new expectations.
-Build daily routines from day 1.

Do we have an answer on the disposition of our current small groups yet, most specifically 1.) can these kids continue to come 4 days a week, and 2.) what happens with our 7th and 8th grade small group students in the week-ish between start dates?

How can we ensure information such as the reduction in use time for KN95s is immediately shared with staff?

Can time schedules be adjusted for life skills to bring students in earlier to keep the kiddos out of the general melee of students arriving, i.e., staggered start and end times?

Can we reiterate again with content area teachers about having some grace and helping resource students (nearly every parent conversation and/or iEP meeting involves pleas about SS and Science being too stressful, overwhelming, and downright difficult)?

Is there any additional space available for life skills in the building?

Will we ever have access to additional paras if we find ourselves in a critical need at the moment?  Can we have a pool of available paras each day to draw from?  (Need dynamic coverage of paras)

Need specific (written, please) guidance on how to handle passing times for multi-grade classrooms and multi-grade teachers

Can we please have a specific plan for students waiting in passing periods outside the portables (space, supervision to maintain distancing/prevent horseplay)?

Will para numbers be returned to pre-remote numbers?

Both life skills classes seem understaffed currently.  It is requiring closer supervision in order to maintain social distancing among students.  To maintain that distance it is often meaning teachers do not get duty-free breaks and/or lunches at times.

Can life skills get licenses for SuccessMaker?

Grouping students so remote, group a, group b work together.

Various Grouping / Team-building
Pool noodles; nerf projectiles

write letters to future self.
What is the importance of community?

Use breakout rooms to put A/B/Remote kids together to work when direct instruction is done.

Create class playlists
build in time for games that everyone can play!

Can we get staff masks that say "It goes over your nose too"

What are the steps for reminding students about masks.  I have been told my students: I remind you, admin reminds you, you are told to stay home. Is this correct?

For those that did not respond to hybrid/in person, what is the default?

Can we have stacks of paper schedules for students.  Lots wanted something they could put on the fridge.

Has the schedule overlap been addressed?  8th Grade House bumping into 6th grade 1st or 4th periods for example.

What are procedures/expectations if we want to take our in-person students outside for some movement breaks or activities?

If we are continuing staff sign in, can we make it digital? Like a Google Dog or Spreadsheet?
