You celebrate with them whatever brings them joy, whether or not it's school-related, and you empathize with whatever is bringing them down, always with words and gestures of encouragement. I can tell students and families feel really safe and have a space of belonging in your class, which is probably any teacher's most important accomplishment. As a parent, I'd be elated to have a child in your class, any day. Don't be too hard on yourself during these times-- you are ROCKING online teaching and making a huge difference.
