2. Trying to stay focused on the task that is right in front of you. 
3. If covid was to actually seem like it was going away or if it actually calmed down.

Sometimes it can be a little difficult to have a precise schedule and when internet connections effect your learning it can be costly. 
2. Managing school and sports. This year I had a hybrid schedule and it was hard to manage the days I had to come to school while also having to come for my sports, it was just stressful. 
3. If there's good reason to come to in-person like a purpose in way, but also if it's safe and I feel safe. ]]> 2021-03-18 15:20:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326041475 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326056368
1.At times virtual learning is very hard and can be very stressful and lots of kids lack motivation and are still trying to live through a pandemic and it’s not easy and it seems like some don’t understand that
2.The most difficult part is definitely trying to stay motivated and trying to keep a good mental health it sucks and sometimes it’s a lot to deal with than also trying to maintain our parents and teachers “expectations”
3.I wanna make sure i won’t bring nothing back i have elder family members at home with medical conditions even my parents have that me as well who if we get the virus we might not make it through and it sucks that i have to go risk that for a test
extra: i feel like we shouldn’t have to rush to try to get everyone back we are all still functioning through a pandemic...in where some kids aren’t ready to go back yet and some parents aren’t ready to send their kids back yet and i just feel like it’s being rushed to much ]]> 2021-03-18 15:23:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326056368 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326058270 1. For virtual learning, it can be challenging or easy, but it depends on your way of learning. 
2. What has been difficult for me is properly managing school and home things, staying motivated and focused. 
3. Whether the precautions will continue to be taken seriously and efficiently to make sure everyone on campus is healthy and safe.]]> 2021-03-18 15:23:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326058270 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326156206 1. for some students it can be diffcult but for some its an easier route. staying focus, and trying not to put a lot of stress on yourself. 
2. for me it would be 
3. if people would take covid-19 more seriously and do their part in keeping them safe and people around them as well, even though in-person learning is much easier for me im safer not going to school ]]> 2021-03-18 15:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326156206 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326295479 1. For me, doing virtual learning is very difficult because it is very easy for me to get distracted. It's also very hard to find motivation to do any work 
2. The major factor that's preventing me from attending in person is I'm scared to bring home anything to my parents, more specifically my mother. She has problems within her lungs and so she finds hit hard to breath from time to time ]]> 2021-03-18 16:06:04 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326295479 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326558078 1. For me, when I am at home it is easy to just log into class and sleep or even play video games. It is also hard to get up and do work when you're at home because there isn't always a teacher there to tell you to do your work. 
2. The most difficult part about school is that you really don't have the teachers help. When we weren't in a pandemic the teachers would walk over to us and just help, and now it is virtual so if your Wifi frezzes or lags you really can't understand what is going on. My mom plays a big role and sports do to also. B Right now if we go to workouts in the morning they highly encourage us to be in person. With my mom she wants us to go in person so we save electricity and water, plus food also. ]]> 2021-03-18 16:52:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326558078 stephaniefuentes https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326579387 1.i wish people knew that virtual learning is not easy, in a learning matter. what is easy is for kids to log in and just leave their computer on in the corner and then go leave to do something else. this is why its not easy >
2. what makes it so difficult is that most of the times the teachers dont even offer the help they say they will, they just log on tell us what to do and end the zooms, sometimes youll get lucky if they tell HOW to do things. plus i think most kids dont get the help they need because we are hand on learners, switching into virtual all of sudden was a big change that we had to adapt to. ... and then when the teachers are explaining this and doing zooms , they dont let us log off and they keep on rambling about off topic things and then they get distracted too but still wont dismiss us to do our work, all that zoom time wastes my work time and i can never catch up due to the rest of my classes being in the mix of all these problems, the work eventually piles up and some people dont have other time to do school work. 
3.i think what plays the biggest role is COVID , the mask mandate just passed and now we got people wearing no masks, which is more risky to catch it , even though the school wants us to still wear masks, you dont know where other people have been and gone, and for them to be coming back on campus is a scary feeling for us. theres been many covid cases at THIS school and for them to keep trying to put kids in danger is wild, people wont tolerate it. ]]> 2021-03-18 16:56:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326579387 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326602069 1. Virtual learning is easy if you do the work and are willing to speak up on zoom and ask questions.
2. I don't think school was difficult this year. I think the most difficult part was just not being as social or being as active in general.
3. For me, things that are playing a role are soccer, Covid procedures, my appearance and my family.]]> 2021-03-18 17:00:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326602069 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326604965 1. Virtual learning stinks
2. Ignoring the obvious fact that school stinks

Virtual learning can make cheating on work more easier and it feels more comfortable being at home but it ruins learning for students and does not feel like learning new things it's more just doing things because you have to. 
2. It has been very difficult to keep up with school and home life through out a pandemic because it feels there's problems being thrown at you at all times.
3. The consistent covid cases coming up every day especially after the mask mandate was removed plays a big role on deciding whether to go to school in-person ]]> 2021-03-18 17:03:57 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326618547 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326659685 1. As a student that has done both in person and strictly virtual, there is no way to get students to participate and turn in assignments if the way teachers teach or the way they structure their assignments does not change. Participation is a two way street but teachers are creating an environment in which students can feel comfortable participating in.
2. The most difficult part of school this year has been the work overload. Just because students are at home, it does not mean they are not struggling with the stress of the pandemic and pre-existing mental health issues. There are other reasons as to why students are not doing their work besides being lazy.
3. I personally believe that when I am not being forced to go to school by my parents and at my sisters house as it is less noisy as my own, that i preform better in my school subjects. It does take setting a routine for yourself but if I am constantly having to switch from going to school one day and not the next, it becomes tough. Going to school everyday is not helpful either as those hours at school being spent in boring rooms in which teachers are focusing on virtual students can be draining. School use to be a place where kids can connect with others but now it is just an added possibility of getting covid.]]> 2021-03-18 17:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326659685 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326684803 1. I wish people knew how much time virtual learning takes, personally for me it consist of me sitting in front of my computer all day in my room attending the zooms where there's not real communication happening between the students and teachers and then at the end of the day im stuck with all my work so im pretty much spending 24/7 in my room in front of my Chromebook just trying to survive this school year.
2. The most difficult part of this year has been communicating effectively with my teachers I never got to build the relationships that I would have in person and also I feel like im not really learning im just doing the assignments to get them done and not retaining the information passed what is needed to get a good grade, also finding motivation to actually do the work especially if you get behind. That also ties into the mental health impacts this has had I no longer have the same social skills that I did and nobodys really asked about my mental health throughout this entire pandemic which is something I wish the school recognized and worried about more I think they just see these kids with failing grades and faill to recognize that we dont want to fail either and there is reasons for our actions. 
3. The biggest role in deciding weather or not I come to school virtually or in person would probably be how others in my house feel about it and if I get the vaccine also the extra curriculars that im if they need me to be in person it would be a decided factor for me. Also how the school would function if opened I know there simply isnt enough space for all of us to go back and properly social distance, for example our cafeteria size, things like this create a sense of fear about going back I wish I could be 100% confident in knowing I'd be safe but im just not. ]]> 2021-03-18 17:16:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326684803 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326691314 1. To me I think virtual has been ok but at the same time it hasn’t because when it comes to something I don’t understand I’m scared to ask for help.
2. So it’s been very difficult for me because it’s not just me at home I have three other siblings to take of and to also make sure there going to school and some times they get bored and they will leave there zoom meeting and that’s where I have to come in and tell them that they need to go back and do there work and sometimes they won’t even listen to me and I just get really frustrated and also really stress and that’s when I start to slack on turning in my work because I rather help out my siblings so they can have there work turned in.]]> 2021-03-18 17:17:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1326691314 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1327410213 I wish people knew that virtual learning isn't easy for everyone and that its pretty draining but theres pros and cons for both ways of learning. ]]> 2021-03-18 19:54:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1327410213 dillonlopez https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1329589402 1. I wish people knew that it can be very hard for people who get distracted easily. But very easy if you really want to get work done. 
2. The most difficult part of this year for me, is not being able to see my friends and managing time. 3. What plays the biggest role is how some kids will behave with the new rules. I feel they won't be taken seriously. ]]> 2021-03-19 13:03:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1329589402 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1330680196 1.I wish people knew how hard it is , i hear so many things " its virtual how are you still failing " its not so easy and no one will never understand that unless they are going through the same thing
2.the most difficult part for me is to have to continue with school and have to continue to go to all your classes even if you are not mentally okay .
3.the biggest role honestly is mainly the more covid cases increase 
 ]]> 2021-03-19 17:01:50 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1330680196 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1330721387 1.) What I wish people knew about virtual learning is how time consuming it can be and how it just kind of messes up the actual learning experience since cheating has increased and putting effort has reduced. And the fact that there are so many distractions and not exactly being held accountable to an extent since we are home and it can be hard to reach students sometimes.
2.) The most difficult part of this year for me is maintaining contact with teachers especially when I have a question. Time management has been harder than usual and just being stuck in one place due to the pandemic and then having the lack of motivation hit me, I feel like I'm going crazy and it sucks because I'm not as productive as I used to be. So the extra pressure is there for me and sometimes I can't handle that well.
3.) The biggest factor that decides whether I come back to school or not is the risk of doing so and the amount of cases that seem to increase especially with the masks now being removed and my family.]]> 2021-03-19 17:11:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1330721387 https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1331979292 1. I wish people knew how exhausting it is to be a virtual learner. Even though it seems like we get to be in our houses all da, virtual learning is exhausting. You spend your entire day glued to the screen stuck in your room, and then you get even more work assigned to you and it just feels like a never ending cycle of being glued to your laptop. 
2.The most difficult part of school this year, is definitely the isolation and lack of structure. Even though school is a place to learn it is also a place of structure and socialization. Without it, I don’t get as much social interaction as I used to as there’s not as much of a need to wake up early and have a set regimen.
3. The biggest influence in deciding whether to not to be virtual is the amount of potential exposure. At school you are in the same location with a large amount of people for 8 potential hours and we don’t know where they have been or how safe they are and in addition to this current in person school is depressing. In in person school you are still glued to your computer just in a different setting, and in addition to this the people you really want to see are not there. ]]> 2021-03-20 04:28:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ericfalcon1/q3j1g89o1hl8vsiz/wish/1331979292
