Teaching and Parenting During COVID-19


International Panel Discussion


Today I was happy to connect with other educators from around the world to discuss Teaching and Parenting During COVID-19. Here is a link to some of the different remote learning resources that I referenced throughout the discussion. 

There were a lot of great things discussed throughout the session. It is important to remember to be intentional about what we are teaching, and we need to select technology that is appropriate for our lessons. We want students to activity participate throughout lessons. As educators, we need to differentiate our approach in how we instruct and communicate with families during remote learning. It can be challenging to find the right balance, but we need to embrace the time that we have with our own children right now. We need keep the lines of communication open between families and teachers. Our Personal Learning Network (PLN) is key right now. We are stronger together. We feel like there will be a lot of positive things that emerge from this unprecedented experience.
