How is school going? We are in full swing with distance learning, remote learning, online learning, homeschool learning . . . however you’d like to refer to our learning environment, we are doing it!!
It is exciting to see and hear my student’s enthusiasm. They certainly express the joys of learning at home (sleeping in, getting work done in their time, successfully learning, options) and the other activities that happen as we are all hunkered down at home. It certainly has been a great learning experience for all of us.
One of the areas we are certainly experts at is Google! Yes, Google Classroom has been our “go to” learning platform. This has been a blessing to have all our resources shared in one place, questions, answers, discussions, assignments . . . this has been a huge part of our distance learning classroom.
Our school board was using Google Classroom with learning at home with Covid and it is a great set up for the kids.
We were doing google classroom and zoom meetings for a while
It’s nice to hear that students are enjoying and doing well with distance learning. I wish I could say the same for my 15-year old. Since the closure of his school, this was by far the worst year he had grade-wise. He would much rather physically be in class and does much better that way. It will be interesting to see if they reopen school in the fall. His school has not yet decided.
This learning was quite a shift for everyone. I hope your son’s year goes better this year. Such a tender age to experience this crisis.
We are out of school until Aug 27 but the kids were out in February for spring break so I am going to checkout Google classroom, I think this is the way we are heading.. thank you for the info
Yes, Google Classroom is versatile and so easy to use for students and parents. Have a great upcoming year!
Such a new world with all the distant learning and virtual field trips.
