Inputting P2 Progress Reports
Continuity of Instruction Preparedness
What we are learning from our international colleagues who are currently experiencing virtual learning in elementary settings is that they wished they had had the chance to better prepare their children with tech tools.
Therefore, should we make the move to virtual learning, the time to begin introducing different tech tools to support any work that would go home via Seesaw is NOW!
Hilary and Mary Kelly will be reaching out to you all with suggestions, resources and tools you need to start discussions with your teams this week.
We would advise playing with the tools yourself over the weekend, and then begin implementing with your classes from next week.
Any questions, first seek Mary Kelly and Hilary, and then also feel free to come talk to one of us.
