As a mom who home-schooled kiddos all the way from kindergarten to high school graduation I can certainly understand how the parents are feeling. It is nice that the your district has been so proactive. Thanks for visiting with me, Tracy and taking time to leave a comment.

They started setting kids up with emails and websites and apps for their phones so the teachers could post lessons online and communicate with each student. If they don't have access to internet or computers and are too young to have phones with apps, they created paper packages with their assignments and gave each parent their phone numbers so they could call and help anytime. Parents are helping their children with their assignments. Our school systems really came through to continue the kids lessons in a very creative way. Parents are getting a taste of home schooling and they are learning just how hard being a teacher is too. We k know our schools are going to be out the rest of April. We are not sure about May yet.

I loved musicals as a kid and used 'snow days' to expose my kiddos to Oklahoma, Seven Brides For Seven Brothers, The Sounds of Music... our favorite is still My Fair Lady. I think we're are all starting to feel a bit stir crazy. Thanks for stopping by and spending a little time with me today.

I'm planning to watch some broadway productions with my student to give us a break.Michele Morinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814119096056835884noreply@blogger.com
