Q4: I’m staying connected with FaceTime, Zoom, Google Meet, email, texts, and social media. My kids and I have also been doing a lot of baking and then dropping off (keeping a safe distance). This is a pie we made for my parents. #EP401Chat

Q5: My 7yr daughter has a daily Google Meet w/ her class, and they (usually) all have to start on mute. The ONE time she did not, I was changing my 2yr olds dirty diaper and graphically describing it to my husband. They all heard. #quarantinefail #EP401chat #sorryforbeinggross

[Mrs. Sage @SageMrs]

Q3: My advice to educators is to keep remote learning clear, and have realistic expectations. I also think it is important to add in optional extension activities for those who have the time/desire for more work. #EP401chat

[Mrs. Sage @SageMrs]

Q2: I’m proud of all the ways I’m incorporating a variety of digital tools for students to learn and interact. I’m also proud of the STUDENTS for their ability to adapt and try new things as well! #ep401chat #trojanpride

@iovinelli1 @epcusd401 Congrats!

The second Math at Home that I created had an increase of participants, and an increase in the amount of activities they each completed! I’m so proud of their hard work! We celebrated by eating lunch in the classroom, listening to music, and getting a donut! #domoremathathome 🍩
