Hi there! I hope you're doing well!
So, how has this "homeschooling" thing been treating you? As someone who homeschooled my children for six years, let me say, this situation that we are finding ourselves in is NOT homeschooling. At all. I heard it called "Crisis Schooling" the other day, and I think that term is FAR more fitting and appropriate. This is a LOT more intense than normal homeschooling because you didn't even get to choose this path (or the curriculum that you're teaching!)!
It's likely that 99% of you didn't choose to become an interim teacher right now, but you are doing an EXCELLENT job, and I applaud you all SO much! 👏👏👏 Parents have stepped up in a BIG way, and even though it's not an easy task, you've all been making me SO proud of your valiant efforts!
Since all of this is new territory for many of you, I thought it might be helpful to share some of our favorite online educational resources with you. These resources offer educational games, lessons, printables, and tutoring to help you get through all of this. Best of all, they're designed in a way that makes learning FUN for kids (and less of a struggle for the parents!).
