So it begins - Will we shift to online learning this month?

We were notified last night not to report to school today and wait for an update later today. Lots of schools in the area have cancelled for multiple weeks so I am anticipating the same for our district.
This last week teachers have been inquiring and sharing different ideas for online learning once DESE and our district confirms that will be the direction.

I created a few handouts after being inspired by my colleague @csheil for teachers week.  Hoping this would help reinforce many of the tools they are already using. Timing for something like this is never perfect but I am please teacher have been using Google Classroom for several years along with many online tools.  Now we will begin the process of thinking about the best way to make learning available to students while not over stressing them or teachers.

Here to a few handouts I shared this week http://bit.ly/distancelearningatnashoba along with some steps for using Google Meets http://bit.ly/nashobagooglemeets.  We were scheduled to have a department meeting today so we are going to try out a virtual meeting.  I will post a collection  of videos (google https://youtu.be/gslpx7Q8mhc) along with a collection of wakelets around  distance and remote learning!

Stay tuned for more.
