Any ideas for teaching ESL students (especially those with very limited English and formal schooling skills, computer skills) virtually bc of the corona virus?

Can you clarify your question?

I would start teaching them basic procedures for an online classroom now so that they know what to expect and how to access assignments. If we end up going to virtual learning, I am still planning on teaching the lesson as I normally would and recording it so that I can still use visuals and examples.
If possible, I will try to use something like Google Hangouts to help students with assignments during the school day. So that's something I would show them how to use.
I am worried about my students' chances of success in an online format.

I’d out the videos on to YouTube they can turn on closed captioning and have sub titles in their native language.

there are lots of online resources pinned to the teacher bowl and grade level bowls. I like to use BrainPop, Newsela, PBS, History Channel, Nat Geo, NoRedInk to name a few (For secondary)

TLDR: Getting over your ex of 2.5 years ghosting you after they said they wanted to reconnect.

I was dating someone for about 2.5 years and then we broke up because of COVID and the long distance was making it too difficult to continue. The break up must’ve been like a 4-5 minute FaceTime because I was very distraught. After we broke up, she started seeing someone else but I was heartbroken and it’s taken me over a year to really get over everything and process those feelings. (Cont.)
