I gave all my students information to be connected on ClassDojo, as well as their parents. I'm hoping to connect with them throughout this time and give them help, talk with them, give them challenges of speaking, Reading, Writing, and listening. However, there's no guarantee that more than just a handful of students will actually connect! A lot of our students looked at it as a vacation. Some ran out like it was the last day of school. It was surreal!

I feel so out of touch with my students. I was on maternity leave. The day I was supposed to return to school was the same day our school closed its doors. My kids aren't checking Google Classroom and I'm worried about them. Now we are waiting on information from the state on how we are going to proceed with academics.
