If you are experienced at WFH, check on your friends who are experiencing this for the first time. They might not be ok. Remind them to take breaks, encourage them to get fresh air, etc.

Thank you for this. I wfh in a previous job but I tend to be very heads-down and not take any breaks. I appreciate the prodding. Maybe tomorrow I’ll institute balcony breaks.

I would never do that. I tend to give adults the benefit of the doubt that they can figure out easy life situations on their own. But I know people who can’t even eat in a restaurant by themselves, so recognize folks are different. Still, best for people to figure this stuff out on their own. Builds character.

My school has seen combinations of f2f, hybrid, and remote teaching/learning throughout the first half of the school year. After the MLK holiday, our district is returning to traditional f2f teaching 100%. I have 4 band classes (1 beginning, 2 intermediate, & 1 advanced), and as far as content pacing is concerned, we’re 1 9-week grading period behind. Is it a far fetched goal to get my students where they need to be by the end of the school year? How would you handle a situation like this?
