Loving our Virtual Learning Plan!! Hoping our keiki and families love it just as much! Using @Seesaw and @GoogleForEdu is making it so much more fun and manageable. #virtuallearning #distancelearning #kindergarten #teachinginapandemic

The best thing to happen so far this year was finding out that our kindergarteners will be able to use @Seesaw for distance learning. #distancelearning #kindergarten 😁

It appears as though decision-makers and media influencers still think emergency remote teaching and quality online instruction are the same...here are some visuals to assist these individuals in reconsidering their views - please use and share! #edtech #highered #remotelearning

This makes a lot of sense to me- especially as a kindergarten teacher. I’m having a hard time imagining a scenario where I can effectively teach five year olds while maintaining 3-6 feet of social distance.
Distance learning in the Spring was emergency learning—no one knew what to do or how to do it, we just did it. If states announced mandatory distance learning for the Fall, we would be 10x more prepared, we’d work to get everyone tech access, & we’d unquestionably be more safe.

#WeReopenSchoolsWhen those who care about kids, and know the names of the students are given a voice in the process.

I keep coming back to this thought- that while this is a terrible time for teachers and schools in so many ways, maybe it’s also an opportunity to really take a look at eduction as we know it and change it for the better
The time for school reform has past; we have entered a season of transformation. We can’t miss this opportunity. We must not be timid as we redeem ourselves and allow others to redeem themselves! #DoSomething

All of a sudden, everybody is talking about how much we need our public schools; before, all they talked about was how bad they were! How bad are they if you’re demanding they reopened in the midst of a pandemic that’s worse now than in March when it ran us home?

I saw a teacher friend of mine post "I wonder how social distancing will work when we run school shooter drills in the classroom this Fall." Everything. About. This. Sentence. Is. Wrong. Ask yourself how we got here?

This description pretty accurately sums it up...
Real talk: planning for reopening school this fall is like playing a game of 3-D chess while standing on one leg in the middle of a hurricane. Please shower students, families, teachers, principals, support staff, and school boards with extra love right now.

Four years of Betsy DeVos is more than enough. We need a Secretary of Education who is actually a public school educator.

Wrapped up my first year in Kona with a beach trip with some of my keiki and a couple fun video meetings. It’s been a strange few months but I’ve loved every minute living and teaching in Hawai’i 🤙🏼
