NO SCHOOL: Thanksgiving Recess
Grade 8 ELA teacher
Edmund J. O’Neal Middle School of Excellence
“The first week in Google Classroom had its challenges for both students and the teachers. We all have a variety of technological knowledge, comfort and experience levels. This has required us all to try new things.
“For teachers, we are trying multiple ways of engaging all of our students and helping them to get used to these new learning platforms.
“For students, it has been learning about how to read all directions and where to access the attachments and information they need.
“I have been very impressed by many of my students’ drive and persistence. They have gone beyond my expectations and have been fearless when it comes to trying new things and advocating for their needs.”
