 How is the pandemic affecting School


Our new normal is just that our normal. Mask wearing, hand washing, social distancing it is just a way of life. I am noticing with my grandsons that it is just something that they are use to now. They just accept that this is the way of life. Never have I had an issue with them wearing their masks out in public and in school. 
Our school district is doing something called hybrid school. So they are closed every Monday for cleaning and then the kids are split into two groups green and white one group goes to school two days a week the other group the other two and then on the days they are home they are doing what is called "remote" learning. What our school is doing is using paper packets and google classroom to supplement. This is the best we can do in this trying time but it is also very difficult on them. When kids are home they want to just be home and be kids they don't want to be in school at home so to get them to take it seriously can be an issue. 
My advice to you all is set a specific time for your remote learning. My boys go to bed like it is a regular school day they wake up early and have breakfast like normal and then we start school work. We take a break for lunch and then they return to finish what they may not of done. 
Is this the perfect situation, heck no but it allows them to at least get some structure in school and remain safe. 
Avon has been a blessing too because we have the personal care items for this pandemic, masks, hand sanitizer etc.   We also offer our business model for free currently to help people earn an income from home. It's the best of both worlds. Find out more information on my web site.

  The older boys are off to school now and it is difficult as an adult to send them to school. Even though we are doing a hybrid model it is still scary that they are out in the public after keeping them home and safe for all these months.  To have to remember to pack a snack, a water bottle and now a clean mask every day. I am finding my youngest who is in Kindergarten and has sensory issues tends to chew on his mask and by the time he gets home it is soaking wet. Now this is not going to be a good thing for his skin and face. I am thinking maybe I should send him with a disposable mask that way he won't like to chew on it.  Being a parent especially as a grandparent in these uncertain times is definitely not an easy thing. I remember when I was raising my kiddos how exciting going to school was and how I looked forward to it every year. Now it is a lot of remembering schedules and what days they go and if it is an even or odd day or an a,b,c,d,or e day.  What ...
