Kindergarten Online Learning

My Thoughts

There are less than two months to the end of the school year and for the next few weeks I will be sharing my experience of online learning with my kindergarten class.  Navigating the online learning environment has been somewhat of an adventure.  I must confess that I miss the person to person interaction in the physical classroom space. Nevertheless, the students and I have gotten into an online routine that seems to be working.

We have weekly Zoom classes where some student interaction is facilitated through games, stories and other creative expressions.  Students get the chance to share their home learning and participate in weekly Show and Tell. Being in the comfort of their home with parents around, gives students that extra exuberance to share with friends.  Mark you, there are a few of them that still need that prompting to share openly.

It has been fascinating to watch their growth and share in their learning in the online space.  The school year will be completed in this online environment and as much as I would love to be able to see them in the classroom, we will make the most of what technology affords us.
