REMOTE LEARNING TIPS
Studying at home is not the easiest to do for elementary students. In order for the transition into remote learning to be successful it requires a stable routine that is monitored by a parent or caregiver. The transition will initially be challenging, and many times be frustrating, but with team effort (school, student, parent, and God) it can be done!
Below are some tips to support the students’ performances, but in hopes to also support our parents.
- Work with your home student to set up a routine – a reliable daily schedule that will reinforce this time as a continuation of learning, rather than a break or vacation. Students respond well to stability and structure.
- Bed time should be consistent and remain the same.
- Students in Grades 4-8 Wake up at the same time and be prepared to sign in to the homeroom by 8:00.
- Students in Grades TK-3 Wake up time will vary. Parents are required to sign in their child before the end of the day.
- Students work well in an area with no distractions. Help your student create a designated learning space, one that is quiet, organized, and away from distractions (no TV, no video games, etc.)
- Remind your child on a daily basis the benefits of staying organized, making sure they have supplies for lessons, assist when needed
- Create a visual for their daily schedule
- Students in Grades 4-8 take breaks according to the class daily schedule. (Recess and lunch will remain the same time)
- Engage your child to work with you to establish their academic success plan.
- Hold your student accountable for completing their assignments.
- Check Gradelink on a daily or weekly basis
- Have Patience and Pray!
