One example was that every student desk needs to be 6ft each direction from other desks. You'd need cafeteria-sized classrooms to do that. We're not even going to know until mid-July what the next school year is going to look like. Currently, the three options most local schools are prepping for are: 1. Normal school year 2. Two half day rotations to limit the number in the building 3. E-learning for the majority with a possibility of LEP students attending classes

They were starting to get all cracked and nasty looking, but they were really clean. Get you a bottle of lotion. loving a godsend for those who wash hands often. Yes you can use it for masturbation to if you want but mainly its for caring for the dried skin from handwashing.

Can't say I really see the point of #2--the children would still wind up spending half their time at home, so it wouldn't solve the problem of parents needing somewhere to dump their kids while they work. And I'm not sure it would really do that much to limit the spread.

E-learning blows for my classes. I mean, I think I've done a decent job with the material I've come up with and have been used as an example by admins in Zoom meetings with peers, but none of it really replaces hands-on experience with the machinery. Overall, this E-learning experience has been pretty bad at our school. Depending on the class (school-wide, not just my classes), 50-75% haven't so much as checked in to most of our classes or turned anything in. If we have to do this part or all of next school year, the schools, DOE, someone is going to have to somehow talk parents and students into believing that this is actual, real school that counts on your actual, real transcript and not a 10-week spring break like they've treated it this year. But, yeah, it's going to be complete poo poo-show.

One example was that every student desk needs to be 6ft each direction from other desks. You'd need cafeteria-sized classrooms to do that. Yeah, dude, it's going to be hosed. I teach little kids and I plan to make "distance hats" that they wear in school where they'll use a yardstick on each direction of their head and make some kind of ridiculous loving cowboy hat with a 12 foot diameter brim that they wear in school. Or one of them ancient Song dynasty hats. Draw your favorite pokemon on it or whatever. Have a little fun whoohoo. Option 2 is stupid because an infected kid is just going to give the virus to me, and then I'll give it to the other kids the next day who probably won't get sick but just pass it to their families. it doesn't even make sense. and if any kid gets sick I'm just going to blame myself, and I'm sure that downward spiral is going to be a loving wonderful mix of gin and guilt at best. The ICU and a ventilator at worst. I coach high school sports too. One of them is wrestling. They're probably just going to cancel that outright. As for option 3, I hear that they are making some really quick edits in my state to the laws so that schools wont get buttfucked by lawsuits that nobody could really have done anything about given the situation. And then when this is done they probably won't edit them back so that will be cool. Man, it's going to break my heart every time I have to tell two little girls to not braid each other's hair, to tell two kids to not share a good part of a book because everyone around you is potentially a demon that can infect you. Right now our admin doesn't know what to do, teachers don't know what to do, parents don't know what to do. I just make sure to be available for my kids and I make little videos for them that may or may not have anything to do with school. Here are my pet fish! I made an omelette for breakfast this morning! Here's how I did it, try it with your mom! The birds are out, check out this cardinal! Pretending that everything is OK for them is spiritually exhausting though. I run lessons in small groups every day. I read part of a book to the whole group twice a week. I upload episodes of Avatar: The Last Airbender for them to watch every other day because I think it has a good message that they can use in this time. I can't quite buy it but I'm a jaded miserable gently caress. Maybe they can use it. With the weird rear end restrictions that would have to be in place and the enforcement of social distancing with little kids, which is not AT ALL good for their development, it's better to just stay at home rather than develop a fear and paranoia of everyone around them. I don't have anything good to say about it all, and I'm sorry about that. WILDTURKEY101 fucked around with this message at 06:01 on May 21, 2020 |

WILDTURKEY101 posted:wash your hands wash your hands wash your hands I'm starting to think that my fabulous immune system that I regularly brag about because I very rarely get ill (I've maybe had a cold or two and a bout of norovirus in....a decade or more), is in fact not so special and it is more the fact I always keep my hands clean and washed while an apparently a large percentage of the population are happy to wipe their fingers over any public surface they come into contact with before sticking them in their face holes. Makes me gag when I see how people treat personal hygiene at the office.

I can't wait to see how this gets spun. "What are numbers, really?" In other news, a coworker of the mailman for my wife's office tested positive and she's had a cough for a while (no other symptoms), so she's out getting a roni test right now.
