You don’t have to do it alone. The internet is full of resources for parents helping to ensure our chiildren have the structure and support to succeed in this new distance learning environment.

One of the areas that families might be struggling with is a schedule. Jessica McHale is a photographer and mom of three. Her family has found that a schedule is comforting during this time. She thought others might benefit from it too. So she made the schedule available for families to use and provided a blank copy to tweak if needed.
Making a Schedule
Along with a schedule, having a roadmap to travel through this time will help. Edmodo, along with Learning Heros, has put together 5 Tips for traveling this new road of learning at home.
