Home Learning: Sitting, sitting, and more sitting
Today we had a Zoom meeting at 8:30 am. It is now 10:45 am and I am still sitting in this chair.
My back hurts.
My head hurts.
And my eyes will start to hurt very soon.
Remember that your students are feeling these same pains. We want our students to learn, and to not "waste" this time off from formal in-class learning. But at what cost?
Keep lessons short. Give students chances to explore outside of the confines of a chair and computer. Send them on adventures around their house, backyards, safe places in their neighborhood.
My back hurts and your students' do, too. Save our backs. Be creative and get your students up and moving.
