Your October 2020 Teacher's Guide
Dear teachers,
We’ve heard that for many of you, the most challenging part of your new school landscape is making personal connections with your students through a computer screen. But we’ve also heard something else: ideas. You’re using the challenge of distance teaching to experiment and innovate—and I’m blown away by the ingenious workarounds, new routines, and relationship-building activities you’ve come up with.
Turn to the back of this Digital Resource Guide for a few ideas to add to your distance-teaching toolkit. We hope they’ll allow you to use Choices to foster even more powerful relationships with your students.
And if you have an idea you’d like to share, send me an email or join our Facebook group! You’ll find instructions for that on the back page as well.
Warmly,
Jennie Yabroff, Executive Editor
