- Ensure there are increased options for supporting students and parents who choose to participate in home-based learning.
- Teachers may choose to use instructional tools such as: Google Meet, the conference option in Canvas, or streamed and/or recorded instructional videos.
- Consistent time should be scheduled during which students and parents can ask for help via direct communication and support.
