3rd Grade is a nightmare in our district where the apparent idea was to settle for the worst possible online experience.
It's a google slides deck that the kids have to edit. They've been assigning the same work accidentally day after day. We've contacted the principal countless times, and although she's sympathetic, the quality has not improved as it's a curriculum from the district.
We just stopped logging in completely and are doing a home school curriculum.
If the school reaches out, I'll deal with it then, but so far there's no indication that they've ever reviewed an assignment to begin with.
- liveoneggs 6y agowow my 2nd grader had to do the edit-google-slides thing today and I wrote the teacher a nasty note about how stupid it was! They couldn't come up with any other way to give a multiple choice sheet? I was convinced it was some kind of local terrible decision but now I'm concerned. Follow this up with day-after-day of technical nonsense problems, kids interrupting the class all day, lack of breaks/time-awareness, and non-stop testing and I'm ready to stop dialing in.
- elpatoisthebest 6y agoOur original plan was just to use homeschooling material to supplement things he probably wasn't learning well enough like math and some language stuff. He told me he wished he had workbooks to use, but now after seeing the disorganization and low effort from the teacher/district (I'm not sure exactly where to assign the blame), we're pretty glad we got stuff for every subject.
- giantg2 6y agoMost states require you sign an affidavit stating you are homeschooling. Might be good to look at that before they send the police or create a legal issue for you.
