You got this.
Showing up for your child in your perfectly imperfect way is enough. It’s ok to not know all the stuff about all the things. Academics, health, economy, family life have many amplified unknowns right now. You have been tossed into uncertainty. It’s ok to not have a clear sequence of action steps based on past experience.
What if… this is a time of opportunity?
Yes, uncertainty. Yes, unknown. Yes, uncharted. Yes, challenges.
What if we add... Yes to curiosity. Yes to wonder. Yes to flexibility. Yes to choosing the best in this moment. Yes to analyzing our standard routines and tailoring them to fit us better. Yes to noticing what good could result from this time. Yes to upleveling our family. Yes to claiming our role as primary educator. Yes to learning a whole bunch as we go along.
I’m with you.
All in shelter in place
Is your child ditching schoolwork to spend more time with texting or social media? I realize even some elementary school students turn off the zoom class video and private chat with their friends rather than participate in the lesson.
We are social creatures. We crave connection. How can we get satiated?

Perhaps you’re still navigating the stuck-at-home schooling or now looking to enhance summer learning, or perhaps your interest has been piqued for weaving curiosity and active learning into your family’s way of being.
The resources and links are gold during your journey of Remote Learning and beyond. (It’s a continual work in progress but we’ve got some gems here.)
