I have created a printable & downloadable lesson planner for parents & teachers to share with parents. This will help learners maintain some kind of routine in the COVID-19 madness! I would make this as repetitive and structured as possible; for example begin each day with a mindfulness activity, then do some literacy & numeracy and finish the day with a creative task. Having a plan of lesson expectations printed & visible to children should also help with managing challenging behaviours! Don’t forget regular breaks are important so you can schedule those in too! Feel free to share!
