Thanks for your community, Suhana. I hope you and your students have a renewed appreciation for each other as you all try to adapt to these new and trying conditions.

I’m late to reading this. It seems these days I’m late to everything. Late to getting up. Late to starting the work (what exactly is that?). Late to online meetings, sometimes forgetting them together. Late to learning this odd way of teaching.

I was not late for your Sunday webinar. It recentred me. It’s what I needed. A week later I’d forgotten the wisdom shared.
Thank you for your words. Thank you for reminding me of the big picture. Thank you Desmos.
What a community!

Thank you! I left school on 3/12 after sharing an Open Up Resources Mastery Challenge with colleagues I found via the Facebook community. In home learning started 3/17 and has now been extended to May 15 in NC. In a virtual meeting today we were challenged to have in place instruction for the “next phase” after spring break. I am so grateful that I was able to propose Desmos activities. Been pushing student use of Desmos since 1st available; hoping colleagues will go along. I know my students will enjoy them and learn much. I homeschooled my sons when they were young and so wish district leaders understood better the fluidity of self-paced learning and back off teachers with stringent standards requirements. Desmos provides students with fun, less stressful learning, and a balance. Thank you again for your ongoing inspiration. We WILL get through this TOGETHER. Be safe. Joanne
