1/2 Hours Matter

Trying to keep our students on task during remote learning can be a challenge. Even as adults, making the most of our time we have available can be challenging, especially when tiredness, work and life in general can sometimes feel overwhelming.

However, we owe it to those who have not been as lucky as us with the time we have been granted. We owe it to our students to remind them that though life was not meat to be easy, it was meant to be enjoyed.

Emphasising the beauty of life through our teaching, regardless of subject, can give a real ray of hope to others. As teachers, our students are relying on us at this time to demonstrate what good living is, despite the restrictions to our everyday lives in the current pandemic.

“Remember, Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies.” (Quote from Stephen King, Shawshank Redemption)

We at MyExtras hope that Remote Learning version 2.0 will work well for you and that you can make the most of those half hour lessons.
