01:04:11    Jennifer A: We are still trying to decide between VAVA and WJCC’s family choice. (We’re deciding today, currently enrolled in both). Leaning towards WJCC.

01:05:29    Rowan Levick :    I’m a student in Dr. Colley’s class

01:07:23    Beth K:     I’m going to be tutoring Matthew Whaley 5th graders three mornings a week.

01:08:20    Mary Ann:   I believe it will be very important to try and keep the students wanting to stay on task and learn. I think a good way to keep students engaged in work will be to utilize educational software online, including educational games.

01:08:51    Stacia Guillen:   I am looking for tutors for a 1st grade pod, we were going to work with some graduate students from WM but that fell through, do you have any recommendations for resources?

01:10:32    Katie Layton:     Hello! I am a student in Dr. Colley’s class.

01:11:02    Gwen Sargent:     I’m also a student in Dr. Colley’s class!

01:11:14    Jennifer A: We made a “Bell Schedule” in the Spring and it helped us a lot with time management.

01:13:02    Mary Ann:   Will aids be able to help students 1 on 1 or in a learning group?group

01:14:12    Rachael Nelson, WRL Teen Librarian: Thank you all for your questions/comments! I am noting them and will bring them to the floor shortly to have your questions answered.

01:15:02    Kerry Henderson:  Any ideas how to accomplish this if children are doing this in the evening after coming home from child care?

01:16:13    Beth K:     Question: I’m tutoring a learning pod. If some students are on the “Year-long learning” path, will their school assignments look very different from the students on the “Path 1 remote learning”?

01:16:56    Rachael Nelson, WRL Teen Librarian: Beth K – with WJCC schools?

01:17:15    Beth K:     Yes, Matthew Whaley Elemen.

01:17:56    Jena McDaniel-Cumming:  I’ve heard from a family choice teacher that the schedules are the same but not sure about the assignments

01:22:46    Kristen M:  I am concerned that one of my second-graders has potentially an attention issue or some other kind of behavioral issue, based on some teacher feedback and from seeing myself how he handled assignments during learning at home this past spring. Do you have any recommendations for how something like that could be monitored/handled/addressed at home? I am anticipating a big struggle to get him to do any of his independent work. (WJCC student)

01:22:50    Lynn Shields:     Great presentation and info. Thank you!

01:22:59    Jena McDaniel-Cumming:  This has been great! Lots of good ideas

01:23:01    Kristin Beilstein:      Thank you so very much Dr. Colley!! much appreciated

01:23:19    Beth K:     Question: In regards to laptop distribution, what will the elementary students be doing the first week of school since they will not receive laptops until the second week of school?

01:23:21    Alison Foley:     Thank you Dr. Cooley – Very helpful & thoughhtful

01:24:12    Mary Ann:   Would the library be able to lend out a few copies of computer games made by the learning company? that way if say the kids cant go outside on their breaks they can just pop in the disk after installing it for the first time. I had utilized some of these games when I was in school.

01:25:42    Julie Tucker:     The School of Education does have a job board for people looking to hire our students as teachers: https://education.wm.edu/currentstudents/jobboard/

01:25:49    Katherine:  I am a certified teacher in WJCCPS and would be happy to connect with this parent looking for a tutor for her 1st Grader.

01:25:53    Julie Tucker:     ^tutors, not teachers :)

01:26:11    Kristin Beilstein:      there have been lots of people wanting to help on the WJCC facebook page like tutoring

01:26:28    Katherine:  I can be reached at Katherine.coggin@wjccschools.org

01:27:58    Stacia Guillen:   thank you everyone! Its a work from home situation and needing supplemental tutoring while I try and work;-)

01:28:56    Mary O’Brien:     How is attendance being taken? If a child cannot be on during the day.

01:29:27    Suzanne Hagedorn: York County is using Canvas as its Learning Management System, is WJCC using Canvas or something else (like Google Classroom)

01:31:08    Kate: This is great info and great to hear =)

01:34:08    Jena McDaniel-Cumming:  That makes me so happy! Thank you for clarifying! I was so sad that my kids wouldn’t have teachers from JBB

01:34:30    Rachael Nelson, WRL Teen Librarian: A recording of this presentation will be available shortly at www.wrl.org/learnhome. Allow at least a week.

01:34:33    Erin Shields:     That is great to hear. We would hate to miss out on the Matthew Whaley connection!

01:34:38    Amy Colley: As we’re all learning new vocabulary this year, for anyone wondering, synchronous learning is “live” at a specific time, like this summit; asynchronous learning is often a recording, self paced, not at a specific time.

01:37:15    Amy Colley: To this question, Mary Stowe at TTAC has the following suggestions on the hub (https://education.wm.edu/academics/ci/at-home-learning/special-education/index.php)

01:37:29    Amy Colley: Establish structure and routine

This allows for a stable environment within which the unexpected may be handled.

Create a predictable schedule or structure to the day

Chunk information provided to learn or study, as well as chunk the work toward creating a product

Use instructional methods to support learning

Use explicit, step-by-step language when providing directions for task completion

Use visual supports and models to assure understanding of the task to be completed

Provide sufficient wait time for processing needs of the student

Provide behavioral supports for learning

Provide reassurance and feelings of security around the circumstances of this unique time to reduce stress and anxiety

Co-construct a positive reward system to engage students in learning

Acknowledge your childΓÇÖs successes as learning may be overwhelming for them and provide

constructive feedback to move them forward in their learning experiences

01:37:59    Rachael Nelson, WRL Teen Librarian: To clarify, this recording will be available at wrl.org/learnhome once we are able to process and publish it. Thank you for your patience

01:38:01    Rachael Nelson, WRL Teen Librarian: !

01:38:18    Erin Shields:     Any tips for extremely shy young children who are very anxious about being on camera in a whole class live setting?

01:38:29    Alison Foley:     Must go – But thank you to all Hosts for this valuable info!

01:39:31    Amy Colley: Practice, practice, practice, Erin! Try a family online chat or one with friends (via Zoom). Talk with the teacher about the concern. Is it ok to start small, with a photo?

01:40:38    Erin Shields:     Thank you!

01:41:34    Kristin Beilstein:      thank you for all you information Robin, very much appreciated!!

01:43:17    Jennifer A: I’m very worried that my daughter (1st grade) will become bored with school. How will differentiated learning work at WJCC (can she work ahead? Gifted program? Other options?)?

01:44:12    Jennifer A: For the year long virtual learning at WJCC, do we have an idea of classroom size?

01:46:42    Amanda Wheeler:   I may have missed it, but will this recording be posted? if so, where?

01:47:08    Rachael Nelson, WRL Teen Librarian: This will be posted at wrl.org/learnhome once the recordning is processed!

01:47:29    Amy Colley: Jennifer A: There are loads of resources for enriching student learning. Yes, WJCC has a robust gifted program, and I’ll defer to them for that process; however, there are some great community resources. The School of Education has the Center for Gifted Education that offers online resources for students and families. Finally, I always recommend reading (together) books that might challenge and be a bit higher in level with our children and having discussions together about them.

01:48:14    Jena McDaniel-Cumming:  Remind is sooo easy and convenient

01:48:14    Rachael Nelson, WRL Teen Librarian: I am a BIG FAN of Remind!

01:48:24    Amanda Wheeler:   Thank you so much @rachel!

01:49:07    Suzanne Hagedorn: W&M’s Center for Gifted education offers excellent classes for enrichmentΓÇöwill they be offering any virtual classes on Saturdays this fall, or is that program on hiatus this semester?

01:49:25    Jennifer A: Thanks @amy, we are reading lots everyday. Heading to WRL after this is over actually.

01:49:26    Kristin Beilstein:      my daughter goes to Louise Hornsby and she doesn’t know her teachers or her schedule yet. where do I get that info?

01:51:12    Amy Colley: Suzanne Hagedorn you can email sep@wm.edu to find out the status of Saturday classes.

01:51:21    Kristin Beilstein:      thank you appriciate it

01:51:49    MaraistS:   Thank you Robin

01:51:56    Valerie:    Will this presentation be the same for the summit this afternoon or will the content be more specific to middle and high school students?

01:54:44    Amy Colley: Valerie, for me, very similar, and I will focus a bit on the abilities and also needs of adolescent learners to have choice and to set their own goals.

01:54:52    Steven:     In reference to Laptop distribution. Are we required to be issued a Laptop. My family has laptops that can be used for instruction.

01:57:02    Andrea Fegley:    Will students be able to access WRL online resources (ebooks, audiobooks, etc) on their WJCC devices?

01:58:00    Rachael Nelson, WRL Teen Librarian: To clarify, Steven – can you let them know how to get in touch with you? For those who don’t know you? : )

01:59:00    MaraistS:   thanks Barry! Good info

01:59:07    Rachael Nelson, WRL Teen Librarian: To recap – if you can’t find your library card, etc. you can use the student’s 10 digit ID number in this format:

01:59:12    David Lunt: The Scholastic databases ask for a user name and password.

01:59:25    maryi:      One quick question? An already identified IEP student with services from previous school years, What format is available for them to continue to achieve success?

01:59:45    David Lunt: Bookflix, ScienceFlix, and TrueFlix

01:59:49    Rachael Nelson, WRL Teen Librarian: Library of things!

02:00:12    clive:      Help for tech challenged grandparents?

02:00:57    Barry Trott:      David, that should not be happening, can you please contact me directly about this, btrott@wrl.org.

02:01:07    Yaitzel Barrientos:     Great!

02:01:46    Amy Colley: @clive — great question! This may a good topic for a follow up session.

02:02:05    Veronica Erlich:  Such great resources! Thank you so much! We love the library!!

02:02:28    Kristin Beilstein:      great info Ben thank you!, didn’t all that existed.

02:04:38    Amanda Cass:      I know it was mentioned before quickly but wasn’t sure if it will be addressed later, about elementary students waiting the second week of school to pick up tablets. Will this be address through our teachers? Or will it be clarified later by the school?

02:04:52    Nkki Santiago:    In regards to student shy about being on camera. Sometimes turning of their self-view helps. Seeing themselves on camera can sometimes awkward and reminds them they are on camera.

02:05:14    Mary Ann:   I am going to leave now, thank you for all the information.

02:05:45    Jennifer V: Thanks for the great information!

02:05:58    Erin Shields:     Thank you all for the wonderful advice.
