The return of school this year promises that our kids will be home at unexpected times for undefined periods. What do we do with this time? What if online learning doesn't work for my kid/my family? I give you suggestions from my experience as a teacher and as a home schooling mom to help you through. We have the cool bonus of being a vegan family, too, so I tell you how we weave respect for animals and the natural world into our days.
As promised, here are resources I talked about in the episode:
