3rd-5th Grade CONTINUED LEARNING PLANNING TEMPLATE

As you seek to develop your continuous learning plans for remote learning, we know that we cannot perfectly replicate classroom instruction. With that in mind, please consider these rules of thumb:

Try to use what you’ve already been using. Students will have the most success with materials they’re familiar with. If you can leverage your existing resources virtually—especially if you’re confident in their quality—you should.

Keep it clear and simple. Don’t overwhelm your students and families with too many resources. Make sure your plan works for all families. Be mindful of crafting a learning plan that works for families, think through issues like training

and access to technology. Families have never been asked to sustain at home learning in this way. (TNTP, 2020)

Note: Teachers working in a departmentalized setting should collaborate across content areas to ensure that the distribution of time per content area is appropriate and that expectations for the total amount of time on task a student spends each day are reasonable.

Individual Student Check-Ins:

In planning for continued student engagement and connection, teachers should be available to students daily in order to provide feedback and track student engagement. Teachers must ensure individual feedback with each student at least weekly.

Suggestions

• Develop a predictable schedule so each student knows which day to expect their individual check-in

• Maintain consistent office hours where any student, regardless of their “check-in” day can reach you for support

• Digital Check In Resources• Non-Digital Check In Resources

After planning, teachers should consider building a family-facing schedule that caregivers and students can use to organize their time while navigating through the various learning and enrichment activities. Linked here are a sample schedule and an editable template you can use to create student schedules.
