School is officially back in session for most Idaho kids, but it sure looks different today than it did just a few weeks ago.
In fact, while our host Gemma Gaudette held this interview from her home office, her kids were hard at work doing live learning sessions online and reading assignments in the living room. Sound familiar at your house too?
Kevin Richert with Idaho Education News has been following this brave new world of education we’re living in, and joins Idaho Matters live to talk more.
As COVID-19 cases spread through the U.S. and Idaho, we’re committed to keeping you updated and informed. You can get updated info on cases, closures and how to stay healthy at any time on our Coronavirus news blog.
Idaho Matters is working on a story about how families are dealing with school closures during the coronavirus outbreak. Parents: What do your days look like now? Are you creating structure, or are you letting your kids have an extended spring break? Kids: What do you like about being at home, and what do you miss about school and being with your friends? Using your smartphone, please send us a voice memo with your family. Tell us about your daily routine, or about what your’e doing to stay distracted or learning. Send the voice memo to idahomatters@boisestate.edu. We might use your message in an upcoming show.
