Webinar this Weds on In-Person Instruction During COVID

[Whitney Cohen]

Hi all,

At Life Lab, after a 6 month pause, we’re about to start teaching outdoors, in-person again — unless, of course, something changes, which we all know keeps happening! That’s why I’m really excited about the SGSO Network Virtual Gathering this Weds, 9/16. We’ll be diving into the question: What does instruction look like in the outdoors, with new COVID Restrictions in place? In this gathering, we'll hear from 6 trailblazers who have already begun instructing students in the outdoors in these new conditions. They’ll share vital lessons learned, such as: 

- Strategies for maintaining social distance while teaching

- Systems for managing and sanitizing teaching materials

- Strategies for doing cooking and eating activities outdoors with new COVID protocols

- Strategies for encouraging hand washing, proper use of masks, and the like while teaching in an Outdoor Classroom

- What do we do about the snow? Smoke? etc.

I wanted to share this in case you are also teaching in-person, or planning for the time when that will become an option again. You can learn more and register at: https://www.sgsonetwork.org/webinars/

All my best to all of you, particularly in these challenging times,

Whitney
