Raising the Question

 For this Raising the Question assignment, I looked at Emily Franzke's brainstorming post. I connected to it because we had done the same warm up activity for our brainstorm post and we both have how might we questions centered around difficulties teaching in covid times. I also found it interesting that while we both did opposite and analogy thinking, she preferred analogy over opposite, while I found opposite to be easier. I am mainly using email, and send out newsletters every Friday. I don't typically get any responses from parents about the newsletter though, so I'm unsure if they are being read or not. We also just had our first round of conferences virtually. When thinking about communicating with parents, the biggest challenge is always finding the time and getting response. 

My questions to Emily are:

Are your students currently in person, remote or a mixture of both?

What types of communication are you using right now?

Are you having conferences this year? If so, are the virtual or in person?

What grade(s) do you teach?

What information are you wishing to communicate?

Out of the resources you discovered, have you tried any? Were they successful?

Thank you for taking the time to respond!
