    It is true that teacher learning in lesson study at its best mirrors the kind of learning they are trying to engineer in pupils through oracy. Both teachers and pupils use interthinking through exploratory talk optimised by ground rules

    This is spot on. "Integrate ongoing practice and review into the teaching of current grade-level content, instead of disrupting it." Trying to reteach all of last year in Sept-Oct never worked and isn't going to start working now.

    Thoughts from day 10 of this week: I am working twice as much to deliver 2/5 of content at 50% effectiveness to 2/3 of my students, and have only had time to do like 10% of my 5-year old's learning. This emergency distance learning model needs a rethink.

    Absolutely do-able to facilitate online with kids. The kids and teachers have loved the social aspect even more now that we are not seeing them in the school building everyday.

    Replying to @GagnonGagnond @ctfosnot and 2 others
    I have been using my kids' whiteboard and sharing live through Google Meet. I get students to put a 5 in the chat (meaning hand up) when they want to answer. They use paper on their end. It has been working well.

    Parents, you don't have to plan elaborate lessons to teach mathematics at home. Measurement is a critical skill that you can teach using tools you already have around your home.
