virtual school starts again tomorrow and we have an email from the teacher saying she expects her 7yo students to be as "accountable" about their work right now as they would be in class and I want to SCREAM INTO THE FUCKING VOID BECAUSE 7YOS ARE NOT ACCOUNTABLE FOR ANYTHING

You can *try* to look at the schedule & figure out what stuff needs printing ahead of time, but it's not obvious! Stuff you'd think needed printing turns out not to be an activity they're meant to do, or else you're meant to switch over to the physical workbook (if you have one)

Last semester, the school gave parents a work-from-home schedule and let us do that with kids in our own time. But now that's seemingly no longer an option, because we have to pretend that this is Regular School once more, which means making adults live to a 7yo class schedule.

Zoom would be great for letting students talk in small groups, while superverised by the teacher, or doing one on one time. But having them all in one big meeting while the teacher talks and they can't interact with each other is just exhausting and bad and depressing.

I'm so done with this, you guys, and I only have the one kid! Do you know how much worse this is for parents with multiple kids in different grades? I've gone one friend with five kids, four of whom are doing virtual school; the fifth is still a baby. It's IMPOSSIBLE.
