EDUCATION AT THE MICRO-SCHOOLS DURING COVID-19

T

he staff at the MicroSchools have been working diligently to learn how to best provide Adventist education in an online setting. They willingly took on the role of students as they learned how to use programs such as Zoom and Google Classroom. While the school buildings are empty and teachers miss interacting with their students in the classroom, many positives have come out of remote learning:

It is a blessing to have daily worship with the students in their homes. This

provides an opportunity for parents and younger siblings to join in this time of praise and prayer. •

Through Zoom, students can still see the faces of classmates and teachers and know that they are supported and loved.

In today's world of online resources, there is so much available to enhance student learning. Many companies have provided free accessibility to videos, educational games,

pdf editors, and other creative learning apps. Increased family time has been a blessing for many. There is extra time for families to play together and generally slow down and reconnect with each other.

Teachers and families are working together as a team to develop the mind, body, and heart of every child. Together, we are educating for eternity. —Submitted by Jai Dubyna, Administrator for Micro- Schools AB SDA Conference

The staff at Sylvan Meadows Adventist School miss having their students in the classroom - Jai Dubyna, Karel Blankenfeldt, Skyla McCreery, and Kalee VanWart.
