Okay, #saskedchat / #skpoli -- I& #39;m floored.
I am a strong advocate, whenever possible, about the language of commitment (vs complaint) and about the need for creative problem-solving. As teachers, we do this on a daily basis. We make the impossible happen on a shoestring. BUT-

No, the budget saved with the short move to supplemental learning is not enough to cover the funding required to cover the recommendations. Not close. Not ANYWHERE close.

We can& #39;t.

So, to be clear, I am not going to take this time to figure out virtual field trips (bc we can& #39;t share 5 ipads with 30 kids right now), explore the best practices for teaching math without manipulatives (I& #39;ve bought 99% of what I have and it& #39;s not enough to give to all)...
