Part 1 Shelter In Place and Homeschooling.

Life just got a little weirder when the State of Texas says no school until May 4 (as of today), you must stay in your "shelter" and all businesses that are non essential must close. First the CDC says says masks don't help then the CDC says masks do help and everyone should wear them.

The best - of course - is homeschooling three different grades in the same house at the same time using 9 different interfaces - Zoom, Google Classroom, Seesaw, SMTX website, RenWeb, Microsoft Teams... ya know... NBD. Victoria is using her iPad, O'Neill acquired JZ's iPad, and Rebecca was given an iPad by SJE. We are learning our new routine fast and trying to get the hang of it. I'm not sure what they will actually learn during this time but at least it gives them something to do while "Shelter in Place"

When we are not learning we are trying to do fun things... change it up a bit and just trying to enjoy each other's company.
