- The first remote control came to the the market in 1950. It was created by Zenith Radio Corporation and they dubbed it "Lazy Bones."
- Although we are working remotely, nothing about our work could be called lazy.
- In fact, you are probably holding a lot of concern to keep kids engaged in a virtual learning format.
- Pen commandment: Be the remote, Not the TV
- Don't fall into the trap of thinking that in order to engage kids, you must entertain them.
- The Lazy Bones remote was still connected to the TV by a wire. In the same way, the lessons and strategies you are using now should stay genuine to your teaching style and personality.
- Today's notes:
- You control the channel. Do try new ideas, but don't feel locked in. If you can't imagine teaching it this way in the future, don't keep doing it now.
- Push the right buttons. Be consistent, so that your kids and families know when to tune in.
- Recharge your batteries. Take time for yourself.
- Pen recommendation: Crayola Washable Gel Pens
