Strategies for Managing Stress in Back to School 2020

Malala Yousafzai said, “Let us remember: one book, one pen, one child, and one teacher can change the world.”  And while one computer might need to be included, distance learning has not changed this profound truth. If you have felt more overwhelmed the last few weeks with the start of school and distance-learning, you might find some strategies and reassurance in this latest episode of Try, Try Again with Katherine Velez. I provide five strategies to try and help with the anxiety many parents, students, and teachers are feeling as well as interviewing two teachers, Wendy Haagenson and Suzanne Verner, who provide humor and insight in this new phase of collective distance-learning that I hope you will find authentic, helpful, and reassuring.  Please subscribe to Wendy’s resource for little ones at http://handsonprek.substack.com/
