[CASL-L] morning meeting with students/movitvation

[Loretta Sullivan]

Hello everyone,

I hope all is well.  I am not sure if your school community is experiencing
the same thing, but we have many students not getting up in the morning to
join virtual morning meetings with their teachers.  Apparently, for some
parents, they are losing the battle to get them up early enough to start
their "new" school day/routines.

So my question is what ideas or strategies have been implemented to help
students get motivated to get up in the morning to participate in their
online learning?  We are trying to brainstorm ideas.  I suggested some type
of motivating reward or competition for most students that have joined
morning meeting each day with their teachers.  We also thought of making
sure teachers have set expectations and set routines/schedules as they
would in the classroom and have students sign using Google drawings.  We
also thought to use Google forms for a weekly check in and question that
would help students connect and share what they have been doing or what
they enjoy doing in general.

We are looking for ways to help parents get their students on track and
participate.  Any ideas are welcome and appreciated!  Thanks!

Respectfully,
