#ICYMI - #OCMBOCES plans to host students for in-person learning 5 days a week. Deputy Superintendent Colleen Viggiano says, There has been a lot of work done in measuring spaces, walking spaces, identifying what furniture we want to remove from classrooms in order to really spread out the desks the way we need to. In some cases, we’re changing furniture. OCM BOCES, Viggiano adds, is in a unique situation because many programs have smaller class sizes by design. Innovative... education and special education typically have eight to twelve students max with a teacher and an assistant in a classroom. While our furniture may have changed, and while we’ll have to be six feet apart, many of the instructional strategies that encourage collaboration and working together are still going to be used, because we know those are the skills our students need to be successful in the world, Viggiano says. Thank you to @newschannel9 for this excellent story!
