Great to see so many teachers and parents embracing home learning! I teach in Hong Kong and we are 8 weeks into it at the moment! Crazy times! If any use i got a list of all the educational companies offering free subs and resources to help over on my site. I would recommend Go Noodle just for a break from classwork and to get the kids moving 🙂

Wow, you are a lot closer to where it started than I am. I will definitely check your site out, and maybe link to it in one of my articles. You are right about the Go Noodle break. I also found stretches and things helpful, but Go Noodle gives the teacher a break, too.
I hope you are your students are well.
