40 min is too much for kindergarten!!! Seems like maybe 20 min of direct instruction and then students would work on independent activities? Then maybe another 20 min Zoom lesson and more activity choices?

My sister-in-law is skipping virtual kindergarten with my niece, instead, they are gonna raise chickens. A year of pandemic schooling will be lost, in favor of life.

Although some states in the US have decided to reopen schools and hold in-person classes, reports suggest that despite some states restarting in-person classes, several large cities like Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, and Miami have revealed that for the foreseeable future they will continue with online classes and distance learning. As per reports, the states that have decided to re-open schools have already begun to face problems as students and staff alike have had to be quarantined after fresh outbreaks in several schools. In the state of Mississippi, the Corinth School District since re-opening has already had to contend with eight confirmed cases of COVID-19. These eight confirmed cases may have come in contact with dozens of people before their infection was discovered and therefore authorities have requested over 100 people to quarantine themselves as soon as possible.
