    Happy New Year! This episode focuses on my time supporting a hybrid language arts classroom of emerging learners. We have made it through two quarters of the school year, but there remain challenges. In this episode, I offer additional suggestions for acknowledging student work submissions and providing marks for tasks that are not your traditional paper and pencil tasks. Tune in for a few "new" ideas to kick off 2021 in the virtual classroom.
