Current DCPS distance learning process: Email 1: here's an email with six attachments. Some are to be printed out. Some refer to a book you might not have. Email 2: Here's your child's login for Microsoft Teams—which doesn't work on Android or Ipad.
Open Microsoft, Find Clever, which is not an app, just a site. Once you log in with credentials from Email 2, that will bring you to an overwhelming landing page with 12 different apps you may or may not be supposed to use. See if you can find Myon and login (w. different login)
Email 3: Sorry, here's new instructions for the week, including random PDF attachment worksheets. Email 4: Log into Microsoft Teams where you have a new inbox to monitor. Email 1 in Microsoft: Have you seen this new library of PDFs that we've uploaded here?
Email 5: Here's a video of a teacher reading a book to his class. Watching this might be optional — look in email 2 for directions. They're in chapter 12, our kid is lost.
Email 6: disregard all other emails, here are new credentials for another app you need to use for math homework this week. Do, or don't, use those workbooks we sent home last week.
AN UPDATE (from the much better organized pre-k class): No more zoom calls, here is info to download Microsoft Team App.

The wildest part of all this is that, when my wife called her, this seemed to be the first our 2nd grade teacher was hearing about it potentially being confusing at all.
