Distance Learning Strategies for K-2 Teachers

Registration Open: A Week of Virtual PD for K-2 Teachers

Educators,

You're invited to a week of free, virtual learning with PBS KIDS. Hear from teachers across the country as they  share successes and lessons learned in the transition to distance learning this past spring. Their stories of how they connected with families, used media and tech to encourage creation, and tackled distance learning in the absence of tech will provide inspiration and foundational tips you can use to prepare for an uncertain year - where some kind of distance learning is likely to be a reality.

Join us from August 3 - 6 for four days of online learning and fun with a community of teachers like you!
