Practice becomes a habit
Don’t wait for re-entering school to teach them essential skills. While home, have them wash their hands when they touch their face, sneeze, or cough. Help make fun reminders or visual cues.
Today, I met my daughter’s tchr during tech pick up. I told her she was doing a great job. I couldn’t see most of her face bc of her mask, but her sigh was audible & I saw her shoulders relax as she thanked me. Tchrs are working so hard! Remember to thank them. #telltheteacher

Here are some phrases you can use at home.
