The widespread prevalence of COVID-19 pandemic has affected academia and parents alike. Due to the sudden closure of schools, students are missing social interaction which is vital for better learning and grooming while most schools have started modular and online classes. This has become a tough routine for the parents. In this time of uncertainty, families and teachers are struggling to help children learn at home. Many kids and adults are struggling with self-regulation, finding it difficult to stay motivated and focused on schoolwork without the structure of the classroom. With the proper coordination and support of parents and teachers of Alitagtag Central School on assisting pupils on their learning, it can say that this home-learning set-up is a first step towards the new normal. Different communication strategies were given by the teachers to assist parents and learners on their learning at home. Prepared by: PRIMILA A. MENDIOLA Noted: YOLANDA A.
