That being said, I do feel like I need to add that I´m not trying to drum up any sympathy. I love my job, I love my workplace, and I´m even a little excited at the opportunity to get the training (at my school´s expense) to build my skills. But like 89th said, even when the final product is not as good as it would be under normal conditions, and even when it looks like "canned" plans and like not much effort went into it, more likely than not a lot of effort did go into figuring out how to reach the students and how to teach the students and how to maintain those relationships from a distance.
A couple of my interwebs friends are teachers. Without a doubt, their situation is asstastic. School's open? Okay, how do they not get COVID? School's not open? Okay, prepare for more work, not less, and a mountain of hangups as everyone gets used to that kind of learning environment.
What makes me feel a little better about all this is that the entire working world is in some type of difficult situation; everyone's dealing with this, one way or another. Means there's a lot more incentive for understanding and flexibility. Bad management can't claim ignorance about he pandemic.

@Optimistic sorry if I missed it ... are you a teacher now?
That’s cool! May I ask what grade levels or subjects do you teach? -

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

I sense a political motive as poorly masked as the populace.

It looks accurate
OMG
This from 10 days ago
The Los Angeles Teacher’s Union is one of the largest in the state, and the “United Teachers Los Angeles” say public schools should not reopen unless their demands are met.
Their demands include implementing a moratorium on private schools, defunding the police, increasing taxes on the wealthy, implementing Medicare for all, and passing the HEROES Act, which allocated and additional $116 billion in federal education funding to the states.
The unions demands also took aim at charter schools.

The way our civilization has advanced, two-thumb typing is way more important then cursive writing anyway. Do they still offer typing class? Have the adapted it to focus on two-thumb typing?

So what, specifically, is the plan when a teacher gets Covid? How about students? Food handlers?
It would be interesting to know how many schools simply haven’t figured it out yet.
