Parenting During Corona Virus [COVID-19] – Home activities for kids not in school ($3 Off)

March 19, 2020 By TeacherTravis Off

Is Parenting During Corona Virus [COVID-19] a Challenge? Are your kids at home 24/7 without anything constructive to do? Like it or not, preparing a daily lesson that mimics being in school may be too intensive for most parents. However, parking students in front of the TV sometimes is the easiest way to keep kiddos calm. The problem though, is that comes with parental guilt and leaves your children prone to zoning out passively instead of being engaged and thinking critically. K12Movieguides has a remedy for that. Download a PDF movie guide, then either print it out or use the digital version and tablet/laptop/phone to input answers. Click the search icon above for over 350 movie guides.

Tips for using K12MovieGuides

  1. Print one, double-sided movie guide for each student/child (or use digital version, see below)
  2. Preview each question on the movie guide as you come to it before resuming the movie
  3. Pause at the times designated on the movie guide
    • Discussion here is great, encourage and allow students/children to share their ideas and thoughts for any question
    • Discourage students/children from simply copying answers, or writing short non-descriptive answers
    • If needed, and if time allows, feel free to rewind and show important parts of the movie for additional analysis
  4. After completing the short answers on the movie guide, allow 5-10 minutes for each essay question at the end
  5. On average, completing this movie guide will require about 30-45 minutes in addition to the length of the movie

Digital Version Tips

  • It is intended for a paperless, 1:1 tablet/iPad classroom, or homeschooling environments
  • Ask students to download a PDF editor app if they don’t already have one. It needs to have a save function as well. I used Foxit PDF.
  • Host the file. I used google drive to share a folder with students.
  • When complete, ask students to save the file in a designated google drive folder using a naming convention. (I use LastnameFirstnameMovieGuide.pdf)
