Teacher Insights with Leif Voltz

Welcome back to Teacher Insights at Tech Talk for Teachers. With this series, we celebrate teachers and the important role that you play in our lives and community. We learn about what is happening in virtual and hybrid classrooms across the country—what is working and what's challenging. This week, we meet with Leif Voltz, a middle school science teacher from Salk Middle School in Elk River, Minnesota. From remembering the announcement on March 14, 2020—when face-to-face learning was disrupted—to today, Leif, his students, and their families have experienced many shifts. Join our Digital Learning Specialists as they talk with Leif about his experiences during pandemic learning—from his worries about students who he hasn't seen this academic year to how he translates his energy that engages students when face-to-face to the virtual-learning environment. Leif shares, "We do something fun at the start of every day to help students feel safe and normal when everything isn't." Visit AVID Open Access for practical, easy-to-use strategies to include in your virtual, blended, or hybrid classroom.
