    Hi Sophie! Your resources are very nicely done! I agree that parents should not overwhelm their children with too much information. I am wondering if it is necessary to mention the term coronavirus or tell them that “Many people are getting sick”. I like how you also create a resource about transitioning to normal which can be just as difficult. This concern is often overlooked. I agree that a sense of routine and consistency is crucial.

    I’m super impressed with these Sophie. These resources look super professional and share a lot of information very accesibly. Great work!

    Hi Sophie,

    I just read your resource guides and would like to share them with my daughter and with friends that have pre-school age children. It that okay with you? I was particularly interested in the guide Anticipating the Return to “Normal.” It might be a long time before children are able to return to school and I imagine that it will be quite an adjustment for them.
    I imagine it was disappointing to you for your internship to have been interrupted this semester. It’s wonderful that you were able to continue remotely by doing research into this topic and to produce materials for teachers and families.
    I have a feeling I will see you again in other Praxis courses. Looking forward to that!

    Hi Sophie!
    This resource is so impressive and informative. It really looks and reads like something you would find online when searching for such information. I’m sure the parents at Friends Child Care Center will make great use of this 🙂

    Hi Sophie,

    You did a fantastic job with these resource guides. I like how you presented the information in a way that is easily accessible (very important for harried parents of young children!) while at the same time, very professionally. Your project is so utilitarian and I could see it getting shared widely!

    Hello Raechel. Your resource guide look great! My mother is a school psychologist, so these are the kinds of resources she has to provide to parents and children all the time. I think you really made something that’s incredibly useful in this crazy time of COVID.
