Say goodbye to large classes, shared supplies and ball ball when schools come back after the pandemic.
AsNewly homschooling parents Waiting up with impatience the day children return to school and students anxiously anticipate their friends again, teachers, administrators and education managers strive to design a plan for the way in which the students and staff can safely return to classrooms.Teachers work hard create a safe and welcoming environment for students in their classrooms, but it will become more and more difficult in aPost-coronavirus world. The schools we know are filled with communal sharing, packed corridors and children sitting near others - but much of this standard should be adjusted on the return of students. We talked with experts to get an overview of what might lack schools after the coronavirus pandemic. And for more information on how the world changes, check these10 strange ways life will be different after coronavirus locking.
1 No more big classes
We have a good news for parents who complain about large class sizes - they are probably a thing from the past. Having 32 students in a classroom never feels that the safest idea, but how can schools change class size while providing equitable services to each student?
"We will not be able to be in a big setting, then the question is how do we manage? Wonders Gresham-BarlowSuperintendent of school district Katrise Perera, EDD, whose team works to find the best solution. Schools should consider different ways to reduce courses in two so that social distance is feasible in the classroom.

2 No more busy cafeterias
The days of the dining room are gone with screaming children dropping the steam between classes. "If you bring children to the building, you have to feed them, but it might seem different," says Perera. "Perhaps a lot of grab-and-go, because gathering in a large cafeteria will probably not be allowed."
College teacher Joseph Glatzer think that students can have "lunch in smaller groups in teacher classrooms rather than in the cafeteria or outside the benches". Although each school can vary from the way they reorganize lunch, it will certainly not look like the same thing as before.
3 More contact sports in gym class
Staying at six feet apart is impossible by playing any contact sport. "P.e. Classes and organized sports leagues should be concentrated on the individual and not collaboration to prevent the sharing of equipment and physical contact," says the principal of primary schoolMeredith Essalat, author ofThe teacher too honest. Sports like struggle, football and basketball will have to be reconsidered as a whole. And for elementary school students, "we will see structural changes to recreation," says Perera.
4 No more school dances or graduations
"Say goodbye to the birthday celebrations of the class or the film and popcorn parties for a well done job. Schools will have to work as strictly places for sterile and simple businesses," says Essalat. The sharing of food in the walls of the school will probably be strictly forbidden to avoid potential transmission. In the same lines, "we will not see school dances, whether it's square, Polka or Ball," Essalat adds.
The graduations will also have to be reconfigured because they traditionally require several hundred students come closer to an auditorium. Schools may need to consider other ways to honor their students' achievements in the future. And for more changes we predict, here's8 things you can never see on the public transport of coronavirus.
5 No more practical group projects
Teachers know the enriching benefits of having studied students on school collaboration projects, but any practical group project will have to be put on hold.Educator and author Karen Grosssays that we can see more "individual projects carried out in student offices rather than interactive projects committed." Although students are unable to work physically together in the classroom, we can see an increase in online collaboration between students.

6 No more high price
Students are used to cuddle or reach five friends at school, but students and teachers will have to remove these signs of affection.Junior high school teacher Jennifer Cervantes said, "I used to greet the children at the door and five five or gave them a fist bump, and I know I will not do it anymore."
Many teachers who implement small physical gestures will have to change their approach. "Young students who receive validation by High Fives will now have to rely on facial gestures of their teachers to feel recognized and celebrated," says Essalat.
7 More shared supplies
Most teachers hold a reserve of additional supplies in their classroom in case students forget their own or can not buy their own, but it seems that all communal items are now out of the table. "From my point of view, all that allows you to touch shared - even to leave a student borrowing a pencil and then return it - is out of the question in the foreseeable future," says Glatzer.
Teachers are worried about what this will mean for the welcoming and inclusive environment they strive to create in their classrooms. Cervantes emphasizes that objects such as pencil sharpeners and lobby passes should also go. Orange Catholic SchoolsSuperintendent Erin C.O. BarisanoEDD adds: "There will be no shared school supplies, such as library, art, writing, iPad or chronage books."
