remote learning AND TUTORING
Every day our students face the disruption and uncertainty of homelessness. On average, a child impacted by homelessness changes school 3 or 4 times each year. The pandemic has created additional challenges, cutting off important social interactions with peers, teachers, and activities.

Our tutors offer a consistent, reliable and positive presence. They champion a child's efforts, achievements and help that student focus on his or her personal potential. Due to Covid-19 mandates and the safety of our tutors and students, our tutoring program is now remote.

RESOURCES FOR "READ WITH ME" REMOTE LEARNING
Remote tutoring sessions can be noisy. There may foot traffic through a make-shift learning space and students may be tired, distracted by younger siblings or experiencing "screen fatigue" after a day of online classes. To offset distractions during tutoring and engage pre-k children with early literacy, SOWMA has developed "Read with Me" activities.
