INTRODUCTION
In this past year, the world has faced a
global pandemic and many students are attending school through remote learning.
Students have had to change their whole lifestyle and this has caused them to
worry and stress at such a young age. This is a problem because although
students are staying safe with their families, they are not getting the
emotional support they need. Today, you will be assigned to examine the problem
of the lack of social emotional support for remote learners and develop a
solution for those students. Then, you will write a how-to letter to your
teacher or parent on different ways they can support you at home.
