PAGE A8, KEIZERTIMES, APRIL 24, 2020 BIRDS, continued from Page A1 SCHOOLS: ‘The learning curve is pretty steep’ (Continued from Page A1) Elementary teacher Dena Archibald. The process of online teaching may be relatively simple for some teachers who have experience with technological instruction. For others, it isn’t always as easy. “Learning the new technology has been the hardest part,” said Keizer Elementary teacher Terry Tucker. “The learning curve is pretty steep, especially since we’re having to learn the technology so quickly.” While some may face the challenge of new technology, others are struggling with the lack of in-person interaction with their kids. “The biggest challenge I am facing with distance learning is not being able to NEWS TIPS? If it's happening in Keizer, or to someone from Keizer — WE WANT TO KNOW. kt@keizertimes.com physically see my students every day. I miss their stories, their faces, their jokes, and their active participation. I also miss their hugs every morning,” said Gubser Elementary teacher Beth Gibbins. Class assignments, activities and schedules are posted each Monday by 8 a.m. in Seesaw or Google Classroom and most teacher- initiated contact is delivered through an online format. For those students who are unable to participate in online learning, the district will provide an approximation of this learning via paper packet distribution at the grab-and- go meal locations in the area — which are at most of the schools in the district. However, many teachers are having success with their students only doing work online. “I am so thrilled that every single student in my class has done something in our Google Classroom. Many of them have completed everything so far,” Young said. For students who are unable to attend the designated face-to-face instruction times, teachers can record a meet distribution for those students. Even though there may have been mishaps for some educators, the support that teachers received through the process from parents and peers has helped them greatly. “The fi rst week was rough. I made tons of errors and my poor families hung in there with me. This week seems to be going much smoother. I am thankful for my families’ patience and understanding,” Gibbins said. “As I learn more, I do my best to share my knowledge with my families. I feel like my families and my school staff are working together and doing a fabulous job of giving each other grace and support.” Before week two of distance learning began, SKDS teachers, along with Superintendent Christy Perry, laid out a list of eight tips for parents on how they can encourage their kids through this process, including communicating, asking for help and giving grace. Teachers want their kids to know, whatever is going on in the world, they are in their corner. “Being organized is crucial in order to continue learning the new things I need to know, plan lessons well and keep in touch with families for support and check-ins,” Archibald said. “It’s all about helping students,” Tucker added. Councilor Kim Freeman applauded residents for turn- ing out to talk about the issues surrounding backyard fowl and coming armed with informa- tion that helped commissioners arrive at their recommendation. Arcibal offered written tes- timony for the city council’s public hearing, which was held via teleconferencing. Some residents hoped to re- move the stipulation of keep- ing chickens confi ned to coops GRANTS, continued from Page A1 “The Chamber does not represent all businesses in Keizer,” Herrera said. Clark said that the city would also reach out to the Latino Business Alliance and its members when the program stands up. Councilor Dan Kohler appeared troubled at the prospect of selecting nine businesses for the grants out of the hundreds that might qualify, but supported the action. “It’s not much, but I consider it a good start,” said Herrera. Potential projects that sudoku and suggested six-foot fencing was enough to contain the birds, but that suggestion didn’t pass muster with either the planning commission or the city council. Owners will still need to maintain active super- vision when chickens or ducks are outside coops or keep them locked up. Councilor Dan Kohler had no issue with raising the limits, but stressed owner responsibil- ity. “As long as they are proper- ly cared for, it’s probably okay,” Kohler said. The city’s new rules on chickens and ducks do not su- persede those of home owners associations such as McNary Estates. The council also changed another portion of the devel- opment code unrelated to birds with its approval. Homeowners had been limited to three-and- a-half-foot fencing in front yards, but changes in manufac- turing have made fencing less than four feet tall hard to come by. Four-foot fences are now permitted in such spaces. lost out included: prepping city-owned properties to be placed on the market for lease; development and support of sports facilities; revitalization of public investment projects, installation of a food truck pod on city-owned property; and paying consultants to advise the city on creation of an urban renewal district or expand Keizer’s urban growth boundary for employment land.
