"I am not tech person..logging five kids in five different grades all happening at once can be stressful,” said single mother Channa Jackson, who talks with her son Lamar, as her daughters Mekiya,6, and Zakoria,7, listen to lessons online while her other daughter Lamaria, 9, does jumping jacks during a lesson break on Thursday, Oct, 8, 2020, at their home the Mount Pleasant neighborhood. They can stay focused in the virtual classroom for about 20 minutes, Jackson said. “After a while, I just think they get tired of it. Kids don’t want to be on the tablet. They fall back asleep.”
