Winging It Podcast: Teaching Elementary School Online (part 1)

In Part 1 of this episode of Winging It, PALCS educators Mr. Cooper and Mr. Packer share an authentic look at teaching in a virtual classroom.

From “daddy school” at home to creative strategies that keep students engaged—like interactive games, rewards, and relationship-building—this conversation highlights the real work behind effective online instruction.

You’ll also hear how PALCS teachers use tools like Zoom and breakout rooms to create collaborative, meaningful learning experiences, while supporting student confidence and growth.

At PALCS, a PA cyber charter school, these approaches are central to delivering high-quality, personalized K-12 online learning in Pennsylvania.
