With Wuhan Coronavirus spreading in New York City, parents, Parent Teacher Associations, and schools seem to be inevitably headed for extended shutdowns and quarantines. The Department of Education is crossing its fingers, wiping down all surfaces, and hoping to avert the worst without closing schools, but parents are going to need contingency plans.
Do Soylentils have recommendations for online resources that members of NYC's school boards can share with the parent community to help kids keep up with their school work? Khan Academy is an excellent resource for math & science; it doesn't span every subject but something like it that grade school kids can understand would be ideal.

It seems that people have been trained to believe that they are helpless outside of classrooms, to the point where learning anything is nigh impossible. This while many proclaim that schools help students 'learn how to learn.' It's a shame that in an age where people have access to a vast amount of high-quality information, most do not take advantage of it.
