In addition, children from temporarily occupied territories will be able to watch lessons on the Ukrainian Education and Science Ministry’s website (via Facebook and YouTube).
As UNIAN reported earlier, the National Online School project would be launched across the country on April 6. The project will provide access to distance learning for all Ukrainian students from 5th to 11th grades amid the coronavirus quarantine.
Within the project, 40 Kyiv teachers will actually become teachers for children across Ukraine. Today, lessons are being shot daily in line with the balanced curriculum of the Ministry of Education and Science, developed jointly with teachers.
The project will focus on teaching the Ukrainian language and literature, Ukraine’s history, world history, English, physics, algebra, geometry, geography, chemistry, and biology.
