Abstract
We describe efforts to use blurred home-school boundaries in the COVID-19
pandemic to co-design learning activities that provide new opportunities for teachers, students,
and families to engage with science practices together. This work aims to support the intellectual
and cultural resources of home and family life during this pandemic and beyond in ways that
draw from and repurpose existing infrastructures. We share our design evolution, including
commitments, ongoing tensions, and responses to constraints
