I’ve written several columns during the pandemic that have appeared in The Washington Post, all which were fairly popular and most which were not very uplifting.
Here they are:
- A teacher predicts what his classroom (and others) will look like in the fall
- Teacher: Eight concerns about school this fall that are robbing me of sleep
- A teacher’s deepest fears about 2021: Students who disappeared, covid-19 myopia and six more
- Teacher: What’s missing from calls for summer school to stem ‘learning loss’
- Thirteen things that should happen in schools now — but most probably won’t
- The kind of teaching kids need right now
- The pandemic is affecting the third straight school year — and this teacher is very, very worried
