A Look Back: My Washington Post Series Of Columns On Teaching During The Pandemic

I thought that new – and long-time – readers might find it interesting if I began sharing my best posts from over the years. You can see the entire collection here. I’ll start with my favorites from earlier this year.

 

 

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
