It’s been a year. A whole year since we started working remotely. A whole year of virtual (and sometimes hybrid) school. A whole year of the COVID-19 pandemic. A whole year of wondering, “will we survive this?” The answer being, “… mostly.”
To my child's teachers... Thank you!
How I was reminded to change my attitude about school this year
Remote learning for 9 weeks…. 9 whole weeks… at least! That’s the news we got last month about the re-opening of schools during the COVID-19 pandemic. Yes, I know it’s safer for our awesome teachers and families, especially those that are at risk. Yes, I know that bringing the kids into school would both cost a lot more for cleaning and possibly put the kids at risk. Yes, I want to be a good citizen and protect others. However… NINE. WHOLE. WEEKS. TEACHING. AT. HOME. I was terrified. I AM TERRIFIED.
