Periodically I'm going to write about life in the new age of "covid classrooms". My definition for this term is a class (whether for the purposes of school, work, or other) that is taught remotely due to the wrath of the covid virus. Today's entry stems from an exchange during my kindergartener's class being taught remotely due to a temporary covid closure.
The names have been changed to protect the innocent.
My Kid: Miss Michaels is frozen!
Jenna: Aw, Miss Michaels is frozen again!
My Kid: Miss Michaels is frozen...we can do whatever we want! Woo hoo!
Sammy: Let's pretend we're frozen.
Zeus (hey, if I'm changin' the names I'm gonna get creative): Yeah! Let's do it!
Annika: Wait, how do you stop moving? I can't do it.
Jeremy: You just need to stay still and only breathe through your mouth like this (demonstration ensues)
Miss Michael: Ok, Friends, I'm back. You know what's great about all this?
Silence
Miss Michael: Comcast says there is nothing wrong! Okay, so where were we?
My dear Educators, may God bless you with strength, patience, and humor in these trying times!
