[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel bad for 1st grade teachers. My DD who was in person in private all last year is incredibly bored in public 1st. She’s normally very well behaved but I got a note from the teacher today letting me know she’s refusing to do some of her work because “it’s easy kindergarten work that she already knows”. She’s not wrong (it’s a lot of what she did last year) but it’s like 2 months into 1st grade, she’s just like “nope…” Sigh.[/quote] You pulled your DD out of private? That was such a bad decision. I know others IRL who did this and I’m like… why? Why wouldn’t you wait another year or two until things settle down? So dumb.[/quote] DP. I think many folks had a few faulty misconceptions that cost their kids 18 months of education, sports, and meaningful connection with friends. 1. If everyone wears a mask we won’t have many cases 2. The vaccine will stop transmission 3. The vaccine will provide sterilizing immunity Now more people are realizing that herd immunity will never be reached and interventions have a tradeoff. Many are being choosy about in person activities while they await a pediatric vaccine. But everyone is doing more than they were 18 months ago, and everyone I know is risking Covid for the sake of school and sports.[/quote]
