[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]2nd grade is only marginally better than first. The other grades seem less affected and surprisingly K seems more or less normal.[/quote]

Yeah, PK is optional, so it's not suprising that K is OK.  I think the worse-off kids will be those in 1st and 2nd right now.  Hopefully schools can devote some extra resources to them.  [/quote]

The early elementary kids, 1st-3rdish, are the worst off I think. A lot of K kids just came straight from day care which stayed open the whole time. Older ES, 4th-6th, could be a little more self motivated and know the technology more - plus they actually had a few years of normal school under their belts. The 1st graders are coming from literally all kinds of situations, even more so than usual. There are kids who were in private in person K last year. There are kids who’s day cares opened a K class. There are kids who were taught reasonably well at home by a parent, or were in a pod. Kids who went to the local TKD place for a learning hub - well, at least they were around other kids … and some have been isolated at home for a year and a half. It’s a mess and no one cares. I feel bad for all these kids and their teachers too. [/quote]
