[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometimes you just get stuck with a really bad cohort and the terrible thing is that it lasts for six years in elementary school.  Third grade in my school is particularly bad too. I definitely think it’s some lingering Covid effects.[/quote]

I don’t buy Covid excuses.  These third graders have been in school for over 2 years now [/quote]

But the 3rd graders missed out on K, where the majority of behavioral expectations are set. They likely didn’t learn much in K either, so 1st and 2nd were a lot of catch up work. If you consider that they missed K, and then 1st was a bunch of makeup work and basic expectation setting for kids who hadn’t been in a group setting in many months … they’re probably still dealing with some after effects and will continue to do so.

Not covid’s fault.  There are just a lot of terrible parents.  Any child with half decent parents could show up to school at any point and not swear, wait their turn, follow simple directions, not be destructive.  This has nothing to do with Covid and everything to do with parenting. [/quote]

I agree. I work with several elementary grades and no grade is specifically socially impacted by Covid — there are kids with significant negative behaviors throughout the grades, and also perfectly lovely classes throughout the grades.[/quote]
