How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
I feel like this whole pandemic has been like this melting snowman. Pieces of me are all over, nothing is where it belongs. I am trying to see the beauty in the world but sometimes things just get in the way, like the overgrown stick which is taking over the top of the snowman. Good things are happening in my life, my daughter is getting married, my older daughter had a new baby this past August, yet the pandemic is blocking my vision. I feel like my priorities are mixed up, sometimes the world is not as bright as it seems. The clouds are hiding the sun and the air is polluted with germs. The corona virus is still with us, people are still masked up and afraid to socialize.

My routines have changed drastically. I can no longer facilitate learning like I would in a regular classroom setting. English Language Learners, Students with disabilities are not able to get their one to one instruction, small group instruction, and differentiated instruction in remote learning. It is difficult to deal with students’ social- emotional needs. I am compelled to sit in front of a computer for indefinite periods of time leaving me with less time to address students with different modalities of learning.
