We went through a planet wide crisis. Aside from the dead, there are millions with lingering long term Covid. People are still carrying Covid to packed gatherings. To me now is not the time to holler about kids falling behind. Hell everyone is falling behind. Careers of course and higher education uncertainties have been derailed. Maybe it’s time to think outside the box. Get the kids reading again or reading at all. Then add more reading. Reading about science, math and history. A giant scoop of music/ art/ physical activity and then as they wake up jumpstart the technical math and science. Just an idea.
