We have experienced a full year of disrupted teaching and learning. Some of us have been completely remote. Others have been teaching in the classroom while social distancing since September. And many more have shifted multiple times between teaching delivery models, as the effects of the pandemic waxed and waned through our communities. The impact of the pandemic on the social and emotional health of our students, their families, and fellow teachers and staff cannot be underestimated. With today's episode, we are starting a six-part journey to address social and emotional learning during COVID-19. We talk with Cherie Spencer, a Social and Emotional Learning Coordinator in Galveston, Texas, about how we can help each other recognize and address the trauma of these times.
