Description
Through a series of teacher-led, generative, timed, in-class writing prompts, students will be guided toward the creation of a short narrative that reflects on losses and insights they’ve experienced during the pandemic by (1) considering the time before “now,” (2) the time when disruption was experienced most intensely, and (3) what is experienced differently in the indefinite and ever-morphing “new now.”
