Here's what teachers think about coronavirus. A special shoutout to Joe Bryant, Larry Bencivengo, and Jen McLellan for starring in this episode.
This episode was created when Washington State was the epicenter of coronavirus (though now it is New York by FAR). But, Washington was still the first place where coronavirus appeared in the United States, so students here were among the first to be affected by the changes brought as a result of COVID-19. This episode was originally created as a Youtube video where you can see all of the teenager's faces, names and ages, so if you're interested in watching it that way, here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hscvQvknW58&t=6s
