Journal entry on Corona Virus
Answers
Explanation:
Since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic in early 2020, we have lived through an upheaval that has changed each of our lives and will become part of our global history. Journaling can help students reflect on and process the loss, uncertainty, and changes that they have experienced during these difficult times. Students can also use journaling to document, for their future selves or future historians, how their lives were impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. This resource is designed to help both teachers who are setting up student journals for the first time as well as those who have already established practices around journaling in their classrooms.
This resource also contains journal prompts you can use with your students, which we compiled with the help of educators on Facing History’s English and Language Arts Advisory Board. To skip to the journal prompts, click on the categories below:
