'An enormous responsibility': COVID-19 through the eyes of Grade 3 teacher Emma Boswell
If you spoke with her high school teachers years ago, Emma Boswell says they would likely tell you they never expected her to enter the teaching profession. But if you spoke with Boswell herself now, you wouldn't be surprised she's currently teaching Grade 3 French immersion at West Kent Elementary in Charlottetown. Suddenly Boswell was forced to figure out a way of teaching 8- and 9-year-olds online, and in a second language. (Submitted by Emma Boswell)"It's unbelievable how resilient and adaptive [students] have been and for the most part, with almost no complaints," said Boswell.
