REFLECTION
One Year, Six Words. Health and physical educators reflect on the 2020-2021 school year and what it has been like teaching during the pandemic.
T
he “six-word memoir” format has been used in classrooms, best-selling books, and even as part of public art projects. Earlier this month, we invited the HPE community to reflect on what it was like to teach this year — and then tell that story in a photo or “just 6 words.” Here are some of those stories.
Year of growth like no other.
