I was recently reading the May/June 2021 issue of \u201cThe Science Teacher\u201d a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.\xa0\xa0In this issue, I read the section \u201cEditor\u2019s Corner\u201d written by the editor, Ann Haley MacKenzie.\xa0\xa0Ann wrote an article entitled \u201cWhat the 2020-2021 School Year Taught Us About Science Teaching and Learning.\u201d
The school year has drawn to a close, although many schools have extended learning into the summer to address the gaps in learning experienced this year due to COVID.\xa0\xa0Some schools were remote all year, some have been face-to-face, and others have been hybrid.\xa0\xa0The year was surreal and reminded many of their first year of teaching or starting teaching all over again.
