QUARANTINE IS…Poems by 3rd-5th grade students from Camelot and Montgomery Elementary Schools in NEISDin San Antonio, Texas

When our teaching artists sat down to plan our 2020-2021 creative writing workshops for Camelot Elementary and Montgomery Elementary, they couldn’t avoid the obvious: they would be asking students to write and create in the face of a global crisis, an array of technical difficulties, the coldness of distance learning, and the ever-lurking threat of illness and loss.

In light of these realities, QUARANTINE IS… is a gift that speaks to the resiliency, creative spirit, and commitment of the administrators and educators at each campus, our teaching artists, but above all, our young authors.
