My name is Mojo Rose, and I am an elementary school teacher who draws comics about what life is like in the classroom. Lately, I’ve been drawing comics about what it’s like OUT of the classroom (thanks, Covid…).

When the pandemic first hit the United States and they closed down schools, they said we only needed to hunker down and quarantine for 2 weeks. I thought I was a realist and didn’t really believe them. A month of school closures sounded more likely. 11 months later, and it turned out I was actually an optimist.

As we approach the one year mark of the pandemic and online learning, I wanted to share these comics about what teaching during Covid-19 is really like. From the magic of the “mute all” button to the horrors of brown sink water, take a look at life in a school from the people who are trying their best to run the show as normally as they can (or at least not add more trauma to the children).

When you are done, read more of my comics in my previous post here

    Bruh everyone is over COVID go ahead and dislike me but Covid is stupid and everyone is over it. Do they think we have to wear masks the rest of our lives? Like when does it end?

    SOOOO many times the kids have told me about sleep overs and parties that are in violation of our covid rules. How can so many parents (it's not the fault of the kids) be so STUPID!

    Hopefully only their direct family faces consequences and gets sick and not other innocent people who had no choice but to be near them. Disgusting trash.

    I don't understand why the teacher is so worried. The kids could've been social distancing while those events and wearing masks. I don't understand the problem.

    Do you know kids? You can tell them over and over again, but after one minute they are forgetting about any COVID-19 rules.

    I don't like it when I have free time because I will feel like I haven't done enough But I'll also be sad if I don't have free time.
