Are the reading wars over?
Has the COVID-19 pandemic affected reading instruction in any way?
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many schools to switch to remote learning, which presents unique challenges for teaching reading. Some schools have turned to online reading instruction programs, while others have emphasized independent reading and other literacy activities that students can do at home. There has also been concern about a potential "COVID-19 slide" in reading ability, as students have missed out on in-person instruction and opportunities to practice their reading skills.
