LinkLinksOpinion Owain Williams in The 74: Worst. Summer Break. Ever. How One D.C. Third-Grader Is Bracing for the Pain of Quarantine Without the Pleasure of School By Editor On May 21, 2020 Last updated May 21, 2020 23 Share Things have really changed in my house. Most days, I wake up at about 7 a.m. I get ready for the day by eating breakfast, brushing my teeth and putting on my clothes. Four days each week, I log into third grade. I mean, I log on to video calls for school. Later, I go outside and play soccer by myself or shoot hoops. Sometimes, when he has time, I throw a baseball with my dad. I spend most of my day reading — and rereading — all the books I can get my hands on. I have this joke with my dad where I grab his old books off the bookshelf and tell him, “Hey Dad, I’m going to read Being and Time next.” Right now I’m trying to read The Nature and Destiny of Man. My dad just groans and rolls his eyes. 23 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
