It’s not even a skills issue — it’s a lack of confidence.
lost a lot of things: field trips, walking across that stage in cute little paper graduation caps, and valuable time establishing the building blocks of their education. My twins are now in fourth grade and have made many gains over the last few years. They’ve worked hard to make up for lost ground and learning how to be students when half of their educational career so far has been marked by topsy-turviness.
What has surprised me about my pandemic babies, though, is their own lack of confidence in their math skills. Even when my kids, it’s always phrased as a question rather than a statement: “16?” I can’t help but think their rocky educational foundation is at least partially responsible for their self-doubt.
One friend whose child is not yet school-aged had some interesting observations about her niece and nephew, who had very different pandemic experiences. I also asked a few elementary teachers and aides what they’ve seen recently in the classroom, and they are as worried too. A fourth-grade classroom aid thinks the skills are there, but the kids don’t seem aware theythose skills. “I think it started with skill, but they’ve probably caught up on that by now. Most of them. But it seems like kids who are gifted in every other area struggle with math confidence.” She’s not sure how to repair their lack of faith in themselves, though.
