Resources in this Collection
Find and Assess Credible Information Regarding COVID-19
With a tip of the hat to Cntl-Alt-Delete and other aggregators, we’ve collected a short set of frequently updated authoritative sources of information about the virus, tools for identifying misinformation, and a place to find out about solutions. Check it out…
Teaching About Coronavirus, Epidemics, Pandemics
News media and online educational tools are pulling together items from their collections to support educators and the public in learning about and teaching about the pandemic and related topics. Here is a starter list of what will certainly be a growing collection as more and more curriculum providers create materials. Check it out…
Writing Together, at Home and Online
A sojourn at home can be the occasion for lots of creativity around topics and projects of interest. For those with internet access and a suitable devices, there are also ways to connect with others as you write. Here are some of our favorites from our colleague organizations in the world of youth writing and publishing. Check it out…
Literature for Adults in the Time of Pandemics
Movie suggestions, lists of TV series to binge, virus playlists, and newly created livestreams of cultural events are being posted on Twitter all the time. But many NWP folks are turning to books while they “self-quarantine.” You can find reading suggestions on Twitter through the hashtag #quarantinereading, but we have collected here some of the more interesting ones. Check it out…
What if You Crave Books but Your Library is Closed?
We and our students might be craving books while we’re home but without the resources to drop lots of cash at Amazon or iBooks or Barnes & Noble. What we want is that magical institution which is a library, of course. But what if your library is closed? If you have internet access and a digital device, consider these options. Check it out…

Our nation’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic is unprecedented in scope and widespread in its impact, but we can be comforted in knowing that what we are doing contributes to saving lives as we #FlattenTheCurve.

That doesn’t make it easy. As teachers, we worry about and care for our own families and communities, but we also worry about and care for our school community, our institutions. It’s not clear how the next weeks will unfold, so we struggle to plan. (Teachers love to plan!)

But our students and families trust and count on us. So we trust and count on each other.

So here is a growing collection of information and ideas from your NWP colleagues to help you “reduce the hunt” and, maybe, take care of yourself a little too while those who can #StayAtHome do so, and all of us regardless, work to #FlattenTheCurve.

We’ll be adding new links and topics over time, particularly as our remarkable network gets to work connecting and designing and reflecting together. Follow the National Writing Project on social media and Yammer to get new postings. See you online!
