The headlines this evening from the Indian Express.

[Rerun] For 2 years, starting March 2020, schools were completely shut for students in primary classes due to the pandemic. During this time, learning was at its minimum and only happened through weekly worksheets and activities that teachers would share on WhatsApp. So, after they returned to school, it was clear that even though they were in classes two years senior, they were not prepared for it. And it was put to the teachers to get them to catch up. But how did they do that?

To answer that, Indian Express’ Sukrita Baruah spent 5 weeks in a fifth grade maths classroom in Delhi to observe one teacher as she tried to bridge that learning gap. In this special episode, she joins host Shashank Bhargava to talk about what she observed. From challenges that the teacher faced in dealing with children who were at different levels and the lesson plans she used, to how family environments impacted learning and what experts say should be done going forward.
