RUTH BONNEVILLE / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS 49.8 - In-class family, Grade 3 student, Anna Milne-Karns. Grade 3 student, Anna Milne-Karn at her school, Ecole Laura Secord School. Photos of her in her classroom, walking the school hallway and checking out her favourite fish in the school's fish tank on Friday for Maggie's school feature. Note: Principle of the school gave me strict guidelines in what I could photograph including not getting other students in the photos. 49.8 SCHOOLING, VIRUS THREE FAMILIES: following three families — a homeschooling family, remote learning family and in-class instruction family — this year to document pandemic learning curves. Part III will run next weekend (Jan. 23). The Milne-Karns decided to keep Anna in school, despite the option to go remote for the first two weeks of January. Anna is excited to be back in class -- but her mothers say she's confused about why not all her classmates are there. They decided to keep Anna in school for her mental health sake. Being an only child, isolation has been tough on her. Maggie Macintosh Education Reporter - Winnipeg Free Press Jan 15,. 2021
