Short Description

This study aimed to describe the classroom emotional climate after quarantine due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Journals, questionnaires, and interview data were collected from nine students and two teachers in two second grade classrooms of a small, rural charter school in the Midwest. Results showed that the classroom emotional climate was overall positive for both students and teachers. Teachers reported more negative emotions than students. Safety procedures were an important part of returning to school.
