Education systems worldwide have encountered unprecedented challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Undergirded by theories of lived curriculum, emergent curriculum, and posthumanist reconceptualization of curriculum, this study explored the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and school closures on a diversity of Ontario families that include PreK-12 children and youth. The study employed a collective biography methodology to make sense of what and how learning opportunities were produced at home in Stage I (learning at home during the lockdown in Spring and Summer) and Stage II (online and face-to-face learning in the Fall).
