We all know that school will be very different from before COVID-19, and that it will bring many new opportunities and different experiences.
I know that being home schooled will be very different for me because I was always going to school in person, so it’s going to be very new and different for me and will be like exploring foreign lands.
I was very excited to be starting school again even if it meant that I wouldn’t be going to school physically, and that I would only be in a class with a few friends or kids from other classes I was in.
Considering that not many of my friends will be in the same class as me, except maybe one or two of my friends, if I need help not many people will be able to explain something in a way I will understand. I will have to ask quite a few questions from some of the other kids in my class in order to get a fraction of the help that I need. By being in a class surrounded by kids I don’t know, I will have a harder time explaining things to them if they need some assistance with the assignment.
All in all, apart from being in a class with some kids I don’t know, I am really excited to start school and see some of my friends again.
