The transition back to school

Jack, age 10

It was the first day back to school, Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) was finally over, man I sure didn’t like it. “Let’s hope these masks don’t change too much” I said.

I was in school and since we hadn’t been in school for so long, it felt awkward. But I like to learn new things. NTI wasn’t on that list, so I wanted to learn something at least at some point in the first week. First day was pretty boring though, I knew that people would fit into the school, but I don’t know to say that the masks would. It was very boring, I didn’t think that this would work too well, I mean some people were more sensitive than others. But I’m scared, I have so many friends who got covid. So that’s why I wish I could just turn covid into metal and put it on a hydraulic press, just gone.
