essay on how I miss my school during this pandemic situation
Answers
Answer:
Over 90% of the world’s children and students have missed out on school because of coronavirus. Children everywhere have had their lives turned upside down. Right now, their future hangs in the balance.
We spoke to children in Somalia, Mexico and Ethiopia to hear how they were feeling during the COVID-19 pandemic, and how it was impacting their lives and their education.
HAWO*, 13, SOMALIA
Hawo’s family lost everything during the 2017 drought that affected many parts of Somalia. They left their village and have since settled in a new village where they are trying to rebuild their life.
I heard about coronavirus from my teachers. They told us that they were closing the school, but I didn't know the reason why. I asked my father, and he told me that there is a disease that affects people which they are afraid might spread in the school.
I worry a lot. I don't know if the school will be open again and I don't want to miss learning.
I’m so sad that I will miss school. I don’t know when we will resume so that I can continue with my education and meet my friends. This really worries me.
Now the school has been closed for about two months. They told us they will open the school three months from now.
I am also worried about my teachers. Most of them come from far places, and if the school closure continues they will leave us, and if they leave us we won't have any teachers.
To stay safe, I am staying at home. That’s what I am doing now.
I miss my friends.
I read over my lessons so I can keep learning at home. Other than that, I don't do much. In the village, we don't have TV or radio.
When we’re back at school I will be happy to see my friends and my teachers.
When I grow up, I want to be a teacher. I like to teach children.
