Question

Write a paragraph on "Life at home away from school and friends", of 100-150 words​

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

Answer:

Unlike the usual summer months, when children sing their carefree ditty, this year, kids are spending their vacations indoors — all in support of the ongoing battle against COVID-19.

These children are upset at having their holiday plans cancelled, and restrictions imposed on them as far as meeting friends or playing outdoors is concerned. But these young fellows have, in the last 40 days or more, learnt to engage themselves in constructive activities such as drawing, painting, helping in housework, studying online and so on. Moreover, they have also learnt that they are safe since they are at home.

We asked some children to draw and write down their impressions about coronavirus and their life under lockdown. The youngsters were quite forthcoming, and we are reproducing their impressions, in their raw form.
