ReplyDeleteIt's a shame to witness the Caballeiro family undergo such a tragedy, and would probably be the most tragic of all stories involved in your thread, however, with the coronavirus scare, the school children must have been mortified to think they were in danger of catching it. Overall, you clearly identified the problem within each story.
ReplyDeleteHi Cade,
ReplyDeleteI thought your articles were very interesting. One that stood out to me is the one about the teachers and students returning back to school after the coronavirus scare. The coronavirus has been all over the news and new cases are being found everyday which is very scary. I think that diseases are very easy to spread so the school did the right thing in ensuring all the students safety.
