親身上課與網上上課：有什麽分別？
由於新冠疫情，我在親身上課與網上上課之間來回切換。兩種情況是有分別的。我想和你們分享一下我的經驗。
在親身上課的日子，我早上七時就要起床了。我眼睛只開一半，就要梳洗準備和吃早餐。然後爸爸或者媽媽駕車載哥哥和我上學去。在網上上課的日子，我八時起床，可以多睡一點！我吃個小早餐，準備以最好的樣子在鏡頭前面出現，就參與網上的課堂會議。
在親身上課時，我用鉛筆和筆記簿寫老師要求我們寫的筆記。在網上上課時好一點，我不用寫很多字，倒是用手提電腦打筆記，又酷又容易。
我們親身在學校時，我和同學們是不准在午飯時間講話的，因爲我們吃飯時要把口罩脫下。如果我們講話，病毒就會傳播了。在網上上課的日子，我到家裏的厨房吃飯。雖然沒有朋友們和我一起，但我和家人可以談天説地。
在親身上課的日子，放學時我要把我的東西收拾好，乘校巴回家。在校巴上，我們要帶着口罩，人人分開坐着，所以實在有點悶。我回到家裏，首先要洗澡，然後穿上乾凈的衣服，才能摟一下媽媽和爸爸。在網上上課的日子, 我放學時只要把手提電腦關掉就行了。我不用把書包帶到任何地方，而且很快就可以摟媽媽和爸爸。還有，我絕對沒機會把做功課需要用的課本遺留在學校裏！
我真的很想親身上課，但網上上課也很酷和很方便。而且，我完全不用帶口罩！
In-person vs. Online School: What's the Difference?
Terence Kim
I have been switching back and forth between in-person school and online school because of COVID-19. There are differences between the two situations, and I would like to share my experiences with you.
For in-person school, I wake up at 7 am in the morning. With my eyes half open, I get myself ready and have a simple breakfast. Then Daddy or Mommy drives my brother and me to school. For online school, I wake up at 8 am. More sleep for me!
I have a small breakfast, get ready to look my best in front of the camera, and join a Zoom meeting for the day.
For in-person school, I use my pencils and notebooks to take down notes that my teacher tells us to. Online school is better in this aspect. Instead of writing a lot, I use my laptop to type my notes. It’s cool and easy.
For in-person school, my classmates and I are not allowed to talk during lunchtime because we take off our masks. If we start talking, viruses will spread. For online school, I go to the kitchen at home and eat there. Even though there are no friends around, I can talk a lot with my family.
At the end of the day for in-person school, I pack my belongings and take the school bus home. On the bus, we must keep our masks on and sit far apart from one another. It is kind of boring on the bus. Once I get home, I have to shower and get into clean clothes before I can hug my mommy and daddy. Whereas for online school, I just close my laptop at the end of the school day. I don’t have to lug my school bag anywhere, and I can get a hug from my mommy and daddy much sooner. And there’s no chance of me leaving my books at school when I am supposed to bring them home for homework!
I wish I could go to school in person, but online school is still cool and convenient. And I don’t have to wear a mask at all!
