As leaders around the world are figuring out how and when to send children back to school, there is also a lot of discussion about how that will look. There will be some changes that will be different for our students/children. This book talks about some things that might be different when kids go back. As we have learned throughout this pandemic, nothing is certain. So, the book talks in language like "might" or "probably" since we just don't know for sure what things will look like. Link includes many different languages.
