Grammar
Back at / in / to school
I have just understood the differences between them. Please have a run through the examples belwo.
1. Back at school, I played a lot. (when I was a student)
2. Back in school, there used to be a large playground there. (the place when I was student)
3. Back to my school, I still can see my used-to-sat chair because they didn't throw it. (I am now visiting my used-to-attended school)
Are there anything wrong? Or do you have a better idea?
