Sesame Street and CNN Teach "The ABCs of Back to School"!

Sesame Street and CNN are teaming up again for a new Town Hall special tackling the situations kids will encounter as they head back-to-school this year. Topics will include everything from staying healthy in classrooms to making the most of remote learning,

Sesame Street Muppets join school-aged children in a variety of learning environments, with Elmo going to preschool during the week, Big Bird in hybrid learning, and Rosita fully remote. The trio will be joined by Abby Cadabby and her brother Rudy, Super Grover, and other friends from Sesame Street, along with Sesame Workshop’s Vice President and Education Publisher for Sesame Learning Akimi Gibson.

The special will stream live without requiring a log-in on CNN.com’s homepage and across mobile devices via CNN’s apps for iOS and Android. It can also be viewed on CNNgo (at CNN.com/go on your desktop, smartphone, and iPad and via CNNgo apps for Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire, Chromecast, and Android TV) and will be available on demand to subscribers via cable/satellite systems, CNNgo platforms, and CNN mobile apps.

Funding for The ABCs of Back to School is provided in part by the Walton Family Foundation, a supporter of Sesame Workshop’s Caring for Each Other back-to-school resources.

The ABCs of Back to School, hosted by CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta and Erica Hill with Big Bird will air this Saturday, September 12 at 10 a.m. ET on CNN, CNN International and CNN en Español.
