Once you know the spelling words you want your child to work on, these pages are EASY PEASY.
Need Spelling Words? 8 Different NO PREP Spelling Pages are included:

1. Spiral Spelling Page with space for 10 words each

2. Spelling Photos - learners write their spelling word as the caption of the photo, then draw a picture to illustrate the word

3. Magic Spelling - learners use white crayon to "secretly" write each word and washable marker to color over the word

4. Spell it 3 Ways - two pages are included

5. Spelling Steps - writing the letters of the words in order

6. Copy, Cover, Spell - encourages kids to spell the word from memory

7. Spell & Play Cards - use for a variety of games or activities, suggestions are offered in the pack

8. Spell It Out Loud Game Board - have fun using different voices and activities to spell the word

Always be sure to SHOW your spellers how to use any pages you want them to use BEFORE you hand it over to them. This cuts down on their frustration AND on yours. 🙂

Enjoy teaching spelling!

Oibríochtaí Mata

Agus tú ag dul tríd an scoil tabharfaidh tú faoi deara go bhfaigheann mata níos deacra, ach beidh na bun oibríochtaí mata mar an gcéanna i gcónaí - suimiú, dealú, roinnt, agus méadú.

Seo an fhoclaíocht a bhaineann le gach oibríocht.

Labhair an Múinteoir John faoin tslí go n-oibríonn gach oibríocht le cabhair ó húlahúpanna agus liathróidí-

Suimiú

Agus muid ag suimiú, tá ár n-uimhir chun fás agus fás. Beidh sé i gcónaí níos mó má tá muid ag cur leis.

5 liathróid i fonsa 1 agus 3 liathróid i fonsa 2. Comhair iad agus tá 8 liathróid agat san iomlán.

5+3=8

Dealú

An difríocht idir dealú agus suimiú ná go bhfaighfidh an uimhir atá againn ag an tús níos lú! Le suimiú tá muid ag cur leis, le dealú tá muid ag tógáil uaidh.

12 liathróid i fonsa, tóg 7 liathróid amach agus tá 5 liathróíd fágtha.

12-7 = 5

Méadú

Cuir i gcás gurb é ' X' ná ' grúpaí de '

Ciallaíonn 6 X 3 ná 6 ghrúpa de 3.

6 liathróid + 6 liathróid + 6 liathróid = 18 liathróid

Roinnt

Le roinnt tosnaíonn muid le uimhir a bhéas muid ag ROINNT ina n-uimhreacha níos lú. Tá 18 liathróid agam agus tá mé ag iarraidh é a roinnt i 6 ghrúpa. Faigheann gach grúpa 3 liathróid.

18 roinnte ar by 6 = 3

Faigh do húlahúpanna (nó rud éigin níos lú) agus bain triail as sa bhaile!

Cuirigí grianghraif chugainn don méid atá déanta agaibh. Iarraigí ar bhur dtuismitheoirí cabhrú leat iad a sheoladh chugainn.

Cluichí Húlahúpanna

Nuair atá tú críochnaithe le do chuid mata seo úsáid eile gur féidir a bhaint as na húlahúpanna, seachas húlahúpáil!

Caitheamh fáinne - Caith an húlahúp thar targaid m.sh. buidéal uisce, pota plandaí folamh, bosca bruscair, aon rud! Nó d'fhéadfá duine a úsáid don targaid, más féidir leat aon duine a fháil atá toilteanach. NÓ úsáid an húlahúp mar an targaid agus caith málaí pónairí nó liathróidí isteach ann ag seasamh píosa siar uaidh.

Scipeáil - Aclaíocht iontach atá sa scipeáil agus muna bhfuil tú ró-ard agus níl an fonsa ró-bheag d'fhéadfá triail a bhaint as bheith ag scipeáil leis.

Snáithigh an Húla - Tá roinnt daoine ag teastáil uait don ceann seo. Abair le gach duine i do theach seasamh i gciorcal i ngreim láimhe ar a chéile. Tosnáionn an húp ar lámh dhuine amháin. Féach an féidir libh an húla a bhogadh timpeall an chiorcail uilig ag lúbarnaíl bhur gcorp agus ag seasamh isteach agus amach as an húp agus ansin á chur thar do chorp, do lámha agus do cheann.

Mósáic Mata

Oibríochtaí Measctha

Réitigh na ceisteanna mata chun an pictiúr atá i bhfolach a nochtadh.
Tá dath speisialta ag gach freagra. 12 = buí 4 = oráiste 15 = dubh 10 = gorm Special thanks to Twinkl.ie who provided the maths operations vocabulary images and Maths Mosaic.
Cuirigí grianghraif chugainn don méid atá déanta agaibh. Iarraigí ar bhur dtuismitheoirí cabhrú leat iad a sheoladh chugainn.

Fiction Express | Improving reading skills

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
1 Read the chapter

At any time, readers can choose from one of three books being published live at reading ages 6+, 8+ and 10+ which can be read online, offline or on paper. Our online reader offers added accessibility for dyslexic readers in different font and background colour combinations.

In addition, the Fiction Express Gold Reader level gives access to more than 80 books previously published on the platform where readers can compare their vote against the option that won when the book was initially written.

2 Vote on the plot

Be part of the story and decide what happens next through an online voting system. The voting deadline gives readers an impetus to complete the chapter before midday every Tuesday when the author starts writing the winning option. The only way for them to find out if their vote won is to read the next chapter.

3 Answer the quiz

Each Fiction Express chapter is linked to an online comprehension quiz. Immediate results are given to students and shown on the teacher's dashboard. The multiple choice questions can be stored as evidence to see how their scores improve, and teachers can easily identify who is struggling with comprehension before discussing the chapter in class.

4 Talk to the author

Students and teachers interact with the authors through the book forum of every live book. They can share all their ideas and thoughts about the book or post questions. Authors get real-time feedback from their readers as they write the story.

5 Enjoy the activities

Teachers are supported with an annual publishing plan and additional activities for every chapter to ensure the story's learning potential is exploited to the full.

Progress is evidenced in the teacher dashboard showing individual student usage in terms of reading, voting and the outcome comprehension questions. Fiction Express allows teachers to track student attainment over the year.

Improve your skills

Fiction Express is designed to improve children's attitudes towards reading for pleasure. Progress is made evident through the teacher dashboard showing individual student's reading, voting and comprehension question results. Fiction Express allows teachers to track student attainment over the year.

Roald Dahl was a British novelist, short story writer, and screenwriter.

Born in north Cardiff, Wales, to Norwegian parents, Dahl served in the Royal Air Force during the Second World War, in which he became a flying ace and intelligence agent. He rose to prominence in the 1940s with works for both children and adults, and became one of the world's bestselling authors. His short stories are known for their unexpected endings, and his children's books for their unsentimental, often very dark humour. ( Source.)

ID birds by sound. Help science & conservation.

How can computers learn to recognize birds from sounds? The K. Lisa Yang Center for Conservation Bioacoustics at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the Chair of Media Informatics at Chemnitz University of Technology are trying to find an answer to this question. Our research is mainly focused on the detection and classification of avian sounds using machine learning - we want to assist experts and citizen scientist in their work of monitoring and protecting our birds. BirdNET is a research platform that aims at recognizing birds by sound at scale. We support various hardware and operating systems such as Arduino microcontrollers, the Raspberry Pi, smartphones, web browsers, workstation PCs, and even cloud services. BirdNET is a citizen science platform as well as an analysis software for extremely large collections of audio. BirdNET aims to provide innovative tools for conservationists, biologists, and birders alike.

This page features some of our public demonstrations, including a live stream demo, a demo for the analysis of audio recordings, an Android and iOS app, and its visualization of submissions. All demos are based on an artificial neural network we call BirdNET. We are constantly improving the features and performance of our demos - please make sure to check back with us regularly.
BirdNET can currently identify around 3,000 of the world's most common species. We will add more species in the near future.
Want to use BirdNET to analyze a large data collection? Go to our GitHub repository to download BirdNET.

Have any questions? Please let us know (we speak English and German): ccb-birdnet@cornell.edu

Have you ever heard a bird sound you couldn't ID? Learn how to use our BirdNET smartphone app to identify your mystery birds on a trip through Sapsucker Woods!

Learn how to identify birds by sound with the Cornell Lab of Ornithology's free BirdNET mobile app and website. Advances in machine learning are making it easier to identify birds by their sounds. Q&A with BirdNET developer Stefan Kahl.

The live stream demo processes a live audio stream from a microphone outside the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, located in the Sapsucker Woods sanctuary in Ithaca, New York. This demo features an artificial neural network trained on the 180 most common species of the Sapsucker Woods area. Our system splits the audio stream into segments, converts those segments into spectrograms (visual representations of the audio signal) and passes the spectrograms through a convolutional neural network, all in near-real-time. The web page accumulates the species probabilities of the last five seconds into one prediction. If the probability for one species reaches 15% or higher, you can see a marker indicating an estimated position of the corresponding sound in the scrolling spectrogram of the live stream. This demo is intended for large screens.

Follow this link to view the demo.

Reliable identification of bird species in recorded audio files would be a transformative tool for researchers, conservation biologists, and birders. This demo provides a web interface for the upload and analysis of audio recordings. Based on an artificial neural network featuring almost 1,000 of the most common species of North America and Europe, this demo shows the most probable species for every second of the recording. Please note: We need to transfer the audio recordings to our servers in order to process the files. This demo is intended for large screens.

Note: If you encounter any instabilities or have any question regarding the functionality, please let us know. We will add new features in the near future, you will receive all updates automatically.

Donate

BirdNET is a research project that relies on external funding. We want to develop new features, add more species, expand our services, and most importantly, provide a great experience for birders and those who want to be one.
With your donation you can help us to achieve these goals.
Every amount is valuable! It helps us cover server costs and keep our research going.

No sunlight is able to reach this deep.

Many deep-sea creatures cope by creating light themselves - also known as bioluminescence.

Narwhals dive to this depth up to 15 times a day in search for food.

The Japanese Spider Crab is the largest known crab with a maximum leg span of 3.8m.

Coelacanths were thought to be extinct until found alive in 1938.

Leatherback Sea Turtles are the oldest sea turtle species.

Giant Oarfish can grow up to 11m long.

Sixgill Sharks spend the day in deep waters and the night in shallow waters. They can be found all over the world.

Telescope Octopus are almost completely transparent and have unique protruding eyes.

Barreleye Fish have a transparent head that allows their eyes to collect more light.

Black Swallowers can swallow entire fish whole - even those vastly larger than themselves!

Vampire Squids eat marine snow - organic material that falls from shallower waters.

Headless Chicken Fish are sea cucumbers with wing-like fins that allow them to swim.

Colossal Squid are the largest known squid species. They can reach a length of 10 meters and weigh up to 700 kg.

The Orange Roughy can live up to 200 years. Deep sea life often have elongated life spans.

Meals are rare in the deep sea. Deep sea creatures have adapted to this - one Giant Isopod in captivity went five years without eating.

Many deep sea species use the color red as camouflage since it's the first color to leave the spectrum as you dive deeper.

Goblin Sharks are known as "living fossils" because they're the only living species of a lineage that has existed for 125 million years.

Is it a squid, or a worm? It's a worm.

Sea Angels are majestic sea slugs that use wings to propel themselves.

The Scaly-Foot Snail gets its name from the iron plates on its foot and the iron shell it makes out of Iron Sulphide.

Anglerfish have a large bioluminescent lure used to attract prey in the darkness.

Giant Tube Worms get their nutrients from hydrothermal vents.

Hydrothermal vents are formed from seawater passing through extremely hot volcanic rocks. They release heavy metals that are toxic to most animals.

But even in those extreme conditions specialized life finds a way to survive.

Yeti Crabs live on hydrothermal vents.

This is the average depth of the ocean.

But in some places it goes deeper.

Cuvier's Beaked Whales are the deepest diving mammals.

On April 14th, 1912 the Titanic sank to its final resting place at a depth of 3,800 meters.

This is the deepest point of the Manila Trench in the South China Sea.

Patagonian Toothfish have antifreeze proteins in its tissues to prevent freezing in sub zero temperatures.

Megamouth sharks are one of the largest growing shark species with some reaching 7 meters long.

The temperature here is near freezing and very few animals can survive the extreme pressure.

This shark takes cookie-shaped chunks out of its prey.

You have scrolled the height of Mount Everest.

Comb Jellies have been around for 500 million years. Despite looking like jellyfish, they are not closely related.

This is the lowest point of the Puerto Rico Trench.

This is the deepest point of the Java Trench in the Indian Ocean.

The USS Johnston sank in WWII and is the deepest shipwreck ever found.

More people have been to the Moon than the Hadal Zone.

Most of the Hadal Zone takes place in deep sea trenches.

Deep sea trenches form by a process called "subduction" where the Earth's tectonic plates meet and push together.

The deep sea can be a lonely place.

Life here is sparse - the extreme conditions make survival difficult.

But still not impossible.

So little is known about life in these deep environments. Almost every expedition uncovers something new.

Many probes and submarines have been lost trying to reach the deepest parts of the ocean.

On January 23rd, 1960, about 9 years before the moon landing, humans went where they never had before.

Two men, Jacques Piccard and Don Walsh, onboard the submarine Trieste slowly descended into the Mariana Trench.

Their goal was to reach The Challenger Deep - the deepest point in the ocean.

The submarine used a re-breather system that would later be used in spacecraft. There was barely enough space inside the pressure sphere for both of them.

The immense pressure of the deep sea means any mistake would mean certain death.

During the descent, one of the window panes cracked and shook the entire vessel.

Nevertheless, they continued.

Even at these unfathomable depths, Jacques and Don could still see life out the window. Life can survive unimaginable environments.

After 4 hours and 47 minutes of anxiety and claustrophobia...

They succeeded and became the first humans to reach the deepest point in the ocean.

Fun Drama Games and Activities

These fun drama games and activity ideas are sure to bring hours of fun and laughter to the drama team or department. These games can be used as warm-ups, team building games, or just activities to have fun.

What are drama games anyway

Before you, as most likely a teacher reading these lines and thinking that you have no idea how to make your students play drama games, you're a match teacher! Let us tell you that you don't need to be a drama teacher to get your kids to move and enjoy.

Anyone can play these games and make the most of them. While usually played in a theatre, you can certainly use these games to evolve kids and get their unique skills shine.

If you wonder why games are important for kids, here are just a few of the benefits that drama games, yes drama, can help your students:

Builds confidence

Let's them a chance to show off their voice

Coordination

Concentration

Focus

Team work

Thinking on their feet and many more.

It's obvious, having creative games in the classroom is essential to get your students engage and learn.

General drama games and theatre games for kids

1. RIBBON OF SOUND

Sit in a circle. One person starts a sound. The next person picks it up and it travels around the circle so it becomes a ribbon of sound.

Each person should pick it up and pass it on as quickly as possible. Transform it into another sound-with the person next to the one who started the first sound.

2. COOPERATIVE STAND-UP

Choose partners. Sit back to back on the floor, legs straight out in front. Interlock arms. Try to stand up together as a unit by pushing against each others' backs.

3. LED BY THE NOSE: DRAMA GAME

Children imagine that strings are attached to various parts of their bodies.
They move about the room led by that part. Example: right thumb, nose, knees. Eyelashes etc.

4. STRIKE A POSE

1. Form a circle. Each person chooses one other person in the circle to secretly watch.
2. Everyone closes their eyes and strikes a pose.
3. On "GO" - everyone opens their eyes and begins to copy the person they chose to watch. (In posture, pose, stance, etc.)
Watch as the whole team morphs into the same pose!

5. BEAN BAG 'VOICE PROJECTION'

This exercise demonstrate to children how important it is to project their voices.

Place three bean bags in front of a row of children. One about 10 feet away from them - the second about 20 feet away, the third about 35-40 feet away (this can obviously be changed to suit the physical environment of the class).

1. Ask each child to look directly at the first bean bag, say their name and the name of their favorite animal.

2. Instruct them to say the exact same things to the second bean bag.

3. Would they speak with the same volume? Of course not - the "person" is further away.

4. When asked to address the third bean bag, they obviously should be projecting their voices as loud as they can.

5. After the entire group has addressed the bean bags, let them know they were really acting in a play just then - reaching the first three rows, the middle rows, and the back rows of the theater

6. HOLD A FASHION SHOW! THREE DIFFERENT IDEAS...
Good for Day Camp, in stages for an event ...and those full days of programming
Props: spotlights; a backdrop; if possible, a raised platform/ stage or catwalk; music and sound system...

#1 IDEA
First session: Putting on a fashion show can be fun for all players, especially if everyone gets to choose the role they will play.

In the planning stages, have participants decide on a theme for the show (such as fall fashions or holiday outfits); plan music and which roles children will play.

Both male and female models would be nice; you'll also need designers, emcees, a journalist or two, and photographer.

Help the players plan the set up; where youth will enter and exit-as well as where the audience will sit.

Make a list of special clothing to wear during the show and any other props you may need. If you have the "#3-WACKY" version below-you'll also have to make the outfits ...

Second session: Give members time to set up the show and get organized. Get the audience seated a let the show begin!

IDEA #2: Rehearse a show in which EVERYTHING GOES WRONG! (On purpose) It's fun but not easy to do. Example: The emcee trips over the microphone cord, or models wear things that don't fit-and don't go together. Think of all the silliness you can!

IDEA #3: One activity that I facilitated while managing a summer camp was to have a "WACKY HAIR-DO AND FASHION SHOW". The staff and kids "in fantasy fashion" back-combed, jelled and styled each others hair while others designed, drew, cut-out and taped outfits using ROLL-PAPER.

They also used paints/ markers, tape and accessories! Of course, there was also the fantasy make-up. It was great fun!!! (Barb Shelby)

7. READ AN EASY STORY THAT CAN BE DRAMATIZED.

Choose children to participate and have them recreate the story. They can make up the lines or you can reread or tell it as they act it out.
A variation is to divide the students into small groups.

Have each group pick a story and provide time for them to read it, choose parts and practice acting it out. Then have each group perform their story for the rest of the class and/or for children in younger grades.

8. CHANGING BODY GAME
You may not at first see this as a drama game-but it is! (Pretending you are something/someone else using art!)

Take a picture of each child and glue it to a piece of paper.

Have children to go through magazines, newspapers, etc...Have them cut out pictures of animals, people, and characters.

They then cut off the heads of all of these pictures; they can place them over their picture to see what they would look like in someone else's body!

Example: Cut the head off of Bozo the clown and place the rest of the body under the head of your picture - and you can see what it looks like!

9. 'SENSORY' DRAMA PLAY ACTIVITIES

RELAXATION-STIMULATION
Ask children to relax and explore their five senses by PRETENDING to:

* A sour lemon
* Their favorite candy
* Spinach

HEAR...
* A gentle wind
* Underwater sounds
* A whistle

* A car coming far away and towards you
* A giant
* An ant
* A big black spider

10. MYSTERY BAG
Blindfold children and have them use their senses to identify objects.

TOUCH: feather, balloon, shell, sandpaper, fur, money.

SMELL: coffee, perfume, onion.

TASTE: raisins, cornflakes, coconut, crackers, marshmallows, chocolate

11. IMAGING TASTE (Older Youth)

This activity is about making other people's mouths water.

Have each player in turn describe something to eat; encourage members to use as much detail a possible and wildly exaggerate the smells, tastes and textures of the food.

Next, have the group talk about the actual eating of the food. Example:Talk about how ice-cream melts on your tongue or how peanut butter sticks to the roof of your mouth before swallowing it.

Variation: Describe a single aspect of food, for example, the juice of a peach at its peak of ripeness.

12. I CAN'T STAND_____! (Older Youth)

Have each player in turn describe a food that they cannot stand to eat. Encourage as much detail as possible so that the other group members are disgusted by the food, too.

13. BOTTLE OF WHAT (Young children)

Before the meeting, gather several empty plastic bottles with caps. Fill each bottle with a different material-such as dried peas, pebbles, marbles, sand, and birdseed.

Put the caps back on and cover the bottles with construction paper so the materials inside are hidden. Ask group members to listen to the sound each bottle makes and guess what is inside it.

Drama Games Activities
* Practice diction saying Tongue Twisters
* A simple phrase - Said 3 or 4 different ways. Example: "Open the door." Or "Hello" and a name.

* Carry on a "conversation" with another person using only that person's name. See the range of meaning you can communicate through voice inflection, facial expression and gestures.
* Mirroring.
* Trust Walk/Blindfold Walk.

* In a pair or group- shake hands quickly, slowly, gently, angrily, sadly, tenderly.
* Build a drama Theme around a book.
* Make your hands take on different characteristics: nervous, greedy, flabby, magic, fierce, gentle, strong, frightened, etc.

* Masks: Make or purchase; wear in a skit, scene or play.

* Puppets/Puppet show: Make or purchase puppets; write, produce, practice, perform.

* Perform a one act scene from: Section of chapter book, a well known story book, poems such as those by Shel Silverstein and Bruce Lansky; other club members become audience for rehearsals.

* Pantomime Games (Individual, pairs or a group)

* Pantomime/ Acting out a song - such as the Song Sisters' Alligator song.

* Group Improv: Give a simple idea to act out...Setting up a camp in the woods.

* Form two lines facing each other. The first two people in each line begin a conversation. At any point, the person next to a speaker- can tap him/her on the shoulder.

speaker then goes to the end of the line and the conversation continues between the new speakers at exactly the point it was interrupted.

* Choose a person to leave the room. The rest of the group stands in a circle. Choose a leader who begins and changes all movements. Everyone else should be aware of the leader but not look directly at him.

Change movements when the leader does. Once everyone has the idea, call back the person who left the room. Ask him to stand in the middle and try to figure out who the leader is.

* Sit in a circle. Choose a music conductor. Everyone create a sound and rhythm using hands, feet, voice, etc. in time to the conductor's leading.

* Without the participant's knowledge, stage a sudden "happening". Then have everyone describe exactly what happened in writing, giving as many details as possible. Compare the descriptions. Are they the same? Why not?

* PLAY ARTISTS AND BLOBS

Have children work in 2 or 3 person teams. Ask each team to pick an 'A' and a 'B'. 'A's' are the artists...and 'B's' are the blobs. The artist (s) forms his/her partner into some kind of statue.

The blob relaxes as much as possible until the statue is formed, then tries to hold that pose. (TIP: PLAY MUSIC while artists are forming blobs.) When art works are complete have artists walk about and admire each other's creations!

* The Pretzel: Form a long chain holding hands. Designate a leader who goes in, around and under, taking everyone with him until a human knot is formed. Then, the leader retraces his steps and unties the knot.

* Object Creation: One person begins a mechanical movement. Another person attaches himself to it adding movement. Continue to add youth to the machine, using sounds and moving through space.

* One person goes to the front and begins a non-verbal activity. Others enter once they figure out what the first person is doing. Form a scene without words and let it play out.

* Use your bodies to build a house. Some people become the furniture, telephones, and tables. Others live in the house. Then huff and puff and blow the house down.

* Two partners share one pillow. Experiment with different ways of giving and taking the pillow. Make it something very valuable and precious. Make it something vile and distasteful. Make it very heavy. Make it light. Make it prickly. Pretend that it's a ticking bomb, an injured cat, a hot plate.

* Pair up. Look carefully at each other. One person closes his eyes while the other changes something, such as untying a shoelace. His partner opens his eyes and tries to identify the change. Reverse.

* Pretend to fight in slow motion. Imagine that you are under water or in space. Imagine that you are wearing heavy armor. Use an imaginary long sword.

After we learned about the drama games for kids in the list above, let's see a few good warm up activities to get things going.

Warm Ups Activities

We do warm ups before taking stage or just practicing because it helps us with verbal concentration and articulation muscles. Also, it's really fun to do tongue twisters, here's a few fun warm up ideas:

1. Unique New York

2. Three tree throws

3. Red leather, yellow leather

4. Say this shortly, say this sweetly, say this sharply, say this softly. ( Try and say this 16 times very quickly )

5. Rubber baby buggy bumpers

Here are the rules: Stand as a group, and try and repeat each of these tongue twisters 5 times without making a mistake.

After you're done, see who wishes to take the floor and do the same in front of everyone else.

Improv activities

Improv activities help drama students improve their random thinking and reaction time and thinking on their feet.

It's a great skill to master as a drama actor and if your kid loves actings, here are a few great games to improve in improv:
Drama Menu Links

1. If you are in a group, divide to groups of 3 kids each, and stand on one side of the room/stage. The teacher or leader will throw in a story. Kids need to improv on the stop a storyline that gets from bad to worse. Every time a group comes up with an idea, they can move one step forward. The winner group is the one who gets to the other side of the room or stage. ( The story must make sense )

2. The obstacle game - In this game you tell the kids an item, for example " a door " and they need to throw ideas that are possible obstacles to the item. It has to make sense. Example, a dog, a chair, a spilled water stain on the floor etc.

Check out the facts about Coronavirus in the link below.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Coronavirus (or, as doctors and scientists call it, COVID-19) has been part of everyone's life since mid-March 2020, when most schools, businesses, and communities quickly changed how they operated to prevent the spread of the virus. Because the disease infected a large number of people all over the world, experts call this a pandemic.

For over a year, many kids attended school at least partly from their houses; their parents might've worked from home, too. This was all to avoid catching the virus from other people outside the home.

Lots of people helped their neighbors throughout the pandemic. First responders, like healthcare workers, police officers, and firefighters, kept people healthy and safe; essential workers such as grocery store employees, delivery drivers, and postal workers worked in-person to make sure other folks had what they needed to live.

Nearly 190 million people in the world have been infected by COVID-19, and more than four million people have died. But the good news is that the number of people getting the virus in the United States is going way down, thanks to testing, vaccines, and other preventative measures, like wearing masks and social distancing.

Here are answers to some questions you might still have about coronavirus.

So ... what is COVID-19? And what's a "coronavirus?"

The term "coronavirus" actually refers to a family of viruses that causes many different types of diseases, including the common cold. COVID-19 is a "novel coronavirus," which means it's a new disease unfamiliar to scientists and doctors. Its name is actually a mash-up of three words: CO stands for "corona," which means "crown" in Latin, and the viruses are named for the crown-like spikes on their surface; VI stands for "virus"; and D is for "disease." The "19" comes from the year 2019, when the disease was first detected.

How did COVID-19 start?

Scientists don't know the exact origin of COVID -19, and they might never have all the answers. But they do know that some diseases start in animals before spreading to humans. These types of diseases are called zoonotic (pronounced zoh-uh-NAH-tik). Cows, bats, and camels are among the animals that have spread diseases to humans in the past. The COVID-19 disease is also zoonotic, with the first cases popping up in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. The affected humans were all connected to a nearby market that sold live animals.

How does someone catch COVID-19?

COVID-19 can be transmitted by little droplets from coughs or sneezes, which is why doctors say unvaccinated people should wear masks when they're indoors or close to others. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there's no evidence that a dog, cat, or any other pet can transmit COVID-19. But more studies are needed to understand how COVID-19 could affect different types of animals.

How can I protect myself?

Kids older than 12 can now get the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. For older kids who aren't vaccinated, as well as kids 11 and younger, research shows that taking small steps-like staying six feet (about two arm lengths) from others, wearing face masks that cover the mouth and nose, washing hands often, and seeing friends outside-can make a big difference in stopping the spread of the virus. (Vaccines for kids under 12 are expected to be available later in 2021.)

Learn how vaccines work and why they're so effective.

OK, but what happens if I do get it?

Most people-including kids- who catch COVID-19 get better, and their illness is usually mild. But if you do catch COVID-19, you might have a dry cough, a fever, and shortness of breath. But just like when you've had a cold, the best treatment is to stay in bed-and away from anyone who might catch it from you. (Like your grandparents! Older people are more at risk for catching and getting sick from COVID-19.) You might also not even know you have it, so keep washing your hands and wearing a mask, just in case. Masks work best when everyone wears one.

Researchers expect that as more people are vaccinated and become immune to COVID-19, the number of cases will continue to go down. Immunity to the virus means the body can fight it off and won't spread it to another person. When enough people are immune to COVID-19 so that the illness is no longer a serious threat, that's called herd immunity. Experts say that for herd immunity to work in a community, between 75 and 85 percent of people need to be vaccinated. Almost 60 percent of Americans are fully vaccinated, depending on where you live: Some places are higher, and others are lower.

The majority of new cases in the United States are in unvaccinated people. They can also transmit the coronavirus to others, which is why the CDC recommends they still wear masks indoors and at crowded outdoor events.

What about school?

The latest guidelines from the CDC say that students and teachers who are fully vaccinated-meaning it's been two weeks since their second COVID-19 shot-can be in class without masks. For students too young to get the vaccine, the recommendation is to keep doing what you've been doing in school: wear masks and social distance. Scientists say that keeping just three feet indoors in school is enough to keep kids safe.

This story has been updated with new information about vaccines for children.
