Most of the cases in children are from their neighborhood and not their school. As long as everyone inside the school building wears a mask (and preferably vaccinated) than there is almost no concern!]]> 2021-09-13 19:34:36 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737219971 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737221313 2021-09-13 19:35:14 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737221313 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737221888 it surprised me that schools aren't as big of a "covid hot spot" then i originally had thought it was. it talked about how they get it more from their communities then from school.]]> 2021-09-13 19:35:31 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737221888 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737224202 2021-09-13 19:36:42 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737224202 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737225231 I thought school would be the place where covid would spread faster since there is a lot of people here but it isn't.

I think that mask wearing is the number one thing a person can do to help subside the Covid virus. It's comforting to see some evidence also supporting the safety of in-person school. I, and hopefully many others, do no want to go back online. So, with this responsibility, I hope kids (and parents/guardians) are careful and wear their masks. ]]> 2021-09-13 19:40:40 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737232268 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737236376 one thing i read in the article was that its more likely that kids are getting covid from their community's which surprises me because it makes more sense (to me at least) that it would be transmitted through school but the evidence proves me wrong.]]> 2021-09-13 19:42:15 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737236376 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737237518 I thought opening schools up again would cause the virus to spread more but the article showed me something different and it surprised me actually.

Although I'm glad school is now in person; makes learning for me much better, I think this is a false statement. and for the obvious that schools are not "healthiest" for kids to be at during the new outbreak of the variant and even before the outbreak. saying this makes people feel relaxed and less worried which makes people think that its alright to not protect themselves or their family properly. ]]> 2021-09-13 19:46:56 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737246476 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737246708 The thing that i learned from this article is that children are getting evidence of the virus from there community more than school and other children. ]]> 2021-09-13 19:47:03 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737246708 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737248108 When I first heard they were opening up the schools again, I questioned whether they would change their mind before they even got the chance; after reading this article I understood that COVID-19 is more commonly spread in their own communities more than at school. This article brought me some peace and reassurance, which is important for a healthy learning enviorment.

A team went out to collect date about the spread of covid-19 in schools and after thorough research came to the conclusion that there was no evidence of covid-19 being spread from student to student in large amounts. I definitely was nervous that going back to school would cause a rise in students covid cases, so this article is a relief in a way. By wearing masks hopefully schools will continue to not be super spreaders and cases won't go up. ]]> 2021-09-13 20:04:18 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1737280694 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1738161875 As we returned to school I had a feeling that this wasn't the right thing to do because this would just cause an increment on the amount of Covid-19 cases. However, this article helped me be more aware of the current situation between covid-19 cases and the reopening of schools. Knowing that the virus spreads more outside of schools like in ours communities makes me feel a bit more secure while being in school for my education because I now know that the safety procedures in school help limit the spread of student to student contagions. ]]> 2021-09-14 03:27:20 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1738161875 1tpjones https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1741439069 What I took from this article was that there are more Covid-19 transmissions from the general community outside of school than the school itself. studies have shown that if school started wearing masks, and kept a classroom well ventilated then it would not have such a huge effect from Covid-19. According to the article. two tests were used on 2 schools. One school using virtual learning, and one school using in person. When the test concluded. When the results came back, the virtual school produced more Covid transmissions than the the in-person school. matter of fact, the in person school showed half the infections the online class had]]> 2021-09-15 03:09:08 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/ac2dpvcfvr3hzbu5/wish/1741439069
