        For me there are so many fun activities listed but, today I will be writing about two of them. My favorite activity listed there was Indoor Basketball. I chose this because I am not the best at it but, if I do this I can improve on my basketball skills and I can get exercise. According to the text it states, ''An over the door basketball hoop and miniature ball is a great way for kids to get some exercise while stuck indoors.'' Another one of my favorites is reading books out loud, I chose this because I love reading books, and also it can help improve grammar. According to the text it states,''  Reading aloud is beneficial for older and younger children, as it helps them grapple with difficult issues, reduce stress, improves vocabulary, and comprehension and introduces them to literature they might otherwise ignore.'' In short, these are the two most activities I think might be the most fun.

            There are two ways of how postponing the 2020 Olympics are causing negative situations. One way is that it causes headaches and heartaches for people postponing the Olympics. According to the text it states,''It also figures to cause headaches and heartaches across the international sports community for federations and leagues that must now adapt their schedules, and for the 11,000 athletes who had spent years training to compete this summer.'' Another way is that almost everyone is getting intensifying pressure. Also in the text it states,'' Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe and IOC president Thomas Bach formally agreed to the decision Tuesday, amid intensifying pressure and public pleas for clarity from athletes and governing bodies.'' This proves that it also got public pleas from athletes and other governing bodies. In short, these are the two ways postponing the 2020 Olympics is causing negative situations.

There are many ways you can use to prevent infection.For example, you can wash your hands for 20 seconds each time you use the bathroom.  
 
***edited for fluidity- What are the best ways to prevent becoming infected by the COVID_19 virus?  There are many ways to prevent infection, though the top solution is washing your hands for 20 seconds each time you use the  bathroom.
 
 
 
According to the text it states, '' Students and staff alike should wash with soap and water for at least 20 seconds-about the length of the ''Alphabet Song''-before and after eating or after coughing and sneezing.'' So this shows that you can prevent yourself from getting COVID-19. Washing your hands is very important. You must do it for 20 seconds so that you can clean your hand and wrist.
 
*** Edited for fluidity- According to the text, '' Students and staff alike should wash with soap and water for at least 20 seconds-about the length of the ''Alphabet Song''-before and after eating or after coughing and sneezing.'' Therefore, washing your hands and wrist is very important in preventing the infection of COVID-19. 
 
 
 
-I switched these sections.
 
 
 
If there is no water or soap at the moment you get your hands dirty, you should use hand sanitizer or wipes to clean your hands.
 
***Edited for fluidity- A quick alternative to soap is hand-sanitizer with an alcohol-base, that according to the text "require students to continue using them for up to 2 minutes in order to truly disinfect their skin."
 
 
 
You should also stay at home and avoid contact with other people if you have nothing important to do outside. Either way avoid public gatherings
 
*** Edited for fluidity- For those considered medically vulnerable, it is recommended that they stay home and practice social distancing.
 
 
Another thing you should do is stay at home. Also in the text it states ''ages 10-19 have died based on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's guidance to doctors.'' This proves that staying home is important. I think this because those kids that died, I bet they got the virus by going outside to a gathering or not washing their hands.
 
*** edited for fluidity- The text states that "Worldwide, no one under 9 has died from COVID-19, and 0.2 percent of those ages 10-19 have died based on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's guidance to doctors."  Basically, for students considered medically vulnerable, practicing social distancing and staying home never hurts.
 
- read the text and make sure you understand the context of the quotes you use.
 
 
 
I think this because those kids that died, I bet they got the virus by going outside to a gathering or not washing their hands. If you really have to go outside for groceries, you must avoid contact with people passing by or at least be 6 feet away. These are the many ways you can use to prevent yourself from getting an infection.
 
*** edited for fluidity- However, in necessary situations, like grocery shopping, it is advised to stay at least 6 feet away from others. These are just some of the many ways you can prevent yourself from getting infected by COVID_19.
