During the Science class for my 4th graders chapter on AIR, we were discussing microbes and how they are carried in the air.
Obviously the discussion went straight to the Corona. We held up a large world map and I pointed out countries and rough numbers of sick. I asked what they could infer from it.
Typical Al Qamar kids - a zillion questions and a zillion comments.
"Its growing in Europe and North America"
"Its cold there"
"Not so much in Africa"
"Do the AC rooms make it spread?" - reference to growth in the Middle East.
"Can a virus go through the ocean?"
"How does a virus have babies?"
"What does it eat?"
"How does it start living?"
"How did it come from animals to human beings?"
