From The Editor Hi Kids, Did you know it was World Book Day on 1st March? Reading is a great way to learn new and interesting things so once you’ve finished reading this fun-packed issue of Kidslife, grab yourself a book and learn something cool! In the meantime, do you know where in the world you would find Mount Rushmore, otherwise known as Presidents’ Mountain? This impressive landmark is instantly recognisable the world over and you can read all about it inside. You can also take a trip to Santiago, the capital city of Chile. If you’re an animal lover, don’t miss our special feature on Koalas. Did you know they are not actually bears? Our featured vegetable this month is the carrot. Do you think it’s true that they help you see in the dark? I bet Stephen Hawking would know. The British scientist sadly died recently and we pay tribute to his brilliant work in this month’s issue. Another brilliant mind was that of Percy Spencer. Can you guess what household item he invented, way back in 1967?

It’s Sunday in western Alaska but Monday in eastern Russia. It’s 7:00 p.m. in London, 2:00 p.m. in New York City, and 11:00 a.m. in Los Angeles. How can that be? Washington, D.C., is about 38° N and 77° W. Australia’s capital is Canberra. It is 35° S and 149° E. What does that mean? The answers to these questions have to do with imaginary lines that divide Earth into zones and regions. Those lines are how geographers tackle the complexity of our planet.
Latitude 6
Earth is basically a sphere turning on an axis, much the way a top spins. The North Pole is at one end of the axis. The South Pole is at the other end. Exactly in the middle of the poles is an imaginary line called the equator. The latitude of a place is its distance north or south of the equator. The equator itself is zero degrees latitude (0°).
Lines of latitude run parallel to the equator and are often referred to as parallels. That’s why the “23rd parallel” is at latitude 23°. March 2018
Longitude Lines of longitude run the length of Earth (think long). They’re also called meridians. They go from the North Pole to the South Pole and cross lines of latitude at right angles. Zero degrees (0°) longitude is known as the prime meridian. It runs through Greenwich, England.
7
Time A time zone is one of 24 regions of Earth where the same standard time is used. On this map, each time zone is a different color. Time zones and longitude are connected. As Earth spins, at every moment a line of longitude faces the Sun. At each spot along that line it is noon. After 24 hours, Earth will have done a complete rotation (360°). Then that same meridian will face the Sun again. Earth turns 15°—or 15 lines of longitude—per hour. In the U.S., lines of longitude are about 53 miles apart. At that distance, 15 meridians cover about 795 miles.

Days and Dates How can it be Sunday in Alaska and Monday in Russia? The answer has to do with two facts: Earth is round, and a new day must start somewhere. While the natural rotation of Earth creates time zones, the date line can be anywhere. For convenience, it is on the opposite side of the globe. That is, it’s 180° from the prime meridian. The date line passes mostly through open ocean but occasionally zigzags to adjust for national and cultural connections. If you cross the date line from east to west, you gain a day. If you cross from west to east, you lose a day. Same time, different day. That’s how it can be Sunday in Alaska and Monday in Russia.
James K. Polk ran for president in 1844. His campaign slogan was “Fifty-Four Forty or Fight!” It referred to the line of latitude he claimed for the United States in a dispute with Britain over dividing the Oregon Territory.

Scientist Stephen Hawking Dead At Age 76
12
When we think of scientific geniuses, we may think of Albert Einstein or Marie Curie. Stephen Hawking was right up there with the most brilliant minds of any generation. He passed away on March 14th, at the age of 76. It would take a book — or a movie (there are both) — to even scratch the surface of his accomplishments, his tremendous sense of humour, his influence on millions of people and the vast depths of his knowledge. He helped the world better understand black holes and string theory. Black holes are extremely dense regions in space. We can’t see them. In fact, we can understand what they are only by how they affect things around them. Hawking furthered our understanding of them and many other areas of physics. His groundbreaking work changed science forever. Hawking was a professor at Cambridge University in England. One of the most famous books of many written by Hawking is A Brief History of Time, in which he explains much about his scientific theories and explores the meaning of the universe. He also wrote a children’s book (with his daughter, Lucy, for kids age 9 and up) called George’s Secret Key to the Universe. It has four sequels: George’s Cosmic Treasure Hunt (2009), George and the Big Bang (2011), George and the Unbreakable Code (2014) and George and the Blue Moon (2016). Hawking was in a wheelchair because he had a disease called ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.) It affected his ability to walk and talk. He was diagnosed with it in university and he was only given two more years to live, but he lived much longer. For much of his life, Hawking used a speech synthesizer which “spoke” phrases he typed. Hawking’s “voice” became instantly recognizable. Hawking was not only brilliant, but he had a wonderful sense of humour, even playing featured characters on TV shows like the Simpsons and The Big Bang Theory.
Students March “For Our Lives”
Young people in more than 800 cities in the United States and around the world took to the streets recently to protest. It was called “The March for our Lives.” The students were protesting for “gun control” which in this case means they want stricter gun laws in the United States. Canada’s gun laws are different than in the United States, in terms of when and how someone can buy a gun. Canada has “fairly strict gun laws,” according to a recent article in The Walrus magazine. Canada has “detailed licensing procedures, age restrictions, and background checks required before you can purchase a firearm.” The students want politicians in the United States to make it harder for people to buy guns. They say that will make everyone safer. It’s hard to know how many people protested, but it was in the hundreds of thousands. One of the biggest protests was in Washington, D. C., in the United States—where the White House is located. CBC News called it “one of the biggest youth protests since the Vietnam War era.” Young people are also using the slogan “Enough” to communicate that they are fed up. A number of students have become spokespeople for the movement to end gun violence. Those people, including Emma González, David Hogg and Cameron Kasky, made speeches at the protest. March 2018
How Much Food Do You Waste? If all the food that’s thrown away in three American cities could be saved, it would provide 68 million meals for people who don’t have enough to eat, according to a recent study. A team of researchers in the United States spent a week looking through the garbage bags of 1,151 people living in Denver, New York and Nashville. The researchers wanted to know what kind of food was being thrown away, how much there was, and why it was being tossed. By asking these questions, the researchers hoped to find ways to reduce the amount of food we throw away, and to give some of that food to people who need it. The researchers found that, in the cities they surveyed, more than a kilogram of edible food per person is wasted each week. (Edible food is food you can eat. It doesn’t include things like apple cores, egg shells, or bones from meat.) Fruits and vegetables were the most common edible foods found in the trash, followed by food leftover from meals. Eggs, bread and milk were also commonly thrown out. The people taking part in the survey gave several reasons for throwing edible food away. Most said the food was spoiled. Some said they weren’t interested in eating leftovers. A few said the food had passed the “Best Before” date printed on the label. Some people composted their food garbage. (Composting is a way of turning rotting food into fertilizer for soil.) But more than half of the food waste ended up in the regular trash and was sent to a dump or landfill. When food rots in landfills, it produces methane, a gas that contributes to global warming. While using food waste to make compost is better than throwing it in a landfill, the survey found that people who composted their waste didn’t feel as bad about throwing food away. They actually threw away more food than families who didn’t compost. When food is wasted – by families, restaurants or grocery stores – we are also wasting all of the resources that go into producing that food. That means we are wasting water, land, energy and labour, as well as the fuel needed to transport food. In Canada, about $31 billion worth of food ends up in landfills or composters each year. That works out to about $31 per week, or $1,600 per year, that each household spends on food that is wasted.
About 45% of Canadians compost their food waste, but not all communities have composting programs, so the rest ends up in landfills. A lot of food is wasted before it even reaches the grocery store. Some food spoils or is damaged while it is being transported from the farm to the stores. Fruits and vegetables that have bruises or that don’t look attractive enough don’t even get put onto the shelves because most people won’t buy them. Grocery stores, restaurants and institutions like hospitals also waste a large amount of food. The researchers suggest that grocery stores should donate any food that is still okay to eat to food banks or homeless shelters, instead of throwing it away. Prepared meals from hospitals or restaurants could also be donated to shelters. Some people have come up with creative ways to reduce food waste: Ubifood is an app that lets bakeries, cafes and restaurants in Montreal upload photos of food they have left at the end of the day. Customers can buy the food online at reduced prices, then pick it up at the restaurant. Loblaws grocery chain sells small or oddly shaped fruits and vegetables under the brand name “Naturally Imperfect.” The items taste just as good as more attractive produce, but cost about 30% less. Food rescue organizations help to redistribute surplus food to people who need it. For example, Second Harvest collects discarded food all along the delivery chain, from farmers to retailers, and passes it on to food banks, shelters, children’s breakfast programs and others. Rock and Wrap It Up! collects leftover prepared food from places like sports arenas, concert halls and movie studios, and gives it to local programs that feed people in need.
China’s Xi Jinping Could Become President For Life Under the current laws in China, the country’s president, Xi Jinping, would have to give up his job in 2023. Now, he is trying to change that law. That is causing some people to be concerned that he may try to become a “dictator” and retain power for many years. The issue is about China’s “term limits” for its president. In other words, one person can only be president for a certain length of time–in this case, 10 years (two terms of five years each). Xi Jinping became president in 2012. His term would end in 2023, although he could choose to continue on in another high-level job in the government. But he appears to have decided that he would rather remove term limits altogether, which means that he could choose to be president for the rest of his life. Term limits were introduced in China in 1982, about five years after the country’s famous and long-serving Chairman Mao passed away. In the United States, a president may serve for a maximum of 8 years. US president Donald Trump is reported to have praised Jinping’s decision to remove term limits on his power, jokingly saying, “I think it’s great. Maybe we’ll give that a shot some day,” according to CNN, a news service in the United States. In Canada and in the UK, a person can be prime minister indefinitely (meaning, there are no term limits on the job). That’s because they “serve at the pleasure of Her Majesty the Queen,” meaning they hold the job as long as the Queen says they can (officially, anyway). The longest serving prime minister of Canada was William Lyon Mackenzie King, who was prime minister for more than 21 years (although, not all in a row). Later this month, China’s “National People’s Congress” will vote on whether or not to drop term limits, and they could decide not to. However, it is normal for March 2018
the People’s Congress to agree with what the president wants so it is likely they would vote for the new law. In the meantime, many people are watching China to find out what will happen next.

World Book Day March 1st
March 1st is World Book Day. The day was established 18 years ago and was designated by UNESCO, as a worldwide celebration of reading books. Over 100 countries participate World Book Day as a way to share the joy of reading books.
Personally, I love to read. Books are a way to visit the Taj Mahal, the pyramids, climb Mt. Everest, travel back through history or rocket into the future, all without leaving home. 14
To, me, the public library was an awesome idea. Just think, before a library, you had to purchase anything you wanted to read,limiting assess to those that couldn’t afford to make such a purchase. I was saddened to read that according to a 2014 study, posted at Buzzfeed.com, one out of five kids asked said that if a friend found them reading a book, they’d be embarrassed! The study also found that of those kids responding, 54% said they prefer to watch television than read a book. How can we turn such poll numbers around?
March 2018
I grew up on Nancy Drew books, I eagerly awaited the next published adventure of Nancy and her friends. I read biographies on women including Amelia Earhart, Clara Barton, Florence Nightingale, Harriet Tubman, Susan B. Anthony and more. Kids need to see the wonderful world of books. Perhaps, the next time you need to get gifts for your child, niece or nephew, include a book as one of you gifts. Each child should have a library card. As educators, ask your students if they own a library card and if not, try and encourage them to get one! Whether you read traditional books that you can hold in your hand or ebooks, it doesn’t matter, kids(and adults) need to grab a book and read!

Santiago is the capital city of Chile. Most of the city lies between 500 m (1,640 ft) and 650 m (2,133 ft) above sea level. The city is shaped by several stand-alone hills and the Mapocho River. The Andes Mountains can be seen from most parts of the city.
20
It takes just over 18 hours to fly from Kuwait to Santiago.
You will land at Comodoro Arturo Merino BenĂtez International Airport, the largest and busiest airport in Chile.
The public transport system in Santiago is fairly straight forward. Choose from taxis, buses, trains or the metro. Alternatively, you could rent a car or take a trip on the open-top tour bus.
Santiago has warm, dry summers (November to March) with temperatures reaching 35 degrees C. Winters (June to August) are cool and humid. March 2018
It’s worth remembering that Santiago's air is the most polluted air in Chile. The Andes Mountains contribute to the considerable smog problem. In addition, the Mapocho River is contaminated by household, agricultural, industrial and copper-mining waste.
The Metropolitan Cathedral of Santiago is situated in the main square. Construction of this neoclassical cathedral began in 1748 and ended in 1800.
The Plaza de Armas is the main square of Santiago and the centerpiece of the city. It’s a perfect meeting place for residents and tourists alike.
One of the most iconic sights in Santiago is the statue of the Immaculate Conception, located at the summit of San Cristóbal Hill. It is 863 metres above sea level and one of the principal places for worship in the city.
21
The national flag of Chile is a red, white and blue banner with a white star. The blue represents the sky, the white represents the snow of the Andes Mountains and the red symbolizes the blood that was spilled fighting for freedom.

For shopping, head to the Costanera Center complex. Here, you will find Gran Torre Santiago, a 64-story tall skyscraper that’s the tallest in Latin America. The observation decks on floors 61 and 62 offers 360 degree views of the city. You will also find a six floor shopping mall.
Although it won’t appeal to everyone, some might like to visit Cementerio General de Santiago, the largest cemetery in Latin American. This cemetery is the final resting place for at least 172 of the most influential people in Chile.
You should also pay a visit to the former National Congress Building. This impressive building features Corinthian columns on the north and east facades and is the former home of the Chilean Congress.
The Biblioteca Nacional de Chile is the national library of Chile and home to an extensive and valuable collection of books and manuscripts.
22
The Chilean National Museum of Natural History was founded in 1830. The oldest mummies in the world can be found here and a 17-metre skeleton of a blue whale is on display in the Central Hall.

Koalas live in eastern Australia.
Although often called a koala ‘bear’, this cute little creature is not a bear at all! It is actually a marsupial mammal. In other words, it has a pouch.
24
A mother koala will carry her baby (called a cub or joey) in her pouch for about six months.
When it emerges, the baby will ride on its mother’s back or cling to her belly until it’s about a year old.
Koalas breed once a year between December and March and give birth to only one baby at a time. The gestation period is 35 days. A female will give birth to around 6 cubs in her lifetime. Koalas love eucalyptus trees! They doze in these trees during the day, sleeping up to 18 hours at a time!
March 2018
In Aboriginal language, the word Koala is thought to mean ‘does not drink’.
They feed on eucalyptus leaves – about two and a half pounds each day! The leaves provide them with moisture as koalas do not drink much water. They can store leaves in the pouches in their cheeks.
Koalas are unharmed by the poison in eucalyptus leaves. However, they eat so many of them they smell like them – a bit like a cough sweet!
Their odour is thought to discourage fleas and other pests from living in their fur.
They have very sharp teeth and claws – ideal for chewing leaves and clinging on branches.

26
They communicate using scratch and scent markings. Vocally, they screech, bellow and murmur.
Their fur is grey/brown with a white underbelly. They have large noses which are coloured pink or black.
An adult koala will grow up to 25-30 inches high. They live for approximately 10-15 years.
It is illegal to keep a koala as a pet.
March 2018
Their main natural predators include dingoes, eagles, large owls and goannas. However, they are also at risk from motor vehicle accidents and domestic dogs.
27
Loss of habitat is also a concern for koalas. Bush fires can destroy their home territory along with land clearing/ development.

Percy Spencer Inventor of the Microwave Oven Percy Lebaron Spencer was born in Howland, Maine, USA in 1894. His father was a pastor and geographer. He had a sad childhood. His father died when Percy was very small and his mother abandoned him soon after. 28
He was brought up by his uncle and aunt who were very poor but his uncle died when he was seven years old and Percy suddenly became head of the family. As a child, Percy spent many hours exploring a log hauler truck that had broken down near to his house, trying to figure out how it worked. He left school at a young age as he needed to support himself and his aunt. Between the ages of 12 and 16 he worked at a spool mill.
Later, he heard about a paper factory that was going to be run on electricity. This was a new concept in the remote town where he lived, so he learned as much as he could about it and applied for a job of wiring the plant. He was selected for the job, despite the fact that he had no formal education or training. March 2018
At 18, he joined the U.S. Navy and learnt all he could about wireless and radio technology. He also read about chemistry, physics, trigonometry and calculus.
He became an expert in radar tube design and began working for a company called Raytheon as chief of the power tube division.
GREAT MINDS
His knowledge and expertise helped the company win a major contract from the U.S. government and, thanks to Percy, the power tube division expanded from 15 employees to more than 5000! 29
One day, he crossed an active radar set and noticed that the candy in his pocket had melted! He carried out further tests and experiments and successfully filed for a patent for his microwave oven in 1945. March 2018
In 1947, he produced the first commercially built microwave. It weighed around 750lbs and stood 6 feet tall! It was also very expensive (between $2000 and $3000) and was only used in restaurants, railways and ships. His invention was eventually named the ‘Radarange’. He continued to research and modify the design and developed the first microwave for home use in 1967. This one was small enough to fit on a kitchen counter top and cost only $495. In total, Percy held more than 300 patents. 30
He went on to become a senior member of the Board of Directors at Raytheon and was awarded membership of the Institute of Radio Engineers, Fellowship of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and an honorary Doctor of Science from the University of Massachusetts. Interestingly, he received no royalties for his invention from Raytheon. He was paid a one-time $2.00 gratuity - the same token payment the company made to all inventors on its payroll at that time for company patents! March 2018
Percy was married twice. He had three sons with this first wife, Louise (John, James and George). He married his second wife, Lillian Ottenheimer, on 18th November 1960.
He died on 8th September 1970, aged 77.
Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems has named a building after Percy Spencer in the Woburn, Massachusetts facility. An early Radarange model sits in the lobby, across from the dining room.

The word ‘carrot’ was first recorded in English in 1538 in a book of herbs.
The carrot is a member of the parsley family which also includes celery, parsnip, fennel, dill and coriander. 32
It is a root vegetable thought to have originated in Afghanistan.
China is the world’s largest producer of carrots, ahead of Russia and the United States.
The carrot is in the top 10 of the most economically important global vegetable crops.
When they were first cultivated, carrots were grown for their leaves and seeds rather than the carrot itself. March 2018
The plant can grow up to 1 metre tall and flowers between June and August with a bright white flower.
The part of the carrot that we eat is called the ‘taproot’.
Carrots are usually orange but there are also purple, red, white and yellow varieties! 33
Carrots can be eaten raw but can also be cooked. They can be mashed, boiled, grated, fried, steamed, pulped, stewed, baked, juiced and puréed! They are popular in stir-fries, salads and soups and are also used in baby and pet foods. March 2018
The natural sugars of carrots means they are also ideal for desserts. Portugal uses carrots in jam and they are popular in health drinks.
One cup of raw carrots contains about 52 calories.
34
Carrots can apparently help to prevent a stroke or heart attack as well as reducing high blood pressure.
QUESTIONS 1. Carrots are a member of the rose family – true or false? 2. How many calories are there in one cup of raw carrots? 3. What colour are the flowers of a carrot plant? 4.

The world’s longest carrot measured 6.245 meters (20 feet 5.9 inches) in 2016 in the UK.
It is believed the average person will consume 10,866 carrots in their lifetime. That’s a lot of carrots!
35
Eating too many carrots can cause your skin to turn yellow! This is particularly noticeable on the palms of your hands and soles of your feet. This is called carotenemia. Thankfully, the discoloration disappears once the consumption of carrots is reduced!
Holtville in California calls itself the Carrot Capital of the World and holds an annual carrot festival!

Ice Wolves
by Shelley Tougas Everyone in Vallen knows that ice wolves and scorch dragons are sworn enemies who live deeply separate lives. So when twelve-year-old orphan Anders takes one elemental form and his twin sister, Rayna, takes another, he wonders whether they are even related. Still, whether or not they’re family, Rayna is Anders’s only true friend. She’s nothing like the brutal, cruel dragons who claimed her as one of their own and stole her away. In order to rescue her, Anders must enlist at the foreboding Ulfar Academy, a school for young wolves that values loyalty to the pack above all else. But for Anders, loyalty is more complicated than obedience, and friendship is the most powerful shapeshifting force of all.
Switched
by Jen Calonita Things at Fairy Tale Reform School are great. Rumpelstiltskin has been ousted, and everyone is buzzing about the fact that Beauty and Prince Sebastian (a.k.a. the Beast) have joined the teaching staff. Everyone, that is, except Gilly, who can’t seem to focus on anything but Anna. How is it that her beloved sister somehow went bad and joined up with Rump? And why doesn’t anyone seem to care? Sure, the Royal Court says they’re working on it, but they’ve got exactly nothing to show for it. But when new kid Jack joins FTRS with tales of his own family being snatched by Rump, Gilly knows she’s in good company. Jack wants answers, just like Gilly. And if the Royal Court can’t get the job done, then maybe it’s time to break some rules...

And no matter how many times a grouchy little boy tries to tell him that bears don’t belong in houses, he keeps coming back—until, one day, he doesn’t. Only then does the boy realize how much he cares about the bear . . . and misses him. Can he find his friend again?
When a tornado rips through town, twelveyear-old Ivy Aberdeen's house is destroyed and her family of five is displaced. Ivy feels invisible and ignored in the aftermath of the storm--and what's worse, her notebook filled with secret drawings of girls holding hands has gone missing.

And she writes about the new girl in school, June, who becomes her friend, and then maybe more than a friend. As she becomes better friends with June, Evie begins to question her sexual orientation. She can only imagine what might happen if her parents found out who she really is. She could really use some advice from Cilla. But Cilla isn't writing back.

They don't believe her claim that the museum's Lamp of Bharata is cursed, and they dare Aru to prove it. Just a quick light, Aru thinks. Then she can get herself out of this mess and never ever fib again.
The Night Diary
by Veera Hiranandani It's 1947, and India, newly independent of British rule, has been separated into two countries: Pakistan and India. The divide has created much tension between Hindus and Muslims, and hundreds of thousands are killed crossing borders. Half-Muslim, half-Hindu twelve-year-old Nisha doesn't know where she belongs, or what her country is anymore. When Papa decides it's too dangerous to stay in what is now Pakistan, Nisha and her family become refugees and embark first by train but later on foot to reach her new home. The journey is long, difficult, and dangerous, and after losing her mother as a baby, Nisha can't imagine losing her homeland, too. But even if her country has been ripped apart, Nisha still believes in the possibility of putting herself back together.
The Sky at Our Feet by Nadia Hashimi Jason has just learned that his Afghan mother has been living illegally in the United States since his father was killed in Afghanistan.

He boards a train with the hope of finding his aunt in New York City, but as soon as he arrives in Penn Station, the bustling city makes him wonder if he’s overestimated what he can do. March 2018

Strep Throat Strep throat is a disease caused by a tiny ballshaped type of bacteria (bak-TEER-ee-uh) called group A streptococcus (strep-tuh-KAH-kus). If you have strep throat, the doctor will give you medicine called an antibiotic (an-tye-bye-AH-tik) to kill the strep bacteria. That's good news because sometimes strep throat can get worse and cause problems with other parts of the body. For example, untreated strep can cause arthritis (ar-THRY-tis), kidney problems, or heart problems from a disease called rheumatic (roo-MA-tick) fever. 38
Most of the time you will get the medicine you need and recover from strep throat very quickly. After taking the medicine for 24 hours, you will feel a lot better and will no longer be contagious.

How Do I Know if I Have Strep Throat?

Most of the time, strep will give you a sore throat, headache, stomachache, and fever. It probably won't give you a runny nose or cough. To be sure you have strep throat, your doctor may do one or two tests: First, he or she can do a rapid strep test to check for strep bacteria. The doctor rubs a cotton swab over the back of your throat. Then, the doctor can find out in a few minutes if you have strep throat. If the first test doesn't prove anything, your doctor might do a longer test called a throat culture. Again, the doctor will use a cotton swab. This time, the sample goes on a special dish and is left to sit for 2 nights. If you have strep throat, the bacteria will usually grow in the dish within 1–2 days. March 2018
39
How Can I Get Better? If you have strep throat, your doctor will give you an antibiotic, a medicine that kills bacteria. To make sure the bacteria go away completely and don't spread to other parts of your body, you must finish all of the medicine. Your doctor will have you take the pills or liquid for 10 days. It's really important to take all 10 days of the medicine to make sure all the bad bacteria are gone. If you don't, you could get sick all over again.
40
Your mom or dad may give you acetaminophen (uh-seetuh-MIN-uh-fin) to get rid of aches, pains, and fever. You'll want to have soothing drinks, like tea and warm chicken soup. Frozen foods like ice cream or popsicles also can help to ease throat pain. Avoid spicy and acidic foods, such as orange juice, because they could hurt your tender throat. Your doctor will tell you to stay home from school until you have been taking the antibiotic for at least 24 hours. This way, you won't spread the bacteria to others.
March 2018
Is Strep Throat Contagious? Strep throat is very contagious, and anybody can get it. It happens a lot in kids and teens, especially during the school year when big groups of kids are together.

How Do People Get Strep Throat?
Strep throat is spread when healthy people come into contact with someone who has it. The bacteria can spread to you when a person with strep throat sneezes, coughs, or blows his or her nose and you're nearby, or if you share the same forks, spoons, or straws. If you get strep throat, you'll start to feel sick within 5 days after you were around the person who gave it to you.

Stephen Hawking 3
Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the archduke of astrophysics, the baron of black holes, and the prince of planetary science, Stephen Hawking. Learn more about one of the most accomplished scientists — and one of the most curious minds — of the 20th century with this worksheet about Hawking and his field of study.
44
Stephen Hawking was born in 1942 in Oxford, England. His father was a biologist, so young Stephen was exposed to science from an early age. Inspired by one of his mathematics teachers, Stephen wanted to study math in college. His father, however, wished his son to attend University College. The school had no mathematics program, so Stephen chose physics, the science of matter and energy. He went on to Cambridge for his graduate degree. There, he studied cosmology, the science of the universe. At the age of 21, Hawking learned he had a muscular disease that weakens the muscles of the body, eventually causing paralysis. Despite this difficulty, Hawking was able to finish his PhD degree at Cambridge and go on to a long career in science. Hawking is known for his studies of black holes, places in space that act like vacuums, sucking in any matter that gets close. Instead of using suction, a black hole attracts matter using gravity. A black hole is made when a star collapses. When a star collapses, it loses size, but gains more gravity. This is the gravity that pulls things into a black hole. It was once thought that all matter that enters a black hole is destroyed, but in 2004 Hawking announced that black holes may leak tiny amounts of matter and energy. March 2018
In addition to his work on black holes, Hawking has written many important books on space and the universe. His most popular book, A Brief History of Time, describes the science of space in ways even nonscientists can understand. With his daughter Lucy, Hawking wrote George’s Secret Key to the Universe, a book that introduces kids to the science of space.

Mount Rushmore Birth, Expansion, Preservation, and Development By: Sue Peterson
Mount Rushmore known as “The Presidents’ Mountain” is located in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Doane Robinson thought of the idea to have a stoned carved monument as one way to attract people from all over the country to come to his state. Robinson met with Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor who worked on Stone Mountain in Georgia. Borglum selected the location for Mount Rushmore and Robinson worked to get funding for this project. Congress agreed to matching funds of $250,000 for this project and created the Mount Rushmore National Memorial Commission. The monument was completed and dedicated in 1941. 50
The Black Hills in South Dakota is home to many creatures like bison, elk, pronghorn and bighorn sheep, coyotes, mountain lions, bobcats, and others. This is a land where mountains meet the plains and merge two very different ecosystems, leading to a blend of diverse habitats and animals.
March 2018
Many thousands of people visit South Dakota each year and stop to visit Mount Rushmore to see this attraction.
