Hello Everyone! Today I am going to talk about contact tracing apps for COVID-19. What are COVID-19 Contact Tracing Apps? Contact tracing apps are basically an app on your phone that notifies you that you are in contact with someone who has COVID-19.  Are people using this app? Around 3% of adult populations in Nevada have downloaded this app. Many people are not aware about this app so they're not downloading it. This app is not giving any benefit because the number of deaths and cases have not yet reduced. In fact, they have increased! Other States Other states across the US have launched similar apps, but they are not giving any benefit. Google and Apple Androids and iphones have these apps, but Apple and Google have put certain protocols on downloading these apps. Why people are not adopting these apps? Personal Data and Information People are worried that these apps are collecting their personal information and tracking their location.  Lack of Awareness States do not hav...

Hello Everyone! The holidays are coming up, and so is winter break. I do know that PUSD (Pleasanton Unified School District) is having winter break next week. How about your school? Since most of us are not going for vacation, I planned a small scavenger hunt! Below is a page explaining directions and what you need to find. That looks like fun to me! If you want to earn a little treat, or you want to do it for fun, be sure to contact me, and send me those items! You can send them to me by email (if you have mine) or commenting on this blog post! ~Aarushi Gupta   5th Grade

Hello Everyone! I got the subscription long time ago for Time Magazines. I usually get these magazines once in two weeks in my mailbox. Whenever I get time, I read a small part. I don't get time to read all of the magazines, but sometimes I read them. If you want to subscribe to the magazines, be sure to first ask your parents. (Just so you know it's not free) Subscribe here if you would like to get magazines! This is the adult version which is more interesting to me, but if you want the Time for Kids, subscribe here !         ~Aarushi Gupta   5th Grade

Hello Everyone! I am currently painting a ceramic model for Christmas. It is a fireplace with stockings! If you don't know what a ceramic model is, it is basically what you would paint at Color Me Mine. Steps On Painting One 1. Clear out any dust 2. Get paint- you need to use either latex, acrylic, or epoxy paint. (I used acrylic), brushes, a napkin or something to dry your brush, and water. Optional item: a painting palette or a plate to take out the paints. 3. Set the colors you are going to use 4. Gently paint the background or base before decorations. You will need to keep clean brush strokes. In order for the color to stand out, you will need to do multiple layers, so it shines.  5. Once you're done with the base, let your model dry. Then, paint the other things on it.  6. Let your model dry. It might take 30 min. - 1 hr. , depending on your model. Pack up your area in the meantime! Enjoy! My model will come probably on Sat. or so! (It will appear in another blog post!) S...
