Staying at Home

Hi. It seems that around the country more and more schools are closing down and more and more students are spending their days at home. Those without required online schooling may feel increasingly bored. Amusing though it may be to have an 'early summer', many may be worried about school the next year.

For anybody who really doesn't know what to do with all the free time now being shoved in their face, here are some suggestions:

Education (free too!)

• Khan Academy has good beginner and high school level 'classes' if you want to keep studying, in addition they have test preparation materials

• https://www.khanacademy.org/

• Coursera has many open online classes with high specialization, if you want to explore some existing interests or find new ones

Exercise

• Some good channels are:

• https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCq7bR6RxqqOx8cptc1-0AVQ (for short, intense exercise)

• https://www.youtube.com/user/KozakSportsPerform (varying length)

• https://www.youtube.com/user/FitnessBlender/videos (also varying length)

Books
