-  This chef cooks live with kids every Monday and Wednesday at 4. You can access the direct links if you click below ( maybe the English is a bit more advanced here, but remember you can slow down the speed of the video, which makes it a bit easier to understand)

Hello everybody!

In this link, you can see the importance of washing your hands- always!

https://thekidshouldseethis.com/post/proper-handwashing-an-animation

(at the bottom of the video you can activate the subtitles).

If you have younger brothers and sisters, you may want to do this experiment with them, to show them how important it is to wash our hands ( you can also activate the subtitles):

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho0o7H6dXSU

You should tell them that the pepper represents the virus, and the dishwasher liquid represents the soap we use when we wash our hands.

I also found this video that explains very well the difference between fact and opinion:

https://www.schooltube.com/media/1_kes3m9jo

We talked about it last week when we were explaining how to order the adjectives.

Why don´t you leave a comment writing an opinion and a fact?
