"COVID-19 Vaccines for Children and Teens."

 Vaccines will help protect your child against diseases that can cause serious harm or death, especially in people with developing immune systems like infants. It’s important to vaccinate your child. If not, highly contagious diseases such as measles, diphtheria and polio, which were once wiped out in many countries, will come back. In the U.S., vaccines have greatly reduced or eliminated many infectious diseases that once routinely killed or harmed infants, children, and adults. However, the viruses and bacteria that cause these diseases still exist and you can still get these diseases if you aren’t vaccinated.  It can be safe and can go back to school in heres why?, Vaccines can lower your chance of getting certain diseases. Vaccines work with your body’s natural defenses to help you safely develop immunity to disease. This lowers your chances of getting certain diseases and suffering from their complications. Like any vaccine, COVID-19 vaccines can cause mild, short term si...

Araw ng kagitingan

                            "Araw ng Kagitingan”  known as the Fall of Bataan in the World War II, is a day of reflection for all personnel of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP). “It’s a day of reflection for every soldier, airman, sailor, and marine on how our forebears and Filipino Defenders of Bataan and Corregidor demonstrated to the world its brand of extraordinary heroism, ardent patriotism, uncommon valor, and selfless sacrifice,” Arevalo said. “With their blood, sweat, and tears, our veterans bequeathed to our generation the air of freedom we breathe, the atmosphere of peace we live, and the democracy we enjoy".

LENTEN SEASON

"LENTEN SEASON"   The Lenten season is the most appropriate time to ‘talk’ and get closer to God. I join the Christian world in celebrating the season in prayers, rituals and traditions. We strongly feel the spirit of the Lenten season in the lowlands, particularly in the Ilocos provinces, because we can hear the “passion” songs that depict the sufferings of Jesus Christ. There are night processions where they carry the statues of saints, accompanied by people with lighted candles I observe the Lenten season by praying profoundly and deeply; going to mass; making sacrifices for our Lord Jesus Christ; doing the Stations of the Cross; reflecting and meditating on the passion and death of our Lord Jesus Christ and the Seven Last Words; doing the Visita Iglesia

NEW YEARS RESOLUTION

Image
Focus on learning, not just grades. New Year is the perfect opportunity to reflect on the past, the present and the future. I make them concise, measurable and realistic. My new year's resolutions are to focus on a healthy diet, learn rather memorise, speak up whenever I do not understand, summarise each class in three sentences, be more helpful to my classmates, join more student clubs and ignore distractions.  

2nd quarter

  This quarter, I have learned new concepts that will be added to my knowledge, as well as fascinating events that I will participate in. And I wasn't disappointed because I learnt how to utilize HTML in the second quarter. Though I was so engaged in this quarter's lessons, they were simple for me to grasp. I may have met difficulties, but I was able to overcome them and continue. I didn't understand the first lesson at first, but I was eager to learn, so I asked my cousin what the lesson was all about, and I quickly grasped it. And basic HTML was simple for me, and I enjoy coding. Even so, because I'm prone to forgetting stuff, I had to memorize or review it.      Progressing forward, I'll keep doing what I'm doing since it's a good habit to have, and I'll try my best to maintain it. I'm hoping that the upcoming quarter will be as fascinating as the previous one was, and that it will be as easy as the previous one.    No matter what happened i wil...

“A person's a person, no matter how small.”

           “A person's a person, no matter how small.”       The COVID-19 pandemic has upended the lives of families around the world. Across virtually every key measure of childhood, progress has gone backward in the 12 months since the pandemic was declared, leaving children confronting a devastating and distorted new normal. The past year has seen an increase in children who have been left hungry, isolated, abused and anxious. The education of hundreds of millions of children has been disrupted. Access to protection services and health services – including routine vaccinations – has been severely impacted. The pandemic is also affecting young people’s mental health and pushing their families into poverty. Such social and economic disruptions can increase the likelihood of child marriage.

  Christmas 2021 will be very different from all the previous years because of the ongoing pandemic. With travel restrictions and social gathering norms in place, it is likely that this year one has to spend the holiday season away from friends and extended family. The safest option still is to celebrate holidays and other special events only with members of your own household. To connect with friends and loved ones you can't see in person, host virtual events. You can chat while eating, play games, "see" each other's holiday decorations, or share recipes. Weddings, funerals, graduations, and other major milestones can be shared virtually, letting lots of people join from near and far. As more people get vaccinated, gatherings become safer. But not all children are vaccinated, and some people with weak immune systems or medical conditions might still get sick even after being vaccinated. So we still need to take precautions.Here are some ways to enjoy holidays and gat...
