The First Viruses
Computer viruses started in the late 1980s. The first viruses were on floppy disks. These disks stored the computer's information. People put �i!_�?. code onto a floppy disk. The �i_r:�_s_ would take over the computer. It would spread when people shared floppy disks.
The first computer viruses were spread through floppy disks.
These viruses did a lot of damage. They destroyed the computer. Some of them sent pop-up messages that never stopped. Others deleted information from the computer.
Keeping up with the Times
Computer viruses have changed a lot since then. Now, people can make viruses that are hidden in emails or downloads. They infect the computer when a user opens an email or clicks on a link.

The Great Depression
Freckle Level: 2B
The Great Depression (1929-1939) was a tough period in U.S.
history. Millions lost their jobs and money. Families couldn't
afford food. The U.S. would have to step in to help the country
recover.
Stock Market Crash of 1929
During the 1920s, Americans spent more money than they had.
The banks weren't acting much better. They invested money in
irresponsible ways.
By 1929, people stopped spending. Businesses died. People lost
trust in companies. They panicked by pulling their money out of
the stock market.
The Effects of the Crash
Americans were worried they would need cash. Millions took
their money out of banks, forcing banks to close.
A crowd at waits to pull out their money
Americans began to spend less money. Businesses didn't have enough to pay their workers. By 1931, six million Americans were
jobless. Many had to give up their homes and live on the streets.

Gravity
Freckle Level: 2C
'What goes up, must come down." This saying explains gravity.
Gravity is a force that pulls all objects toward each other. Think of a basketball falling from the net. That is 8.C?�i_(X in action!
Gravity and Isaac Newton
In 1687, Sir Isaac Newton was sitting under a tree. An apple fell and hit him in the head. He guessed that there was a force pulling objects to the earth. That force was g_�?�i_(X.
A drawing of Isaac Newton under the tree
Newton discovered that 8.C?�i_(X pulls objects together. It does not matter how heavy or light they are. Gravity is felt even from far away. It keeps our feet on the ground. It keeps the planets moving around the sun.
Gravity on the moon
You can only notice B.C?�i_(X with huge objects like planets. The greater the mass of an object, the stronger its g_c?�i_(X. The moon is much smaller than Earth, so its 8.C?��tx is not as strong. This means that objects weigh less on the moon. They can take huge leaps because there is less 8.C?�i_(X pulling them down!

Where is gravity stronger: on Earth or on the moon?
1/3
Your weight changes on the moon since the moon's gravity is not
as strong.
In 1589, Galileo discovered that g���i_txs pull is the same for all
objects. On Earth, air pushes against falling objects. If an object catches a lot of air, like a feather, it will fall slowly. On the moon there is no air. A feather and a bowling ball will fall at the same speed!
Thank You Gravity
Every planet has its own field of g��-�i_t_x. This field pulls objects toward its center. The further you get from Earth, the weaker its pull. That is why�-�!��';.'!�.�� float in space. �:-�YJ� is much simpler when we just think about Earth. Gravity keeps our feet on the ground. Anything we throw up in the air will come back down!

I got my first job with a professional dance company when I was 18. It was a small role, but I did get to be in some shows. Sixmonths later, I earned a larger role in the company.

Being ballet dancer is hard on your body. We practice many hours a day. My weekends are filled with shows.

Two weeks later, Snodgrass looked at the dam.

Soon, a group of angry animals came along. 'What is going on here?" asked Snodgrass.
'Without that dam, the bears would eat us!" said Topo the turtle.
'We would wash away!" said Oona the opossum.
'Wow," said Snodgrass.
Snodgrass went into his shell to look at his law books. He found one law that might fix the problem. He came out of his shell. "It is lime for a vote," he told the animals.
The animals in the marsh cast their voces. Almost all voted to keep the dam.

The First Viruses
Computer viruses started in the late 1980s. The first viruses were on floppy disks. These disks stored the computer's information. People put �i�l:1.S. code onto a floppy disk. The �i��-s_ would take over the computer. It would spread when people shared floppy disks.
The first computer viruses were spread through floppy disks.
These viruses did a lot of damage. They destroyed the computer. Some of them sent pop-up messages that never stopped. Others deleted information from the computer.
Keeping up with the Times
Computer viruses have changed a lot since then. Now, people can make viruses that are hidden in emails or downloads. They infect the computer when a user opens an email or clicks on a link.

Freckle Level: 2B

Stock Market Crash of 1929
During the 1920s, Americans spent more money than they had. The banks weren't acting much better. They invested money in irresponsible ways.
By 1929, people stopped spending. Businesses died. People lost trust in companies. They panicked by pulling their money out of the stock market.
The Effects of the Crash
Americans were worried they would need cash. Millions took their money out of banks, forcing banks to close.

Americans began to spend less money. Businesses didn't have enough to pay their workers. By 1931, six million Americans were jobless. Many had to give up their homes and live on the streets.

Gravity
Freckle Level: 2C
'What goes up, must come down." This saying explains gravity.
Gravity is a force that pulls all objects toward each other. Think of a basketball falling from the net. That is g�?�i_t)'. in action!
Gravity and Isaac Newton
In 1687, Sir Isaac Newton was sitting under a tree. An apple fell and hit him in the head. He guessed that there was a force pulling objects to the earth. That force was 8.�?�i_t)'..
A drawing of Isaac Ne'Nton under the tree
Newton discovered that g�?�i_t)'. pulls objects together. It does not matter how heavy or light they are. Gravity is felt even from far away. It keeps our feet on the ground. It keeps the planets moving around the sun.
Gravity on the moon
You can only notice g�?�i!)'. with huge objects like planets. The greater the mass of an object, the stronger its 8.�?�i_t)'.. The moon is much smaller than Earth, so its 8.�?�i_t)'. is not as strong. This means that objects weigh less on the moon. They can take huge leaps because there is less g�?�i_t)'. pulling them down!

Your weight changes on the moon since the moon's gravity is not

In 1589, Galileo discovered that g,�?:'.iY.s pull is the same for all
objects. On Earth, air pushes against falling objects. If an object catches a lot of air, like a feather, it will fall slowly. On the moon there is no air. A feather and a bowling ball will fall at the same speed!
