While we've all faced some challenging times this year, it's good to remember the many things we are thankful for that we can share with our families and friends. Here's an idea — give your family the gift of poetry by playing along with the games and activities on pages 4 and 5. I'm sure they'll enjoy your Thanksgiving cinquain. Or you could just kick back and relax. Take things S-L-O-W-L-Y like our friend the sloth. They move so slowly that algae and fungi can grow on their fur. Follow the step-by-step and learn how to draw one too. When you look up at the night sky into space, you would never know that millions of pieces of space junk float around there causing danger to spaceships and satellites. We can report that now there is a robot out there working clean-up—amazing! Thanksgiving is a good time for ME to THANK YOU! —for being a Kid Scoop News reader! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Box 1802 Sonoma, CA 95476 © 2020 by Vicki Whiting Happy September, We live in an age of information that can take us on adventures, give us access to knowledge, help us fulfil our dreams and lead us on to success in our lives. We all want that. We can achieve these goals by becoming better readers. Kid Scoop News helps you read and the more you read, the better you will read. So much depends on reading, from computer lessons to texts on phones. We use our Brain to read, and so we have a page here to show you how a brain works. Frederick Douglass was able to read and write even though he was enslaved. He went on to write a book about his life and he helped end slavery. September 17 is Constitution Day and one of the freedoms given us by the Constitution is the right to freedom of speech. Our spotlight page will help you understand what that means. And this issue has lots of fun things to do too from Outdoor Games that involve getting some exercise, to Space Rocks that explains all those rocks hurtling through space and then a page on Gorillas and how to draw one. I'm ready to read, read, read. This year I'm going to expand my mind and I hope you are too. Dear Readers, Wearing a Mask ........ Freedom of Speech ... Space Rocks ..............

Draw a line connecting each pair of beetles that match. eetles have a special body part that makes them, well, beetles. This special body part is a hard exo-skeleton that covers their wings. Called elytra (El-ih-truh), these hard "wings" provide protection and more. Some beetles trap moisture on their wings, allowing them to survive in the desert. Other kinds of beetles are able to live under water because they trap air in their wings and keep it under the elytra. 2 official Kids mag www.kidscoop.com Vicki Whiting November 2020 Knock Knock. who's there?
