Description
For the young to further understand terms they usually encounter during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, the faculty of the University of the Philippines (UP) College of Education has created a children’s dictionary containing words related to COVID-19.
This material contains ten words that children often see or hear on television or social media. It also contains images to engage children to read and help them understand and visualize the term being used.
A copy of the dictionary, which is available in the English and Filipino languages, can be downloaded at https://bit.ly/dictionaryforchildren
