Instead, they receive their elementary and high school education by working at home on puters. The Center for Education Reform says the United States has 67 public ―cyberschools,‖ and that is twice as many as two years ago. The money for students to attend cyberschool es form the governments of the states where they live. Some educators say cyberschools receive money that should support traditional public schools. They also say it is difficult to know if students are learning well. Other educators praise this new form of education for letting students work at their own speed. These people say cyberschools help students who were unhappy or unsuccessful in traditional schools. They say learning at home by puter ends long bus rides for children who live far from school. Whatever the judgment of cyberschools, they are getting more and more popular. For example, a new cyberschool called Commonwealth Connections Academy will take in students this fall. It will serve children in the state of Pennsylvania from ages five through thirteen. Children get free equipment for their online education. This includes a puter, a printer, books and technical services. Parents and students talk with teachers by telephone or by sending s through their puters when necessary.

It is formed by the action of wind and water on rocks over thousands of years . The rocks change in both chemical and physical ways. Chemically, elements like potassium and aluminum are added and take away. Physically, the rocks break down into smaller and smaller pieces. After a long time, some of the rock changes to clay. Clay is important because it is used around the world to make containers of all kinds. Potters add water to soften the clay. This makes it easier to form into shapes by hand or by machine. Then it is fired in an extremely hot stove. The result is a container with a hard surface that will last for
