The six language arts, as designated by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) and the International Reading Association (IRA) (Standards for the English Language Arts, 1996), are listening, speaking, reading, writing, viewing, and visually representing.

The Language Arts Listening: understanding spoken language Speaking: communicating ideas through oral language Reading: understanding written language Writing: communicating through written language Viewing: understanding visual images and connecting them to accompanying spoken or written words Visually Representing: presenting information through images, either alone or along with spoken or written words All meanings that are attached to the words that we use are obtained through experience.

Jane Addams of Hull House. By Naomi Segal Jane Addams Jane Addams was almost seven years old when she first sensed that city life was not all ice-cream cones and visits to the toy store.
The daughter of a well-to-do Illinois businessman, Jane often went with her father on his trips to the mills that he owned. She loved playing in the great heaps of grain in the storerooms. Such a trip usually ended with a stop at the local candy store. One day in 1867, her father had business in the town of Freeport. "Papa, why do these people live in such horrid little houses so close together? " "Because they have no money to live in better places," he replied.

What does kick the bucket mean? The Chocolate Making Process. Creative Writing 101. RJ Great article. Morning is definitely the time where I am most creative. I think it’s because my mind is the freshest and the least cluttered at this time of day. Doug Rosbury When I write, it is with an emphasis on the sharing of wisdom arising from my life experience. Wether one could reasonably term such writing as being creative or not I don’t necessarily concern myself with. The creative aspect which I believe is part of a writing nevertheless may be found in how I address people with careful consideration regarding how I may come across to them. Queen Mary 1.

The ebb and flow of freedom continued through the 1540's...and into the 1550's.

She was possessed in her quest to return England to the Roman Church. In 1555, John "Thomas Matthew" Rogers and Thomas Cranmer were both burned at the stake. Mary went on to burn reformers at the stake by the hundreds for the "crime" of being a Protestant.
Kindergarten. In Kindergarten, instructional time should focus on two critical areas: (1) representing and comparing whole numbers, initially with sets of objects; (2) describing shapes and space.
More learning time in Kindergarten should be devoted to number than to other topics. Students use numbers, including written numerals, to represent quantities and to solve quantitative problems, such as counting objects in a set; counting out a given number of objects; comparing sets or numerals; and modeling simple joining and separating situations with sets of objects, or eventually with equations such as 5 + 2 = 7 and 7 – 2 = 5. (Kindergarten students should see addition and subtraction equations, and student writing of equations in kindergarten is encouraged, but it is not required.)

Operations and Algebraic Thinking. Curriculum and Instruction. Both the Mathematics Florida Standards (MAFS) and Language Arts Florida Standards (LAFS) were approved by the Florida State Board of Education on February 18, 2014.
In response to public concerns about these standards, the Florida Department of Education (FDOE) in the Fall of 2013 opened three channels for the public to provide input to policy makers. First, three public meetings were held throughout the state at which attendees had the opportunity to communicate support for the standards as well as concerns about the standards. Second, a website was posted that presented information about the new standards, links to the proposed standards, transcripts of the public meetings, and other resources.
A form was provided on the website for public input.
