Charivari à l'école - Ressources pour les profs des écoles Je ne sais plus si je vous ai dit que, cette année, j'ai un poste assez exotique. Sur une semaine, j'ai des PS, des GS, des CE1, et des Segpa en 5°, 4° et 3° qui ont, grossièrement, un niveau de CE2-CM1. Je cours un peu après le temps. C'est donc avec grand plaisir que j'ai découvert deux collections de fichiers photocopiables que j'aime beaucoup, pour mes Segpas (mais ils sont faits pour le Primaire, au départ). Ce qui fait leur particularité, c'est : 1. qu'il n'y a quasi pas d'illustrations enfantines qui froisseraient mes grands gaillards d'ados 2. leur parti pris de différenciation. J'explique avec un exemple parce que ce sera plus parlant : voici deux fiches extraites du fichier CM1 Maths Tout Terrain différenciation (Bordas). Elles traitent de la soustraction d'entiers. Pendant ce temps, il y a toujours des élèves qui peinent... et à ceux là, on donne la fiche de gauche. Comment je les utilise (avec mes Segpas) ? Existe aussi au CM2 (clic)
the yellow pencil index Take typing lessons, test your typing speed and practice typing for free! This is keybr.com, a web application that will help you teach touch typing. Touch typing is typing without using the sense of sight to find the keys. A person possessing touch typing skills will know their location on the keyboard through muscle memory. It can improve any individual's typing speed and accuracy dramatically. This is a short tutorial that will explain how does this application work. You can use the left and right arrow keys to navigate through these slides. This tutorial is based on these few principles: No boring, repetitive exercises. Initially it starts generating words from a small subset of the most frequent letters of the alphabet. When you are typing these words, keybr measures time to type a key for every letter in that subset. Once you familiarize yourself with the current subset of letters, the algorithm expands it, including more and more letters to it. So at any time, you will by typing the letters you are least familiar with. This is the text board. ? ? ? ? ?
My Licence - The Driver's Handbook - Seatbelts Wearing a seatbelt doubles your chances of surviving a serious crash yet despite the benefits shown by road safety research, time and time again too few people buckle up their seatbelt. One third of all drivers and passengers killed and 9% of vehicle occupants seriously injured are not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash. Many of these deaths and injuries could have been prevented, or be less severe, if the people were wearing a seatbelt. Some of these passengers were children. A restraint or seatbelt will not work at all if it hasn't been correctly fastened. The severity of injury received in crashes, especially injuries to the face and head, is significantly lower if occupants wear their seatbelts. Wearing a seatbelt can be a life or death decision - both for you and your passengers. By law, drivers must ensure that they and any other passenger in the vehicle are wearing their seatbelt, regardless of their age. Important information about child restraints:

How to Write an A+ Research Paper This Chapter outlines the logical steps to writing a good research paper. To achieve supreme excellence or perfection in anything you do, you need more than just the knowledge. Like the Olympic athlete aiming for the gold medal, you must have a positive attitude and the belief that you have the ability to achieve it. That is the real start to writing an A+ research paper. Choose a topic which interests and challenges you. Your attitude towards the topic may well determine the amount of effort and enthusiasm you put into your research. Focus on a limited aspect, e.g. narrow it down from "Religion" to "World Religion" to "Buddhism". Select a subject you can manage. Surf the Net. For general or background information, check out useful URLs, general information online, almanacs or encyclopedias online such as Britannica.
