A Taste of Russian The Common Core State Standards Initiative The Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI) Interactive Map by iMapBuilder The Common Core State Standards: Development, Adoption, and ImplementationThe Common Core State Standards (CCSS) are a set of high quality academic expectations in English-language arts (ELA) and mathematics that define the knowledge and skills all students should master by the end of each grade level in order to be on track for success in college and career. The development of the standards was a state-led effort spearheaded by governors and school chiefs. CCSSO and the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices coordinated the development process in partnership with Achieve, ACT, and the College Board. A diverse team of teachers, parents, administrators, researchers and content experts developed the CCSS to be academically rigorous, attainable for students, and practical for teachers and districts, and an expert validation committee provided an independent review of the standards.
Common Core State Standards Checklists for the Classroom Our common core standards checklists are just what you need to help you keep track of the standards taught in your classroom. Use these to make sure you are addressing all that you need to teach throughout the course of the school year. Keep track of when you have introduced, retaught and assessed each indicator. ***Please keep in mind that this checklist is more to be used as a system of checks and balances in your teaching for the year and not so much a “check off” sheet for these indicators to be checked and thought of as “done”.

Проектите, които ще се ангажират ОУ Readers It's my fault. I'll admit it. During my eight years in the classroom, I ruined at least two amazing literary works by assigning horrifically dull reading projects. My only hope is that those middle school students, whose enthusiasm I quashed, found another way to become passionate about literature. Peanuts raises some interesting questions about the value of reading projects. In middle school, we ask students to dissect texts and perform literary analysis. Demonstrate understanding of the plot elementsExplore the role of tone and themeIdentify significant scenes or events and their impact on the storyAnalyze a character and show an understanding of that character's motivationsExplain the relationship between the author's life and the story . . . does it have to be an essay or book report? Book Trailers In the spirit of movie trailers, book trailers allow students to create video advertisements to entice new readers. Students could use iMovie or Animoto to create and publish their videos.
Common Core Connect Georgia Organization of School Based Speech Language Pathologists: Common Core for SLPs Language Skills in the standards from an SLP Lens - summary of language skills in the standards Standards Charts: Listed below are charts with standards listed by levels: elementary, middle, and high school. They are listed by grade levels and strands to help SLPs see the horizontal and vertical progression. The charts are for Language Arts, but we will be adding others soon. These standards are complex and will need to be “unwrapped” or “broken down” into more discrete language skills. However, SLPs can easily see language skills that can be translated into goal/objectives for deficit skills (e.g., retelling, main idea, important details, summarizing information, etc.). To use the charts, here is an example: if a student is in 5th grade, but functioning closer to the 2nd grade standard, the SLP can look back at earlier grade level expectations and analyze the skills needed for the student to progress towards the grade level standard.

Italy Travel: New Year's Eve Events in Italian Cities New Year's Eve sees many festive events throughout Italy but the biggest and most popular are in these Italian cities. Note about New Year's Eve events in Italy: Major events draw huge crowds. Plan to arrive early or watch from afar. Driving and parking will be difficult (or impossible) in most places so check out public transportation options ahead of time and remember that they'll be crowded, too. Rome Rome's traditional New Year's Eve celebrations are centered in Piazza del Popolo. Next to the church of Santa Maria del Popolo, you can still see the exhibit of traditional nativity scenes (through January 8) from 100 regions of Italy and other countries of the world. Another good place to celebrate is near the Colosseum on Via dei Fori Imperiali where there's live music usually starting around 10PM and midnight fireworks. For live music, check these Rome Music Venues. Rome Travel Guide | Where to Stay in Rome Rimini Rimini Travel Guide | Where to Stay in Rimini Naples and Capri Bologna Venice

Настучать и устаканить - Very Much Russian Podcast Hello everybody. Here is a new podcast delivering you a new portion of informal Russian language and slang. Today you will learn such words as “устаканить” и “застолбить”, as well as get to know one more meaning of the word “стучать” (to knock). Audio Player Download mp3 file (right click, save as…) Всем привет. Сегодня у нас очередная порция русской разговорной речи и сленга. Мы смогли встретиться только после того, как волнения в городе устаканились. Мне нужно устаканить несколько вещей и после этого я полностью свободна. “Устаканить” происходит от слова “стакан”. Следующим номером у нас выступает “застукать”, что означает “застать врасплох за каким-либо занятием”. Мои родители застукали, что я курю, и неделю не выпускали меня из дома. Давай быстрее, пока нас не застукали. Как можно заметить, происходит это слово от “стучать”. Одноклассники его не любили, так как были уверены, что он обо всем стучит учителям и директору. Кто-то настучал моим родителям, что мы прогуляли школу сегодня.

The phrase ‘soft skills’ is often used to describe the skills which characterise relationships with other people, or which are about how you approach life and work. Others phrases that are often used for these types of skills include: ‘people skills’, ‘interpersonal skills’, ‘social skills’ or ‘transferable skills’. ‘Hard skills’, by contrast, is a phrase usually used to describe job-specific skills. Ironically, for many people, the so-called soft skills are often some of the hardest skills to develop. The Relative Importance of Hard and Soft Skills Job-related expertise is essential in any profession and in many other careers. That is, the hard skills are a basic minimum necessary in order to operate in that particular workplace. Principles of Competition Think of soft skills in the light of competition principles.
