How to Get White Clothes BRIGHT White - Page 2 of 2 - 101 Days of Organization Over time, white clothes can start to get a yellow, grey, or blue tint to them.

5 Reasons Why Music Classes are the Best Test Prep for Your Kids - Dads Round Table Nothing useful going on here. cough cough. A friend of mine mentioned to me a few days ago that at his local high school in Massachusetts, the school’s private music lessons are scheduled to be shelved for several months. At this school, students in instrumental music have the option to leave a core class, once per week, for thirty minutes, to study one-on-one with the school’s music director. Why will the lessons be halted? To “hopefully, allow 100% of our students more time to prepare for the pilot testing of a new state mandated standardized test,” according to the district’s superintendent. Let me repeat that. It counts. Music IS test prep. 1) Research has repeatedly shown that students with a musical education out-perform those without a music background on standardized tests. We found jumps of 22 percent in English test scores and 20 percent in math scores at elementary schools with superior music education. 2) What is the goal of an education? Pretty fair set of life skills.

What Are You Learning? Welcome to Soul Speak! If you’re ready to slow down for a moment, listen to your inner wisdom, push through your fears, and support others on the same journey, you’re in the right place! Click above to receive these Soul-Connection Tools for free! It seems the older I get, the more I realize how little I truly know. It seems silly to admit this – especially since we’re always learning and growing and experiencing and taking so much into our hearts and our minds at any given moment. And yet, I am constantly humbled by how much I still don’t know. I find that so exciting! I thought it would be fun to share some of what I’ve been learning recently and then invite you to share what you’re learning as well. I also wanted to point out that I’m very consciously phrasing this as to what I’m learning rather than what I’ve learned. Here’s some of what I’ve been learning: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. Now it’s your turn! Hugs,
Can you google that? – informationssökning på engelska | Mias klassrum Att internet flyttat in i våra klassrum är det ingen som har missat, men att det smugit sig in bland kunskapskraven är det många som missat, försöker låtsas om att de inte sett eller helt enkelt tycker är riktigt jobbigt. Men det finns ju där, vad vi än tycker om det. Det ska undervisas och bedömas, säga vad man vill om det. Att gå in på hur relevant och effektivt eleverna återanvänder sina sökresultat i sin egna produktion är en diskussion i sig, men nu tänkte jag fokusera på själva undervisningen. Jag har satt ihop ett material för att undervisa mina 9or i informationssökning. Can you google that? Som en del av övningen gör eleverna en självskattning, hämtad från bedömningsstödet. Efter genomgång och självskattning får eleverna öva på att söka information. Filen med övningen kan ni hämta här. Den som följt min blogg känner säkert igen frågorna, de är hämtade från det här inlägget.

Cognitive map Overview[edit] Cognitive maps serve the construction and accumulation of spatial knowledge, allowing the "mind's eye" to visualize images in order to reduce cognitive load, enhance recall and learning of information. This type of spatial thinking can also be used as a metaphor for non-spatial tasks, where people performing non-spatial tasks involving memory and imaging use spatial knowledge to aid in processing the task.[6] The neural correlates of a cognitive map have been speculated to be the place cell system in the hippocampus[7] and the recently discovered grid cells in the entorhinal cortex.[8] Neurological basis[edit] Cognitive mapping is believed to largely be a function of the hippocampus. Numerous studies by O'Keefe have implicated the involvement of place cells. Parallel map theory[edit] Generation[edit] The cognitive map is generated from a number of sources, both from the visual system and elsewhere. History[edit] The idea of a cognitive map was first developed by Edward C.
School Cafeteria Lunches Around the World Each day in the United States, over 32 million students eat lunches from their school cafeterias. The food consumed accounts for more than half of each students daily calorie intake – which therefore makes the school cafeteria that much more important in delivering healthy food and preventing child obesity. Unfortunately, if you grew up going to an American school and eating food in the cafeteria, it is unlikely you got the most delicious and healthy food. Yet, if you grew up going to a school in another country around the world, you may have had a different experience. SweetGreen is a chain of salad restaurants that run the SweetGreen in Schools program. France: Steak, carrots, green beans, cheese, and fruit. Italy: Local fish with arugula, pasta, caprese salad, bread, and grapes. Spain: Shrimp with brown rice, gazpacho, bread, peppers, and an orange.

Homemade Zesty Italian Salad Dressing Recipe - Old World Garden Farms Italian salad dressing is hands down the most frequently used condiment in our kitchen. Not only do we use it to top our garden fresh salads, we also use it as a marinade for grilled chicken breasts and as the main flavoring agent in our homemade pasta salad. However, one look at the ingredient label on the store-bought versions can cause anyone to hesitate to purchase. There are so many added preservatives which allow the dressings to have a guaranteed shelf life for several years. I don’t know about you, but for me, that is just plain scary. Making any type of salad dressing is simple and easy, and quite honestly take only minutes to prepare with basic ingredients found in your pantry. We use Zesty Italian salad dressing most often as it provides great flavor with a balanced level of the traditional tang found in classic Italian dressings and combines it with just the right amount of spice to give it a little bit of a kick. Instructions: Enjoy! Mary and Jim Italian Salad Dressing Yields 1
Young readers prefer printed books A new book called Words Onscreen: The Fate of Reading in a Digital World cites surveys that say that young readers increasingly prefer to read books from paper, not screens. More than that, though, they find ebooks and printed books complementary. Printed books are good for protracted reading and comprehension. Ebooks are good for subsequent reference and convenient access. By the same token, books are becoming more booklike. The Washington Post report on the book is interesting, if problematic for its use of the loathsome phrase "digital native". The preference for print over digital can be found at independent bookstores such as the Curious Iguana in downtown Frederick, Md., where owner Marlene England said millennials regularly tell her they prefer print because it’s “easier to follow stories.” Why digital natives prefer reading in print.
