In the week of the tragic terrorist attacks that took place in Paris my youngest daughter (aged 10) came back from school with homework to research and write about a human rights concern in relation to children anywhere in the world. She already had a clear idea of what she wanted to research. I had the radio on and she listened to the news of the terrorist attacks that had taken place on the offices of the cartoonists Charlie Hebdo and the Kosher supermarket. I attempted to explain to her that these terrorist attacks were against the freedom for people to believe in what they believe in and to express what they think through their cartoons and words.
“Why would the terrorists do that?” I could not have expressed it more clearly myself and her words echo article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights summarised here for the very young in We Are All born Free a picture book by Amnesty International.

Highhill Homeschool: Multiplication Circles. I love multiplication circles because they can really help right brained creative kids understand multiplication. Plus, they are interesting for kids who already have a good handle on multiplication. Completing one of the circles is a bit like doing a dot-to-dot using the ones digit of a multiplication table multiplier. Ok, so that was a bit confusing, so let me try an example. For example, the numbers in the four times table are 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36 and 40. If you look only at the ones digit you should notice a repeating pattern of 0,4,8,2,6. Those are the numbers to use for the circle dot-to-dot. My eleven year old who was way beyond multiplication loved this activity.

Several of my wonderful readers have asked/emailed about how I use interactive notebooks in the music room.
Hopefully this post can help you, in case you decide to use them in your own classroom. Let me caution you - This is only my 2nd year using them. I decided to "give it one more go" before I pass judgement on the idea as a whole. Last year, I used them often in the first semester, but they somewhat "fizzled" out in the second - I even decided to keep my 5th graders notebooks and recycle them for third this year.
Pros - I like the idea of having a place for students to log what they've learned, reflect on what they've heard, and post assignments and compositions, not to mention something they can take with them when they go on to middle school. Cons - I do not like the 1) time it takes to use the notebooks and, honestly, the 2) time it takes for me to create things to go inside the notebooks (Have you seen your average 3rd grader make a foldable? Here are a few melodic-based pages. The Sweetest Melody: Fall/Autumn. With Halloween on the way, I'm totally in the Autumn-mode. Here are some skeleton/bone/ghost songs that I love (and none of them mention "Halloween", in case you have students that don't celebrate): First of all, there's my personal favorite, "The Ghost of John" by Martha Grubb.
I use it every Halloween and the kids love the spooky melody. Last year, I came across a great movement idea from Amy's Blog (she sings "Tom" instead of "John"): Ghost of Tom. My older students already know the song "Dry Bones Come Skipping" (this is now included in my Fall into Music bundle). I've included a few slides for: discussing who Ezekiel was, reviewing the lyrics, and adding the steady beat. By Halloween, (fingers crossed), the 4th and 5th grade students will be ready to add low so to our pitch repertoire (they already know low la). The students will also add orff instruments to the song. In the past, I've also added, "Dry Bones" (Dem Bones) with motions (in a large circle):A Section (sung twice): MIN VILLAHAGE: Grått, lime og hvitt. Akeleiefrøstjerne.

Wedding Planner Book by Atlas & I. Which is more democratic? America or Britain? On the surface both Great Britain and America fulfil all the basic requirements of democracy, they have universal suffrage, and both governments are regularly held accountable to the people. However, when it comes to judging which is the most democratic, you have to look at how each system works. When looking at the governmental systems up close it is easy to see them both as being less than full democratic. In both the UK and USA any citizen, be they male or female, black or white, has the right to vote inelections, as long as they are over eighteen years old. This universal suffrage is something that is desperately needed if a country is going to be democratic, for if some citizens are excluded from the right to vote then a government is obviously not democratic because not everyone who lives in that country is getting a chance to say how they want it to be run.
America’s democratic claims are also reinforced by the strict separation of powers that is stipulated in the Constitution. The perfect poetry lesson: how my teacher brought poems to life | Teacher Network. I remember the best poetry lesson I ever had as though it was yesterday; it was at Low Valley Junior School in Darfield, near Barnsley, on a freezing cold morning in 1965. The date is significant because at that time Darfield was part of the legendary West Riding of Yorkshire Education Authority, which was run by the (in my humble opinion) godlike genius Sir Alec Clegg, whose simple creed was that all children are creative, we can all be writers and, wonderfully, we can all be poets. So Mr Meakin took us out into the yard in our scarves and hats and our breath hung like steam.
"How cold is it? " he asked, and somebody said "as cold as a fridge! " Then we went back to the class and we all (including Mr Meakin, with his brow furrowed and his pencil in his mouth) wrote and rewrote and made books and collages and sculptures until it was time to go to Mrs Hudson for choir practice. The components for that perfect poetry lesson were simple but effective. It's simple, really.
