English Vocabulary Have Fun Teaching Decoding the Secret Language of Food Expiration Dates Americans tend to harbor dark suspicions about that forgotten can of beans in the back of the pantry, far past its sell-by date. If you’re like most consumers, you probably just toss expired items on the better-safe-than-sorry principle (unless, perhaps, it’s a Twinkie). But there’s a good chance many aged food remains totally safe to eat, according to a new report (PDF) that blames the flawed food-dating system for tons of perfectly edible food getting wasted each year. While many consumers consider the dates printed on foods a hard deadline, they actually indicate maximum quality or freshness, not safety, explains David Fikes, vice president in charge of consumer affairs at the Food Marketing Institute (FMI), a food trade group. While some of those products are donated to food banks, many end up in the landfill. One of the problems, NRDC scientist Dana Gunders says, is that none of the myriad ways foods are labeled actually tell consumers when they should throw out a product.
ESL worksheets, English grammar printables, ESL handouts | ESLPDF.com Constructivism (learning theory) Jean Piaget: founder of Constructivism In past centuries, constructivist ideas were not widely valued due to the perception that children's play was seen as aimless and of little importance. Jean Piaget did not agree with these traditional views, however. He saw play as an important and necessary part of the student's cognitive development and provided scientific evidence for his views. For more detailed information on the philosophy of the construction of human knowledge, see constructivist epistemology. Formalization of the theory of constructivism is generally attributed to Jean Piaget, who articulated mechanisms by which knowledge is internalized by learners. When individuals assimilate, they incorporate the new experience into an already existing framework without changing that framework. According to the theory, accommodation is the process of reframing one's mental representation of the external world to fit new experiences. A few strategies for cooperative learning include

Cauliflower Soup I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Come closer now…come closer. Lean in. Are you ready? I’m going to whisper. Okay, so I just made a big deal out of nothing. Keep in mind that while this soup may appear to have a lot of steps, there’s nothing difficult about it. Here’s what you’ll need: The Cast of Characters: Cauliflower, Carrot, Onion, Celery, Chicken Broth or Stock, Milk, Half & Half, Butter, Flour, Salt, Pepper, Sour Cream, and Parsley (fresh or dried). Wash 1 to 2 heads of cauliflower, depending on how chunky you’d like the soup to be. Just whack the head in half and get rid of the hard inner core and green parts. Then just roughly chop the cauliflower. You could be meticulous and cut the cauliflower into neat little florets…but why? Next, finely dice one carrot. I do the same to the celery: just cut it into strips, then dice. Same goes with the onion: first cut lines/strips… Then dice away! Then say the following word: Mirepoix, pronounced “mi-reh-pwah.” And cover the pot. Yum.
