  • In-School Mentoring Activity Manual
    In-School Mentoring Activity Manual Introducing the Manual and the value of Play Welcome to the In-School Mentoring Program. We hope you are as excited as we are about participating in a program designed to help boost kids’ self-confidence. Sometimes mentors and mentees can get stumped for activities they can do together in one hour. This manual serves as a resource guide. Here you will find new activities, games and craft ideas. Also provided are tried and true hints and advice from current mentors in the field. General information on children’s stages of development is included. This background information may help you to chose a more accurate game to play with your mentee based on his/her skill level, or may remind you of the outside factors your mentee is dealing with at his/her age. Mentors often ask “How does play activity benefit mentees?” Here is a brief response on the value of play… “On the playground of life, game playing equips each of us with the “rules of the game.” As youngsters, games taught us how to work together, to accommodate, and to help one another. Through playful moments, children can act out real-life situations. In imagined contexts, they can learn how to solve problems, look for options, and resolve conflicts. By winning or losing at games, children experience the real world but in less harsh fashion. Children learn about their environment and how to relate to other children, as well as grown-ups. They learn about healthy competition and about trying to do their best.

Fifth ed., © 2008 Docents R IL CONSOLE GENERALE D’ITALIA BOSTON On the occasion of the latest edition of the booklet “Italy Under the Golden Dome,” I would like to congratulate the October Italian Heritage Month Committee for making it available, once again, to all those interested to learn about the wonderful contributions that Italian artists have made to the State House of Massachusetts. In this regard I would also like to avail myself of this opportunity, if I may, to commend the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Hon. William F. Galvin, for the cooperation that he has graciously extended to the Committee in this particular endeavor. Italians and Italian Americans are rightly proud of the many extraordinary works of art that decorate the State House, works that are either made by Italian artists or inspired by the Italian tradition in the field of art and architecture. It is therefore particularly fitting that the October Italian Heritage Month Committee has taken upon itself the task of celebrating this unique contribution that Italians have made to the history of Massachusetts. Consul General of Italy, Boston OCTOBER IS ITALIAN-AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH On behalf of the Committee to Observe October as Italian-American Heritage Month, we are pleased and honored that Secretary William Galvin, in cooperation with the Massachusetts Art Commission and the Doric Docents of the Massachusetts State House, has agreed to publish this edition of the Guide.

  • Biographical Sketch of Minot Pratt by Ray Angelo (2017)
    Biographical Sketch of Minot Pratt by Ray Angelo (2017) Minot Pratt was a Concord worthy of whom relatively little is known, overshadowed by other famous Concordians -- Thoreau, Emerson, Alcott and Hawthorne, who were his friends. He had significant connections to all of these families. Minot was active in town affairs and left behind a noteworthy manuscript on the flora of Concord, so diligently explored by others of his time and afterward. No image of him is known. The closest we have is a description of his appearance in Lindsay Swift’s “Brook Farm” (1900) where he is said to be “one of the most conspicuously attractive inhabitants [of Brook Farm] … large and of fine physique, with strong features, and a modest but dignified mien”. This sketch is an attempt to lift him more into the light for a better appreciation of his admirable life. When Bela and Sophia Pratt welcomed their third child, Minot, into the world in Weymouth, Massachusetts, in the winter of 1805 on January 8th, he was among the seventh generation of Pratts thriving in Weymouth. Bela and Sophia would eventually have thirteen children. All of these were females except -- the oldest child, Ezra (1801-1874), Minot, and a younger brother Bela (1810-1844). The myriad Pratt relatives in Weymouth were all derived from their patriarch, Mathew Pratt, born in 1595 in Aston Clinton, England and who died in Weymouth on August 29, 1672. According to the extensive Pratt genealogy of Mathew Pratt by Francis G. Pratt, Jr. (1890), the Pratt name is from a remote period and has been a common name in England, especially the southern counties.
