They also have pink legs and a pink and white beak with a black tip. Different species of flamingos live throughout the world. The American flamingo is the only one that lives in the wild. It also lives in many Caribbean islands such as the Bahamas and Cuba as well as in northern South America and parts of Mexico. Flamingos live in a habitat of low level water such as lagoons or mudflats or lakes. They are social creatures and sometimes live in large groups of as many as 10 000 birds. The flamingos get most of their food by filtering out the mud and water in their beaks to eat insects and crustaceans like shrimp. They get their pink colouring from the pigment in their food, carotene, which is the same pigment that makes carrots orange. Although we mostly think of flamingos striding in the water, they can fly as well. They have to run to gather speed before they can take off. They often fly in large groups. [Adapted from: www.ducksters.com/animals/flamingo.php] Question 2 1.What colour is the flamingo 2.Whic word in paragraph 1 means the same as “walking”? 3.Whic type of flamingo lives in the wild? 4.Describe the habitat of the flamingo. 5.What do flamingos eat? Give two examples from the text Activity 3 SHORT STORY The Family Vacation One day while Phillip was up in his room playing with his toy trucks, his father walked in. He looked very serious. “Hey, Big Guy,” said Dad, as he sat on his bed. “I’ve got some bad news for you. Do you think you can handle it?” “Yeah, I can handle it,” said Phillip. “What is it?” “We aren’t going to the beach this year,” said Dad. “Why not?” asked Phillip. “Since I lost my job, we just don’t have enough money for extra things,” said Dad. Phillip could tell that his father was really sad about not being able to take the family to the beach. “It’s okay, Dad,” said Phillip. “I didn’t really want to go anyway.” “Liar,” said Dad, as he playfully hit Phillip on the head with a pillow. Phillip and his father had a quick pillow fight. Then his father went out for his afternoon run. After Phillip’s father left the room, Phillip sat on the bed and thought. He thought about how much he was going to miss going to the beach. He would miss staying in a fancy hotel for a whole week, building sand castles, and playing in the beautiful green water. “There has to be something I can do about this,” thought Phillip. Phillip thought for a minute, and then he had a great idea. He remembered his friend Emily and her family had taken a staycation. Emily and her family had found a lot of fun things to do, right in the town of Summerville. Phillip ran down the stairs excitedly. He interrupted his mother, who was sitting at the table paying bills. “Mom, I’ve got a great idea!” exclaimed Phillip. “Well, tell me,” said Mom looking up from her laptop computer. “What is your great idea?” “We should take a staycation,” said Phillip. “What in the world is a staycation?” asked Mom. “A staycation is when you take a vacation in your own city or town,” explained Phillip. “My friend Emily and her family took one a few weeks ago. They did a bunch of cool things, right here in Summerville. They went to the children’s museum, the park, and whole lot of other fun places.” “Well,” said Mom. “That sounds like a great idea. We can start planning it right now.” For the next several hours, Phillip and his Mom used the internet to plan their family staycation. They planned a fun week full of hiking, biking, swimming and much, much more. After they finished planning their staycation, Phillip gave his mother a big hug. “This is going to be the best staycation ever,” said Phillip. “I can’t wait to tell Dad.” Question 3 1.What do you think is a staycation ? 2.What is the main idea of the text? 3.Who are the characters in the story? 4.Which area did Emily and her family find fun activities to do? 5.List the activities Emily did during her staycation. 6.Write a short paragraph about your ideal “staycation”. Activity 4 POEM The cupboard was closed, and the children had gone, There were only the stars in the sky looking on. When up jumped the toys and peeped out at the sky, For they were always awake – when there’s nobody by. The children were far away saying their prayers, So the toys lightly stole down the shadowy stairs, And each said to the other, “We’ll be off, you and I,” For the toys – they can speak, when there’s nobody by. So off to the city they went, two and two, To see if, perchance, any good they could do, To cheer the poor children whose lives are so sad, For the toys always try to make everyone glad. [Adapted by Fred E Weatherly] Question 4 1.Circle the letter of the correct answer. What would be the best title for this poem? A. Joys that children bring B. Sorrow that children bring C.

Eye Juggling: Seeing the World Through a Looking Glass and a Glass Pane. University Press of America: London, and other sources. The Eye Juggler There is an old man, with long, black braids. He stands there, beside that tall cedar tree, singing a song. As he sings that song, what should happen..., his eyes pop out of his head. He continues singing that song and his eyes go up the side of the tree to the top branch. There those eyes look to the east. Then they turn and look to the south. The old man with empty sockets in his head continues that song. From the top of the tree the eyes look to the west. And then the eyes turn once more and look to the north, the fourth direction. As the old man with long, black braids sings that song, who should come along the path there but Coyote, down on his luck. He sees the old man standing there and decides to pay him a visit. He's been out there in those hills a long time. But as Coyote gets a little closer he realizes that there is something odd about this old man. He's seen some strange things out there in those hills but nothing like this. The old man is singing his eyes to the sky! Now Coyote, who's been down on his luck, realizes a good thing when he sees it.

He imagined it looked like haole blood. But it wasn't his or anyone else's. He'd struggled all his life to avoid being labeled a haole. He knew everybody's blood was the same color, though it looked like it could've been spilled from a white man's veins. But the machine didn't bleed, it leaked. Taylor squinted up at the greasy stainless-steel mast of the stand-up fork lift. His forearm shielded his eyes from the drips but blocked his vision, and he brushed the graying blonde strands off his forehead. A tightly banded braid kept his shoulder-length hair from sticking in his moustache and beard like velcro. He rolled his tight neck muscles, shrugged his husky shoulders and stepped out of the machine to get away from the harsh glare of the big halogen light. He figured it must be that hose clamp again.

Observations on the Soil, Climate and Diseases of Liberty County^ Georgia. By John M. B. Hakdex, M. D. Liberty county in Georgia is situated between *31° 38' and 32*^ north latitude and the 4th and 5th degree of longitude west of the meridian of Washington in the District of Columbia. It extends from the Atlantic ocean on the east, where it takes in the Island of St. Catharines, sixty or seventy miles into the interior, where it is connected with Tattnall county on the west. At this latter point it has a breadth of between thirty and forty miles, but at its eastern extremity it is narrowed to a distance of ten or fifteen miles. It is bounded on the north by the Midway river, and partly by the Canouchie, whjch touches it on the northwest, and on the south by the south Newport river, and partly by the Alatamaha, and has a superficial area of nearly 1800 square miles. Soil. —In respect to its soil, Liberty county may be divided into two distinct portions by a line parallel with the sea coast and equi- distant from its eastern and western limits, extending along a ridge of land which is the commencement of what is commonly known as the '' Sandhills," \ From two observations made in,1842,by means of two Gnomons ofmy own construction, I found the latitude of Bulltown swamp, at the southern terminus of the county, to be 31° 38' after making corrections for Sun's semidiameter and horizontal parallax.

  • It's a Circus!
    Life? It’s A Circus! Teacher Resource Pack INTRODUCTION Unlike many other forms of entertainment, such as theatre, ballet, opera, vaudeville, movies and television, the history of circus history is not widely known. The most popular misconception is that modern circus dates back to Roman times. But the Roman “circus” was, in fact, the precursor of modern horse racing (the Circus Maximus was a racetrack). The only common denominator between Roman and modern circuses is the word circus which, in Latin as in English, means "circle". Circus has undergone something of a revival in recent decades, becoming a theatrical experience with spectacular costumes, elaborate lighting and soundtracks through the work of the companies such as Circus Oz and Cirque du Soleil. But the more traditional circus, touring between cities and regional areas, performing under the big top and providing a more prosaic experience for families, still continues. The acts featured in these, usually family-run, circuses are generally consistent from circus to circus, with acrobatics, balance, juggling and clowning being the central skillsets featured, along with horsemanship, trapeze and tightrope work. The circus that modern audiences know and love owes much of its popularity to film and literature, and the showmanship of circus entrepreneurs such as P.T. Barnum in the mid 1800s and bears little resemblance to its humble beginnings in the 18th century. These notes are designed to give you a concise resource to use with your class and to support their experience of seeing Life? It’s a Circus! CLASSROOM CONTENT AND CURRICULUM LINKS Essential Learnings: The Arts (Drama, Dance) Health and Physical Education (Personal Development) Style/Form: Circus Theatre Physical Theatre Mime Clowning Themes and Contexts: Examination of the circus style/form and performance techniques, adolescence, resilience, relationships General Capabilities: Personal and Social Competence, Critical and Creative Thinking, Ethical Behaviour © 2016 Deirdre Marshall for Homunculus Theatre Co.
