This bookcontains information about teaching primary school science inthe Northwest Territories with lessons that emphasize language. Thegoals of the unit are to (1) develop students language proficiency;(2) provide opportunities for students to use language inmany different situations and formany different purposes;(3) develop student listening,speaking, reading, writing, and thinking skills includingthe science process skills; and (4) expand student knowledge ofthe science concepts related to the sun, moon, and shadows. Followinga section on resources (picture and a sample activity, and relatedEnglish materials--magazines, lists of children's books aboutbears, teacher's resources, films, etc.), lesson plans forgrades one, two, and threeon four topics (what is light, what makes a shadow, how do shadows change, andsun, moon, and earth) are presented. Activity ideasfor science/social studies, mathematics, languagearts, music/poems/stories, art, physical education/movement, and specialactivities are suggested. Each lesson plan contains the followingsegments--exercises or activities: science concepts, Englishvocabulary, English sentence patterns, English language concepts,special materials required, concept development/languageexposure, language practice, and application. Poems, songs, and stories on this subject concludethe guide. The lessons are appropriatefor students whose first language is English as well as for students who are learning Englishas a second language.

FOREWORD Parents, educators, and students themselves all recognize the importance of 1 anguage in the school curriculum. In order tohave appropriate l anguage programming, students needtohave their experiences, skills, knowledgeand, particularly, the language they bring to schoolidentified and used as the basis for theprogram. Languageprogramsshouldbegin withand build uponthese strengths. Where a chi ld is dominant in a1 anguage other than English, he should be taughtin that language. In many communities in the N.W.T., that means that the language of instruction should beInukti tut or one of the Denelanguages. Students in these communities needto gradual ly learn English as a second language. In instances where students speak a di alect of English uponschool entry, the school 'srole is to respect and makeuse of the language the students bring. The school p rog ram should also help those students extend tnei r English proficiency by learning the languageused in varied communication situations and thelanguage necessary forsuccess with the academic curriculum. The aim of language instruction, where applicable andwhere possible, is to produce bilingual students. Successful bilingual education requiresgood teaching in both languages. For many years northern educators have wrestled with the difficultiesof teaching English with inapp rop ri ate comme rci al materialsfrom the south . Teachers have been requesting assistance with how to most efficientlyand effectively teach English as a second language/di al ect . The Department of Education has determinedthat the Language Development Approach is the most suitableway to meet the needs of ESL/D students. The Department has developed these unitsfor teachers to use in their class rooms. The Department therefore expects teachersto implement these units unless they can identifyand Justifyto their Superintendentsomething more appropriate for their students. ric Col bou me Assistant Deputy Mini ster School s Branch ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Special acknowledgement is made toSarah Kelleherwho developed many of the activity ideas for this unit. A specialnote of thanks to Cor 1 is Robinson for her patience and diligence in typing and retyping the unit. The 1 ate Bonnie Pugh and CathyMcGregor adapted Jim MacDi armid' s Language Development framework which forms the structure for each lesson. Refining the format of and brainstorming activity ideas for the Language Development units involved the assistance of many northern educators.

  • Sermon, January 8, 2017 Rev
    Brant Hills Presbyterian Church: Sermon, January 8, 2017 Rev. Curtis Bablitz “FOLLOW THE LIGHT” People don’t usually follow stars nowadays. We used to do it all the time – sailors on ships, travelers on caravans, they could set a course by the stars above and know they were headed in the right direction, but we don’t really do that anymore. For one thing, you can’t really see the stars anymore from most populated areas, what with all the light pollution, and so we have a hard time recognizing which ones are which, which ones we can trust to follow. If you went camping as a kid, you might have learned the old trick to find the North Star – find the big dipper and follow the cup up to the little dipper and there it is – but good luck actually using the North Star to get anywhere in particular. We don’t follow stars, because now we don’t need to – why follow some twinkling little ball in the sky when you have Google Maps? Of course, Google Maps uses GPS, which depends on a whole system of satellites flying over our heads, thousands of little twinkling little balls in the sky that we follow without even thinking about it, but it’s not really the same thing. We follow satellites, not stars. So you have to give the wise men some credit for this amazing journey they went on, because even by the standards of their day, it was not an easy one. Matthew calls them the Magi, which is a Greek word that refer to Persian astrologers and intellectuals, people who lived in modern day Iran, outside of the Roman Empire.

  • November 29, 2020 First Sunday of Advent
    November 29, 2020 First Sunday of Advent Fr. John R. Rushofsky [email protected] Pastor 412-364-8999 x8112 Pastor’s Perspective Lots Going On! Our long awaited takeout Fish Fry on November 13 was a great success, as you can see from the long line of cars lined up from the Saint Teresa parking lot, at one point all the way to Brandt’s Funeral Home. Congratulations to the Our Lady of Mount Carmel Fish Fry Crew for their hard work. It was a fun evening for all. And while we’re looking at pictures, here’s a couple that were taken on November 18, so by the time you’re reading this, the elevator project will be much further along. What you’re looking at is the base of the shaft that will be almost as high as the church roof. Caissons had to be set deep into the ground because the church itself sits on caissons to prevent settling. The concrete block you see here will be covered by brick that will match the church exterior as much as possible. The elevator car will have its own inner entrance, with a little lobby on both levels so that the elevator itself will not open into the outside on the lower level nor directly into the church on the upper level, which will be located in the back of the church next to the confessionals. In Other News: We now begin Advent, the season of hope. Human beings cannot live without hope. Unlike the animals, we are blessed—or cursed—with the ability to think about the future and to fear our actions to shaping it.

  • Advent Reflections for the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of Arkansas
    Leaning Forward: Advent Reflections for the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of Arkansas We invite you to join us for the next twenty-seven days on a devotional journey through this season of Advent. On the following pages you will find devotional reflections from brothers and sisters across the Arkansas fellowship. The diverse authors of these reflections will challenge us to lean forward this Advent season. We hope you will join us in leaning forward through prayer, reflection, and in the hope of what is to come in Christ. “It is Advent: the time just before the adventure begins, when everybody is leaning forward to hear what will happen even though they already know what will happen and what will not happen, when they listen hard for meaning, their meaning, and begin to hear, only faintly at first, the beating of unseen wings.” (Frederick Buechner) Please take some time each day to read the passages, consider the reflections and questions, and use the guide in your prayers. We are excited to see how the Spirit will lead our CBF of Arkansas community through this devotional guide. Feel free to share this collection with friends and family; we encourage you to forward the PDF file to friends and family, make copies to share with those in your church, or follow the devotional online (website: www.cbfar.org/advent-devotional or Facebook: www.facebook.com/cbfofarkansas). You have an incredible opportunity to journey through this Advent season together with other CBF Arkansans. From Lake Village to Fayetteville, from Jonesboro to Hot Springs, and from Virginia to Slovakia our CBF of Arkansas community is well represented in this devotional.

The one and only record? Well, all right then, by no means, but informed by my ambition to set down my record of the interweaving of the events of those tumultuous years and the impact of the music made in parallel to them, as I lived through the decade then and as I recall it now. Make no mistake, then: this is unashamedly a highly selective rather than a comprehensive account, dictated wholly by my own personal tastes and interests as they were shaped and developed by the consecutive twists and turns of the era.

  • Huntsville Museum Encounters: Lilian Garcia-Roig Catalog & Essay by Peter Baldaia
    October 5 November 30, 2008 This project is made possible in part by a grant from The Alabama State Council on the Arts and through the generous support of Bobby Bradley and Charley Burrus, Greg Gum, The Huntsville Times, Lisa and Alston Noah, and The Women’s Guild of the Huntsville Museum of Art The Encounters series of solo exhibitions is organized by Peter J. Baldaia, Director of Curatorial Affairs of the Huntsville Museum of Art, to highlight outstanding regional contemporary art on cover: Stained Glass Woods, WA (detail), 2007, oil on canvas, 48 x 132 inches overall above: Fall Paths, NH, 2007, oil on canvas, 60 X 144 inches overall opposite: Birch Melt, NH (detail), 2007, oil on canvas, 36 x 48 inches Impassioned Nature: Lilian Garcia-Roig and the Unclaimed Landscape Lilian Garcia-Roig paints the unclaimed landscape with engaging energy and assured bravado. She works in large scale directly on-site, painting for many hours at a time to capture the essence of a particular locale — whether it is the autumn woods of New England, the coastal rain forest of the Pacific Northwest, the palmetto scrub of the Florida Panhandle, or the Appalachian valleys of Northeast Alabama. Garcia-Roig’s aesthetic uniqueness stems in part from her ability to paint traditional subject matter abstractly and expressionistically yet retain the representational quality that her subject matter demands. From a distance, her compositions appear as dense, conventional spaces. Yet up close, they dissolve into active networks of lush pigment ranging from thick, gestural patches to areas of raw canvas.
