  • Levers Around the House Page 48
    Grade 7 Page 47 CIBL Levers Around NC Essential the House Standard 7.P.2.4 Throughout the guide teaching tips are in red. Overview Over a few class periods, this three-part activity introduces students to levers and the concept of mechanical advantage. On the first day, before learning about levers, students are presented with nail clipper bases without the lever attached, are asked to use it to cut a nail, and then to draw the tool as-is, labeling the drawing to show where force is applied and where it is used. Next, they receive the clipper lever, assemble it, use it, and learn that the job is easier. They then redraw the clippers with the lever, again showing where force is applied and where it is used. After this exploration, students go through similar steps with scissors. On the next day, students again have clippers, scissors, and their drawings. This time they identify the levers in these objects, measure distances that both ends of the lever travel, and develop some ideas about how the levers might make things easier, including the concept of work. Objectives •Students can explain that levers make it possible to apply more force. •Students can demonstrate the mechanical advantage (increased efficiency) of a lever, using less force over a greater distance to produce more force over a shorter distance. NC Essential 7.P.2.4 Explain how simple machines such as inclined planes, pulleys, levers Science Standards and wheels and axles are used to create mechanical advantage and increase efficiency. Science Background This activity explores ways to do some simple things more easily.

  • 120 Dog Training Videos
    ® 120 DOG TRAINING VIDEOS Visit Our 10,000 Page Website Leerburg.com ED FRAWLEY Meet Ed Frawley’s Ed Frawley Philosophy Owner of Leerburg® on Dog Training Copyright 2005 Kennel and Video I look at people who train dogs and lump them into three main categories. These categories can be placed on a sliding scale. The first category, on the left, is the group of people who beg or bribe their dogs to do something by offering food or toy reward. Don’t get me wrong, I use food and toys in training, but I also use distractions and corrections. These people use neither. The problem with this group is that the dogs often choose not to do what’s asked because they don’t think the reward is worth the task. These dogs end up being pushy, dominant and often antisocial dogs. They are the dogs that are turned in to animal shelters as being unmanageable when in fact they act the way they do as a result of ineffective training. At the other end of the scale, on the right side, is the second category of people. These are trainers who intimidate or force their dogs to do what they want. I call them the old school “yank and crank” trainers. Leerburg® Kennel and Video is owned by Ed Frawley. Ed has owned German Shepherds (GSD) for 45 years. Since 1978 he has bred over They put a choke collar on a dog and force it to do everything. Many 350 litters of German working bloodline GSD’s.

  • A Guide to Pet Products and Grooming. by Wahl
    A guide to pet products and grooming. by Wahl Effective brushing forms the basis of good grooming – usually twice weekly dependent on the breed and coat. The process of brushing and combing will distribute the oils from your dog’s skin throughout the coat. Giving your dog a bath is not an essential element of caring for your dog. However, it is an effective method in removing dead or loose hair, reducing dirt and debris from the coat and improving any unpleasant odours. Regardless of breed, all dogs have claws which grow constantly and may, at times need some attention to prevent discomfort or injury. It is possible to take care of this at home with the correct tools and advice. There are very few dogs that will not benefit from a little trimming at some time in their lives. Trimmers are ideal to cut the hair around the feet and pads or for dogs with long hair around their mouth and chin which needs trimming for hygiene. A well clipped dog not only looks good, but will also be more comfortable in hot weather and less prone to collecting dirt, mud and debris in a long, unkempt coat. ABOUT WAHL Wahl Clipper Corporation has been manufacturing grooming equipment for almost 100 years. An international industry leader for high quality, animal grooming products, our range of clippers and trimmers have been designed and developed to meet the needs of professionals and home users. For pet lovers at home we have a highly successful range of lightweight, quiet clippers and trimmers, durable grooming tools and effective shampoos designed specifically for pet owners and built to last for years.
