    KS2 On The Move Thematic Unit Introduction to Thematic Unit This ICL looks at movement from a very broad perspective. It is mainly based in the subject area of The World Around Us exploring all the strands of History, Geography and Science and Technology. There are also opportunities to explore aspects of Personal Development and Mutual Understanding. In The World Around Us pupils are encouraged to explore the concepts of Interdependence, Place, Movement and Energy and Change Over Time. This unit most obviously addresses Movement and Energy but the other aspects also feature as well. The Key Questions in this unit ask: What makes animals move? … focusing on animal migration and in particular those animals who migrate to and from Northern Ireland. How do we move? … focusing on the biology of human movement – muscles and bones working together. What makes people travel? … taking a look at large scale movements of people now and in the past – invaders, those who left Ireland during the famine and new arrivals in Northern Ireland today. This section links with Personal Development and Mutual Understanding. How do we travel, now and in the past? … looks at different methods of transport and how they have changed over time. How do water, light and energy travel? How do forces affect movement? What is ‘green energy? … looks at the physics behind movement and at the rules for how light and sound travel. Consolidating the Learning in this unit This ICL draws on a huge amount of material as the subject of movement touches on almost every aspect of the World Around Us.

  • Baptize/Baptized Definition of “Baptize”
    BAPTISM/BAPTIZE/BAPTIZED DEFINITION OF “BAPTIZE” EPHESIANS 4:5 = ONE LORD, ONE FAITH, ONE BAPTISM GREEK DEFINITION OF ‘BAPTIZE’ The word ‘baptize’ is a Greek word that has been transliterated into the English language. The English language did not have a word for the Greek word ‘baptize’ so the Greek word was borrowed and put into the English language, retaining its Greek definition. In other words, the translators taught us a Greek word and the Greek words meaning. Baptize is from two (2) Greek words ‘BAPTO’ & BAPTIZO BAPTO -- STRONG'S GREEK DICTIONARY, 911[1] bapto bap'-to 1. a primary verb; to whelm, i.e. cover wholly with a fluid; (by implication) to stain (as with dye): 2. --dip. We see that there are two definitions for the root word ‘bapto’... one is to ‘cover wholly with a fluid’ and the other definition is to ‘dip’There are only three places in the Greek text where the word ‘bapto’ is found and in each case this word was translated into English as ‘dip’. Luke 16:24 (KJV) And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. John 13:26 (KJV) Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. Revelation 19:13 (KJV) And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

  • Fair Housing Information Sheet # 6
    Fair Housing Information Sheet # 6 Right to Emotional Support Animals in "No Pet" Housing Advocates and professionals have long recognized the benefits of assistive animals for people with physical disabilities, including Seeing Eye dogs or hearing dogs that are trained to perform simple tasks such as carrying notes and alerting their owners to oncoming traffic or other environmental hazards. Recent research suggests that people with psychiatric disabilities can benefit significantly from assistive animals, too. Emotional support animals have been proven extremely effective at ameliorating the symptoms of these disabilities, such as depression and post-traumatic stress disorder, by providing therapeutic nurture and support. See Psychiatric Service Animals page for information about other issues and the 2010 definitions of service and companion animals under the ADA, the Fair Housing Act, and Section 504. See also comments filed with the Department of Justice (in 2008) and the Department of Transportation(December 2009) addressing proposed regulations governing the use of psychiatric service animals, described in our December 8, 2009 Action Alert. The Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act protect the right of people with disabilities to keep emotional support animals, even when a landlord's policy explicitly prohibits pets. Because emotional support and service animals are not "pets," but rather are considered to be more like assistive aids such as wheelchairs, the law will generally require the landlord to make an exception to its "no pet" policy so that a tenant with a disability can fully use and enjoy his or her dwelling.

    How To Write a Radio Serial Drama for Social Development A Script Writer’s Manual by Esta de Fossard Population Communication Services Center for Communic ation Programs The Johns Hopkins University School of Public Health This publication was edited, produced, and disseminated by Center Publications: Robert J. Riccio, Executive Editor and Kristina A. Samson, Research and Production Manager. Prepared for the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs with primary support from the United States Agency for International Development under Population Communication Services Project, Cooperative Agreement DPE-3052-A-00-0014-00. Using This Book This book is a practical manual for script writers preparing radio serial dramas for development projects. It will be useful both for novices and experienced script writers who have not yet written drama that educates as well as entertains. So that this book can be used as a course manual, whether in a formal class or for independent study, each chapter begins with a study guide listing learning objectives and expected outcomes and a suggested exercise. How to Write a Radio Serial Drama for Social Development: A Script Writer’s Manual was originally designed to assist script writers working in projects supported by Johns Hopkins University Population Communication Services. For this reason, many of the samples and examples it contains relate to family planning and reproductive health; however, the script writing principles discussed and demonstrated here apply just as well to other development topics. The manual largely concentrates on the practical aspects of script writing, although a prologue summarizes relevant communication theory. For those writers who would like to learn more about theory, a bibliography/references at the end lists key books.
