Sand Lake School's February Newsletter
Sand Lake 3600 Sand Lake Road Holmen, WI 54636 School’s (Voice) 608.781.0974 Fax) 608.781.2809 (Web) February www.holmen.k12.wi.us Natalie Morgan, Principal Newsletter [email protected] From the principal’s desk… Brrrr! Winter has arrived. Please keep that in mind when sending your child to school each day. If the temperature is one degree or above, studentsetter DO go outside for recess. Also, there are times when students are outside – waiting for the bus, going to and from the car before and after school to name a few. Boots, hats, gloves, snow pants and a winter coat are all priorities this time of year! We have recently passed the mid-point of the school year and I hope that to this point it has been a successful one for you and your child(ren). Students and staff have been working hard. Our assessments are complete and you should have received your child’s report card. If you have any questions – please feel free to reach out to your child’s teacher. Technology has changed the way that we all live our lives. Social networking (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), cell phones, instant messaging, and texting have allowed each of us to conveniently and instantaneously communicate. Cyber bullying has seen a rapid rise in school-aged children throughout the country, and unfortunately, seldom does a day go by without hearing these stories in the media. Although we do not allow this sort of communication here at school with students, we have seen students come to school upset about something that was posted from home. -

Arboretum Elementary School October 2018 Courage
Arboretum Elementary School October 2018 Ms. Sheila Weihert, Principal 1350 Arboretum Drive Waunakee, WI 53597 608-849-1800 Extension 1 - Attendance [email protected] Extension 2 - Health Office Extension 3 - School Counselor Extension 4 - Principal Extension 5 - Food Service Extension 0 - Office Courage In October, students and staff at Arboretum Ele- mentary will be focused on the character trait courage. Parents can talk with their children about courage to reinforce what we are doing at school. We ask children to have the courage to invite oth- ers into games during recess or stand up for some- one that might be excluded. It takes a lot of thought and courage for an elementary student to stand up for themselves or others. Ask your child about how they use courage at school, home, and out and about with friends.

Controlling the Spreadability of the Japanese Fan Comic: Protective Practices in the Dōjinshi Community
. Volume 17, Issue 2 November 2020 Controlling the spreadability of the Japanese fan comic: Protective practices in the dōjinshi community Katharina Hülsmann, Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf, Germany Abstract: This article examines the practices of Japanese fan artists to navigate the visibility of their own works within the infrastructure of dōjinshi (amateur comic) culture and their effects on the potential spreadability of this form of fan comic in a transcultural context (Chin and Morimoto 2013). Beyond the vast market for commercially published graphic narratives (manga) in Japan lies a still expanding and particularizing market for amateur publications, which are primarily exchanged in printed form at specialized events and not digitally over the internet. Most of the works exchanged at these gatherings make use of scenarios and characters from commercially published media, such as manga, anime, games, movies or television series, and can be classified as fan works, poaching from media franchises and offering a vehicle for creative expression. The fan artists publish their works by making use of the infrastructure provided by specialized events, bookstores and online printing services (as described in detail by Noppe 2014), without the involvement of a publishing company and without the consent of copyright holders. In turn, this puts the artists at risk of legal action, especially when their works are referring to the content owned by notoriously strict copyright holders such as The Walt Disney Company, which has acquired Marvel Comics a decade ago. Based on an ethnographic case study of Japanese fan artists who create fan works of western source materials (the most popular during the observed timeframe being The Marvel Cinematic Universe), the article identifies different tactics used by dōjinshi artists to ensure their works achieve a high degree of visibility amongst their target audience of other fans and avoid attracting the attention of casual audiences or copyright holders. -

Sand Lake School's March Newsletter

March 21st has also been set aside as a conference night for those teachers needing additional time to meet with parents. During your children’s conferences, staff members will be looking for feedback from you regarding how to continue helping your child do their best in school. Teachers will discuss students’ progress (i.e. strengths, daily work habits, assessment results, interactions with classmates, areas for improvement, etc.). Time will also be provided for parents to ask questions. It may be beneficial to discuss your children’s school experiences with your child(ren) prior to the scheduled conference. You may be able to use the information they provide as a means to communicate to the teacher what you feel is going well, as well as what type of assistance your children might need from the staff. Following the conference, please take the time to praise your students’ efforts and assist them in recognizing those areas in which work is needed to continually improve. Because each conference is allotted only fifteen minutes, it is important that we start and end on time. If a conflict arises and you are unable to attend, please contact the school office prior to your scheduled meeting. In addition, we encourage parents to look through the LOST AND FOUND items that will be on display in the cafeteria area. -
Steiff Club Magazine 02/2019 2 Editorial Editorial 3
Steiff Club Magazine 02/2019 2 Editorial Editorial 3 Dear Steiff friends, We have found that our competitions are becoming more and more popular. The number of entrants is constantly growing. Of course, there are some significant differences. For instance, the "Pattern bear" competition in the last issue of the Club magazine was nowhere near as popular as the competition that we staged as part of the advance notice of the Margarete Steiff edition in May. What is always exciting yet hard to answer is the question of what ultimately persuades you, our Club members, to enter a competition. Is it the kind of questions, the prizes on offer, or simply the fact that there may be the occasional additional reminder for the competition? We don't know, but we are already curious to see how many of you enter the competition on page 38. You will probably have to do a little bit of research to find the answers. You could also be a winner if you are devoted to the items in the Margarete Steiff edition. Starting on page 12, you can find out how the “Margarete Steiff Elephant on wheels” came into being, and what charming details make this exclusive piece so special. And once again, I'd like to draw your attention to Steiff's co-operation with National Geographic (page 28). This is a subject that affects us all, and should not be ignored. Along with lots of other information, you'll learn that a Teddy bear once inspired a woman who was to become a best-selling writer to write and illustrate her first book (page 31), and you can immerse yourself in newly-opened "Worlds of Steiff" both at home and abroad (from page 42).
