He picked up a few leaves in his hand and asked the bhikkhus, ‘How do you conceive this, bhikkhus? Which is more, the few leaves that I have picked up in my hand or those on the trees in the wood?’ ‘The leaves that the Blessed One has picked up in his hand are few, Lord; those in the wood are far more.’ ‘So too, bhikkhus, the things I have known by direct knowledge are more; the things that I have told you are only a few. ‘Why have I not told them? Because they bring no benefit, no advancement in the holy life, and because they do not lead to dispassion, to fading, to ceasing, to stilling, to direct knowledge, to enlightenment, to nibbāna. That is why I have not told them. ‘And what have I told you? This is suffering; this is the origin of suffering; this is the cessation of suffering; this is the way leading to the cessation of suffering.

IntroductIon to Lesson PLans These lesson plans are designed to introduce children to the English language using repetition, simple activities, songs and games within a safe ‘circle time’ style environment. The structure and routine of the lessons remains very similar throughout the units. This is important for young children and refugee children who have experienced trauma. This is also important for children who speak different languages to those their teachers speak and to children with special educational needs and behavioural difficulties. The teacher (and assistant/s) should be concentrating on supporting children to develop other very important skills throughout the lesson units. These skills, often referred to by teachers as behaviour for learning, include good sitting (sitting with legs crossed, arms/hands in lap, looking at the teacher, not talking etc), good listening (to the adults and other children), concentration, being kind to each other, following instructions and sharing and taking turns.

  • Corrections to Existing Entries Plus Additions Through 1993
    CORRECTIONS TO EXISTING ENTRIES PLUS ADDITIONS THROUGH 1993. Included here are all corrections to existing entries and text for material issued through 1993 as published in the 1994-97 Supplement as well as corrections which have been realized since that time. Not included are additions from the supplement for material issued 1994 onwards. Many but not all of these corrections have been made when possible to the existing text and entries in the new limited reprint edition. As these corrections are made only in the interest of eliminating outright errors in the original edition and not as any kind of incentive to purchase the reprint even if one owns the first printing, we are presenting this on-line version of the corrections for the benefit of customers of the original edition. It is still the hope to wholly revise and update You Really Got Me into a new and completely up-to-date format but the focus of all efforts now are on completing work on at least an initial volume of the long-promised All Day And All Of The Night, or "Part 2" of this series which will examine the Kinks' career and activities on a chronological day by day basis. This page can also act as a forum for further corrections to the original text if readers have new or improved information to add. All comments and/or corrections/additions should be directed to [email protected] or sent to: Rock 'n' Roll Research Press, PO Box 4759, Rumford, RI 02916. Please take note that annotations in the recent series of Kinks reissues are all extracted from the original edition of this book and in no way represent official record company information--information which was neither made available for the reissues nor which even still exists in the case of the 60s recordings.

But he who looks among their common rooms for the D‘Arcys, Fieldings, and Hechts will search in vain. Chapter 1 Black Candles. The greatness of Carne School has been ascribed by common consent to Edward VI, whose educational zeal is ascribed by history to the Duke of Somerset. But Carne prefers the respectability of the monarch to the questionable politics of his adviser, drawing strength from the conviction that Great Schools, like Tudor Kings, were ordained in Heaven. And indeed its greatness is little short of miraculous. Founded by obscure monks, endowed by a sickly boy king, and dragged from oblivion by a Victorian bully, Carne had straightened its collar, scrubbed its rustic hands and face and presented itself shining to the courts of the twentieth century.
