With the arrival of fall, football teams are taking the field and fans are filling the parking lots. Tailgates – a favorite American pastime – can become elaborate, expensive events. The TaxSlayer team wants you to have fun cheering on the players while keeping costs in check. Score big with these 10 budget-friendly tailgate tips:
- Search for season-end savings. Visit the campus bookstore or local sporting goods shops at the end of the football season or any big games to take advantage of price cuts after demand drops off. You can often find deals on apparel, games and other tailgating essentials compared to start of the season prices.
- Upgrade to a school booster. Many schools offer better tailgating locations for higher-level booster sponsors. Spend the minimum to get into the tier you want. As a bonus, eligible Booster fees are a tax write off!
- Keep a tailgate toolbox. Pack a toolbox with tailgate essentials. Your gear will be in one place, easy to store in the garage and slip into the car trunk nicely. Toolboxes have plenty of compartments to separate different items without losing anything.
- Tie-dye for the team. Purchasing fan apparel for the family adds up quickly, especially when kids may outgrow clothes by next season. Let kids craft their own gear with tie-dye, fabric markers and puff paint to create custom clothes.
- Find the freebies. Vendors or brands may set up their own tailgates toward the beginning of the season. Many companies and schools will give away t-shirts, hats and other swag to deck yourself out at tailgates. If you get an extra-large shirt, use a Pinterest hack to make a custom tank or t-shirt dress.
- Swap closets. Host a clothing swap party with a few friends to snag plain colored basics that could double as game gear. Focusing on wearing your team's colors will let you keep costs low and create an outfit unique to your style.
- Prep and potluck. Instead of picking up pre-made food platters, create tailgate treats at home. For even more savings, make the tailgate a potluck and invite each friend to bring a dish or snack.
- Think reusable versus disposable. Stop using plastic or disposable dishes and silverware, which can add up throughout the season. Bring reusable plates, bowls, plastic cups and silverware. A large tub can help you haul the dirty dishes home.
- Keep it hot. No need to buy an expensive portable warming oven when you can create your own using a spare cooler. Wrap unglazed bricks in foil, then heat them for 45 minutes at 400 degrees. Line the bottom of the cooler with wet tea towels, place the bricks on top and follow with another layer of hot towels.
- Create a no-cost cooler. Take a case of your favorite beverage and empty it out. Line the empty box with two garbage bags to prevent leaking, then layer in ice and drinks. Plus, you won't have to lug home a cooler home from the game!
Don't forget the 2016 TaxSlayer Bowl is Jan. 2 at Jacksonville's EverBank Field. Get your tickets now to watch your favorite SEC team fight for a win versus a team from the ACC, Big Ten or Notre Dame.

Does your dog's breath stink? Does your cat's teeth have a brown coating? These and other signs should trigger you to consider what might be going on with your pet's dental health.
The majority of dogs and cats will develop dental issues sometime in their lives, oftentimes before the age of three. Periodontal disease affects both canines and felines and starts out as plaque, just like with humans. Not dealt with, plaque can lead to gingivitis, which is an inflammation of the gums. Dental health issues can lead to other medical issues. However, also like humans, such conditions can be abated.
Brushing Your Pet's Teeth
Did you know you can brush your dog or cat's teeth? Again like humans, consistent brushing can ward off dental disease.
Specialty toothbrushes, including finger brushes, and flavored toothpastes are created for pets. You can find these at many pet supply stores or your veterinarian. Don't use people-oriented brushes or pastes – they can harm your pet.
Gradually introduce brushing to your animal, over the course of several days, even weeks. Cats especially dislike new things, like toothbrushes! Therefore, be patient but persistent – and gentle.
Brush your dog or cat's teeth a few times a week and brush on the outside only. Praise your pet throughout the endeavor.
Why is Pet Dental Health Important?
A pet's dental health isn't just about teeth and gums; periodontal disease can affect your pet's overall health. Kidney and liver disease can result from bacteria flowing from the mouth through the animal's bloodstream. Sepsis can set in from blood infections. Your pet's heart can also be negatively impacted from poor dental health, and in particular in small dogs, bone infections can develop.
With cats, an erosion in the tooth called feline resorptive lesions (FRLs) is fairly common, in both young and old kitties. According to International Cat Care, more than 70% of cats five years and older have at least one FRL. "The cause of FRLs is unknown but cells called odontoclasts (which break down the substance of the tooth) are found in the erosions," according to the website.
February is National Pet Dental Health Month. Keep your pet's mouth and teeth healthy and you'll also keep him/her healthier overall!

North Huron SADD learns life lessons in mock trial
The students, with some help from various officials, put on a mock trial recently at the high school. The trial was about a fictitious situation in which a teenage driver was being prosecuted for driving under the influence. The driver had been in a non-fatal rollover accident that injured another teenage passenger. The fictitious accident happened on prom night.
While many of the parts in the mock trial were played by students, various officials also played important parts: Huron County Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Gerald Prill played the part of the judge; Huron County Prosecuting Attorney Mark Gaertner and Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Liz Weisenbach coordinated the trial and trained the students; and attorney Dave Herrington and Huron County Sheriff's Office Deputies Ryan Swartz and Randall Britt provided assistance.
This is the first time the students did a mock trial, said SADD co-advisor Mary Ann Kelly. Sharry Nesbit is the other co-advisor for the group.
Kelly said the goal of the mock trial is to warn the students about the dangers of drinking and driving.
"We like to do something cautionary right before prom season," she said. "The students were very respectful and attentive. They took it seriously. They thought it was useful and it seemed to make an impression on them."
She noted that the students did a very good job of acting out their parts.
"It was academy award material," she said. "They were wonderful."
Fourteen students participated in the mock trial. Jessi Pratt and Brittany Brinkman played prosecuting attorneys; Melissa Roberts and Anastasia Nienaltowski played defense attorneys; Melissa Zarodkiewicz played a police officer; Becca Nesbit played an eye witness; Shannon Scott played a car passenger; and Tricia Maxwell played the defendant. The jury members were Rosemary Rice, Victoria Osantoski, Beth Korleski, Heather Miller, Jessi Teague, and Aubrey Selaty.

#77 Trinton Sturdivant, LT
6-5, 305, Wadesboro NC (Anson HS), RS Soph.
Sturdivant was an early commitment to the Dawgs in 2006, picking UGA over a number of big programs, including Miami, Notre Dame, Penn State, USC, Clemson and Florida. He was penciled in as the starter at left tackle early in the summer before his true freshman season, which understandably made a few Dawg fans a little nervous. Sturdivant made a big splash that year, starting every game at left tackle and being named to just about every freshman All-American team. A devastating knee injury before the 2008 season caused him to miss the entire year, but he should be back in 2009.
Depth Chart Analysis: The loss of Sturdivant last year prior to the season was a big blow for the Dawgs. The offense ended up being OK statistically, but psychologically it seemed to just get the season off on the wrong foot. Hopefully his return will have the opposite effect in 2009. If he's healthy, he's the firm starter to protect Joe Cox's blindside and should have a big year. Sturdivant has first round NFL pick written all over him.

You know, I really think you hit on something with the psychological blow the offense took when Trinton went down last year. Boy did we hit OL homeruns in recruiting with 77, Boling and Jones.

One of Australia's most renowned native animals is the deadly brown snake. The venomous reptile is one of many lethal creatures that inhabit our contrasting landscapes but it is certainly the most frequently encountered. Brown snakes can be found all across Australia which is why every Australian should know how to provide snake bite First Aid.
The brown snake has made headlines recently for making an out-of-season appearance across Australia. Although currently in the final month of winter the nation has seen warmer and drier weather across the board and snake sightings are quickly increasing around the country.
There are up to 100 species of venomous snakes throughout Australia that have the ability to cause moderate to severe symptoms from a snake bite. Because of this all snakebites must be treated seriously. With Australian snake season making an early debut it's important that if you're planning an outdoor adventure or live in a snake prone area you are equipped and have the knowledge to provide snake bite First Aid if the need arises.
Venomous Snake Bites
The brown snake is the most well-known and commonly sighted snake in Australia. However, it is just one of 10 highly dangerous snakes which live across the nation. Other deadly Australian snakes include the Taipan, Tiger Snake, Death Adder, Copperhead, Mulga Snake and Small-eyed Snake.
It is unreasonable to expect every person to be able to identify every type of snake that lives in Australia. Because of this, whenever a snake strikes the bite should always be treated seriously.
Even if it is not clear whether or not the snake successfully released venom you must always treat the snake bite seriously as snake bites in Australia can be fatal.
Dry Snake Bites
Evidence shows that venom is not successfully release in more than 90% of incidents when a person is bitten by a snake. This is known as a 'dry bite'. Although no venom is injected dry bites are still painful and will cause swelling and redness in the area the bite occurred.
As you can never be certain that a snake has not released its venom you must always treat a snake bite as if venom has been injected.
When a snake successfully injects venom through a bite, it will travel through the lymphatic system to the bloodstream. From here it can have serious consequences on the nerves and muscles which can then cause paralysis.
If a person collapses from a snakebite and does not seem to be breathing you must immediately provide CPR.
Snakebites do not always cause visible signs and symptoms. The onset of symptoms may also be delayed so if a snake bite occurs always seek medical assistance.
2. Lay the casualty down and provide reassurance
3. Apply a pressure immobilisation bandage:
4. Splint the bandaged limb
5. Ensure the patient remains still
6. Call triple zero (000) for medical assistance
7. Record the time the bite occurred and when the bandage was applied
8. Wait with the casualty, monitor and record any changes in their condition
Throughout snake season you must always be aware of your surroundings – don't walk in long grass, check your shoes if left outside and always look when walking through shrubbery. Snakes generally only bite humans if they are provoked, so if you sight a snake, steer clear and stand still to avoid aggravating the reptile.
Snake bites can be distressing if you are not prepared or are not confident in providing snake bite First Aid. Although some of the most poisonous snakes in the world inhabit Australia's backyard, it's important to remember that dying from a snake bite is extremely rare so always remain calm and provide reassurance to the casualty.
By following our snake bite First Aid tips you can guarantee this season you will be ready if a snake strikes.

Until Dawn came out for the PlayStation back in August and surprised (even scared) people into submission. Many of my friends and colleagues picked up the title out of pure intrigue, as no one really knew what to expect from a first party title that just somewhat came out of nowhere.
But! With the success the game received, we all felt like there would be more to this story than just a one off title. And guess what? We were right! Because today at the Paris Games Week Conference, Sony unveiled Until Dawn: Rush of Blood for PlayStation's new VR machine coming next year.

Kendra's Sex Tape To Be Released Tomorrow Due To Popular Demand! She's Already Made $680,000!
Whatever 'pain' Kendra Wilkinson is feeling will surely be assuaged by her first, secret payment from Vivid Video … a shocking $680,000!
With her first adult-video star turn — Kendra Exposed — Kendra Wilkinson has already raked in a huge payday, and is set to make much, much more. In fact, pre-orders for the tape are the highest in the history of Vivid Entertainment, forcing them to move up the release date to tomorrow!
RadarOnline.com reports that Kendra got her first check for the tape — an incredible $680,000 — and that's just a fraction of what she'll get from the actual sales of the DVD, which adult-video industry sources say could be the biggest selling sex tape vid ever. And there's much more Kendra to sell, apparently: There are as many as 20 sex tapes and "tens of hours" of content available. The tape is set to surpass Kim Kardashian Superstar in sales, the former bestselling celeb sex tape!
Her ex-boyfriend Justin Frye sold the tapes to Vivid Video for $100,000, and a smaller percentage of sales.
And remember last week, we heard about how there are other women involved in other tapes: Radar Online reported that yet another tape features Kendra and a woman named Taryn using "sex toys" and that they have seen "further still images of Kendra, in which she is pictured straddling a second, scantily-clad woman who is wearing skimpy lingerie."
As we told you yesterday, Kendra stands to make millions off the sale of the tape, something that may make the embarrassment far more bearable for her and husband Hank Baskett Jr.
Radar has also learned that Kendra's partner in the first tape, Justin Frye, is a "newlywed who lives in Arizona and also works in the construction business." Kendra, 24, started dating Justin, who is now 28, when she was in high school and before she became a Playmate. Justin made a reported $100,000 upfront payment for the tape and will share in the profits, from which Kendra will make 50%.

Well, it's happening.
My time at Asbury Seminary is drawing to a close. Today was the last day of class for my IT501 class, otherwise titled: "Technology in Ministry." I've spent the past week learning about how to take good photos, done some video recording, and editing (poorly, I might add!), and brushed up on my PowerPoint skills.
Technology in Ministry
But what really interested me came not at the end of the week, but what we started class with.
We began, not with the technical, or the practical, but with the ethical. We started class, asking two very basic questions:
- What does technology do for us?
- What does technology do to us?
The basic idea being that for those of us who serve in a variety of ministry roles should not be quick or hasty to rush out and buy the latest piece of technology (whatever that may be), and try to build a technological arsenal that can "wow" those we serve as well as those we are trying to reach.
Instead, we need to think carefully about what technology we can, or even should add to our ministries. The end all be all is not, as some might suggest, to be on the "cutting edge" of technology, but instead, to enhance and expand our ministry to be able to further build the kingdom here in our corners of the world.
One small piece of wisdom that really resonated with me this week was: "As ministers, we are called to redeem technology," and I think that it's true.
I know that I struggle with starting at my smartphone way too much in general. So, I'm trying to take small steps to limit the time that I stare at it. Especially on my day off.
I'm also starting to explore different mediums for connecting with people outside of my congregation, but who are in my community. Technology can be a beautiful thing. Indeed, it was invented by people who are children of God, and as such, can be used for redemptive purposes. I know of several people who use their blogs/ social media platforms/ etc to that end. People like Tim Fall, April Fiet, Sarah Bessey, and many others who are seeking to use technology as a medium to bring redemption, grace, and hope to the world.
So here's my question:
What does this look like for you?
Leave a comment down below, I'd love to hear your insight.

We followed in the footsteps of Stone Age people when we hunted and gathered our food, built shelters and discovered how to make fire. We became archaeologists when we looked at evidence of Stone Age life through cave paintings. We really got to grips with the understanding of what evidence is, by solving an artefact mystery.
We did some 'Plantastic' work last half term, linking many areas of the curriculum!
We wrote dragon-themed poems to get our creative juices flowing. This led on to the children writing fantastic stories based on our class reading texts: George and the Dragon and The Boy Who Grew Dragons. We also explored data bases by sorting dragons according to different criteria.
Romans week involved exploring the Boudicca/ Romans battle in depth, which developed the children's empathy with an event in the past. In addition to the taught sessions on different aspects of Roman Britain, groups carried out their own research on an area of particular interest to them, and practised their presenting skills by feeding their reports back to the rest of the class.
The dinosaur and shell fossils we made effectively followed on from our science work on rocks and fossils. Children can paint these at home or in golden time or leave them to look more natural.
We researched France to help an imaginary French family learn more about their country - other than the city in which they live – Paris.
We produced reports with a 'showstopper' feature page and advised the family as to what they might like to see if they ventured beyond Paris.
The topic culminated in a French Café session, in which the children sampled a range of the food they had learned about.
We loved our visit to Madina Masjid Mosque as it allowed the children to link their learning in school with community life, especially for those who do not visit a mosque regularly.
The children searched a cave, with a real cave woman, to discover the different hunting tools and objects that Stone Age people used. Then they tracked various animals that were found in the area 10,000 years age such as wolves, reindeer, woolly rhino and bears. After tracking and catching a reindeer, the children started a fire by rubbing 2 sticks together so they could cook their lunch. Finally, they became archaeologists to uncover artefacts left buried in the ground. See our pictures in the gallery.
Last half term, we took the Y3 children to the Botanical Gardens in Sheffield. They had the chance to see some amazing plants that enabled them to design fantastical plants of their own.
They then wrote letters to 'Mrs Berry', who manages a seed production factory, to persuade her to manufacture seeds which would grow into the plant they designed.
In science, we grew a range of seeds, investigated what plants need in order to survive and studied the functions of different parts of a plant.
Studying artists who loved to paint flowers, such as Georgia O'Keeffe, Vincent Van Gogh and Marianne North, allowed the children to work in the style of a famous artist. The pictures show the children developing a painting by following colour schemes and shapes, then creatively expanding them.
We have been busy in Y3 this half term, from fighting dragons in our literacy lessons to digging deep to find the hidden remains of a long lost civilisation. We recreated the fossilisation process in one afternoon, which normally takes millions of years. Look at the fossil tiles we made and incorporated into a colourful mosaic. On one day, we even became Roman generals and Celtic warriors!
We have been learning all about France this half term. We had a french cafe where we were able to sample a range of french food.
Life in the Stoneage
Y3JH designed an experiment to find out if they could get colour from fruit and charcoal to use for cave paintings. They then used rock powders to see if they could make colours with them. They successfully made black, brown, beige and grey by mixing the powder with a gluey water. This 'paint' was then used to colour their own cave paintings, which were finished off with charcoal detail.
Y3AM have created a herd of Stone Age mammoths using milk cartons and collage materials, so although they became extinct thousands of years ago, you may still see some roaming around!
In Maths, we have done lots of work on place value, addition and subtraction. We have explored variation by using one fact to work out lots more facts! We have been focussing on explaining our mathematical strategies and conjectures.
Look out for pictures from our Stone Age Experience Day…to follow.
Welcome to your child's new class!
Class teachers in Y3 are Andy McCready and Jo Hollands. Teaching assistants are Lisa Burley in Y3AM and Michelle Montgomery in Y3JH.
Our work this half term is based around Life in Stone Age Times and we will link as many areas of learning as possible around that theme in order to make the children's understanding of different subjects meaningful and relevant.
If you have any questions at any time, please take the time to see us.
Please click on the newsletter for more information about this half term.
On Monday 12th June Y3 went on a trip to a local wild flower habitat called Gully's Meadow. We took part in five different nature based activities with help from the Woodland Rangers.
We used binoculars for bird watching, giant nets to sweep for mini-beasts and hammers to create art by leaf bashing. The trip was great fun!
In Y3 we have been studying the work of different artists. This week we invited in local artist, Joe Scarborough, to talk to our classes about his life and his art. Afterwards, the children had an opportunity to create their own picture in his style, focusing on bold colour choices and attractive tone combinations. The children all had a great afternoon and we thank Mr Scarborough for his time.
Here are some photos from the Y3 visit to the local area. The pupils enjoyed using the playground equipment in our two local parks to investigate forces in action. As you can see there were plenty of pushes and pulls on display for us to discuss!
We were lucky enough to have warm sunny weather all morning as we explored the area around the school, discussing land use and building types.
Y3 have been learning about plants as part of our science topic. In literacy, we set up our own seed companies and have written reports about imagined magical plants that we grew after a mysterious package of seeds was sent to our school. We wrote letters to companies to ask for seeds and the mystery package gave us more than we bargained for! We also produced seed packets and posters to tell people about our magical plants, investigating and using marketing skills to attract customers.
We finished our topic off with a wonderful treasure hunt in the Botanical Gardens. The children were divided into 5 groups and had to use maps to find 10 objects, building, plants and sculptures in the gardens. We also used iPads to collect images as part of our treasure hunt. The children and grown-ups had a delicious ice cream before we came back and everyone agreed that it was a great day out. We will be writing recounts so we remember our special day out.
See the documents for more information on how you can enrol your child on one of the following music and singing courses.
In year 3 we have been learning all about the Stone Age. Both classes have created a modern three course menu using ingredients that Stone Age people would have used. We also used our knowledge of Stone Age art to create an art gallery. We have loved finding out about the Stone Age people who lived in Britain thousands of years ago. We hope you enjoy looking at our work.
In Year 3 we have been learning about cycling and how it benefits the environment and why it is a good idea for people to use bikes. Every child wrote a report about bikes. We did research using books, the internet and video clips. We then made notes which we used to create our reports.
We studied the features of a report and used a checklist to make sure that we used the features correctly. Our reports contained the following sections
Contents page
Bike safety
History of bikes
Benefits of bikes
Cycling is a really interesting topic and our finished work is on display in our Key Stage 2 entrance hall at school. We also have an identical display in the school library.
In Y3SC we worked as a team of poets to write this Autumn poem. It includes a range of expressive Autumn language and it rhymes.
Orange leaves flying in the fresh air,
Sharp twigs snapping everywhere
Old grumpy trees feeling tired,
Falling wet leaves have retired
Booming fireworks shooting in the sky,
Fiery bonfire flames swirling up high
Toffee apples munched by joyful children,
Nocturnal creatures hide in cosy dens
Blood sucking vampires knocking on doors,
Zombie-like adults fall to the floor!
Creepy bats swoop out of sight,
Wolves howl in the moon light
By Y3SC
In Y3RG we have been learning about simile poems and we have written a class poem together to describe a mystical scene. We hope that you like it.
The Howling Moon
The mysterious wolf calls to the shimmering moon.
As the wind rushes by, it carries the howl across the silent heavens.
Like sharp, sparkling diamonds, the stars illuminate the sky.
The mist curls around the trees like the remains of a dead ghost.
Two gigantic snowballs have been thrown into space.
Y3RG's Simile Poem

We hope you had a peaceful and relaxing break over the summer holidays. The start of a new term is really exciting and we look forward to helping your child make a smooth transition into Key Stage 2.
There are lots of new routines to learn for the first time we now have a teaching assistant working in every classroom so there will be additional support on hand. In Year 3, we also have a school based student, Miss Hill, working with us for the academic year which will increase the adult ratio even further.
During this term we will be working with the children to help them become more independent and purposeful learners. Every child has a job to do within the classroom and the focus on teamwork and helping each other is an ongoing theme throughout the year. The first term of the school year really goes quickly so we aim to make every lesson count as we continue to develop our teaching within the new curriculum.
Mr Cotton, Mr Green, Miss Hill, Miss Burley and Mr Holland.
Summer 2 2015
In Year 3, we have been learning about different plants and what they need to help them to grow. Each class conducted an experiment to find the best conditions for a seed to grow, and found that a generous amount of sunlight and giving the plant a small amount of water each day helped the plant to become tall and healthy.
This term we went on a trip to the Sheffield Botanical Gardens, where we spent time exploring the gardens and discovering different plants. We spent time looking at lots of exotic plants, such as cacti and a beautiful Bird of Paradise flower! We also did a treasure hunt in teams where we had to find different landmarks, statues and even a BEAR! It was a tiring but fun day and we ended the day with an ice cream in the sunshine.
Here's what some of the children had to say about the trip:
'My favourite part was doing the treasure hunt. I liked it because we could explore.' – Abdul
'I liked the Bird of Paradise plant because it was bright and colourful.' – Aamina
'My favourite thing was the treasure hunt because we found interesting plants and flowers.' – Marya
'My favourite part was scaring Mr Akram's group because Mr Akram went 'Aarghhhhh!' when he saw the bear.' – Hajrah
'My favourite part was going to the bronze bear statue because Miss Fray's group scared us and we thought it was a real bear!' – Sami
'I liked when we ate the ice cream it was yummy and it was fun doing the treasure hunt.' – Hajira
'I like the hunt because it involved map reading.' – Mustafa
'My favourite part was the pond because we saw some tadpoles.' - Nadir
In the Summer term, local artist Joe Scarborough visited Y3. He talked about his life as an artist and about the things that inspire him to paint. The children then worked with Mr Scarborough to colour in a drawing that he had given them. The children had a great time and learned a lot about colour selection and artistic techniques. Here are some photos of our time with Mr Scarborough.
This term, Year 3 have been earning about life in Ancient Britain, exploring the daily habits of the Celtic people, as well as finding out about the Roman invasion of Britain.
Did you know, although there were 10,000 Roman soldiers and a massive 100,000 Celt tribespeople fighting over the British land, the Romans were more organised and better trained so were able to defeat the Celts!
We have been undertaking some research about the Celts and Romans, writing newspaper reports retelling the dramatic events of the battle as well as practising letter writing and postcard skills too. We have also created some clay thumb pots using designs found in archaeological discoveries of Roman pottery.
Later in this term we will be finding out about how Romans have changed our lives and how they have affected us, as well as learning about Roman numbers and traditions. At the end of this topic we will be working in teams to create group presentations of facts we have found about the Romans.
Please look at our work on display in the school library and around the Year 3 base.
In Y3RG we have been finding out about France. One of the regions that we looked at is the Alps.
We used our senses and imagination to write a class poem about what it would be like to be in the mountains.
In The Mountains
Snow falls like rice on the shivering animals.
It covers the mysterious mountains like a white carpet.
In the valley below, people scurry like ants.

In Y3RG the children have written a snowball poem where each line has one more word than the previous one. In some ways it is easy because you know how many words to write, but in other ways it is hard because you really have to think about each sentence carefully.

Spring 1
Bonjour! In Year 3, we have enjoyed learning French and this term we have been finding out some fantastic facts about France! We have been finding out about where France is on a world map, how different areas of France are different to Sheffield, as well as discovering lots of interesting places to visit in Paris!
We have been writing up our research into information leaflets (which will be on display in the KS2 foyer soon), selecting our most interesting facts and pictures.
Here are some of Y3JW's favourite France facts.
Hassan: Notre Dame Cathedral took 200 years to build!
Fatimah: The Eiffel Tower is 324m high!

This term in Literacy, Year 3 have been learning about speech and dialogue and how it differs between stories and plays. On Friday 14th November Y3JW had their class assembly and were able to present some of their work and even perform a short play based on Aesop's fable 'The Fox and the Goat.' They had lots of fun and worked hard to use big voices!
Since it was Children in Need Day, we had lots of superheroes to help us out too! A big thank you to the parents that attended and to Mr Akram for making an amazing model well for the play!
In Y3RG we have been learning about simile poems and we have written a class poem together to describe a mystical scene. We hope that you like it.
The Wolf And The Moon
The moon is like a football that has been kicked from outer space.
Like a giant iceberg, it floats in a sea of glowing stars.
The stars are as bright as the Summer sun on a black velvet blanket.
King Wolf howls like thunder at the haunting moon.
As black as a witch's cat, the terrifying trees attract the mist like creepy magnets.
Hello Year 3! Welcome back! I hope you all had a lovely summer and are feeling refreshed and ready to learn.
I am excited to be your new teacher and look forward to teaching you lots of fun lessons. This term will be learning about forces, France, faith and lots of other fantastic things!
I know this will be a great year, but do please let me know if you have any worried throughout the year – I am happy to help!
Miss Whittington – Y3JW
It's great to be starting another year of teaching with a new class of children. It is a big leap from Year 2 to Year 3 but the children soon become more independent and seem to develop in so many
ways. Mr Akram and I are looking forward to working with all the children and helping them on their learning journey over the next school year. We are committed to supporting every child to be the
best that they can be and giving them the belief to achieve their goals.

Davis & Floyd Founder Emmett I. Davis, Jr. Inducted into South Carolina Business Hall of Fame
Earlier this month, Emmett I. Davis, Jr., one of the founders of Davis & Floyd, was inducted into the South Carolina Business Hall of Fame along with Patrick W. McKinney, former partner of Kiawah Partners, and the late James M. Smith, Sr., founder of JM Smith Corporation.
Over the last 33 years, the Junior Achievement of Greater South Carolina has inducted more than 100 business leaders across the state into the Hall of Fame. The honorees, called Laureates, are chosen for their unique contribution to the state's business landscape, for being an agent of positive change, for their leadership, and for being a source of inspiration to the leaders of tomorrow.
"I am truly honored for this recognition and thankful that the wonderful people at Junior Achievement consider me worthy of being a part of this group who have done such great things for our state," said Davis.
"Laureates of the Hall of Fame are pillars in their community and known for their integrity, leadership, innovation, and business achievement, and Emmett Davis epitomizes all of that and much more," said Casey Pash, president and CEO of Junior Achievement of Greater South Carolina.
Davis and business partner Phil Floyd started the company in 1954. Over the last 63 years, Davis & Floyd has grown from a two-man start up to the largest, privately-owned engineering firm located in the state with 175 employees and five offices in Charleston, Columbia, Florence, Greenville, and Greenwood. As a multi-disciplined firm, Davis & Floyd works throughout the Southeast and has been involved in some of the state's largest and most challenging projects, including the Conway Bypass, recovery of the Civil War submarine The Hunley, and ongoing drainage tunnel projects in downtown Charleston to name a few. Although officially retired, Davis serves as chairman of the board and is still seen most days in his office in Greenwood, when he is not visiting job sites.
Davis has been recognized as a leader in his industry and within the community. He is active in various professional societies including the American Society of Civil Engineers and American Council of Engineering Companies, which awarded him the Service to the Profession award in 2008. He was awarded The Order of the Palmetto by the SC governor, the Presidential Medallion from Piedmont Technical College, and Palmetto Medal by The Citadel Board of Visitors.
Other memberships include Tau Beta Pi's "Eminent Engineers" (The Citadel); Citadel Society of 1842; Citadel Foundation Campaign Steering Committee; Lander University Foundation; Chi Epsilon-Clemson Chapter; SC Historical Society (former president); and Greenwood County "Hall of Fame". He is a Life Trustee of the Independent Colleges and Universities of South Carolina Foundation as well as director emeritus of Countybank, Greenwood.
His former leadership roles include director of United Telephone Company; former member and chairman of the Self Regional Healthcare Hospital Board; director of Self Family Foundation; member of Clemson University Engineering Advisory Board; director/president of The Citadel Development Foundation; and board member/chairman of Erskine College. He received an Honorary Doctor of Engineering from The Citadel and Honorary Doctor of Science from Erskine College. He graduated from The Citadel in 1950 with a bachelor's degree in civil engineering.
An Elder in the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church, Greenwood, Davis was married to Mona Ruth Looper (deceased) and has three children: Emmett I. Davis, III, Rebecca Ruth Davis Flack, and Stephen Looper Davis as well as five grandchildren.

KaBOOM! CEO Darell Hammond wrote in the Huffington Post this week on the lack of recess in schools, and pointed out things parents can do to change the situation. Here's a snippet:
"The physical activity and social interactions gained from free play is essential to the healthy physical, emotional and cognitive development of children. It is imperative that we allow our children daily recess time to run, jump, swing - and learn. Join me, KaBOOM! and the many others in the movement for play as we continue to rally communities across the country to save recess in our schools."

Everyone on Twitter Was Just as Excited as You Were That Leonardo DiCaprio Won an Oscar
Twenty-two years and five Academy Award nominations later, Leonardo DiCaprio is finally an Oscar winner thanks to his impressive turn in The Revenant. His big win was arguably one of the most exciting moments of the night with fans and celebrities alike taking to Twitter to congratulate the star for finally being recognized.
As soon as Julianne Moore announced his name in the Best Actor category, social media went wild. More than 440,000 tweets per minute were sent out surrounding DiCaprio's win, making it the most-tweeted about minute of an Oscars broadcast ever—beating the previous record of 255,000 tweets per minute when Ellen DeGeneres posted her epic selfie in 2014.
The buzz surrounding his win was not lost on DiCaprio. During his speech he said: "I do not take this moment for granted"—a sentiment he later echoed in the press room. "It all feels incredibly surreal," he told reporters. "This year in particular I've been overwhelmed with such support. Really, truly, by so many fans and so many people in the industry. It's quite shocking, actually. What can I say, except that I'm really grateful? I really am."

How to Control OTAs Rates & Availability
Using a rate type, you can control the price, rooms, and dates that you choose to share with the Online Travel Agents (OTAs) that you partner with. For Booking.com and Expedia, we link them to one or more "OTA Rates". Airbnb, you might choose to link them to a separate Airbnb rate, your OTA Rate, or even your Best Available Rate.
Please note that your OTA Rates are not automatically linked to another rate you have in ThinkReservations. When you make changes to your Best Available Rate that you wish to mirror on your OTA Rate, you will need to update the OTA Rate(s) separately.
Once connected to one or more OTAs: rates, restrictions, and availability are synchronized automatically and in near real time. If availability changes, Booking.com, Expedia, and Airbnb will be notified. If a reservation comes in from an OTA, you will see it immediately on your ThinkReservations calendar (and you will be notified about it via email). If prices change on the OTA Rate, they update the OTA.
If a room/date in your OTA Rate does not have a price, then it will show as unavailable or sold out on Booking.com, Expedia.com, and Airbnb. That is how you control whether you want to show availability -- by configuring or removing the price!
Please note: by "removing" the price, I do NOT mean set the price to 0. If you set the price to 0, you are selling it for free. By removing the price, I mean completely leave the box empty.
Updating the Rate(s) Associated with your OTAs
The rate or rates associated with your OTA connections are not automatically updated or tied to other rate types you have in ThinkReservations. This means that you will need to manage them separately but it also means that you don't have to have the same deposit policy, rates, or restrictions that you have already programmed for other rate types. Note that Yield Management rules are rate specific also.
Once you copy your rates and restrictions from another rate type (likely your Best Available Rate) you may choose to then "Simple Select" and then "Modify" what you have just copied to be a certain dollar or percentage amount lower or higher.
► Related: Setting Room Rates
Turning the OTA "on" for certain dates: Set Pricing
2. Click on 'Rates & Restrictions'.
1. Click on Settings -> Rate Types. Click on 'OTA Rate' or 'Bedandbreakfast.com'.
2. Click on 'Rates & Restrictions'.
3. Set prices for dates that you want to be open on the OTA.
To configure large date ranges of your prices, it's easiest to just copy your prices from your Best Available Rate. To do so, select the gray "Copy..." button on the top right.
Choose to copy from your Best Available Rate (4). Choose your dates, select the rooms and days of the week you want (5). Make sure 'Price' is checked under Restrictions (6). Click on "Copy" to copy the rates.
4. You can now adjust the prices or minimums that were just copied over if you wish.
5. Check your work! Click Save on the top right.
Turning the OTA "off" for certain dates: Remove pricing
ThinkReservations recommends that you turn off (or limit your availability) for dates that you anticipate to or historically sell out.
1. Open the rate type that you are syncing to the OTAs. Click on Settings -> Rate Types. Click on 'OTA Rate' or 'Bedandbreakfast.com'.
3. We want to remove prices for dates we want to turn off. To do so, we'll select the dates and then remove the price.
4. Click on 'Simple Select' on the top right. Choose your dates, select the rooms and days of the week you want to make unavailable to the OTAs. Click on Select. This will highlight your selection in blue.
5. Click on Modify on the top right. Chose the circle next to 'Set to' and then DELETE the 0 in the box below. The box should be ENTIRELY empty.
6. Click Update to remove the pricing for the selected rooms and dates.
7. Check your work. Once you are done, click Save on the top right.
A note about the Coupon Code: We use a random coupon code to prevent guests from seeing this rate type on your website. (The only way a guest would see this rate type would be if they entered the exact same random coupon code.) The Coupon Code is found under the QUALIFIER section of the General Information tab of a rate type.

I hit a rare day last week when I couldn't walk outside with the dogs.
Actually, I tried to go to one of our regular places but the parking lot wasn't plowed. It looked like a 50/50 chance of getting stuck in the snow, so I returned home and gave both Pearl and Buzz a dog biscuit, as is my custom after a walk.
Buzz likes the concept – go for a ride, skip the walk and have a treat – just fine. Buzz can sleep near 24/7, waking only to move to a more comfortable spot, to eat and to answer nature's call.
In his next life I hope he's an investment banker.
Young Pearl still craves her walk.
If she doesn't get out she bongs about the house, driving Buzz and me to distraction, so I chased her around the yard for a few minutes.
Because of the recent days of no school due to weather, I've had quite a bit of idle time of late. In the fall I started rebuilding the automatic chicken door closer (AC/DC), but the garage is not heated and much too cold for inventing.
In theory I have free roam of our house, but as a good husband I try to confine my activities to my bedroom office or the garage. Sabra has the senses and skills of a veteran crime scene investigator, and she always knows exactly where I've been if I journey beyond either.
Before the holidays, for example, I got into the closet where we keep suitcases and other miscellaneous gear for vacations. I love to travel and wanted to get a head start on packing for our annual trip to Denver. I like to be ready for anything. One of these years, I keep reminding Sabra, we're going to get stuck in a snowdrift in the middle of Nebraska. Then she'll be glad I tossed in the camp stove, cook set and enough Ramen noodle soup for an army in bivouac. I'll be the hero of I-80, melting snow and cooking up steaming bowls of soup for stranded travelers who might starve to death 30 miles from Ogallala, Neb.
It's a little known historical fact that General George Custer's last words were, "At least we don't have to go through Nebraska."
But I digress.
The point I was trying to make is that all I did was take a peek to check on my acetylene torch (you never know when you'll have to cut through rebar), and Sabra knew the instant she returned home that I'd been in the travel closet. I caught holy you know what for it too. How was I to know that the cats somehow managed to get locked into the closet? How was I to know they'd claw at the carpet the better part of a day to get out? How was I to know I'd mistake their caterwauling for the wind even though it was a dead calm day?
My theory is the little buggers did it on purpose.
They really don't like me much.
For one thing, they resent my attempts to minimize their care while we're gone. Back in my bachelor days, I'd often leave my cat Rogue, adopted as a stray, untended for up to four days. Before going I'd treat him with the tastiest wet foods so he'd eat his fill. Then I'd cut open a 25 pound bag of dry food and set out a large pan of water. A couple extra litter boxes later, I'd be ready to hit the road.
I don't think he even noticed I was gone.
In a previous life, I think he was a hedge fund manager.
Sabra's Conan and Meow, on the other hand, must be fed their carefully measured ration of kibble twice a day, lest the little darlings eat themselves into furry basketball-sized dumplings with legs. For fear that their highnesses have to waddle about untidy Fresh Step, their box also needs tending twice a day.
It makes me so mad I ought to . . . get out for a walk before cabin fever sets in.
