Headteacher's newsletters
Remembrance Service at St. Mary's Church
St. Mary's Church was filled with beautifully handcrafted poppies for Remembrance Day. The children tried to count them all before our service.
Father David Hayes led the service inside the church before we went outside for our Act of Remembrance. Mr. Hayes brought the Green Howard's standard for the playing of the Last Post. Mr Mike Auty, previous Chair of Governors, laid the wreath on behalf of the school. Five of the children from Class 4 read poems for us.
Thank you everyone, it was a lovely service.
Harvest Festival at St. Mary's Church
Micklefield Children's Choir at Churchville House.
Our school choir sang at the Macmillan Coffee Morning on Thursday. They sounded great and received lots of applause and compliments. We hope the children's singing encouraged more cake and coffee/tea sales!
Tanzania visitor
Kathryn Cole came to our assembly on Monday 3rd September, to give an update on how the children are doing in the nurseries she works with in Tanzania.
They have a lovely new mat which they bought with our harvest collection last year. Kathryn is going to buy food for them with the money we collect for harvest this year.
They looked very happy sitting on their new mat on the photos!
Tour de Garforth
We had a great day riding the Tour de Garforth with our cycling friends from the other local schools.
Oh we do like to be beside the seaside....!
Most of the children and many of our parents went on our seaside trip and had a lovely day out on Filey Beach as part of our Geography Themed Week. We paddled, built sandcastles, explored and shopped. Thank you Miss Watson and Mr. Bland for organising a brilliant day!

Babes On A Plane: A Horror Story
Last year, I took my 8 month old baby on an 8 hour plane ride to America. The flight out there was during the day, and the return was overnight. Needless to say, we were worried. I must've read 30 different articles titled "Top Tips For Taking Your Baby On A Plane" in preparation for the flight and by the time it rolled around, I felt relatively confident that I could get through the whole ordeal unscathed. Armed with a suitcase full of toys and snacks I boarded American Airlines Flight 1550.
If you were on that flight, you probably remember me as the good-looking, competent, has-her-shit-together mother of the impossibly cute baby.
Hazel made it through the entire flight without so much as a whimper. Sure, it was hard work for us, constantly entertaining her, but it had paid off. We received several (well deserved) compliments on our parenting skills as we deplaned.
"No, this isn't her first international flight." We told people with mock-humility "This is the sixth country she's visited so far." Never mind that we drove to most of those places.
In the line for customs, my husband and I wore smug smiles and said things to each other like, "See, that just goes to show that if you put the effort in, a plane ride doesn't have to be such a big deal."
Once we arrived in North Carolina, we told anyone who would listen about the flight. We proudly repeated the compliments we'd received, sometimes with added embellishments to emphasize how great we were at traveling.
I thought to myself, "I should write a blog post about taking your child on a plane. People could use my help and advice."
Side note: That post is still saved in my drafts folder. I am too embarrassed to share it because of what comes next, but I can tell you it includes gems like "Pack one new toy for each hour" and "bring your baby carrier, it's helpful to go for a walk up and down the aisle."
A few weeks later, we went to the airport with the same toy-filled case ready to brave the flight back. This time though, we weren't nervous at all. We were great at flying. Our child was a citizen of the world, after all. It was an overnight flight as well, so Hazel would be sleeping most of the way. I even optimistically packed my Kindle.
Things started out ok. We read a few books, Hazel had her dinner and then dozed off to sleep after her bottle. We flashed confident smiles that said, don't worry-we got this, to the passengers around us.
Then, the cabin crew came crashing through the aisle with dinner trays. Margaret*, a woman I still plan to track down and murder, leaned over my shoulder and shouted, "Chicken or fish?"
That's when things took a turn for the worse.
Hazel did not want chicken or fish, she wanted to sleep. She also wanted to scream. I wanted to die and also throw both the chicken and the fish at Margaret's face.
The worst came about 45 minutes after the "Chicken or Fish" incident. Like any good parent, I began damage control immediately. I pushed past Margaret to the back of the plane and tried to rock Hazel back to sleep. I thought I might have rescued the situation when Hazels eyes started to drift shut once again.
"It's how you deal with problems that makes you a great parent"I thought to myself as relief flooded over me. "I'd better include this in my blog."
However a few minutes later Margaret, who I now believe was against me from the start, snuck up behind me once again and shouted, "MA'M! I am trying to get through service here, and you're in the way. You need to go back to your seat."
Cue baby crying.
I stomped back to my seat and began to rant to my husband about Margaret's incompetence.
At this point, the passengers around us started to look up from their chicken or fish to see what they would be dealing with for the remainder of the flight. The scene wasn't pretty.
As my child wailed, I screamed obscenities about the uselessness of the cabin crew to my husband-who looked around nervously, told me to take a break and took our child to the back of the plane to try to calm her down.
1 hour later, he returned with our daughter no closer to falling asleep- though her voice had become considerably more raspy from screaming for so long. He informed me that Margaret would not allow him to stand back there any longer because there was a risk of turbulence. We were confined to our seats by the seatbelt sign, which remained on FOR THE REST OF THE FLIGHT (approximately 7 hours).
After another hour of screaming, I got to my breaking point and decided to stand. I would rock Hazel near my seat and sit down if I felt any bumps. I could feel the other passengers urging me on silently. "Do it, if you fall and hit your head, at least it will be quiet."
I looked defiantly at Margaret, stood, and began to rock my baby to sleep.
But Margaret was no fool, and as she simply could not miss another opportunity to upset my baby, she barged down the aisle and told me to sit down.
Once her back was turned, I loudly remarked on what a colossal bitch Margaret was and informed my fellow passengers that she, not me, was the reason they would have to put up with a screaming baby for the remainder of the flight. I made a point of loudly commenting on Margaret's involvement in my child's distress to drive the point home, but this did very little to assuage their anger.
When the flight was over, my husband and I took our now sleeping daughter off the plane with our heads bowed. We avoided eye contact with the angry mob of passengers and pretended not to hear the snide comments from those seated around us.
We both agreed that there is definitely some element of luck when it comes to flying with a child and vowed never to fly American Airlines again, unless it's the cheapest- in which case we would do it no question- because we're not rich enough to have principles at this time in our lives.
So, with that episode behind me- I thought I'd write a real list of top tips for flying with a child for those of you with enough dedication to read this far down the page.
Top Tips For Flying With A Small Child
1.Don't do it
2. If you have to do it, take a lot of snacks and toys. Also, take an iPad. Even if, like me, you're above that kind of parenting because you read on the Huffington Post that it might destroy their imaginations, bring the iPad. We didn't bring ours because I assumed our awesome parenting skills would be enough, but instead I found myself jamming Hazel's head between the seats trying to get her to watch the iPad of the travelers in front of me at one point.
3. Don't make goody bags with earplugs and candy for the other passengers. When your child is screaming, a bullshit note and a sweet is going to do very little to make them hate you less.
4. Use the money you saved by not making gift bags for the plane to buy a cocktail or 3. Everyone already thinks you're a bad parent because your child is going insane, so you might as well give up completely.
5. Don't let Margaret give you any shit. Just kidding you have to do what they say. Thanks Osama.
*Margaret's name has been changed in case others feel the same rage that I do

Most alternate rates use the US dollar as the bottom forex and different currencies as the counter currency.

Brief sound clip
I don't know about you, but I can never seem to get enough of the Washington, DC-based, acapela group, "Sweet Honey in the Rock." You've just heard a little from the title track for their CD, "I Got Shoes" -- a good way to get your feet and your spirit ready for Black History Month. You may want to walk with proud energy, like Sweet Honey does in "Freedom Train," or in their version of the traditional Bantu song that commemorates a boy's passage into manhood:
Brief sound clip
Maybe you want to kick up your heels to "Shoo Fly" or flat out run with Molly, Lucy, and all the other kids in that old play song, "Run Molly Run." Or if you have little ones just finding out about numbers, you might want to stroll, while your youngsters count and sing along in English, Swahili, Japanese, French, and Spanish. There's something for every pace, for every heartbeat, on this recording -- songs to inspire and to clap along to, songs for sleep and songs to wake up to:

Someone Forgot To Tell Kentucky They Had A Game Today
Posted by Matt on October 25, 2008
Discuss this article now over at ACC vs. SEC!: Someone Forgot To Tell Kentucky They Had A Game Today
The last time the University of Kentucky Wildcats were ran out of a football stadium it was a 49-0 loss on the road to LSU during the 2006 season. At that moment the Cats were 3-4 and at an impasse, if you will, on the season, forced to dig deep in order to recover. The rest, as they say, is history.
Kentucky decided to finish strong, going 5-1 in their remaining six gamest including a victory over Clemson in the Music City Bowl, the Wildcats' first Bowl game in seven years (at the time) and first Bowl victory since 1984.
Fast forward to 2008. After an electrifying, albeit very late, 13 point comeback in the final five minutes of last week's game against Arkansas, the Cats looked poised to turn their season around with quarterback Mike Hartline's new found confidence — he did, after all, earn an ESPN helmet sticker for his two touchdown passes in the final four minutes against the Razorbacks.
Today, Kentucky took their 5-2 squad and 7th ranked scoring defense in to The Swamp to take on the mighty Florida Gators team that hung 51 points on the road against the same school that last dismantled my Wildcats. The problem is someone forgot to tell Kentucky they had a game today.
Florida scored 28 points in the first 12 minutes of the game — including two one-play touchdown drives on the heels of back-to-back blocked punts of Kentucky's Tim Masthay. Trust me, it didn't get any prettier after that. Add another blocked kick in the form of a Lones Seiber field goal attempt to go along with a Mike Hartline interception returned for a touchdown to start the Second Half and you have yourself the ingredients for a world class blowout.
Throw in some other random plays that were probably poorly defended (sorry for the lack of detail but I just couldn't bear to watch) and you have a final score of 63-5 with a special thanks going to Florida punter Chas Henry for the botched punt that nearly doubled our score with a safety late in the 4th Quarter. We needed all the help we could get.
After today's embarrassing loss — coming two years to the month after the aforementioned spanking at the hands of LSU — many fans may be asking: where do we go from here?
Contrary to what some my expect, I am going to leave the crucifying to another blogger and go out on a limb and say that rest assured, Kentucky can still go up; the wheels haven't fallen off just yet. Coach Brooks still has this team in a much better position now than it was when he inherited it in 2003 and anyone who disagrees can look directly at the recruiting classes between 2002 and 2009 (not to mention those two Music City Bowl victories he has lying around).
According to Scout.com, the 2002 recruiting class for the University of Kentucky contained 1 4-star, 1 3-star, and 17 1-star recruits. In contrast, Brooks' current class of 2009 high school graduates is comprised of 1 5-star, 1 4-star, 11 3-stars, 5 2-stars recruits, and only 1 1-star recruit, good enough for the 23rd best recruiting class in the Nation.
Unfortunately some reading this will say that the 2009 class cannot help us now and they'd be 100% correct. But this blogger is not giving up on what the Wildcats still have on the field this year, understanding that there is a lot of talent that is no longer on the field thanks to injuries — most notably ones of the season-ending variety to super play makers Dicky Lyons, Jr. and Derrick Locke.
Kentucky is just a mere win away from being Bowl eligible for the third straight year and if the Wildcats can manage to squeak in to post-season play this season, it will be the first time since the Paul "Bear" Bryant era of the 1950s that this team has gone to three straight Bowl games, adding to the history the Rich Brooks-led Wildcats have already made.
At the end of the day Big Blue Nation never expected to beat Florida today, let alone win the National Championship this year, but what fans of Kentucky did expect is another Bowl appearance and another Bowl victory and both are still well within reach and that is what is most important, especially for recruiting.
Nevermind today's loss; what is done is done and fans need to quickly move on because a loss by 58 and a loss by less than 8 are both still losses. As embarrassed as I am by today's performance, as many Big Blue fans are, we must implore the team to press on and come home from Starkville with a victory next week, setting the table for a three game stretch that includes Georgia and Tennessee with (hopefully) Bowl eligibility already in hand.
Despite the fact that the first exhibition basketball game is just 12 days from today, I urge the Wildcat faithful to not look towards basketball season too quickly. Granted someone forgot to tell Kentucky they had a game today but I am confident that it won't happen again.
Not, at least, with what is on the line for the Cats over the next four games: making history.

If you've gone through one of my workshops, you'll know that I can dole out some tough love. Why? Because I can't imagine anyone wants to spend time with me and come out the other end just average. So I call out examples of average.
One of the most prevalent examples of average I still see is asking for a connection on Linkedin. So often I get the generic "I want to connect with you on Linkedin" message from people I've met.
While it's lovely that you want to connect with me, the message you're sending to me (and to others you're trying to connect with) is "I can't be bothered." I can't be bothered to personalize my message to you. I'm not worth the extra 60 seconds it takes to say SOMETHING original.
Folks, not taking the time to send a personalized message is missing a HUGE opportunity.
And then this week someone blew my mind; blew my mind because she wrote probably the most personal and best Linkedin connection request I've seen to date. With her permission, I will share it and explain why I think it's perfect.
This is a snapshot of the request:
You must agree that's a pretty outstanding connection request. What jumps out to me are the following four aspects:
- The language is far from generic.
- By mentioning the speed mentoring event, she subtly reminds me where we met.
- By mentioning blockchain and cryptocurrency, she reminds me what we talked about.
- While she said thank you at the beginning, writing that she has "lot to think about" is a lovely way of saying thank you for your time.
I now have four talking points that I can use in a discussion about her in a room she's not in:
- She has impeccable follow-up.
- She thinks about others before herself.
- If you want to talk about blockchain and/or cryptocurrencies, you should speak with her.
- Her name, her company, what she does. (Redacted but I won't forget.)
In her profession, and I'm guessing many others, this is the kind of introduction you'd want right? From a short yet carefully crafted LinkedIn connection request.
Use the opportunity of a Linkedin connection request as leverage in crafting the story told about you in a room you're not in.
When connecting with people anywhere, it's the little things that count. You work so hard to make a great impression, isn't the extra 60 seconds of effort worth it?
Every decision made about you and your opportunities is made in a room you're not in.

Europe is to become the first place in the world to force 'real world' emissions tests on car makers, opening up a new front in the fight to tackle air pollution.
New regulations will introduce the tests to reveal what cars' emissions are like when driving on roads and in traffic rather than in ideal laboratory-like conditions as is currently the case, the Guardian has learned.
Green lit by European Commission vice president Frans Timmermans, the tests are designed to enforce a limit of 80mg of nitrogen oxide per kilometre, a level met by only one car out of 16 according to researchers.
Other countries such as China and Korea, which are also considering real world emissions tests, will be watching what happens next closely.
Pollutants from diesel engines such as nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide and particulates are thought to be responsible for at least one quarter of the 29,000 annual pollution-related deaths in the UK alone. That figure is likely to rise, when the committee on the medical effects of air pollutants publishes what it calls "strengthening evidence" of damage to public health from nitrogen oxide emissions later this year.
But the current 'New European Drive Cycle' laboratory test for measuring these emissions is a quarter of a century old, and has been outpaced by technological developments in the car industry. Studies have shown that lab techniques to measure car emissions can easily be gamed with techniques such as taping up doors and windows to minimise air resistance, driving on unrealistically smooth roads, and testing at improbably high temperatures.
Campaigners say that car makers also use tricks such as programming vehicles to go into a low emissions mode when their front wheels are spinning and their back wheels are stationary, as happens in such lab experiments.
"The Commission is finalising a proposal to introduce a new emissions testing procedure which will allow proper assessment of the vehicles in real driving," said Lucia Caudet, a Commission spokesperson. The proposal still needs approval from other commissioners and a technical committee, but "we don't expect any major internal hurdles," an EU source added.
"One key reason why air pollution kills 400,000 citizens annually is that carmakers cheat the tests for diesel cars, causing many times more pollution on the road," said Greg Archer, the clean vehicles manager for Transport and Environment. "The development of a new real-world driving emission test is an important step forward to tackling urban air pollution. EU states should now support the Commission's proposals and ignore the whinging from carmakers that the rules are too tough."
According to research by the International Council on Clean Transportation last year, actual nitrogen oxide emissions from cars are seven times higher than the 80mg/km standard, with some models running at 22 times above the recommended limit. Only one car out of 16 met the 80g target.
Around one third of all nitrogen oxide pollution comes from road transport – mostly diesel - and in urban areas concentrations can rise as high as 64%, European Environment Agency figures indicate.
Campaigners say that the car industry has tried to delay reforms to car test cycles, but industry groups deny this, arguing that a 5-year lead-time is necessary for technical and economic reasons.
"Real Driving Emissions is a totally new regulation that will force significant emission control hardware changes that may be demanded in the middle of a vehicle's production lifetime," said Cara McLaughlin, a spokesperson for the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (Acea). "However, Acea fully accepts that RDE will apply to new types [of cars] from September 2017."
In an unusual move, the car association sent Timmermans a draft regulation of their own for him to consider, after EU representatives finally agreed a regulation to implement the nitrogen oxide limits with beefed-up road trials and strict monitoring of exhaust fumes.
Acea's draft regulation would have covered fewer pollutants and further delayed the regulation's phased introduction until 2020. Test distances would have been shortened from 1300m to below 700m, minimum temperatures would have been raised from -7C to -3C, and more rural roads would have been used.
"The lobbyists were all over this," Archer said. "This was a real attempt at subversion of the legislative process."
After Timmerman's apparent rejection of the Acea proposal, the regulation will now pass to commissioners for a rubber stamp, and member states for final amendments, before an expected introduction in September. By 2017, the first real world car emissions tests are expected to begin in earnest.
With a similar battle already looming over the testing of CO2 emissions for cars at the end of year – and comparable debates raging in other countries – the implementation of the EU's new emissions tests will be watched closely.

Now, really the reason for this blog today is to talk about my precious Jasper. I know, it's shitty of me to write about just one of my furry babies, but unless one of them breaks into my lap top, I don't think we have to worry about any real jealousy here.
The reason why I am singling out Jasper is because I believe Jasper was truly sent to me as a gift. I needed him in my life and he found us. Literally. When we first saw Jasper he was just so fucking adorable with his big ass ears and jumping all over my mom's neighbor, we didn't think anything of it. Then we found out he was *gasp* an abandoned puppy. We couldn't just leave him so we took him to the vet to check and see if this adorable little baby was micro chipped. He was not. We put an ad in the paper, no one claimed him after 2 weeks. I didn't even want him at first, no matter how fucking cute he was because he was a destructive little asshole who ruined a bunch of shit AND chewed through my laptop cord. I was livid.
CW, however was pretty adamant about wanting to keep the little bugger so, we did. We got him fixed and micro chipped and boom! He was ours. Now, almost 4 years later he has become one of the greatest dogs I have ever owned. I love him to pieces and he makes my heart melt daily. With his breed it is said that:
"The ACD [Australian Cattle Dog] needs to be handled firmly yet fairly, and it is totally loyal and obedient to its master, and it's a one-person dog." -http://www.terrificpets.com/dog_breeds/Australian_Cattle_Dog.aspI happen to be the lucky one that Jasper chose to be his person. Not to say that Jasper doesn't love CW tons but let's just say, if he had to chose one of us to save from a burning building, adios, Honey!
Not only is Jasper a really good companion to me, but I have managed to train him to be somewhat of a service dog. How? or Why? You might ask. Well, you see Jasper is insanely smart and I swear he knows what I'm saying most of the time, and he's very easy to train. I have some health issues where it hurts to move sometimes of it hurts to bend (I've blogged about 'em before) and my immune system is shitty due to my health crap so sometimes I'm not 100% and when I'm doing things around the house like laundry or hell, sometimes even if I'm not if I'm just knitting or crocheting and I drop something I might need help because when I bend down to get something I get shooting pain and then it fucking sucks. So I just call Jasper and boom, he picks up whatever I need. Sometimes I don't even need to call him, he hears something hit the floor and he's there to pick it up. He's that damn good.
Not only does he do that but he also breaks up cat fights, he throws away trash, he takes things to my husband in a different room or brings things to me from my husband in a different room. He helps make up the bed, he alerts us to when the older dogs have to go outside to potty. He helps put away his toys (he has tons of them too), he'll watch movies/tv with you, he'll help pick up laundry, sometimes, he'll even sing a song with you. He's such an amazing dog. I'm lucky and blessed to have him. I'm not saying that my other furry babies aren't special they are, they are very special, but Jasper, Jasper goes that extra mile to make sure that his two legged Momma is feeling okay and if I'm not, he does whatever he can to make sure that he can make me better. I'm so thankful my hubby talked me into keeping him.

M iles Forman digs art. Paintings. Music. Theater. Photography. No matter the medium, it's large in importance to this third-generation Fort Laud- erdale native. Referencing the famous Duke Ellington quote, "There are two kinds of music— good music and the other kind," Forman says, "That is how I not only feel about music but all art, all kinds." While he sits upstairs at Ernie's Bar-B-Q, a balmy breeze tousles his messy tangle of curls as he gazes over the balcony's edge at a rush hour traffic jam on South Federal Highway. "I like it up here," he muses. "There's so much to watch. It used to be a lot seedier on this stretch of U.S. 1, but it's still fascinating to watch everything going on." Grandson to Fort Lauderdale founding father Hamilton For- man, and son to the prominent Austin Forman, this 38-year-old, hardworking free spirit attended Cardinal Gibbons High School and the Art Institute, surrounded by the politics of the burgeoning real estate empire his family built and their influence on this city. A few years ago, Forman created a documentary called "Fatboy: The Movie" chronicling his own dramatic weight loss. He wanted to embark on such a journey because he didn't feel he had it in him to lose the necessary weight if his strug- gle and voyage to health weren't publi- cized. He succeeded. These days, Forman's professional life includes running a record label called Stereo Bang Media. His main client, Hyro da Hero, is an alterna- tive rap artist who tours internationally and has played such gigs as the Vans Warped Tour. In typical fashion, Forman dove into all aspects of representing Hyro, writing, producing and directing his music videos. He talks fervently about different musicians and genres, his favorites being Guns N' Roses, R.E.M., Phish, Wilco, White Stripes, The Strokes, Pearl Jam…the list continues. Do not even get him started on Miley Cyrus. His hands fly dramatically and his voice hits an angry crescendo as he trashes the young pop star, using more than a few choice words. He's a film buff, with interests running the gamut. And it's no surprise he has an opinion about that industry, too. "How do I have time to watch that many movies? Because I make a commit- ment while you spend three-and-a-half hours channel-surfing reality TV bulls**t," he says. Taking a breath, this Gemini switches topics quickly, his short attention span apparent. He talks about his art collection. Some of his favorite masterpieces are the avant-garde works of British street artist Banksy. "I like to collect art because I like it," he points out. "All of this stuff, all the different art, comes together for me. I just...I just love creativity. If something grabs my attention, I want to know what it is." Nowadays, however, the biggest masterpiece grabbing his attention is his family, which includes his wife, Tara, and three young children: Chloe, 7; Mick, 3; and Hamilton, 6 months. He actually received an invitation to the Grammy Awards this year, but turned it down in favor of daddy duties. "Maybe next year," he shrugs. Forman serves on the boards of the Museum of Art | Fort Lauderdale and the Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival, among others. He has big visions for where Fort Lauderdale could take itself culturally. "There has always been plenty of art in South Florida, and we are home to great artists of every generation," Forman says. "People just don't want to em- brace it. Everyone needs to get out of the box. Go see a play. Go see a local band. We have a lot of other options here like sports teams, shopping and nightclubs. But sometimes, maybe you should look around at all the culture we have here at our disposal. Next time you have a date or something, you know, next time you need something to do, maybe you should try to inject a little culture into your life." BY DESIGN The eclectic and dynamic Miles Forman reinvents himself. BY CONNOR HANSEN PHOTOGRAPHY BY KARIN MARTINEZ The free-spirited Miles Forman sounds off. "I just love creativity. If something grabs my attention, I want to know what it is." 62 Venice

There isn't anything like a superb story, and nothing like being the person who started a renowned urban legend. Deciding upon the ideal approach route Cursive writing is basically joined-up handwriting. Practice reading by yourself as often as possible.
Research urban legends to obtain a concept of what's out there prior to making a new one. You are still not sure the radicals have the proper idea. Naturally, you won't use the majority of your ideas. If you've got an idea for a tool please inform us. That means you can begin right where you are no matter how little you might feel you've got to give. You are also quite suspicious of any revolutionary shift. In earlier times you've stated that the move of independence may be too early.
Each lesson in handwriting should start on a fresh new page, so the little one becomes enough room to practice. Every handwriting lesson should begin with the alphabets. Handwriting learning is just one of the most important learning needs of a kid. Learning how to read isn't just challenging, but fun too.
The use of grids The use of grids is vital in earning your child learn to Improve handwriting. Also, bear in mind that maybe your very first try at brainstorming may not bring anything relevant, but don't stop trying. Once you are able to work, you might be surprised how much you get done.

6 Grade Math Practice Worksheet. Try to remember, you always have to care for your child with amazing care, compassion and affection to be able to help him learn. You may also ask your kid's teacher for extra worksheets. Your son or daughter is not going to just learn a different sort of font but in addition learn how to write elegantly because cursive writing is quite beautiful to check out. As a result, if a kid is already suffering from ADHD his handwriting will definitely be affected. Accordingly, to be able to accomplish this, if children are taught to form different shapes in a suitable fashion, it is going to enable them to compose the letters in a really smooth and easy method. Although it can be cute every time a youngster says he runned on the playground, students want to understand how to use past tense so as to speak and write correctly. Let say, you would like to boost your son's or daughter's handwriting, it is but obvious that you want to give your son or daughter plenty of practice, as they say, practice makes perfect.
Without phonics skills, it's almost impossible, especially for kids, to learn how to read new words. Techniques to Handle Attention Issues It is extremely essential that should you discover your kid is inattentive to his learning especially when it has to do with reading and writing issues you must begin working on various ways and to improve it. Use a student's name in every sentence so there's a single sentence for each kid. Because he or she learns at his own rate, there is some variability in the age when a child is ready to learn to read. Teaching your kid to form the alphabets is quite a complicated practice.

Prepping Homes For Market
"Curb appeal" is very important in marketing your home. If a buyer does not like what they see from the curb, they will not come inside your home. A freshly detailed house is more inviting and gives it a well maintained look. Having been a broker since 1977, Paul knows what to look for. A good exterior wash and a little touch up here and there can make a home much more inviting and bring in better offers.

Yarraville author Maxine Beneba Clarke has just published her memoir, and has a children's book due out soon, but she tells Benjamin Millar she still finds time to enjoy nature and her favourite bookshops.
What is your connection with the inner west?
I moved to the inner west about four and a half years ago.
I really like the west because it's so diverse, after my experience growing up somewhere not so diverse.
I like that my kids are growing up somewhere they have people they see themselves reflected in.
I think there are other places in Melbourne that are diverse, but I also knew there was a vibrant artistic community here, and it's so close to the city, so it ticked all the boxes.
How has living here influenced your work?
Footscray itself has worked its way into my writing.
I set a lot of my fiction in the west.
I can't believe the west hasn't been written about more in Australian writing. It's just such a unique area to be writing about.
What are your favourite local spots?
I really like it down by the Maribyrnong River, behind Footscray Community Arts Centre.
There is something about being near the water.
I also live quite near Cruickshank Park, a long park that runs through Yarraville.
I like anywhere around the Sun Bookshop, I'm forever in that bookshop, and all my money goes there.
What are your latest writing projects?
As well as my memoir The Hate Race, I have been working on a children's book The Patchwork Bike with [Yarraville artist] Van Rudd.
It's been this amazing meeting of minds.
We both have kids around the same age, and we've noticed there is not much diverse kids' writing.
People are hungry for something a little bit different; readers are people looking for a journey.
What inspired you to publish a memoir?
My inspiration is telling the stories that have until now been untold.
What interests me is writing the kind of book that I have never read.
The Hate Race is essentially a memoir about growing up black in Australia in the '80s and '90s.
My parents migrated from London to Australia, and it's essentially a school-yard memoir.
It's partly a book about bullying and racism, and what happens when everyone is complicit – what kind of person does that turn you into?
Are you more hopeful for kids growing up today?
I see a lot of hope around the arts community and in what I see among my kids' friends.
They don't seem to have the same hang-ups that kids whose parents grew up in white Australia may have, there doesn't seem to be a lot of angst about it.
I have a lot of hope, but it's still not getting through to the political class.
I feel the election of Pauline Hanson is almost another Brexit, an older generation essentially dictating what is happening in politics.
■ The Hate Race is out now through Hachette. Maxine Beneba Clarke will be appearing in a number of events at the Melbourne Writers Festival.

- UCLA freshman LiAngelo Ball, brother of NBA rookie Lonzo Ball, was reportedly questioned, along with teammates Cody Riley and Jalen Hill, over an alleged shoplifting incident, and later arrested.
LiAngelo Ball, brother of Los Angeles Lakers point guard Lonzo Ball, and second-oldest son of LaVar Ball, was among the three UCLA basketball players arrested in China and questioned about an alleged shoplifting incident, according to ESPN's Jeff Goodman.
Ball was in China with the Bruins as the team prepared to open the NCAA basketball season against Georgia Tech on Friday in Shanghai.
Ball, along with UCLA teammates and fellow freshmen Cody Riley and Jalen Hill, were reportedly questioned about a theft at a Louis Vuitton store located next to the team's hotel.
UCLA released a statement on the incident, saying "We are aware of a situation involving UCLA student-athletes in Hangzhou, China. The University is cooperating fully with local authorities on this matter, and we have no further comment at this time."
Three players from Georgia Tech were also questioned by police regarding the matter, but were later cleared of any wrongdoing, according to the school.
"During the questioning, it was determined that Georgia Tech student-athletes were not involved in the activities being investigated," Georgia Tech said in the statement. "They have resumed their scheduled activities in advance of Saturday's season opener versus UCLA in Shanghai."
