The steps of a dance as put together for performance or the art of composing dances

Choreography

-In Greek and Roman drama of the classical period, a group of characters in a play who comment on the action, frequently speaking directly to the audience -The function of the chorus is usually that of an intermediary between the audience and the major characters in the play -Because they are often given a collective role, the individual members of the chorus seldom have separate names or characters -Instead, the group as a whole serves as a surrogate "audience" to the degree that it is detached from the dramatic action and can view with horror of amusement the action of the major characters; at the same time, the chorus can participate directly in the action, advising the protagonist, arguing with the antagonist, and praying to the gods for guidance

Chorus

-Historically, comedy is any play that ends happily -More specifically, it is the genre of dramatic literature that is lighter in tone than drama but more serious than farce -Comedy differs from drama in that the characters are less developed, the theme is less weighty, the language is usually wittier, and the ending is invariably happy -Comedy is often difficult to distinguish from farce; in the latter, the humor is more physical, the characters are more broadly drawn, and the plots are more contrived

Comedy

-4000-323 B.C. -Organized warfare: Mycenae (military stronghold), Sparta, phalanx (military formation -Literature: epic poetry (Iliad, Odyssey), plays (drama, tragedy, comedy) -History: Herodotus (historian who reported the Persian Wars), Thucydides (historian who reported the Peloponnesian War) -Architecture: columns and colonnades (sequence of columns), Parthenon -Arts: theater, sculpture, decorative pottery -Government: democracy (Athens), oligarchy (small group of people in power—Sparta), bureaucracy (Alexander the Great), a system of law to improve society -Other: founded most of the major philosophical schools, established the systematic basis for the scientific method, and perfected advances in shipbuilding and commerce

The results of taking integers and raising them to the 3rd power (cubing them) The first seven positive cube numbers are 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, and 343 Examples: (-3)³ = -27; therefore, -27 is a cube number (0)³ = 0; therefore, 0 is a cube number

Cube numbers

-Hastened by the Frankish system of inheritance -The Treaty of Verdun (A.D. 843) divided Charlemagne's empire among his three grandsons -Carolingian rule ended in the 10th century because of the decline in central authority and the invasions of the Scandinavian tribes

-A relationship between numbers and/or symbols that says two expressions have the same value -Solving an equation for a variable requires that you find a value or an expression that has the desired variable on one side of the equation and everything else on the other side of the equation -By doing the same arithmetic to each side of the equation, you eventually can isolate the desired variable Example: x-5 = 23. Solve for x. Add 5 to each side of the equation x = 28 Replace the original x with 28 and check to see if the resulting sentence is true. 28 - 5 = 23 23 = 23

Graphs of equations in two variables (usually x and y) can be formed by finding ordered pairs that make the equation true, and then connecting these points Example: Make a graph of the equation 2x + y = 6 One way to do this is to set up a table of values with the x-values first, and then the y-values. You then replace one of the variables with values and find what the other variable would have to be for each replacement. If the x's were replaced with -2, -1, 0, 1, and 2, then find the corresponding y-values If x = -2, then 2(-2) + y = 6 --> -4 + y = 6 --> y = 10 Make a table, plot the points

Language development milestones: Early childhood (3-4 years)

Language shapes thought -To acquire knowledge, thought is a fundamental necessity -It must be "thought about" before any new ideas can be formulated (e.g., a student who is learning English as a second language must be competent in his primary native language before he can "think" or understand new concepts in another language) -Initial emergence of language and thought are separate from each other, until about the age of 3 when a transition takes place in the child from the external to the internal -Children practice private speech (self-talk) to become more competent ---The use of private speech helps children to self-regulate through organizing, guiding, and controlling their behavior ---Private speech is responsible for all higher levels of mental functioning

-The value in the middle so that there are an equal number of data values to either side of it -To find the median, arrange the data values from smallest to largest, including any repeats, then find the middle value -If there is an odd number of data values, one of the data values will be in the middle -If there is an even number of data values, take the mean of the two middle values Example: 2, 2, 3, 5, 2, 6, 2, 6, 7, 9, 11 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 5, 6, 6, 7, 9, 11 Median = 5

Median

-The genre of theatre that is normally placed between tragedy and drama and which shares some characteristics with each -It is largely serious in tone, placing its major figures in great jeopardy, but unlike tragedy, saves them from destruction at the end -The moral stance of melodrama is always clear: the good characters are very good, the bad ones very bad

Melodrama

-The Church attempted to restrict pagan dance, often associated with fertility, but folk dances evolved from earlier ritual dance (e.g., Maypole dance; origins in primitive fertility rituals [dancing around a pole]; associated with spring) -Characteristics of folk dance: there are many regional differences; all had recreational aspects and basic steps such as running, walking, hopping, and skipping; all are linked to culture, music, and the history of a group; they take the form of a circle -Current examples in the 20th century: polka, square dances, historic dances—Cossack dance of Russia, polonaise of Poland, Czardas Hungarian tavern dance, and Mexican El Jarabe Tapatio (hat dance)

Middle Ages (500-1400)

A method one could use to determine the hardness of unknown mineral samples would be: -Scratch test: Test the item against materials of known hardness; for example, use your fingernail or the graphite in a pencil to attempt to scratch the items. This process should result in assigning a relative hardness to the unknown items. -Mohs' scale of hardness: This scale assigns a fixed number to 10 reference materials. Talc (1) is the softest and diamond (10) is the hardest -Cleavage: breaking along flat surfaces -Density: how much matter is in the object

Mineral hardness

-An Aegean civilization -Minoan civilization of Crete (c. 4000-1400 B.C.) based its prosperity on extensive commerce

Minoan civilization

-When the moon is at first quarter or third quarter, the sun, earth and moon form a 90-degree (right) angle with the earth at the vertex -The combined effect of this alignment of the sun, earth, and moon results in tidal ranges on the earth -When a neap tide occurs, the gravitational forces on the earth from both the sun and moon are minimized -Tidal range is lowest during neap tide

Neap tide/neaps

-They were blamed for most of the economic problems (backlash from the mining and railroad frontier) -The Chinese Exclusion Act was passed by federal Congress in 1882 (excluded Chinese from immigrating to the U.S.) -By 1877, politicians, newspapers, and citizens urged open agitation against the Chinese in California -The Workingmen's Party was established. It was nativist, anti-Chinese, and anti-big business (1877) ---It demanded a constitutional convention and populist-type reforms ---The California Constitution (1879) codified anti-Chinese legislation

Open hostility toward the Chinese erupted

A composition that imitates the style of another composition, normally for comic effect.

Parody

-Patterns are objects in a composition that are repeated -Regular patterns appear as predicted designs with easily identifiable features so that the viewer can visually recognize what may appear next -When there's no exact predicted design, but the viewer can generally predict what may appear next, the artist is using random patterns -Artists create patterns by repeating shapes, colors, or lines Example: French impressionist Claude Monet uses patterns of water lilies floating on a pond in Water Lilies (1914)

Personification

-Atmospheric perspective is used to create depth and dimension -Artists use overlapping, color, size, and contrast to reproduce the effects of distant objects Example: Darker objects appear to be closer when using lighter and duller colors for distant objects. In a landscape, lighter objects lose focus and clarity as they appear farther away.

Perspective: atmospheric or aerial

-New moon occurs when the moon sets at sunset -Then the moon is between the earth and the sun, so we see only the dark half of the moon -Each night, the moon sets a few minutes later and we perceive more of its illuminated half -After the moon has waxed through crescent, quarter, and gibbous phases, a full moon appears -At that time, the moon rises at sunset, and we see all of its illuminated side -Then the phase wanes gradually to another new moon -There are approx. 29.5 days between each cycle

Visual-Perceptual Disability (Dyslexia)

-Children actively construct their knowledge through society -Every function in the child's cultural development appears twice—first between people and then internally within the child -Language is an essential aspect of this development; cognitive growth and language are socially based -A child's cognitive growth is a shared process -Adults or older peers help provide children with learning tools in order to master difficult tasks -Two complementary tenets of his theory include the zone of proximal development and scaffolding

-Weather occurs primarily due to density (temperature and moisture) differences between one location and another -These differences can occur due to the angle of the sun at any particular spot, which varies by latitude from the tropics -The farther from the tropics you are positioned, the lower the angle of the sun -This causes those locations to be cooler due to the indirect sunlight -The strong temperature contrast between polar and tropical air gives rise to the jet stream

Why weather occurs

-Knowing some common prefixes and suffixes (affixes), base words, and root words can help students learn the meanings of many new words -For example, if students learn just the four most common prefixes in English (un-, re-, in-, dis-), they will have important clues about the meaning of about two-thirds of all English words that have prefixes -Prefixes are relatively easy to learn because they have clear meanings (un- = not, re = again), they are usually spelled the same way from word to word, and they always occur at the beginning of words

Word Parts (vocabulary instruction)

-The distance between a child's actual performance and a child's potential performance -Represents the amount of leaning possible by a student given the proper instructional conditions -If provided with guidance by someone more skilled, such as an adult or older peer, the child may exhibit a higher level of competency and move beyond what he or she was capable of doing unassisted

Climax

-Organisms that consume dead organisms and in doing so, carry out the natural process of decomposition -Like herbivores and predators, decomposers are heterotrophic -This means that they use organic substrates to get their energy, carbon, and nutrients for growth and development -Use deceased organisms and non-living organic compounds as their food source -The primary decomposers are bacteria and fungi

Decomposers

Invert (turn upside down) the second fraction and multiply; reduce if necessary. Example: 1/6 ÷ 1/5 = 1/6 x 5/1 = 5/6

Incandescent light bulb

1. Involves a value judgement 2. Includes assessment of the knowledge, insight, wisdom, or feeling imparted by a work

Interpreting theatre: Worth

-Seems to travel in perfectly straight lines as rays -The direction of a ray changes at the interface between two transparent materials, like air and water -Some of the light is reflected, the angle of reflection being equal to the angle of incidence -The portion of the light that crosses the boundary is, however, deflected in another direction, and the angle of refraction does not equal the angle of incidence -Other optical experiments are inconsistent with a simple ray theory and require that light travel as waves of electromagnetic energy

Light

Long-period comets

-During meiosis, the genome of a diploid germ cell undergoes DNA replication, resulting in four haploid cells -Each of these cells contains one complete set of chromosomes, or half of the genetic content of the original cell -If meiosis produces gametes, these cells must fuse during fertilization to create a new diploid cell, or zygote, before any new growth can occur -Because the chromosomes of each parent undergo genetic recombination during meiosis, each gamete, and thus each zygote, will have a unique genetic blueprint encoded in its DNA -Together, meiosis and fertilization generate genetically distinct individuals in populations

Mexican-American War

-Due to a combination of differential heating and geometry -When the sun rises, it is the tops of the mountain peaks which receive first light, and as the day progresses, the mountain slopes take on a greater heat load than the valleys -This results in a temperature inequality between the two, and as warm air rises off the slopes, cool air moves up out of the valleys to replace it -This upslope wind is called a valley breeze -The opposite effect takes place in the afternoon, as the valley radiates heat -The peaks, long since cooled, transport air into the valley in a process that is partly gravitational and partly convective and is called a mountain breeze

Mountain breezes and valley breezes

Society was based on a strict class division: clergy and nobility were the privileged class, peasants and artisans were the work force, and serfs were tied to the land

Characteristics of medieval civilization during the late Middle Ages: society

-A change of one substance into a different substance -Occurs whenever compounds are formed or decomposed -During this reaction, there is a rearrangement of atoms that makes or breaks chemical bonds -This change is usually not reversible, unlike physical changes Example: The formation of rust -Iron chemically reacts with air and water to form rust (ferrous oxide) and is unable to change back to iron

Chemical changes

-Composed of only one atom and cannot be separated into different substances except in some instances by radioactive decay or by nuclear reactions -Elements are assigned atomic numbers equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of their atoms -Each element has a different number of protons -The sum of the protons and neutrons gives an average atomic mass for the element

Chemical elements

-Time as a linear experience related to cause and effect -Most history is written in chronological order, but much theatre chooses to take liberties with the chronological presentation of facts -The earliest modification was to leave out long and unimportant passages of time in order to present scenes that capture the essence of the story in an episodic plot -Later developments include the flashback and the flash-forward

Revising

To round off any number: -Underline the place value to which you're rounding off. -Look to the immediate right (one place) of your underlined place value. -Identify the number (the one to the right). If it is 5 or higher, round your underlined place value up 1. If the number (the one to the right) is 4 or les, leave your underlined place value as it is and change all the other number to its right to zeros. Example: Round to the nearest thousands 345,678 --> 346,000 928,499 --> 928,000 Example: Round to the nearest hundredth 3.4678 --> 3.47 298,435.083 --> 298,435.08

-The management of language for a specific effect. -In a poem, the planned pacing of elements to acheive an effect. Example: the rhetorical strategy of most love poems is deployed to convince the loved one to return the speaker's love. By appealing to the loved one's sympathy ("If you don't return my love, my heart will break."), or by flattery ("How could I not love someone as beautiful as you?"), or by threat ("When you're old, you'll be sorry you refused me."), the lover attempts to persuade the loved one to love in return.

Strategy/Rhetorical strategy

-Created the territories of Kansas and Nebraska, opened new lands, repealed the Missouri Compromise of 1820, and allowed settlers in those territories to determine if they would allow slavery within their boundaries -The failure of the Kansas-Nebraska Act (1854) led to bloodshed over the expansion of slavery and raised the issue of popular sovereignty (in the pre-Civil War U.S., the doctrine that the inhabitants of a territory should be free from federal interference in determining their own domestic policy, esp. in deciding whether or not to allow slavery)

The Kansas-Nebraska Act

-Written in 1901 by Frank Norris -Described the far-reaching and destructive practices of the California railroad monopolies -Chronicles the domination of the railroad industries by the robber barons, who systematically destroyed, with unfair practices, small agricultural businesses -The Octopus had a direct effect on the California reform movement, which led to legislation that prohibited rebates and other unfair business practices

-Infants and children repeat sounds that are reinforced -Children can distinguish abstract rules for sentence structure

Habituation

-Student-adult reading -Choral/unison reading -Tape-assisted reading -Partner reading -Readers' theatre

Reading Aloud Exercises

-Through examination of words spelled correctly and incorrectly, a student's skills can be classified into developmental spelling stages -In this way, skills are examined that directly tie to reading -This assists in planning appropriate spelling and reading instruction.

Spelling Inventory (reading assessment)

-Students read larger units of print and use analogy to decode larger words -Decoding becomes fluent -Reading, accuracy and speed are stressed

The Fluent Reader: Developmental Expectation

-Non-systematic phonics instruction -Focus on whole-word or meaning-based activities -These programs pay only limited attention to letter-sound relationships and provide little or no instruction in how to blend letters to pronounce words

Basal Reading Programs

-Measures word recognition out of context -In general, proficient readers can read words in and out of context, and poor readers over-rely on context for decoding -This also assists the teacher in determining a level to start testing in oral reading inventories

High Frequency Word Recognition (reading assessment)

-Readers (especially younger readers) who visualize during reading understand and remember what they read better than readers who do not visualize -Help students by urging them to picture a setting, character, or event described in the text

Mental Imagery (text comprehension classroom activity)

A unit of meaning that cannot be divided into smaller elements, such as the word "book"

Morpheme

Words that we use in speaking or recognize in listening

Oral Vocabulary

-English spellings are too irregular for phonics instruction to really help children learn to read words -However, phonics instruction teaches children a system for remembering how to read words -Once children learn, for example, that "phone" is spelled this way rather than "foan," their memory helps them to read, spell, and recognize the word instantly and more accurately than they could read "foan" -The same process is true for all irregularly spelled words -Most of these words contain some regular letter-sound relationships that can help children remember how to read them -The alphabetic system is a mnemonic device that supports our memory for specific words

Criticisms of Phonics Instruction

Total words read - errors = words correct per minute 1. Select 2 or 3 brief passages from appropriate grade-level material (regardless of students' instructional levels). 2. Have individual students read each passage aloud for exactly 1 minute. 3. Count the total number of words the student read for each passage. Compute the average number of words read per minute. 4. Count the number of errors the student made on each passage. Compute the average number of errors per minute. 5. Subtract the average number of errors read per minute from the average total number of words read per minute. The result is the average number of words correct per minute (WCPM). 6. Repeat the procedure several times during the year. Graphing students' WCPM throughout the year easily captures their reading growth. 7. Compare the results with published norms/standards to determine whether students are making suitable progress in their fluency. Example: According to one published norm, students should be reading approx. 60 words per minute correctly by the end of 1st grade, 90 to 100 by the end of 2nd grade, and 114 by the end of 3rd grade.

How to Calculate Fluency

1. Teachers are good models of fluent reading. By listening, students learn how a reader's voice can help written text make sense. 2. Teachers should read aloud to students daily. 3. Teachers should help students practice orally rereading text that is reasonably easy for them (text containing mostly words they know or can decode easily). The texts should be at students' independent reading level and relatively short (probably 50-200 words) depending upon the age. 4. Teachers should assess to see if the text is at the students' independent reading level. Students should be able to read with about 95% accuracy (only 1 of every 20 words misread). If the text is more difficult, students will focus so much on word recognition that they will not have an opportunity to develop fluency. 5. Teachers use a variety of reading materials, including stories, nonfiction and poetry. Poetry is especially well suited to fluency practice because poems for children are often short and contain rhythm, rhyme, and meaning, making practice fun, easy and rewarding.

Implications of Teaching Fluency Instruction in the Classroom

-Graded passages that give an indication of the fluency with which a student is able to read -Also evaluated are accuracy, reading rate, reading level, and comprehension level

Oral Reading Inventory (reading assessment)

-Paired students take turns reading aloud to each other -More fluent readers can be paired with less fluent readers -Stronger reader reads a paragraph or page first, providing a model of fluent reading -Then the less fluent reader reads the same text aloud -Stronger student gives help with word recognition and provides feedback and encouragement to the less fluent partner -The less fluent partner rereads the passage until s/he can read it independently -Partner reading need not be done with a more and less fluent reader -Two readers of equal ability can practice rereading after hearing the teacher read the passage

Partner Reading (reading aloud exercise)

-A subcategory of phonological awareness -The ability to hear, identify, and manipulate the individual sounds (phonemes) in spoken words -The understanding that sounds work together to make words -The most important determinant toward becoming a successful reader -Before children learn to read print, they need to become aware of how the sounds in words work -The reason is that children who cannot hear and work with the phonemes of spoken words will have a difficult time learning how to relate these phonemes to the graphemes when they see them in written words

Phoneme Awareness/Phonemic Awareness

-The emergent reader -The beginning reader -The fluent reader -The remedial reader

Stages of Reading Development

-The student reads one-on-one with an adult (teacher, parent, classroom aide or tutor) -The adult reads the text first, providing the students with a model of fluent reading -Then the student reads the same passage to the adult with the adult providing assistance and encouragement -The student rereads the passage until the reading is quite fluent (should take approx. 3 to 4 readings)

Student-Adult Reading (reading aloud exercise)

-Requires students to determine what is important in what they are reading, to condense this information, and to put it into their own words -Instruction helps students identify or generate main ideas, connect the main or central ideas, eliminate redundant and unnecessary information, and remember what they read

Summarizing (text comprehension classroom activity)

-Monitoring comprehension -Using graphic and semantic organizers -Answering questions -Generating questions -Recognizing story structure -Summarizing -Making use of prior knowledge -Using mental imagery

-Hit California in the 1870s; a cycle of boom and bust was begun -The depression was characterized by low wages, high unemployment, railroad abuses (unfair pricing and rebates), and the restriction of water rights by land monopolies -The collapse of the Bank of California in 1875 (and other financial institutions) further weakened the California economy -Ensuing periods of economic boom and bust then fueled California's long history of troubled relations with immigrants, regarded as unwanted competition during economic downturn

Economic depression

-Primarily governed by stochastic (chance) events, the reactions these events provoke on non-living material, and the responses by organisms to the conditions surrounding them -Thus, an ecosystem results from the sum of individual responses of organisms to stimuli from events in the environment -The presence or absence of populations merely depends on reproductive and dispersal success, and population levels fluctuate in response to stochastic events -If the number of species in an ecosystem is higher, then the number of stimuli is also higher

Ecosystem relationships

-Mathematician, physicist, and astronomer -The most influential scientist of the Enlightenment -Described universal gravitation and the three laws of motion, which dominated the scientific view of the physical universe for the next three centuries -Showed that the motions of objects on Earth and of celestial bodies are governed by the same set of natural laws, by demonstrating the consistency between Kepler's laws of planetary motion and his theory of gravitation; thus removing the last doubts about heliocentrism and advancing the Scientific Revolution

1. Teachers must be responsive to the varying individual differences among uniquely different children 2. According to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), all children with disabilities are guaranteed a free, appropriate public education. An individualized education plan (IEP) can be designed for children with LD. According to the IDEA, children should be educated in the least restrictive environment. Many children integrate in a regular-classroom setting, inclusion program, but there are some children with LD who meet part time in a regular classroom and part time in a special education classroom, mainstream program 3. Since many children with LD have difficulty processing information, teachers should consider using methods of instruction that communicate to all parts of the child's sense. This helps the brain make mental pictures (e.g., physical movement, visualization tools, music, dance, etc.) 4. Guidelines for teachers to help children with learning disabilities

Educational implications for children with LDs

-Plural: mitochondria -A membrane-enclosed organelle found in most eukaryotic cells -Sometimes described as cellular power plants because they generate most of the cell's supply of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), used as a source of chemical energy -In addition to supplying cellular energy, mitochondria are involved in a range of other processes, such as signaling, cellular differentiation, and cell death, as well as the control of the cell cycle and cell growth

-Schemes are the way children mentally represent and organize the world -Children form mental representations of perceptions, ideas, or actions to help them understand experiences -Schemes can be very specific, or they can be elaborate Example: While sitting in a highchair, an infant repeatedly drops a plastic cup onto the floor while thinking, "If I drop my cup, someone will pick it up." This action helps the infant understand that this schema has a cause-and-effect relationship.

Schemes/Schemas

-Composed of the fragments of other types of rocks -Often deposited in distinct parallel layers -Weather and erosion break down other rock types into sediments -Over time, the sediments become cemented and compacted and form into sedimentary rocks -The processes that form sedimentary rock occur at the surface of the earth and within bodies of water -Cover 75 to 80% of the earth's land area -Classified by the source of their sediments -Conglomerates are sedimentary rocks containing large fragments of other rock material -Sandstone is another example -Texture is important in classifying clastic sedimentary rocks -Chemical sedimentary rocks form when dissolved mineral solutions crystalize out of lakes and oceans -Rock salt (formed by sodium chloride) and limestone (formed from calcium carbonate) are examples of chemical sedimentary rocks -Limestone can contain organic or once-living matter and can record the history of that matter's formation in features such as strata, fossil evidence, and ripple marks

First change all the denominators to their least common multiple (LCM), which in fractions is known as the least common denominator (LCD). This value is the least positive value that all the denominators will divide into without a remainder. Example: 5/24 + 7/36 = ? Multiples of 24: 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144 Multiples of 36: 36, 72, 108, 144, 180, 216 LCM = 72 5/24 + 7/36 = 15/72 + 14/72 Now that the denominators are the same, add the numerators and keep the denominator. 29/72

Adding fractions

The additive inverse of a number (also known as the opposite of the number) is a value that, when added to any number, equals 0. Any number added to its additive inverse equals 0. The additive inverse of a = -a For any number a, a + (-a) = 0 Example: 7 + (-7) = 0

-The analysis and study of meanings of words, phrases, and sentences -This is useful as a strategy in decoding to analyze the word that "sounds" correct in a sentence.

Semantics

Separates elements of equal power of meaning: two or more words, phrases or sentences. It should never separate a main clause from a subordinate clause or a word or phrase from a clause. -Used to separate main clauses when the separation is not done by a coordinating conjunction. ---Ask Joe for the book; he still has it. -Used to separate items in a series when there are commas within the items. ---Nora's dress was red, blue, and green; Lucy's was lilac and white; and Helen's was black, turquoise, and white.

-People who are intelligent possess a high level of common sense and have the ability to succeed according to their personal definition of success, within the limits of their culture and society -They adapt their weaknesses and get the most out of their strengths 1. Analytical (componential): Essentially measures the same elements that are measured by traditional intelligence tests, such as memory, critical thinking, and problem solving 2. Creative (experiential): Consists of the ability to create, design, imagine, or invent. A child who scores high in this area is insightful and creative. This child usually does not relate well to the academic demands of school 3. Practical (contextual): A component that focuses on the ability to use, apply, implement, and put something into practice. A child who scores high in this area is typically "street smart." This child does not usually work well with the demands from school

1. Teachers should appeal to a balanced combination of all intelligences 2. Teachers can develop programs to instruct students using multiple domains to help students feel socially valued 3. Teachers should develop a student's learning portfolio based upon the individual intellectual strengths of each student, including assessments that take into account the diversity of intelligences 4. Teachers should offer a variety of assessment types to allow students to show their strengths and evaluate their weaknesses

Educational implications of intelligence

1. Teachers can better recognize developmental themes as they appear in the classroom with a greater appreciation of the child's limited strengths and weaknesses (i.e., children who demonstrate an inability to express feelings, inability to trust others, or lack feelings of autonomy) 2. In understanding age-specific psychosocial tasks, the teacher can better develop curriculum related to specific grade levels 3. Teachers can recognize developmental deprivations in order to provide instruction that might better fit the child's mental capability 4. Teachers can use social and emotional development models to identify age-appropriate behaviors, activities, and materials

Educational implications of psychosocial stages of development

The pitch of a sound depends on how fast the particles of a medium vibrate

Pitch

-Students read along in their books as they hear a fluent reader read the book on an audiotape -You need a book at the student's independent reading level and a tape recording of the book read by a fluent reader at about 80 to 100 words per minute -The tape should not have sound effects or music -1st reading: student should follow along with the tape, pointing to each word in his/her book as the reader reads it -Next: student should try to read aloud along with the tape -Reading along with the tape should continue until the student is able to read the book independently, without the support of the tape

-Historical themes: spread of Christianity, development in Europe; the Crusades; the rise of universities; the influence of Islam; this was the longest period -Music styles/elements: ---The Church dominated society for most of the era (900 years); sacred music was the most prevalent (liturgical); Gregorian chant, named after Pope Gregory I, was a melody set to sacred Latin texts. This monophonic style music (one melodic line and no accompaniment) was the official music of the Roman Catholic church ---Musical notation originally consisted of just the pitch of the notes; notated rhythm was added at the end of the 12th century ---Polyphonic style (two or more melodic lines) appeared at the end of the 12th century, as did notation (system of writing music) and the chromatic scale (octaves of 12 notes) ---Most composers were anonymous ---Secular song developed by the end of the 12th century; popular songs were not bound by the traditions of the Church, and were performed by troubadours

Middle Ages/Medieval (500-1400)

-A land form that stretches above the surrounding land in a limited area, with a peak -Usually produced by the movement of lithospheric plates -The compressional forces, isostatic uplift, and intrusion of igneous matter forces surface rock upward, creating a land form higher than the surrounding features -The height of the feature makes it either a hill or, if higher and steeper, a mountain ---A mountain is generally steeper than a hill, but there is no universally accepted standard definition for the height of a mountain or a hill, although a mountain usually has an identifiable summit -The major mountains tend to occur in long linear arcs, indicating tectonic plate boundaries and activity -Two types of mountains are formed, depending on how the rock reacts to the tectonic forces: block mountains or fold mountains -Some isolated mountains were produced by volcanoes, including many apparently small islands that reach a great height above the ocean floor

Change to an improper fraction and multiply; then change the answer, if in improper form, back to a mixed number and reduce if necessary. Example: 3 1/3 x 2 1/4 = 10/3 x 9/4 = 90/12 = 7 6/12 = 7 1/2`

Multiplying mixed numbers

Use the distributive property Example: (3x +5)(2x - 7) First distribute the 3x over the (2x - 7), and then distribute the +5 over the (2x - 7) 3x(2x - 7) + 5(2x - 7) 6x² - 21x + 10x - 35 6x² - 11x - 35 This also means that 6x² - 11x - 35 = (3x + 5)(2x - 7)

Multiplying monomials with polynomials and polynomials with polynomials

-The product or quotient of two numbers with the same sign will produce a positive answer -The product or quotient of two numbers with the opposite signs will produce a negative answer Example: (-3)(8)(-5)(-1)(-2) = 240

-An efficient cardio-respiratory system may be the most important component of fitness -Cardio-respiratory endurance is the ability of the heart, blood vessels, and respiratory system to sustain work by delivering oxygen and nutrients to the tissues of the body over a period of time -To develop this endurance, activities must be aerobic -During aerobic activity, there is an integrated functional capacity of the heart and lungs, the vascular system, and the muscles to expend energy as the oxygen in the body is given maximum oxygen uptake -If a child is having difficulty during an aerobic fitness activity, the teacher should stop the activity when the child is out of breath ---This is a sign that the aerobic activity is causing the cardio-respiratory system to reach maximum oxygen uptake -Aerobic activity should include a 20-minute activity at your target heart rate

Concepts of physical fitness: Cardio-Respiratory (Aerobic)

-Even young children can experience elements of music through conducting speech chants, involving changes in tempo, dynamics, pitch, and so forth -Conducting fosters sensitivity to musical expression

Conducting

-Take up about 1/3 of the earth's land surface -Usually have a large diurnal (day) and seasonal temperature range, with high daytime temperatures, and low nighttime temperatures (due to extremely low humidity) -The temperature in the daytime can reach 45°C/113° or higher in the summer, and dip to 0°C/32° or lower in the winter -Water acts to trap infrared radiation from both the sun and the ground, and dry desert air is incapable of blocking sunlight during the day or trapping heat during the night -Thus, during daylight, most of the sun's heat reaches the ground and as soon as the sun sets, the desert cools quickly by radiating its heat into space -Many deserts are formed by rain shadows

Deserts

How long does it take to perform the activity? -The duration of the activity is dependent on the intensity and type of activity -The minimum of aerobic activity should be 8 to 10 minutes, but the ideal aerobic time should be at least 20 minutes during a 1-hour activity

-All folk dance is a form of cultural dance -Folk dance originated from medieval times when townspeople danced to celebrate -Medieval "carolers" were the first folk dancers and could be found throughout England and other parts of Europe -Although there are many dances that originated in Europe, authentic folk dancing in its purest form must include these four factors: ---Dance movements must predate the 19th century ---Dance is performed by peasants or royalty ---The choreography is derived from tradition ---There is no teacher -Variations on folk dances are found in dance forms of today, including square dancing and barn dancing

Folk dance

-Determine appropriate age-related expectations for a safe, enjoyable classroom activity -Determine the physical abilities, as well as gender-specific and special needs of students -Provide students with research and learning opportunities for cross-disciplines -Begin with a warm-up and end with a cool-down; exercises should include steps to be used in the dance activity -Separate the dance into the steps. Begin by teaching the steps, describing and demonstrating each separately. Steps are done slowly at first, using counts, and then at the proper tempo. -Teach one part of the basic step pattern at a time; when two parts have been learned, combine them to establish continuity of the dance -Explain the floor pattern. Have the dancers walk through the floor pattern. Then combine the steps with the floor pattern, first without music, and then with music (remember that not all dances have a set floor pattern). -Use key words and counts to cue the steps and directional changes, and to alert students (e.g., "ready"); this helps students keep the main rhythmic pattern and encourages them to gain a sense of the whole -Encourage vigorous activity so that students become involved in the experience and have little time to worry about things such as who their partner is -Encourage opportunities for different dance experiences such as solo, line, circle, scatter, or group formations of three and four. This dispels the idea that one must have a partner to dance. Restrict choice when partners are needed (e.g., ask students to dance with the person standing opposite, or the person closest). Encourage frequent and rapid change of partner. -Provide an opportunity for students to refine their skill level; once the whole dance has been learned, repeat several times to increase fluency and enjoyment -If the dance is to be performed in a formal or public setting, allow opportunities for all students to perform, not just the most able dancers -Provide opportunities for interpretation of dance -Provide a classroom dance program that includes different styles of dance from a cultural and historical context

Framework for dance activity instruction

-The start of this period begins with puberty -It is a time of growth spurts for both boys and girls -Around age 12, girls tend to be taller than boys and weigh almost 3 lbs more -Around age 13-14, girls lose their edge on growth, and boys exceed girls in height and weight -By age 18, boys are about 4 inches taller and 20 lbs heavier -Acceleration of large motor physical strength in boys -Boys tend to be clumsy at first due to the fast growth of their arms and legs, but quickly acquire an ease of movement -Participation in athletics improves physical strength and coordination -If the adolescent is successful at athletics, his self-esteem can be highly boosted since this brings him approval from his peers -Teens show a considerable interest in body image -Since body image is so important to teens, some teens may struggle with eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa (intense fear of gaining weight) or bulimia nervosa (binge-and-purge eating pattern)

Take in organic compounds from the environment

Heterotrophs

-The rugged topography of mountains and deserts isolated California's indigenous peoples from the cultures that developed on the Great Plains to the east and Mexico to the south -The landscape made extended travel on foot within the region extremely difficult as well; thus, regional relations between tribal groups were limited, creating a diverse patchwork of isolated and distinct tribal groupings

How geographic factors isolated many tribes

-375,000 "Okies" and "Arkies" migrated out of the Dust Bowl Midwest to California ---142 agricultural workers for every 100 jobs by 1934 ---Wages fell to $0.15 per hours in Imperial and San Joaquin fields -Mexican repatriation ---Competition for agricultural jobs made Mexican workers a target ---Mexican nationals and Mexican Americans deported or forcibly repatriated -Film industry providing a relatively inexpensive ($0.15 per ticket) escape from reality, increasing the popularity of Hollywood films -Falling prices and rising surpluses forced production cuts in oil industry

-A continuous mark that can change direction, length, and width -Lines joined together form a shape -Line can also create an outline, silhouette, or contour -Artists often use line to define the edges of a form to lead your eye in a certain direction -Lines can be real or implied and their possibilities are endless (e.g., straight, curved, jagged, diagonal, horizontal, vertical, wavy, parallel, perpendicular, zigzag, or dashed) ---Horizontal lines can suggest a state of rest, continuity, and stability since objects are parallel to the earth are often at rest ---Horizontal lines can also give a sense of space ---Vertical lines communicate a sense of strength, rigidity, or height, and artists often use vertical lines to suggest spirituality, or reaching toward the sky ---Diagonal lines often communicate an opposition or movement, while curved lines communicate a sensual or softening quality

Line

-The actual definition of the word. -Not figurative; accurate to the letter; matter of fact or concrete. "Winter's end" is the end of winter.

The multiplicative inverse of a number (also known as the reciprocal of the number) is a value that, when multiplied with any non-zero number, equals 1. Any non-zero number multiplied with its multiplicative inverse equals 1. The multiplicative inverse of a (a ≠ 0) is 1/a For any number a (a ≠ 0), a x 1/a = 1 Example: 4/5 x 5/4 = 1

Multiplicative inverse

-Teachers help students become aware of space, basic movement, effort, and cooperative activities -Students are expected to make smooth transitions between sequential locomotor skills -Activities should be noncompetitive

Early grades

1. The importance of social and multicultural education should be emphasized in the classroom 2. Classroom teaching should emphasize inclusion, providing an environment for all students to think and learn. Isolating a child inhibits his ability to develop 3. When assessing a child, teachers should understand the difference between what a child can do on his own and what the child can do with some help (zone of proximal development) 4. Teachers should recognize that children can often perform, with an adult's or older peer's help, a task that they may have otherwise been incapable of completing on their own (scaffolding) 5. Teachers should be organizing, not dictating, a child's development using guided practice. Teachers initially assume responsibility for problem solving, but gradually allow the responsibility to transfer back to the child 6. Parents play a key role as significant contributors in the child's intellectual development

Educational implications of Vygotsky's sociocultural theory

The ability to get up into the air and remain there long enough to perform various movements or poses

Elevation

-Practice can be spaced out over time (distributed practice) or completed in one instructional period (mass practice) -Distributed practice generally leads to more effective learning, especially in the early stages -Therefore, students practice a number of different skills during each class period -Practice can involve the entire skill (whole practice), or the skill can be broken down into small unites (part practice) ---Example: The triple jump involves a hop, a skip, and a jump. Whole practice would involve performing the hop, skip, and jump together. Part practice would involve practicing the hop, then practicing the skip, and then practicing the jump.

Encourage practice

-Erickson helped to transform Freud's traditional psychosexual perspectives on human development -Early childhood experiences helped to permanently shape personality -Personality develops through a series of conflicts that are influenced by society during age-related time periods -8 stages of age-specific crises that we pass through in order to create equilibrium between society and ourselves -Each stage centers on a unique developmental task that must be confronted and negotiated -Children move to the next developmental crises, no matter what the outcome, even when the outcome is not favorable and may lead to later adjustment problems -The crisis is considered a turning point in a child's life when successfully mastered

Erickson's Psychosocial Stages of Development

-Erosion in many places is increased by human land use -Poor land-use practices include deforestation, overgrazing, unmanaged construction activity, and road building -Land that is used for the production of agricultural crops generally experiences a significantly greater rate of erosion than that of land under natural vegetation -This is particularly true if tillage is used, which reduces vegetation cover on the surface of the soil and disturbs both soil structure and plant roots that would otherwise hold the soil in place -Improved land-use practices can limit erosion by using techniques such as terrace building, conservation tillage practices, and tree planting -A certain amount of erosion is natural and healthy for the ecosystem, but excessive erosion can cause damage by excessive loss of soil

Erosion and land use

Two numbers multiplied under a radical (square root) sign equal the product of the two square roots, and likewise with division. Example: √(4)(25) = √4 x √25 = 2 x 5 = 10 or √(4)(25) = √100 = 10

-Mechanization and the factory system were introduced -The growth of labor unions resulted from problems caused by industrialization -Social, economic, and political changed became evident -The rise of cities paralleled the industrial growth of America -The need for government intervention increased ---The Sherman (1890) and Clayton (1914) Antitrust Acts restricted the power of giant corporations ---Workmen's compensation laws, child labor laws, and regulations on working conditions and minimum wages were part of the congressional reform movement to improve the plight of the working man -The need for conservation of natural resources was a result of the continued industrial growth of America

Industrialization reflected changing attitudes and conditions

-What dominant object stands out as you first look at the composition? -What is your first emotional response to the composition? What is the mood? -What do you believe the artist is trying to convey? -What is the historical, cultural, or social context? What is the time, style, and place of composition? Apply these answers to the the elements and principles of art: -How are the lines in the composition arranged (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally)? -How is color used to show contrast, highlight an area, or create a mood? -What are the spatial relationships? Are objects far or near? -Where are the light and dark areas in the composition? How does light enhance directionality? Does it "lead" the viewer? -What types of shapes are used? Geometric? How do the various shapes affect the composition as a whole? -What textures are used in the pictures? What feelings do the textures convey? -Does the composition include depth, linear perspective, or atmospheric perspective? -Is the composition balanced (symmetrical or asymmetrical)? How is the balance achieved? -What elements are repeated? Do the various elements contrast with or complement each other?

Major battles of the Civil War

-1803 -Situation: President Adams appointed Marbury justice of the peace just before his term ended. He signed the commission, but it was never delivered. Jefferson, the next president, refused to honor the commission because it wasn't delivered by the end of Adams's term. Marbury petitioned directly to the Supreme Court to force Secretary of State Madison to deliver the documents. The Supreme Court only had original jurisdiction over certain matters. The issue was whether or not this included issuing a writ of mandamus (an order from a superior court to a lower court/government officer to do something, which is what Marbury wanted). Jefferson said it didn't. Marbury said it did, basing his claim on the Judiciary Act of 1789 (passed by Congress). -Questions: Does Article III of the Constitution create a "floor" for original jurisdiction, which Congress can add to, or does it create an exhaustive list that Congress can't modify at all? If Article III's original jurisdiction is an exhaustive list, but Congress tries to modify it anyway, who wins that conflict, Congress or the Constitution? Who decides who wins? -Decision: Marbury had the right to his commission, but the court did not have the power to force Madison to deliver the commission. -Significance: Raised the important question of what happens when an Act of Congress conflicts with the Constitution. Chief Justice Marshall answered that Acts of Congress that conflict with the Constitution are not law (unconstitutional) and the Courts are bound instead to follow the Constitution, affirming the principle of judicial review.

Marbury v. Madison

-The amount of matter in a chemical substance -In everyday usage, mass is commonly confused with weight

Mass

-1819 -Situation: Congress had chartered a national bank. The state of Maryland opposed the concept of a national bank and placed high taxes on the bank. The bank's officer refused to pay the tax, and Maryland sued the national government for payment. -Questions: Did Congress have the authority to establish a national bank? If Congress had such authority, did a state have the authority to tax a federal institution? -Decision: A national bank is constitutional. The court also stated that a state does not have the authority to tax a federal institution. -Significance: Established the concept of implied powers or powers not directly stated in the Constitution. The court stated that Congress has the authority to make all laws that are necessary and proper. This decision strengthened the national government and limited the power of the states.

McCulloch v. Maryland

-Cell division -Division of the parent cell's genome into two daughter cells -The genome is composed of a number of chromosomes that contain genetic information vital for proper cell function -Because each resultant daughter cell should be genetically identical to the parent cell, the parent cell must take a copy of each chromosome before mitosis -This occurs during S phase, the interphase period that precedes the miotic phase in the cell cycle where preparation for mitosis occurs -Each new chromosome now contains two identical copies of itself, called sister chromatids, attached together in a specialized region of the chromosome known as the centromere

Mitosis

-Made by combining two or more different materials without a chemical reaction occurring (the objects do not bond together) -They are the product of a mechanical blending or mixing of chemical substances -Each ingredient substance retains its own chemical properties and makeup (for example, a mixture of salt and pepper would still be identifiable as -While there are no physical changes in a mixture, the chemical properties of a mixture, such as its melting point, may differ from those of its components -Mixtures can usually be separated into their original components by mechanical means -Either homogeneous or heterogeneous

Mixture

Modern Era (1900s)

When an object is in motion, it will remain in motion until there is an outside force that acts upon it Example: When a basketball is thrown toward a basket, there can be few outcomes. If the ball is thrown using very little strength, the effects of gravity (an outside force) will overcome the velocity of the ball and it will fall short of the basket. If the ball is throw with too much strength, the ball will overcome the effects of gravity and hit the back board (another outside source) and change its direction.

Newton's first law

-The law of inertia -Without outside forces (such as gravity or friction), an object at rest will remain at rest, while an object in motion will never stop or deviate from its course

Newton's first law of motion

-If one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal force on the first object but in the opposite direction -For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction Example: When a baseball player uses a bat to hit a pitched ball, the force with which the bat hits the ball (and angle) causes the ball to move in an equal and opposite force and direction.

Newton's third law

-Recognition that objects and events continue to exist even when they are not visible Example: In the absence of object permanence, an infant will not search for the object when the object is hidden—"out of sight, out of mind" -Piaget believed this ability could not be mastered until about 8 months old, but more recent studies have shown that infants as young as three months old appeared to know that objects did not disappear when out of sight

Object Permanence

-Catching involves using the hands to stop and control a moving object -During the early stages of learning, it is more difficult for children to learn to catch than to throw because tracking the object requires mature hand-eye coordination -Children often fear being hit by the object, so early instruction can begin with beach balls, balloons, and fleece balls -As children develop gross and fine motor abilities, instruction should include reducing the size of the object to catch ---This helps children develop perceptual abilities -Instruction should include practice in catching balls that bounce up from the floor to teach rebound angles

Object manipulation skills: Catching

-Striking takes place when an object is hit with an implement such as a bat, a racket, or the hand -Striking involves movement of the body to create the force necessary for the maximum speed of the object -Instruction should include practice on stationary objects in primary grades before children can progress to moving objects ---Example: T-ball, in which the ball is placed on a "T" stand and struck

Object manipulation skills: Striking

-The breakdown of the ozone layer is primarily the result of an increase in chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in the atmosphere -CFCs are found in products used for refrigeration, air conditioning, insulation, or any products that use Freon -Ozone depletion was detected over Antarctica -An increase in UV radiation, which the ozone layer blocks, could alter the genetic makeup of phytoplankton (the tiny organisms at the beginning of the food change) -That same increase in UV could lead to an increase in skin cancer -Ozone depletion is not directly related to the greenhouse effect

Ozone depletion

-A "passing" position in which the foot passes by the knee of the supporting leg -When this position is held, as in pirouettes, with the foot of the working leg resting against the knee of the supporting leg, it is known as retiré

Passé

-The smallest unit of sound/part of spoken language that makes a difference in the meaning of words -English has about 41 -Sometimes represented by more than one letter Examples: "oh" (/o/), "if" (/i/ /f/), "stop" (/s/ /t/ /o/ /p/), "check" (/ch/ /e/ /k/)

Phoneme

-A broad term that includes phonemic awareness -It includes identifying and manipulating larger parts of spoken language, such as words, syllables, and onsets and rimes, as well as phonemes -It also encompasses awareness of other aspects of sound, such as rhyming, alliteration and intonation

Phonological Awareness

Initiate the clotting necessary to stop bleeding after a wound

Platelets

-Refers to hearing a note and being able to reproduce it either vocally or with an instrument -Vocal cords and musical instruments produce vibrations in the air; as the frequency of these vibrations change, the pitch changes -The faster the vibration, the higher the pitch -The slower the vibration, the lower the pitch -Intonation refers to whether the pitch of a particular note is played in tune, sharp (higher), or flat (lower)

Pitch

-Encompasses works written in verse, perhaps with a meter and rhyme scheme, and uses written language in a pattern that is sung, chanted, or spoken to emphasize the relationships between words and ideas on the basis of sound as well as meaning. -This pattern is frequently associated with a rhythm or meter, and may be supplemented by rhyme or alliteration of both. -A more condensed and refined medium than is prose or everyday speech; it often includes variations in syntax and more frequent and elaborate use of figures of speech, principally metaphor and simile -All human cultures have their own, although it is used for a wide variety of purposes -Generally employed in statements and writings that call for heightened intensity of emotion, for dignity of expression, or for subtlety of contemplation -Valued for combining the aural pleasures of sound with the tempting freshness of ideas, whether these ideas are solemn or comical -3 major categories: narrative, dramatic, lyric

Poetry

-A closed figure formed with line segments which are called the sides -Poly means "many" and gon means "sides"; thus, polygon means "a many-sided figure"

Polygon

An algebraic expression that consists of two or more terms separated with either addition or subtraction Examples: x + y (a polynomial with two terms) x² + 3x - 4 (a polynomial with three terms)

Polynomial

Proportion

-Body awareness -The sense of being aware of movement in different parts of the body -Helps children maintain a sense of personal boundaries, develop patterns of movement through space, understand the concept of shape, and sustain a sense of balance

Proprioception

-The major architectural feature of Western theatres since the Renaissance, the proscenium arch is essentially an opening in the wall between two rooms -In one room (the stagehouse), the actors perform; in the other room (the auditorium), the audience is located -The arch itself can range from extremely elaborate and intrusive to nearly undetectable

-1865-77 -Attempted to reunite the nation -Following the Civil War, the economic, political, social, and military reconstruction of the South was necessary -The president and Congress differed on how to reconstruct the South ---The presidential plan emphasized tolerance for the defeated South ---The congressional (Radical) plan emphasized the use of military force in treating the South like a conquered territory

Reconstruction

Fraction must be reduced to its lowest terms. This is done by finding the greatest common factor (GCF) for both the numerator and denominator and then dividing both the numerator and denominator by that value. Example: Reduce 24/36 Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36 GCF = 12; divide numerator and denominator by 12 and you get 2/3

Emphasis was on the sonata and symphony, and included the introduction of dissonance to create emotion; featuring virtuoso performers

Romantic Period (1820-1900)

A number in scientific notation is written as a rational number from 1 to 9, and then multiplied by a power of 10 -For original values larger than 1, the exponent on the 10 will be positive -For original values between 0 and 1, the exponent on the 10 will be negative Examples: 2,100,000 = 2.1 x 10^6 Place the decimal point to the right of the first non-zero digit reading from left to right and then count how many places it was moved to get there.

Scientific notation

A child's ability to arrange objects in logical progression (concrete operations) Example: A child arranges sticks in order from smallest to largest

Seriation

-Shape and form help to define objects on a piece of art -Shapes are often defined by a continuous line that meets to create a closed shape -Artists use contour line to create dimension -Shapes have two dimensions, height and width; and form has three dimensions, height, weight, and depth -Geometric shapes (e.g., circles, squares, etc.) have uniform measures, but natural, organic shapes are related to things that appear in the natural world (e.g., plants and animals) -Repeated shapes and forms create patterns Example: This painting of a woman bathing a child by Mary Cassatt (1893), The Bath, is a good example of the use of form. Inspired by the work of Edgar Degas and Japanese prints, this artist uses bold circular contour shapes of figures, a basin, and a pitcher. Notice the rounded, natural forms created to illustrate clear, crisp, lively patterns.

Shape (form and contour)

-The chromosomes align themselves in a line spanning the cell -Microtubules, essentially miniature strings, play out from opposite ends of the cell and shorten, pulling apart the sister chromatids of each new chromosome -As the cell elongates, corresponding sister chromosomes are pulled toward opposite ends and a new nuclear envelope forms around the separated sister chromosomes -Eventually, the mother cell will be split in half, giving rise to two daughter cells, each with an equivalent and complete copy of the original genome

Sister chromatids

-Refers to dances in which socializing is the main focus; therefore, a dance partner is essential -The popularity of competitive social dancing has helped many of these dance styles become household names -Social dance styles include hip-hop, line dance, ballroom, waltz, foxtrot, tango, rumba, jive, and swing

Social dance

Developing social interaction among students including communication, cooperation, encouraging and praising others, practicing respectful criticism, and accepting individual differences

Social interaction

-The materials left over after the rock breaks down combine with organic material to create soil -The mineral content of the soil is determined by the parent material; thus, a soil derived from a single rock type can often be deficient in one or more minerals for good fertility, while a soil weathered from a mix of rock types often makes more fertile soil

Soil

A quadratic equation is an equation that could be written as Ax² + Bx + C = 0. To solve a quadratic equation: -Put all terms on one side of the equal sign, leaving zero on the other side -Factor -Set each factor equal to zero -Solve each of these equations Example: Solve for x. x² - 6x = 16 x² - 6x - 16 = 0 (x - 8)(x + 2) = 0 x - 8 = 0 --> x = 8 or x + 2 = 0 --> x = -2 Check by inserting your answer in the original equation.

Solving quadratic equations

-Although space can refer to real three-dimensional space, artists refer to space within the boundaries of the composition -Space helps the composition look like it has form and gives the artwork a feeling of depth -Artists use both positive and negative space to influence how an object might appear -Negative space is the space between or around the object

Space

-The Reconquista reestablished Christian control over Muslim Spain in 1492, Portugal in 1250 ---The Spanish state was marked by strong, absolutist rule ---The monarch instituted inquisitions and also expelled the Jews

Basic trust vs. mistrust -Gaining a sense of trust during infancy helps to set the stage for a lifelong expectation of feeling safe and secure in the world -The infant can count on others to satisfy his or her needs, while feeling loved and cared for -This basic experience of interacting with an attentive caregiver gives the infant a lifelong feeling of security and predictability -The absence of trust can result in leaving the infant feeling suspicious, guarded, and withdrawn from relationships

Stage 1 (1 1/2 years)

-Bodies similar to the sun but immensely distant -Closest stars are 4 light-years away -Speed of light is 186,000 miles/second -Distance to closest stars can be calculated by measuring the parallax, a slight shift in apparent position against the background of more distant stars as the earth travels around the sun -Stars with the highest surface temperature appear blue, while stars with the lowest surface temperature appear red

You may have to borrow from the whole number, just like you sometimes borrow from the next column when subtracting ordinary numbers. Example: 4 1/6 - 2 5/6 = ? 4 1/6 - 2 5/6 = 3 7/6 - 2 5/6 = 1 2/6 = 1 1/3 To subtract a mixed number from a whole number, you have to borrow from the whole number. Example: 6 - 3 1/5 = ? 6 - 3 1/5 = 5 5/5 - 3 1/5 = 2 4/5

Subtracting mixed numbers

Subtract = add the opposite; change the sign of the number being subtracted, and then proceed as an addition problem Example: 12 - (-4) = 12 + 4 = 16

Subtracting signed numbers

-Cause pressure differences -A hot surface heats the air above it and the air expands, lowering the air pressure and its density -The resulting horizontal pressure gradient accelerates the air from high to low pressure, creating wind, and the earth's rotation then causes the curvature of the flow through the Coriolis effect -The atmosphere is a chaotic system, and so small changes to one part of the system can grow to have large effects on the system as a whole -This makes it difficult to accurately predict weather more than a few days in advance

Surface temperature differences

-A form of reasoning in which two statements are made and a conclusion is drawn from them. -Begins with a major premise ("All tragedies end unhappily") followed by a minor premise ("Hamlet is a tragedy") and a conclusion ("Therefore, Hamlet ends unhappily.")

Syllogism

-SELECT THE MATERIALS ---List the specific materials to be used in the experiment ---This allows for replication of the experiment -SET UP THE PROCEDURE ---State the specific plan on how to test the hypothesis ---Create a written, step-by-step procedure -Determine the variables (any factor that can change in an experiment) ---Independent variable (manipulated variable): this is the one factor that will be intentionally changed during the experiment. Examples include changing the amount of salt that is added to water to determine its freezing point; introducing different soil types in germinating seeds; and changing the pendulum length to determine frequency ---Dependent variable (responding variable): This is the variable that changes as a result of the manipulated variable. The dependent variable is observed and measured. Examples include determining how long various saltwater solutions take to freeze, and determining the number of cycles a pendulum swings if the weight of the bob changes ---Variables that are controlled: These are the factors that are kept exactly the same in an experiment. In an experiment on plant growth, the variables could include amount of sunlight, type of soil, amount of water, and type of plant. Only one factor at a time is changed, while all other factors are kept constant. -COLLECT DATA (RESULTS) ---Analyze the data to look for patterns or trends ---Record measurements and observations during the experiment ---Present data in a graph, table, or another form

Thrust staging

-The unique tonal quality of a musical sound -The tone "color" -It could be described as bright, shrill, brittle, or light; or it could be dull, harsh, forceful, or dark -Not only does each type of instrument have a distinct tone, but each instrument can also have a different tone from other similar instruments -Timbre makes one instrument sound different from another -For this reason, timbre has a great effect upon the mood of the music -For example, all violins have the same tone qualities, as do all clarinets and all trumpets, yet each instrument, due mainly to its manufacturer, has a different timbre or tone quality

Timbre

-The learning of one skill can have a positive or negative effect on the learning of another skill -When the impact is positive, it is called a "positive transfer of learning" -When the impact is negative, it is called a "negative transfer of learning" -Providing students with information about the ways in which skills are similar helps them positively transfer the appropriate learning from the first learned skill to the second ---Example: The overhead movement pattern is used in the overhand volleyball serve, tennis serve, and badminton smash. When learning the tennis serve, after having learned the volleyball serve, students should be alerted to the similarities between the two serves. -Differences between skills are brought to the attention of the students to minimize the potential interference of the first skill in the learning of the second skill ---Example: At the elementary level, students are alerted to the differences between galloping and skipping at the time when the second skill is taught.

Transfer learning

-The ability to draw conclusions about a relationship between two objects by knowing the relationship to a third object (concrete operations) -If A = B and B = C, then A and C are equal Example: If you know that Danielle is taller than Ghazaleh, and Ghazaleh is taller than Maria, then Danielle must be taller than Maria

Occurs when children take existing schemes and adjust them to fit their experience Example: A preschool child plays with the keys on a piano to hear the different sounds of musical notes. When he tries this with an electric keyboard, he quickly learns that the keyboard must be turned on before it can be played. He must accommodate this new information to fit the experience.

Accommodation

Allusion

-A segment that goes from a vertex of the triangle and makes a 90° angle with the opposite side, known as the base -Sometimes, the opposite side needs to be extended in order to accomplish this In △ABC, segment AD is the altitude from vertex A. In this case, the base, segment BC, needs to be extended in order for the segment AD to be able to make a 90° angle with the opposite side. In △QRS, segment RT is the altitude from vertex R. Segment RT makes a 90° angle with the base, segment QS.

Analogy

-Understand the meaning of all the words in the poem, especially words you think you know but which don't seem to fit in the context of the poem. -Understand the grammar of the poem. -Beware of skewed word order (i.e. a direct object before the subject and verb: "His sounding lyre the poet struck" means the poet played his harp, not that he was hit by a musical instrument.)

Analyzing Poetry: Is the meaning clear?

Think about: -The parts/structural divisions of the poem and how they are related to each other -The punctuation -Repetitions (i.e. parallel syntax or the use of a simile in each sentence) -The logic of the poem. Does it ask questions and then answer them? Develop an argument? Use a series of analogies to prove a point?

Analyzing Poetry: What is the structure of the poem?

-Can mean the mood or atmosphere of a work or a manner of speaking, but its most common use as a term of literary analysis is to denote the inferred attitude of an author -Author's attitude may be different from that of the speaker (usually the case in ironic works)

-The infant readily separates from the parent and actively avoids the parent upon reunion (e.g., child moves away, looks away, or ignores the parent upon the parent's return) -Children who are anxious-avoidant tend to have difficulty trusting, avoid playing with other children, and become anxious if someone tries to get too close

Anxious-Avoidant Attachment

-The infant becomes anxious before the caregiver leaves and is upset during the caregiver's absence (e.g., child cannot separate to explore or play; the child may hit, cry, or kick upon the parent's return) -Children who are anxious-resistant might feel skeptical about trying new things, feel that others can't be trusted, feel angry much of the time, and push away those why try to get close

Anxious-Resistant Attachment

Attitude

-Hearing the sounds of music -Children engage in attentive listening and further develop aural acuity -This means that children must be able to hear and reproduce the tones of music in their minds when no sound is actually being produced

Auditory skills

-Children who have an auditory-perceptual disability may find it difficult to distinguish between the differences in sounds -Teachers will often observe these children as appearing to be lost or confused when called upon in the classroom -Teachers frequently comment that these children are not paying attention in the classroom, when in reality, they may be struggling to hear what is being said -Sometimes even subtle disabilities in hearing may prevent the child from understanding the full content of classroom material

Auditory-Perceptual Disability (Hearing Difficulty)

-Represented by periods of: ---Rapid growth from infancy to early childhood ---Slow, steady growth in middle childhood ---Rapid growth spurts during puberty ---Gradual, measured, slow growth during adolescence -Changes in body proportions have an important influence on how movement skills and fitness activities are preformed ---Example: The rapid changes in the length of a child's legs can affect movement activities that require running.

Average physical changes that occur in children

-Children can learn from operating in the environment -When children operate in the environment, their behavior response produces a consequence of either a reinforced reward or punishment -This associative learning process helps children to associate their actions with a positive or negative consequence -Behavior that is reinforced (rewarded) will tend to be strengthened -Conversely, behavior that is not reinforced will tend to be eliminated or extinguished

B.F. Skinner's Operant Conditioning

-Balance is a sense of visual stability in a composition -It is the harmonious arrangement of elements in order to create a feeling of equilibrium -When a composition is symmetrical, it gives the feeling that weight is equally distributed ---This is called formal balance since this is a classical appearance of formality -When a composition is asymmetrical, there is a visual emphasis, or pull, to one side of the composition ---This is sometimes called informal balance Example: Think about a seesaw or scales. When the seesaw is equally weighted, it is symmetrical. When the seesaw is not weighted equally, it is asymmetrical.

Balance: symmetrical and asymmetrical

-Built in areas with high concentration of native population -Church, workshops, kitchens, living quarters, and storerooms constructed from materials on hand -Cultivation of cereal grains, grapes, fruit trees, and olives; raising of livestock

California missions: organization

-Convert Native Americans to Christianity and teach them the Spanish way of life (both the sword and the cross were used to subdue Indians) -Provide agricultural land and food staples for the emerging Spanish population -Create permanent and self-sufficient Spanish settlements in Alta California ---With the hope of attracting Spanish settlers to California and discouraging English and Russian colonization of California -Defend Spanish empire to the south in Mexico

California's Progressive Reforms

-The primary chemical element in these compounds -Has a great affinity for bonding with other small atoms, including other carbon atoms -Its small size makes it capable of forming multiple bonds and makes it ideal as the basis of organic life -It is able to form small compounds containing three atoms (such as carbon dioxide), as well as large chains of many thousands of atoms that are able to store data (nucleic acids), holds cells together, and transmit information (protein)

Carbon

Symbol: C Protons: 6 Neutrons: 6 Mass: 12

Carbon

-During preschool, children cannot yet think logically about cause and effect -Children believe that their thoughts can cause actions, whether or not the experiences have a casual relationship -Children reason by transductive reasoning (preoperational) Example: A child is unkind toward her baby cousin, and shortly thereafter, the baby is accidentally hurt. The child believes that somehow she caused the accident for having "bad thoughts" about the baby.

Casual Reasoning/Casuality

Level 1 (age 3): Reality is defined by appearance -"When I move along, the clouds move along too." Level 2 (age 5): Child appeals to an all-powerful force -"God moves the clouds." Level 3 (age 7): Child appeals to causes in nature -"The sun moves the clouds." Level 4 (age 10): Child now approaches an adult explanation -"Clouds move because of wind currents."

Casual reasoning changes over time

-Can influence climate by sending tremendous volumes of dust, ash, and smoke into the atmosphere -The resulting dust layer would act as a shield, blocking out much of the sun's rays -This would result in lower global temperatures and a general cooling of the earth -Scientists theorize that massive volcanic eruptions on a global scale contributed to the earth's cooling, resulting in the onset of the Ice Age

Cataclysmic volcanic eruptions

-British violations of U.S. neutrality because of Britain's ongoing war with France -British seizure of American merchant vessels -British practice of "impressment" (stopping U.S. merchant ships and forcing American sailors into service for the British navy) -British support of American Indian tribes against American expansion -Conflict over frontier land -"War Hawks" (those who favored war) in Congress advocated pushing the British out of the frontier and even expelling them from Canada

-The smallest amount of living matter, a bit of organic material that is the unit of structure and function for all organisms -Range in size from the smallest speck visible through an electron microscope to the yolk of the largest egg -Some tiny organisms like bacteria are one celled, but all larger organisms are composed of many cells arrayed in tissues -Although an isolated cell may be spherical, the cells packed together in plant or animal tissue have flattened walls -The essential subdivisions of a cell are the cell membrane, the cytoplasm, and the cell nucleus

Cell

-A membrane-enclosed organelle found in all eukaryotic cells -Contains most of a cell's genetic material, organized as multiple long and linear DNA molecules in complex with a large variety of proteins, such as histones, to form chromosomes -The genes within these chromosomes are the cell's nuclear genome -The function of the nucleus is to maintain the integrity of these genes and to control the activities of the cell by regulating gene expression

Cell nucleus

Multiply the whole number by the denominator, add the numerator, and then place that value over the denominator Example: 6 2/5 --> (5 x 6) + 2 = 32 --> 32/5

Changing a mixed number to an improper fraction

Divide the denominator into the numerator Examples: 24/3 --> 24 ÷ 3 = 8 19/5 --> 19 ÷ 5 = 3 4/5

Changing an improper fraction to a whole or mixed number

-Read it -Write it -Reduce it Example: .8 = eight-tenths = 8/10 = 4/5

Changing decimals to fractions

-Move the decimal point two places to the right -Insert a percent sign Example: .75 = 75%

Changing decimals to percents

-Multiply by 100 -Insert a percent sign Example: 2/5 --> 2/5 x 100 --> 200/5 --> 40%

-According to the U.S. Advisory Board on Child Abuse and Neglect, child abuse can be classified in four categories: physical abuse, physical neglect, sexual abuse, and emotional maltreatment -Causes of child maltreatment include lack of parenting skills, economic stressors, lack of education, or adults repeating generational family abuse -A child's reaction to abuse varies greatly depending upon the child, the experience, its frequency, and what is done about it -Children must be allowed to work through whatever range of feelings they have surrounding the abuse, but the two most common feelings are anger and sadness

Child abuse and neglect

-A.D. 960-1279 -The Chinese Empire lost much territory after the fall of the Tang rulers -Advances in education, art, and science contributed to an improved way of life

Chinese civilization under the Sungs

-Began with the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth (compassion for the poor and downtrodden) -Emphasized the Holy Bible as the word of God, the sacraments as the instruments of God's grace, and the importance of a moral life for salvation -Paul of Tarsus (Paul the Apostle), an early Jewish convert to Christianity, was responsible for the spread of Christian theology and the resulting response from the Roman empire (opposition/resistance; Christianity firmly rooted in the collapsing world of Roman rule)

-Understanding proper documentation and bibliographic citation is essential -Using a style manual, such as The Chicago Manual of Style or that of the Modern Language Association (MLA), is most helpful

Citing Sources

-Refers to the lexicon of dance as taught in the original academies -This is also used in reference to ballets as created during the Imperial Russian days, such as The Sleeping Beauty, The Nutcracker, and Swan Lake -This also refers to a style of performing that was developed over the years in France, Italy, Denmark, and Russia, or the kind of dancing that comes from that style

Classical

-Cool-down exercises are just as important as warm-up exercises -Current research indicates that cool-down activities (e.g. simple calisthenics, breathing exercises, and light walking) are as essential to preventing injuries as warm-up exercises

Classroom fitness activity: Cool-down exercises

Instructional components provide students with step-by-step instruction as stated in the components of fitness, the FITT model, and the guidelines for developing a lesson

Classroom fitness activity: Instructional components

-Physical activity provides students with a targeted activity (e.g. dribbling a basketball) along with modeling of the activity and verbal cues -K-3: Activities should be non-competitive -4-9: Activities should be related to sports -All activities should be: ---Safe ---Enjoyable (promoting self-image) ---Inclusive ---Developmentally appropriate

Classroom fitness activity: Physical activity

The point of highest interest in a novel, short story, or play in terms of the conflict, the point with the most action, or the turning point for the protagonist.

Climax

-Most institutions collapse when the purpose in establishing them is no longer relevant -When the last mission was established in Sonoma in 1823, the move to secularize the missions was in full swing -The Mexican Revolution of 1821 ended centuries of Spanish domination over Alta California -During the Mexican period, there was a dramatic decline in the importance of the missions -Converting the Indians to Christianity was no longer relevant, and the development of farming communities (pueblos) eliminated the agricultural purpose for maintaining the mission system -By 1834, the secularization/privatization of the missions was complete

Collapse of the mission system

-Usually translated to mean "as follows"; should never be used after "is," "are," "was" or "were" when presenting a series. -To introduce a formal appositive, list, summary, quotation, example or other explanatory material whether or not the words as followed or the following are used. ---The following attended (or, Those who attended are as follows): Bob, Mary, Jack, and Sue. ---Patrick Henry's words were the rallying cry of the revolt: "Give me liberty or give me death!"

-Visible light reflected off objects -Artists use color to imitate the colors of reflected and refracted light -Can be used in a composition to create a symbolic representation of mood and emotion Example: The colors red, orange, and yellow are warm colors. When gazing at a composition with warm colors, people often feel their body temperature rise since these warm colors are symbolic of the sun, heat, and fire. The opposite is true for the colors green, blue, and purple, which suggest cooler colors. People tend to have relaxed, calm, and peaceful feelings with cool colors. Three main qualities: -Hue -Value -Intensity

Color

-A small Solar System body that orbits the Sun -When close enough to the sun, exhibits a visible coma (atmosphere) or a tail, both primarily from the effects of solar radiation upon the comet's nucleus -Comet nuclei are loose collections of ice, dust, and small rocky particles, measuring a few kilometers or tens of kilometers across -Have a variety of different orbital periods, ranging from a few years, to hundreds of thousands of years, while some are believed to pass through the inner Solar System only once before being thrown out into interstellar space

Comma

-One recurring truth of mythology is that whatever happens among the gods and other mythical beings is in some way a reflection of human events on earth. -Many themes and motifs recur in the myths of various cultures and ages. -A common theme in many cultures explains the creation of the world; these range from a god fashioning the earth from abstract chaos to a specific animal creating it from a handful of mud. -Other myths of cyclical destruction and creation are paralleled by myths of seasonal death and rebirth. -Another common theme is the idea of a long-lost golden age of seeming perfection from which humanity has degenerated (i.e. The Garden of Eden) -The motif of a gigantic flood is extremely widespread; it is one element of a group of myths that concern the destruction and re-creation of the world or a particular society. -Other recurring myths explain the origin of fire or it's retrieval from some being that refuses to share it, the expectation of transcendent changes in the millennium to come, or the complex relationships between the living and the dead.

Common Themes in Literature

A fraction whose numerator is smaller than its denominator; has a value less than 1. Example: 3/5

Common fraction

The order in which addition or multiplication is done does not affect the answer

Communicative property

a + b = b + a Example: 2 + 3 = 3 + 2 5 = 5 Note: Subtraction does not have the communicative property. 3 - 2 ≠ 2 - 3 1 ≠ -1

Communicative property for addition

-In the broadest sense, all of the people associated with producing a play, including the designers, technicians, directors, stage managers, and actors -In the narrowest sense, the concept of "the company" is confined to the actors alone

Company

-Pairs of colors that sit opposite one another on the color wheel and do not share any common characteristics -Example: Purple is directly opposite from yellow, making them complementary colors -If mixed together, they produce a neutral color such as gray -Artists use complementary colors to create contrast that can be interpreted as vibrant and stimulating

Compounds

-Population explosion resulting from the Gold Rush transformed California, politically, socially, and economically -In less than 2 years, California had enough citizens to apply for statehood -National question was whether California would be a slave or free state -At the time, the Senate was equally divided between slave and free states at 15 each. As long as this balance remained, the South could block any antislavery legislation from passing Congress. -California became a free state and the balance was upset, shifting to the North. In effect, antislavery legislation could pass through Congress. -Fearing a loss of political power, the South threatened to leave the Union -The Compromise of 1850 averted a constitutional crisis when the South accepted California statehood in return for the Fugitive Slave Law, which made it illegal to harbor runaway slaves -The Compromise of 1850 was only a temporary fix. The issue of slavery would continue to to dominate national politics. -California statehood became a background issue to the Civil War

Compromise of 1850

Concepts of physical fitness

-Body composition is the proportion of body fat to lean body mass -It is the amount of fat in relation to the percentage of non-fat in the total body mass -It is measured by the thickness of selected skin folds

Concepts of physical fitness: Body composition

-His plan came in direct conflict with the agricultural interests of the South -The southern states were against expanding the power of the federal government at the expense of the rights of the states -His plan for a protective tariff designed to protect domestic industries against foreign competition especially angered the South -The industrial sector of the country was primarily in the North, and Hamilton's plan to protect the American manufacturer seemed to offer little in the way of direct benefit to the South -Led directly to the rise of political parties in the new nation, with the Federalists favoring a strong central government and the Anti-Federalists favoring strong state governments

Conflicts with Hamilton's financial plan

-Concern from both Federalists and Jeffersonians about whether the purchase was unconstitutional -Napoleon did not have the right to sell the land (Louisiana was Spain's before it was France's, and Spain specified in the Treaty of San Ildefonso that the land was not to be sold) -Concern with whether the French, Spanish, and free blacks living there should be made citizens -Concern from Federalists that the farmers of the west would clash politically with/threaten the power of the merchants and bankers of the east coast states -Concern that an increase in slave holding states created out of the new territory would exacerbate divisions between north and south

Connotative meaning

The combination of tones that produces a quality of relaxation

Consonance

-Gives the reader and writer a sense of appropriateness for different writing situations (for example, one follows different writing conventions when writing a letter to the editor, an essay, a diary entry, a descriptive piece, or a letter of complaint) -Often dictates the appropriate tone, as well as vocabulary, organization, etc.

Context

-What is portrayed in theatre; namely, the interaction of at least one character with some aspect of his or her environment -Since the portrayed interaction is normally with another person (or an aspect of the natural environment endowed with human qualities), the content of theatre is a character-character interaction

Context

-Theory that the earth's continents were originally united as a supercontinent, Pangaea -Established by Alfred Wegener in the early 1900s Examples to support Wegener's theory: -Paleontology: Fossil evidence indicates the similarity of fossils on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean -Continental "jigsaw puzzle": The outlines of the continents seem to fit together—for example, the eastern coast of South America and the western coast of Africa -Paleoclimatology (study of ancient climates): Ancient coral reefs (associated with warm water) are found in areas that could not currently support such growth -Sea-floor spreading: ---The discovery of tectonic plate movement and sea-floor spreading provided proof for Wegner's theory ---The oceanic floor is not stationary ---The plates move because of incredible amounts of released energy ---During sea-floor spreading, new oceanic crust forms ---The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is an example ---In response to ocean-floor movement, the ocean floor expands in opposite directions ---Continents spread apart and away from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge

Continental drift

Multiplication outside parentheses distributing over either addition or subtraction inside parentheses does not affect the answer a(b + c) = ab + ac a(b - c) = ab - ac Examples: 7 (3 + 9) = 7(3) + 7 (9) 7 (12) = 21 + 63 84 = 84 5 (12-3) = 5(12) - 5(3) 5(9) = 60 - 15 45 = 45 Note: You cannot use the distributive property with only one operation. 3 (4 x 5) ≠ 3(4) x 3(5) 3 (20) ≠ 12 x 15 60 ≠ 180

Distributive property

-Transferring of heat by the circulating motion of particles (in liquid or gas) -Occurs when hot air is less dense than cool air and therefore rises -When the heat moves in a circular pattern, convection currents are formed -Heat can be transferred by the circulation of fluids due to buoyancy from changes in density Examples: -The upward flow of air due to a fire or hot object -The circulation of water in a pot that is heated from below -For a visual experience of natural convection, a glass full of hot water with red food dye may be placed in a fish tank with cold, clear, water. The convection currents of the red liquid will be seen to rise and fall and then eventually settle, illustrating the process as heat gradients are dissipated.

Convection

-The temporary "rules" of the performance -The conventions of the theatre are specific to particular cultures, styles of theatre, and even individual productions

Conventions

-Occur when two plates push together -Such faults are strong and relatively deep -Where the strongest earthquakes occur Example: mountain building in the Himalayas and the Andes

Development of feudalism and a samurai warrior-class

Word choice; any word/detail that is important to the meaning and effect of the writing.

Diction

-The motive force behind land breezes and sea/lake breezes, also known as on- or off-shore winds -Land absorbs and radiates heat faster than water, but water releases heat over a longer period of time -The result is that, in locations where sea and land meet, heat absorbed over the day will be radiated more quickly by the land at night, cooling the air -Over the sea, heat is still being released into the air at night, and rises -This convective motion draws the cool land air in to replace the rising air, resulting in a land breeze in the late night and early morning -During the day, the roles are reversed -Warm air over the land rises, pulling cool air in from the sea to replace it, giving a sea breeze during the afternoon and evening

Differential heating

In the modern theatre, the major interpretive figure, whose job it is to bring to life the vision of the playwright or otherwise provide artistic meaning to the theatre experience

Director

-Designed to separate substances in a liquid through vaporization -Usually carried out in an apparatus called a still, which requires a boiler, a condenser, and a receiver Example: Purify ocean water -Heat the ocean water until it reaches its boiling point -As the ocean water boils, it begins to evaporate and change from a liquid to a gas, in the form of water vapor -The gas goes through tubing to a collector container -The container sits in ice, which accelerates the condensation from water vapor back to liquid (or from a gas to a liquid) -The condensed water is pure water -Salt and other impurities remain as a residue in the original pan -Salt has a higher boiling point than water and therefore doesn't evaporate with the water

Distillation

-Occur when two plates pull away from each other -Such faults are generally weak and shallow Example: the Mid-Atlantic Range in the Atlantic Ocean

Divergent plate movements

-The same as dividing other numbers, except that if the divisor (the number you're dividing by) has a decimal, move it to the right as many places as necessary until it is a whole number -Move the decimal point in the dividend (the number being divided into) into the same number of places -Sometimes you may have to add zeroes to the dividend (the number inside the division sign) Example: 5 ÷ 1.25 = 500 ÷ 125

Dividing decimals

-The Abbasids overthrew the Umayyads—the capital moved from Damascus (Syria) to Baghdad -Iberian and North African Muslims broke with Baghdad's control

Division of the Muslim Empire

-High tariffs passed in 1832 led to the Nullification Crisis of that year -Vice president John C. Calhoun supported South Carolina's nullification legislation that allowed a state to nullify an act of Congress -South Carolina said that the federal government could not collect the tariff -Compromise of 1833 lowered the tariff -President Jackson still threatened to send in Federal troops to stop nullification -South Carolina repealed the Ordinance of Nullification -This issue intensified the sectional issue that would lead to the Civil War

Doctrine of Nullification

Editing

1. Piaget's theory of cognitive development provides an alternative to behavior theorists' belief that children are merely passive learners. Children actively move through operational stages. 2. Piaget quantified the conceptual-learning process, suggesting that there are predictable and orderly developmental accomplishments. Children can be tested at each stage to verify their level of cognitive understanding. 3. Piaget suggested that a child's mind seeks a state of equilibrium. At each stage, children form a new way to operate and adapt to the world. 4. By understanding Piaget's stages of cognitive development, teachers can avoid presenting material in the classroom that is beyond the child's cognitive ability.

Educational implications of Piaget's Stages of Cognitive Development

1. Although infant attachment is not the only path to social competence in children, teachers should recognize the importance of secure attachment as a key role in observable secure relationships 2. Teachers should be aware that cultural diversity is an important variable in the effects of social competency among children 3. Teachers should recognize that the emotional bond between the child and his parent may be unconsciously transferred to the relationship between the teacher and the child 4. Children who can securely self-regulate and who believe they can achieve have a greater ability to successfully face difficulties and master academic learning material

Educational implications of attachment

1. Teachers can be assured that through repetition (and based upon the child's experience), learning is predictable 2. Teachers can help children be successful by making their world more orderly and predictable 3. Teachers will recognize that a child's learned experiences can account for later behavior patterns

Educational implications of classical conditioning

1. Teachers must be aware that the process of language development is multifaceted, including physical sounds, cognitive thought, and social interactions 2. Teachers should recognize that language cognitively, linguistically, and emotionally begins at home. Parents play an active role in teaching language to children. Adults teach language to children through infant-directed speech, recasting, echoing, expanding, and labeling 3. Teachers should recognize that children will acquire the use of English even when their native language is the only language spoken at home 4. Since the work of Vygotsky supports the notion that language is essential to the development of thinking, teachers should support appropriate private speech in order to help children self-regulate and access a higher level of functioning

Educational implications of language development

1. Teachers must recognize that children internalize what is right and wrong based upon their basic values and sense of self 2. Teachers must recognize the sequential foundation upon which higher moral principles are based 3. Teachers must recognize that children respond differently to various moral dilemmas depending upon age, education, and socioeconomic influences

Educational implications of moral development

1. Teachers can use behavior modification in the classroom as a learning tool (altering the environment or situation to produce a more favorable outcome) 2. Teachers can reinforce positive behavior to produce subsequent desirable behaviors (e.g., positive feedback, praise, or gold stars) and not reinforce undesirable behaviors

Educational implications of operant conditioning

1. Teachers must encourage play since much of the child's cognitive advances in learning take place during play 2. Teachers must be aware of age-appropriate forms of play for classroom activities and encourage imaginative play whenever appropriate 3. Teachers can use play to help children release physical energy 4. Teachers should be aware that play helps children to build social interactions among peers

Educational implications of play

Any exponent means to multiply by itself that many times Example: 5³ = 5 x 5 x 5 = 125 x¹ = x and x^0 = 1 when x is any number other than 0

Exponent

1. Teachers can better manage the classroom by knowing the different temperaments (the introverted child, the conversationalist, the class clown, etc.) 2. By understanding that temperament is different for each child, teachers can plan individualized approaches specific to each child 3. Teachers can help children feel validated by affirming their temperament attributes. This helps children to look at themselves positively 4. Teachers should be aware that environmental manipulations, such as culture, influence temperament

Educational implications of temperament

-The medieval political unity of Europe was replaced by the spirit of modern nationalism -The authority of the state was strengthened -The middle class was strengthened -Calvinism gave capitalism its psychological base -Religious wars reflected the fervor of the times

Effects of the Reformation

Until about age 5, young children cannot differentiate between their own perspectives and feelings and someone else's (preoperational). Example: While speaking on the phone with her father, a child says, "See my new shoes."

Egocentrism

-Officially defined as sustained sea surface temperature anomalies of magnitude greater than 0.5°C across the central tropical Pacific Ocean -El Niño is characterized by unusually warm ocean temperatures in the eastern equatorial Pacific ---El Niño's warm current of nutrient-poor tropical water, heated by its eastward passage in the Equatorial Current, replaces the cold, nutrient-rich surface water of the Humboldt Current, also known as the Peru Current, which supports great populations of fish -La Niña is characterized by unusually warm ocean temperatures in the same area ---Atlanta tropical cyclone activity is generally enhanced during La Niña -The La Niña condition often follows the El Niño, especially when the latter is strong

El Niño and La Niña

-The path or circuit an electric current flows -Electricity requires a complete path for the electrons to flow -If the path is broken and there are not alternative paths for the electrons to follow, the electrons will not move -Electric circuits make it possible for electric energy to operate a vast range of technology

FITT Guidelines: Intensity

-Check to see if you can monomial factor (factor out common terms). Then, if A = 1 (the first term is simply x²), use double parentheses and factor the first term. Place these factors in the left sides of the parenthesis. For example, (x )(x ) -Factor the last term, and place the factors in the right side of the parentheses To decide on the signs of the numbers, do the following. If the sign of the last term is negative: -Find two numbers whose product is the last term and whose difference is the coefficient (number in front) of the middle term -Give the larger of the two numbers the sign of the middle term, and give the opposite sign to the other factor If the sign of the last term is positive: -Find two numbers whose product is the last term and whose sum is the coefficient of the middle term -Give both factors the sign of the middle term If A ≠ 1 (if the first term has a coefficient different than 1 — for example, 4x² + 5x + 1), then additional trial and error will be necessary

Factoring polynomials that have three terms: Ax² + Bx + C

-Find the square root of the first term and the square root of the second term -Express your answer as the product of the sum of the quantities from step 1 times the difference of those quantities Example: x² - 144 x² - 144 = (x + 12)(x - 12)

Flashback

-A gas-discharge lamp that uses electricity to excite mercury vapor -The excited mercury atoms produce short-wave ultraviolet light that then causes a phosphor to fluoresce, producing visible light -Unlike incandescent lamps, fluorescent lamps always require a ballast to regulate the flow of power through the lamp -However, a fluorescent lamp converts electrical power into useful light more efficiently than an incandescent lamp; lower energy costs offset the higher initial cost of the lamp -Compared with incandescent lamps, fluorescent lamps use less power for the same amount of light, generally last longer, but are bulkier, more complex, and more expensive than a comparable incandescent lamp

Fluorescent lamp/fluorescent tube

-Most important and only reliable food for the majority of California Indians, including Indians of the foothills, was acorn nuts (the nuts of oak trees) -Almost all California Indians depended on acorn meal because oaks grew in most parts of California -After pounding the acorn kernel into a powder, Indians used water to leach the acorn's bitter tannic acid. The resulting meal could be boiled into a mush, baked into cakes, or stored -Coastal and river Indians ate fish -Few Indians included large game animals as a regular part of their diet -Seeds and berries were a part of the Indians' diet because grasses and wild oats covered many hills and valleys -Yucca plants were used as both a food and a basket source

Food of California Indians

-Traces of ancient life preserved in the strata as shells, footprints, and the like -Soft plant and animal tissues decompose quickly in the presence of decay bacteria, which exist wherever oxygen exists -Therefore, softtissue would most likely avoid decomposition and survive as a fossil in the most oxygen-free environment, such as lake-bottom mud -Because life has evolved (changed) continually through geological history, the fossils in older strata differ from those found in more recent deposits Example: The earliest fossil-rich beds have many trilobites, early crab-like creatures that have been extinct for hundreds of millions of years; discovery of fossil trilobites in a formation permits assignment of that bed to an early period

Fossils

-Extremely unlikely that France, with an absolute monarch in King Louis XIV, would have embraced the ideals of the Declaration of Independence (which declared that the people had inalienable rights, governments were set up to serve the people, and unjust governments that usurped the power of the people should be overthrown) -France saw the American Revolution as a means to weaken the military and political power of the English (a weaker England wold in turn result in a stronger France) -France still resented the loss of Canada to the English as a result of the Seven Years' War (1756-63)

-Precipitation -Canopy interception -Snowmelt -Runoff -Percolation -Subsurface flow -Evaporation -Sublimation -Condensation

Hydrologic concepts

-Sun heats water in the oceans -Water evaporates as vapor into the air -Ice and snow can sublimate directly into water vapor -Evapotranspiration: water transpired from plants and evaporated from the soil -Rising air currents take the vapor up into the atmopshere where cooler temperatures cause it to condense into clouds -Air currents move clouds around the globe and cloud particles collide, grow, and fall out of the sky as precipitation -Some precipitation falls as snow and can accumulate as ice caps and glaciers, which can store water for thousands of years -Snow packs can thaw and melt, and the ensuing water flows overland as snowmelt -Most precipitation falls back into the oceans or onto land, where the precipitation flows over the ground as surface runoff -A portion of runoff enters rivers, with stream flow moving water towards the oceans -Runoff and groundwater are stored as freshwater in lakes -Not all runoff flows into rivers; much of it infiltrates into the ground through percolation -Some water infiltrates deep into the ground and replenishes aquifers, which store huge amounts of freshwater for long periods of time -Some infiltration stays close to the land surface and can seep back into surface-water bodies (and the ocean) as groundwater discharge -Some groundwater finds openings in the land surface and emerges as freshwater springs -Over time, the water reenters the ocean, where the water cycle started

Hydrologic cycle

Natural numbers

-The process by which favorable and heritable traits become more common in successive generations of a population of reproducing organisms, and unfavorable heritable traits become less common -The mechanism by which evolution may take place within a given population of organisms -One of the cornerstones of modern biology -Was introduced by Charles Darwin in "The Origin of Species"

Natural selection

-Plays of the neoclassic period, or plays modeled after them, in which Renaissance writers attempted to recapture the glory of theatre in ancient Greece and Rome -Particularly in 17th- and 18th-century France, this effort was aided by the application of certain rules of playwriting, such as the unities (action, place, time), the enforced use of rigid verse forms, and the general concern for "decorum" on the stage

Neoclassic drama

-Dominated the culture of the 18th century -There was an attempt to revive the classic style and form of ancient Greece and Rome -In literature, the novel was the outcome; in architecture, the Rococo style was dominant -In music, Haydn and Mozart emphasized the Classical era's formal symmetrical structures, simple rhythms, and tuneful melodies. Beethoven influenced both the Classical and Romantic periods.

Neoclassicism

-A nerve cell with short dendrites that carry electrical impulses to the body, and a long axon, the outgoing fiber along which the impulse is transmitted further -Sensory neurons conduct signals from the sense organs to the central nervous system, the spinal cord, and the brain -Motor neurons transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscles

Neuron

-The relationship between an object's mass, acceleration, and applied force -Continuity of movement is responsible for producing the maximum force and velocity Example: To illustrate this concept of force, teachers can have upper-grade students sit in a chair while trying to throw a basketball into a hoop. Students should recognize their inability to follow through with motion. They should then ask the students to throw the basketball when standing up. The force of the entire body in motion should produce an accelerated velocity that results in a force-producing movement to achieve the desired result of the ball reaching the basketball hoop.

Newton's second law

-Astronomer -Challenged the Church doctrine of a geocentric (earth-centered) theory of the universe (Ptolemy's theory; was the prevailing thought for more than 1,000 years) -Believed that the sun was the center of the solar system, and the earth moved around it -Proposed and published his heliocentric (sun-centered) theory -Theories were rejected by the Catholic Church

Nonlocomotor skills

-Pushing is a controlled, forceful action performed against an object ---It moves the body away from the object while applying force -Pushing should exert force with steady, even, and controlled effort ---The student accomplishes this action by broadening and supporting the base of the body while placing the body in a forward stride position -The line of force is directed toward a specific target -Teachers should instruct students to maintain a reasonable alignment in their back as the body builds up force for the push

Nonlocomotor skills: Pushing

-The most valuable of all nonlocomotor movements -Its movement carries body parts away from the body's center core and moves joints and muscles through a range of movements -All physical education activities should begin with a stretching warm-up exercise -Teachers should understand that some discomfort is normal, but stretching is necessary for maintaining and increasing flexibility -Ask children to stretch as far as is comfortably possible while keeping their movement smooth

Nonlocomotor skills: Stretching

-Energy taken from finite resources that will eventually dwindle, becoming too expensive or too environmentally damaging to retrieve -Fossil fuels include coal, petroleum, and natural gas -Fossil fuels are limited and nonrenewable and contribute to global warming -When fossil fuels are burned, they release trapped energy in the form of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere -Carbon dioxide and methane are major greenhouse gases -The burning of coal also contributes to the formation of acid rain

Nonrenewable energy

-Based on the inevitability of the South having to fight a defensive war -Primary objective: capture the capital (political symbol of the south) ---South was relying on recognition from France and England to further its objective of secession (France and Eng remained officially neutral throughout the war) ---If the Southern capital fell, the North was certain the foreign countries would see the South as an unsustainable political entity ---The North also hoped that capturing Richmond would force the South to surrender quickly ---Took 4 years (failed attempts: Bull Run in 1861 and Peninsular Campaign in 1862, after which the North abandoned its plan for the immediate capture of Richmond) -Blockade the South's Atlantic seaports, cut off trade, and economically strangle the South -Divide the South at the Mississippi River; controlling the river would geographically split the Confederacy east and west, forcing the South to fight a two-front war and and limiting the supply avenues open to the South (river came under Union control with the fall of Vicksburg in 1863)

Northern military strategy

-Kicking is a striking action performed by the feet -Types of kicking: ---Punt kicking is described as the ball being dropped from the hands and kicked before it touches the ground ---Place kicking is described as placing the ball on the ground and kicking it from the stationary position ---Soccer kicking is a form of kicking that requires an extension of the hip to increase the range of motion -Instruction should include reducing the size of the projectile object as skill levels develop

-The war was being fought because of the expansionist goals of the West -The war was unpopular in the Northeast, which viewed the war as a land grab by western war hawks who wanted to obtain Canada for the United States -The war intensified the sectional interests developing in the country following the Revolutionary War -The Federalist opposition to the War of 1812 harmed its credibility as a political party and led to its demise

Opposition to the War of 1812

In optics, refraction occurs when light waves travel from a medium with a given refractive index to a medium with another index Example: A ray of light will refract as it enters and leaves glass, assuming there is a change in the refractive index. Understanding this concept led to the invention of lenses and the refracting telescope.

-Linear perspective is a technique for representing three-dimensional objects on a flat surface -During the Renaissance, artists invented this technique based upon math principles in order to give paintings a realistic appearance -The technique shows that when converging lines meet at a single vanishing point, the human eye perceives objects at a distance -When our eyes focus on the vanishing point, all shapes and objects become smaller, giving us the illusion of depth and distance -Larger objects appear closer, and smaller objects appear more distant -The lines of buildings and objects are slanted to make them appear at a distance Example: In the Basilica di San Lorenzo (San Lorenzo Church) in Florence, Italy, notice that the design of this church was influenced by perspective. Notice the vanishing point at the end of the alter.

Perspective: linear

-A continuous drill would find gas, oil, and water in that order -The three substances occur in their order of density, with the lightest substance on top and the heaviest on the bottom -Gas is lighter than the two liquids, and so it is on the top -Oil floats on water, and so it is second -On the bottom is the most dense substance, water

-A grooved wheel with a rope or other item wrapped around it -Pulleys are used to change the direction of an applied force, change the amount of force, transmit rotational motion, or realize a mechanical advantage in either a linear or a rotational system of motion -A pulley helps an individual lift an object by spreading the weight of the object over the length of the rope Example: -Raising and lowering window blinds -Diagram 1 represents a double pulley. As effort is applied (pulling power), the load (weight) is raised. In this system, the load moves only half the distance that the rope is pulled. However, the force raising the load is double the effort pulling the rope. In this system, the pulleys provide a 2-to-1 mechanical advantage. -Diagram 2 represents a multiple-pulley system. In this system, less strength is used to accomplish the same lifting height as in diagram 1. The workload does not change; however, less force, and consequently less effort, is needed. In this system, the load moves one-third the distance that the rope is pulled, and the pulleys provide a 3-to-1 mechanical advantage. -In both diagrams, the top pulley is only a change of direction and does not provide any type of mechanical advantage.

Pulley/block

Rome's economic problems

-No formal system in place to choose Roman emperors; some chosen directly by the emperor, others were heirs to the throne, others were able to buy the throne -Informal and corrupt process of succession resulted in weak and ineffective rulers and many political assassinations -By the end of the fifth century, the emperors were so weak that they were the puppets of the military, often bribing the army to stay in power

Rome's political problems

-Begins at about the end of early childhood, but is most popular during middle childhood -Can be in the form of tag, chasing, wrestling, etc.

Rough-and-tumble play

-Landlocked, did not have a geographical outlet to the Mediterranean -The Ottoman Empire was centered in Turkey, whose borders include the Black Sea (north) and the Mediterranean Sea (south) -Historically, a characteristic of Russian foreign policy from the 17th century onward was to obtain permanent access to the Mediterranean -A port on the Black Sea would allow Russia to better control its own destiny -Britain and other European countries prevented the territorial expansion of Russia in the direction of Turkey (European objective was the to maintain the current balance of power) -The most notable attempt by Russia to upset the balance resulted in Russian defeat during the Crimean War (1853-56)

Russia and the Ottoman Empire

-1800s -Resulted in renewed Spanish efforts to colonize California -Russian fur interests in Alaska pushed southward -Russians established Fort Ross 80 miles north of San Francisco Bay in 1812 as a trading post -The American government also viewed Russian exploration of the California coast as a threat ---The Spanish reacted to potential Russian, British, and American presences by establishing presidios (military forts) and pueblos (small settlements) in valleys around San Francisco Bay

Russian excursions along the north American coast

-A form of Greek drama that coexisted with tragedy in the classical period -Little is known of the satyr play except that it seems to have been a burlesque of the same ideas presented in tragedies, ridiculing the gods and heroic legends, using the bawdiest language, dance, and song to do it

Slope values will be opposite reciprocals

Slope of perpendicular lines

-The slope of a line gives a number value that describes its steepness and the direction in which it slants -Positive slope, negative slope, zero slope, undefined/no slope -Slope is calculated by comparing the rise (the difference of the y-values) to the run (the difference of the x-values), when going from one point to another -The m in the y = mx + b Example: Using the points (-2,10) and (-1,8), we can calculate the slope the following way: Slope = rise/run = (10-8)/[-2 - (-1)] = 2/-1 = -2 Regardless of which two points were chosen, the slope value would be the same Line falls as it goes to the right, indicating that the slope is negative

-Expanded Darwin's theory of evolution to include society as a whole -Darwin, in "On the Origin of Species" (1859), theorized that evolution is a continuous process in which successful species adapt to their environment in order to survive -The social Darwinists viewed society as a "struggle for existence"; only the "fittest" members of society would survive -The accumulation of wealth was considered a visible sign of a successful adaptation, and virtue and wealth became synonymous -For social Darwinism to succeed, it was thought that a free and open economic system was needed -Capitalism was regarded as the "natural environment" in which "survival of the fittest" could be tested -The social Darwinists also believed that some races were superior to others, that poverty indicated unfitness, and that a class-structured society was desirable

Social Darwinism

South: -Economy dependent on King Cotton and slave labor -Northern criticism viewed as an attack on Southerners' entire way of life North: -Economy more industrial than agricultural; based on free labor -Modernity and progress; no future for feudal Southern society

Social-economic differences between North and South

-Characterized by their ability to retain their shape -Relatively incompressible -Melt when heated and vaporize only slightly -All substances become solid if cooled sufficiently Examples: rocks, crystals, wood, feather, ice

-The Union strategy of isolating the South proved successful -The Union blockade economically strangled the South -The defeat at Gettysburg (1863) ended the Southern chances for foreign recognition -Economic and military weaknesses, along with a devastated South, led to Lee's surrender at Appomattox (1865)

Southern defeat

-Alta California was a colony of Spain. California not viewed as a reliable source of revenue -Spanish colonization didn't start until the late 18th century. Spanish presence never strong enough to enforce restrictions on trading with non-Spanish merchants. -Spanish colonization was built on three strategies: ---Missions: Self-supporting religious centers. 21 missions built between 1769-1823. ---Presidios (garrisons): Established to provide costal defense and protection to the pueblos and missions. ---Pueblos (towns): Developed to provide agriculture for the presidios and as population centers.

Spanish rule in California

-Athens and Sparta were the most important city-states in ancient Greece; both developed a unique culture and distinct political structure -Developed a totalitarian and militaristic state dependent on slave labor to sustain its agricultural system; state owned most of the land -Warrior state, dependent on a superior military (result of constant threat of rebellion) -Essential for Spartans to be subservient to the interests of the state in order to maintain power -The purpose of government was to keep up the military strength of the state -The rigid structure of Spartan society allowed the Spartans to rule even though Spartan citizens were outnumbered by noncitizens by about 10 to 1 -Large families discouraged -At birth, all Spartan males belonged to the state; by age seven, boys enrolled in military-style camps -Spartan way of life extended to mothers examining newborn children to determine of they were healthy; those that were not were left to die -After defeating the Persians, conflict between Athens and Sparta dominated Greek politics

Autonomy vs. shame and doubt -The toddler learns how to explore, experiment, make mistakes, and test limits in order to gain a sense of independence and self-reliance -Toddlers are into everything at this age, and many people refer to this period as the "terrible twos" -It is difficult to keep the toddler under control -If autonomy is inhibited or punishment is harshly inflicted, the toddler may feel a sense of shame -Shame leaves the toddler feeling a sense of dislike for himself -He may also be reticent to try new activities

Stage 2 (1 1/2-3 1/2 years)

-Development of symbolic thought and imagination is boundless -In striving to understand their world, around age 5, children begin to ask a multitude of "why" questions -Children can reason intuitively, and representational thought has emerged -Children continue to make errors in spoken language -There is a dramatic difference in the child's development as each year passes -Children love to hear stories, sing songs, and recite nursery rhymes -Independent and cooperative play become important during this stage -By about age 6, a child's language development (particularly the child's ability to be a better conversationalist) is dramatically different from that of a 2-year-old -Language increases rapidly as children learn many new words each day

Stage 2 - Preoperational Period: Early Childhood (2-7 years)

Autonomy vs. guilt -Building upon the successes from the previous stages, children at this age feel free to try out new activities and assume greater responsibility for their bodies and their behavior -This new balance of responsibility helps the preschooler have a positive view of self, gives confidence to his decision-making ability, and imparts a willingness to take risks -Unique aspirations surface, and children begin to show definite signs of emerging personalities -The absence of initiative may leave the child feeling a sense of guilt, sometimes about almost anything -The child may feel like anything he does may disappoint people around him

Stage 3 (3 1/2-6 years)

-Child has ability to solve simple problems while thinking about multiple dimensions of information -Children can now "think about thinking" (metacognition) -Children understand the world through trial and error -Children cannot yet think abstractly, but they do understand the distinction between appearance and reality if presented in terms of tangible objects -Child has clear sense of seriation, transitivity, reversibility, and conservation -Child has the ability to set his own values as he becomes more subjective in moral judgements

Stage 3 - Concrete Operations Period: Middle Childhood (7-11 years)

Industry vs. inferiority -Industry refers to children learning to work with others while developing skills and feeling a sense of achievement -Children who have successfully completed this stage feel a greater sense of competence in adult life -If successful at accomplishing a sense of industry, the children demonstrate the ability to organize and meet goals -If inferiority outweighs industry, low self-esteem may result -Sometimes these children may appear lazy or lack goals and motivation

Stage 4 (6-12 years)

-Mental transformations experienced during adolescence are logical and continue to progress beyond the skills developed during childhood -Adolescent has the ability to reason abstractly and solve complex problems, thus expanding possibilities for understanding the world -Adolescents now have the ability to perform hypothetical-deductive reasoning and can integrate what they have learned in the past to consider the many future possibilities

Stage 4 - Formal Operations Period: Adolescence (12 years-adult)

Identity vs. role confusion -The physical changes in adolescents awaken the search for self-identity, breaking dependent ties and providing a framework for adult life -Teens push to figure out who they really are, which helps them cement a solid sense of self -This sense of self is interpreted as unique from others and instills an identity that is communicated as an inner confidence and sense of one's place in the world -Experimenting with identities is common during this age -Failing to make this transition may result in confusion over life goals and self-identity

Stage 5 (12-18 years)

1. Interphase: The cell grows to its mature size. The cell is preparing to divide into two cells and make a copy of its DNA. 2. Prophase: The chromatin in the nucleus condenses condenses to form chromosomes. The centromere holds the two chromatids of a chromosome together. Spindle fibers form a bridge between the ends of the cell. 3. Metaphase: The chromosomes are lined up along the center of the cell. The chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers developed during prophase. The centromere holds the chromatids together. 4. Anaphase: The centromeres split and the two chromatids separate. The chromatids move to opposite ends of the spindle fiber. The cell is preparing for cell division and becomes stretched as the opposite ends pull apart. 5. Telophase: The chromosomes begin to stretch out in both regions at the end of the cell. A new nuclear membrane forms around each area of the chromosome. The cell is now ready for division into two daughter cells with identical chromosomes.

Stages of mitosis

-1765 -Imposed the first direct tax on the American colonies, requiring a tax on all printed materials. -Colonial reaction: ---"Sons of Liberty" (political group of American patriots formed to protect colonists' rights) used violence and intimidation against British stamp agents. ---The "Stamp Act Congress" (delegates from 9/13 colonies who met to discuss the Stamp Act) sent a petition to King George III. ---The boycott extended to include all British goods.

Stamp Act

Stamp Act Repealed; Declaratory Act Passed

-One based on the assumption that all members of a given group possess certain simple behavioral traits -Hence, a few swift strokes of character development (a dialect, a distinctive walk, a costume, and so on) suffice to communicate the stereotype to the audience -Contrasted with the "unique character," who shares nothing of consequence with any other person and whose life experiences have created a character that is, taken as a whole, entirely distinct from all others

Stereotyped character

Storyboard

-The layers of sediment deposited in a quiet environment -Common sites of deposition are lakes, deltas at the mouths of rivers, beaches and sandbars along the coast, and (most important) the marine environment -Commonly very extensive laterally and relatively thin vertically, like a blanket -Law of original horizontality: most sediments were deposited in beds that were originally horizontal, and any tilting is due to later earth movements -Law of superposition: younger beds were originally deposited above older beds

Strata

-These curvy, wooden-shaped bodies are the largest family of the orchestra -Strings stretch over the body and neck of the instrument and attach to small ornamental heads where they are tuned by turning pegs -The violin, viola, cello, and double bass form a symphony orchestra's string section -The smaller instruments (violin and viola) make higher-pitched sounds, and the larger instruments (cello and double bass) produce low, rich sounds -They are usually played with a bow, but they may also be plucked (pizzicato) -Harp and guitar are two other string instruments that are not considered part of the string section of the orchestra; they are often plucked rather than bowed

-A collective set of inborn traits that help to construct a child's approach to the world -Based upon the child's mood, environment, activity, and threshold for reacting to stimulation Three basic groups: 1. The "easy" child is generally in a positive mood and adapts easily to new situations 2. The "difficult" child tends to cry frequently and is slow to accept change to new situations. This child has irregular daily routines 3. The "slow-to-warm-up" child shows slow adaptations to new situations, but slowly accepts new situations when repeatedly exposed

Temperament

-The pace of the beat -The speed at which a composer desires his musical composition to be performed -Measured by the number of beats per minute -A metronome is a machine that helps musicians adjust rates of speed (tempi) for faster or slower beats -The faster the tempo, the more beats per minute -Tempo is an important component to change the expressiveness of character and mood of the musical composition ---For example, if the tempo is fast, the mood of the music changes to reflect more energy, aggression, or vitality -Most marches are performed at a rate of 120 beats per minute Italian terms that define tempo: -Presto: very fast -Allegro: fast -Moderato: moderate -Adagio: slow -Largo: very slow

Tempo

-Used to describe the way a composition might actually feel, or the way it might appear to feel with our eyes -Texture depicted in three-dimensional art has a tactile quality that can be physically touched (e.g., sculpture and architecture) -Texture depicted in two-dimensional art gives you a "sense" of how an object might feel when touched, but you cannot physically touch the object ---Examples: Collage or other works of art where artists creatively use color, line, and shape to simulate the object

Texture

The Scientific Revolution

-About 400 miles long and follows the eastern border of the state, forming the eastern wall of the Central Valley -The mountains were formed through extensive uplifting and subsidence and are characterized as fault-block mountains. The backbone of the range is igneous rock. -They are the highest mountains in California, with many serrated peaks around 13,000 feet. Mount Whitney is located at the southern end. -The peaks have sharp drop-offs on the eastern side and have been a barrier to east/west transportation. The mountains have gentle slopes on the western side, which has trapped water to the benefit of Central Valley agriculture. -Sierra Nevada streams cut deep valleys. Gold was discovered in these streams where it was eroded from veins in the rocks. -The Sierra Nevada causes a rain-shadow effect: Clouds rise against the high mountain peaks, causing them to drop their moisture. This has created fertile valleys on the west side and a dry landscape on the east side. -Ice glaciers have created the current mountain profiles. Yosemite National Park's U-shaped valleys were carved by glacial action -Southern California is dependent upon the average, annual 70 inches of rain and snow that fall on the Sierra Nevada for its water supply

The Sierra Nevada (the Snowy Range)

-The first system of independent states -The first system of writing (cuneiform and hieroglyphics) -The first massive architectural achievements (ziggurat and pyramid) -The first lasting monotheism -The beginning of science, mathematics, and astronomy -The first codification of law

The brain

-Originated in India (1500 B.C.) as part of the teachings of Hinduism -Divided people into four distinct and inflexible social groups: priests and teachers; rulers and warriors; merchants and artisans; and peasants and servants (the lowest caste) -People who did not belong to any group were the untouchables -Members of one caste could not marry or even eat with members of another caste -No amount of success would allow a person to move from one caste to another -Outlawed in 1950

The caste system

-An organ system that moves nutrients, gases, and wastes to and from cells, helps fight diseases, and stabilizes body temperature and pH to maintain homeostasis -Composed of the cardiovascular system, which distributes blood, and the lymphatic system, which distributes lymph -Humans and other vertebrates have a closed cardiovascular system, meaning the blood never leaves the network of arteries, veins, and capillaries -Works with the digestive system to provide the nutrients the system needs to keep the heart pumping -Includes pulmonary circulation and systemic circulation

The completion of the transcontinental railroad

Has been inferred from its astronomical properties and seismic records of earthquake waves that have traveled through the interior of the earth -Center: 3000°C (temperature rises from the surface to the center) -Core: 31% of the earth's mass; iron and nickel metals, melted by the extremely high temperature of the center of the earth -Mantle: Largest zone of the planet (68%); crystalline silicates, rich in magnesium, calcium, and iron; very hot and mainly solid, but local melting to magma is the source of volcanic eruptions -Crust: Less than 1% of the earth; this relatively thin zone (5 to 25 miles) contains the only rocks we can study, even in the deepest mines or drill holes

The earth's structure

Resulted in large-scale unemployment, bank failures, and foreclosures

The economic collapse of 1930

-Upton Sinclair (a reform candidate) ran unsuccessfully for governor on a platform for political change -The Utopian society promoted economic and social reform -The Townsend Plan favored pensions for the aged and a graduated income tax

The economic downturn renewed the call for political reform

-The election in 1860 of Lincoln, a sectional candidate, made secession inevitable -Sectionalism is loyalty to the interests of one's own region or section of the country, rather than the nation as a whole... Lincoln and the north were anti-slavery, so the south, fearing that its "right" to own slaves would not be protected, seceded

The election of Lincoln

-The government system and basis for society in the Middle Ages -The system was based on land ownership; person who was allowed by a lord to use his land was called a vassal and the land was called a fief -There were no formal countries, but the fiefdom held economic and political power -Under feudalism, political authority was dominated by the land-owning nobility -In return for protection against invaders, vassals were expected to be loyal to the landowner -Manorialism was the agricultural organization and economic foundation of feudalism

The feudal system

-Colonies: Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Connecticut -Geography: mountainous, rolling hills, rocky soil, cold to harsh winters, short summer, ports on the Atlantic -Economy: shipbuilding, fisheries, commerce, lumbering, small-scale manufacturing

The geography and economy of the New England colonies

-Colonies: Pennsylvania, New York, Delaware, New Jersey -Geography: open fertile plains, mild to cold winters, long summers, ports on the Atlantic -Economy: large-scale corn and grain production, commerce, small-scale manufacturing

The geography and economy of the middle colonies

-Colonies: Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia -Geography: broad, fertile coastal plains, warm winters, long and hot summers -Economy: cash crop farming, tobacco, indigo, rice, no measurable manufacturing

The geography and economy of the southern colonies

-Used to arrange strata in a standard order -Used to measure the amount of radioactive decay in minerals and calculate the time at which the rock formed -The earth is believed to be about 5.6 billion years old -The fossiliferous strata record is only the last 11% of the earth's history -Human civilization has lasted only 10,000 years -The immensity of geological time is the major discovery of geology -There has been ample time for very slow processes to produce large consequences

The geological time scale

-Encouraged by western expansion -The settlement of the West was aided by the Homestead Act (1862) and the transcontinental railroad (1869) ----When President Lincoln signed the Pacific Railroad Act (1862), it called for building a railroad from Omaha, Nebraska to Sacramento, California -Western industries were based on mining, cattle, and grain -Farmers and ranchers settled the Great Plains

The industrial development of the United States

-Inventions promoted industrial growth -Raw materials and geographic factors contributed to regional economic diversity -The development of communication and transportation aided the industrial growth of America -New methods of production such as division of labor, standardized parts, the assembly line, and mass production fostered the expansion of industry -Expanding markets at home and abroad encouraged industrial expansion -The development of the steel, mining, electric, petroleum, textile, and food-processing industries characterized the period -65% of industrial expansion was in the Northeast due to availability of abundant natural resources, access to the Great Lakes and ports for foreign shipments, abundant supplies of power, and availability of cheap labor (while rail travel aided the industrialization of the Northeast, the transcontinental railroad did not affect this growth)

The industrial growth/expansion of the United States

-Followed the War of 1812 (1816-23) -The scope and authority of the Supreme Court were established during this period -The Era of Good Feelings characterized the political successes of the Anti-Federalist Party (Anti-Federalists dominant, President Monroe downplayed partisanship) -The Monroe Doctrine defined American interests in the Western Hemisphere (stated that further efforts by European countries to colonize land or interfere with states in the Americas would be viewed as acts of aggression requiring U.S. intervention) -The new nationalism led to the development of a new American culture -The removal of the British from the northwestern frontier encouraged westward expansion

The new nationalism

-Arranges all of the known elements from left to right and top to bottom in order of increasing atomic number, and they generally coincide with their increasing atomic mass -Elements with similar properties fall into the same vertical columns to form groups or families -Properties of elements change greatly across any one row (period) -In each element's square, the chemical symbol is in the middle, the atomic weight is usually directly below the symbol, the atomic number is usually shown at the top of the square -As of 2006, the table contains 117 chemical elements whose discoveries have been confirmed -94 are naturally found on the earth, and the rest are synthetic elements that have been produced artificially in particle accelerators

The periodic table of the elements

-Steadily increased -Burgeoning birthrate; large families of 10 or more were common -Steady immigration from abroad -Europeans and Africans were the major population groups ---Europe: immigrants from England and other countries of western Europe ---Africa: forced arrival of approx. one-half million slaves

-1767 -A new series of taxes imposed on paper, tea, glass, lead and paint. -Colonial reaction: ---Boycott against British luxury items. ---Sam Adams of Boston issued the "Circular Letter" (pamphlet) to denounce taxation and coordinate reaction among the colonies.

Townshend Revenue Acts

-Children mentally connect specific experiences, whether or not there is a logical casual relationship (preoperational) -A child believes his thoughts will cause something to happen (see also Casual Reasoning) Example: Bill was mean to his little sister. His sister got sick. Bill reasoned that he made his sister sick.

Transductive Reasoning

-Heat tends to move from a high-temperature region to a low-temperature region -This heat transfer may occur by the mechanisms of conduction, radiation, and convection

Transfer of heat

-Reading and writing music -As children become familiar with reading and writing the language of music through notation, they develop cognitive associations of meaning -Their experience with sound helps children link visual symbols of music notation with sound -Learning is enhanced when teachers use learning in conjunction with singing and playing music ---For example, using memorization to understand time signatures would not produce the same benefits as if the students participated in playing or singing

Translative skills

P = a + b + c A = (bh)/2

-Method of using the present to interpret the past -Processes occurring today are observed carefully and their effects are measured -Then, geologists assume that similar effects in ancient rocks were caused by processes similar to those of the present Example: Glaciation in early eras is indicated by ancient deposits with features very similar to those produced by present-day glaciers.

Uniformitarianism

-An opening, or rupture, in a planet's surface or crust, which allows hot molten rock, ash, and gases to escape from below the surface -Volcanic activity involving the extrusion of rock tends to form mountains or features like mountains over a period of time -Volcanoes are generally found where tectonic plates are diverging or converging -A mid-oceanic ridge, such as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, has examples of volcanoes caused by divergent tectonic plates pulling apart -The Pacific Ring of Fire has examples of volcanoes caused by convergent tectonic plates coming together -By contrast, volcanoes are not usually created where two tectonic plates slide past one another -Volcanoes can also form where there is stretching and thinning of the earth's crust -Can be caused by "mantle plumes"; these so-called hotspots, as in Hawaii, can occur far from plate boundaries -Hotspot volcanoes are also found elsewhere in the Solar System, especially on rocky planets and moons -Volcanoes are also found in subduction zones, where the denser oceanic plates are forced under continental plates; this adds massive volumes of water to the mantle, allowing magma to melt more readily and rise to the surface to form volcanoes

Volcano

-In the category of a first-class lever -In its simplest form it consists of a rod attached to a wheel so that their movements are coupled when one of the parts is turned -The wheel and axle is used either as a force multiplier (such as a doorknob, steering wheel or fishing reel) or as a distance multiplier (such as on a bicycle or the driven wheels of a car) -In the first kind of application, the larger wheel is used to create more torque (in the axle) with less force -In the second kind of application, when the axle is turned, the outside of the wheel turns at a greater linear speed that is proportional to the ratio of the radii of the wheel and axle. For example, if a bike wheel has a gear that turns eight inches in one second, and the wheel circumference is eighty inches, the wheel rotates through a distance ten times greater than the gear (and reducing the number of rotations of the pedals required) -By varying the radii of the axle and/or wheel, any amount of mechanical advantage may be gained

Wheel and axle

-Comprises one global, interconnected body of salt water often (though generally recognized as several separate oceans) -A continuous body of water with relatively free interchange among its parts -Major oceanic divisions are defined in part by the continents, various archipelagos, and other criteria: these divisions are (in descending order of size) the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Southern Ocean and the Arctic Ocean -Smaller regions of the oceans are called seas, gulfs, bays, and other names -Oceans cover 3/4 of the earth's surface -The evaporation of these oceans is how we get most of our rainfall, and their temperature determines our climate and wind patterns -Life within the ocean had already evolved 3 billion years prior to the movement of animal and plant life on land

World/global ocean

Words we recognize or use in print

Reading Vocabulary

-Instruction encourages students to learn to answer questions better and, therefore, to learn more as they read -One type of instruction simply teaches students to look back in the text to find answers to questions that they cannot answer after the initial reading -Another type helps students understand question-answer relationships—the relationships between questions and where the answers to those questions are found -In this instruction, readers learn to answer questions that require an understanding of information

Answering Questions (text comprehension classroom activity)

Tests important concepts about books, including: -The front and back of a book -That print tells the story -The concept of letters, words, and sentences -That spaces have a purpose

Concepts About Print (reading assessment)

-Hints about the meaning of an unknown word that are provided in the words, phrases, and sentences that surround the word. Include definitions, restatements, examples or description -Because students learn most word meanings indirectly, or from context, it is important that they learn to use these effectively

Context Clues (vocabulary instruction)

-Allow students to easily eliminate inappropriate definitions based upon the context of a defined word. -For example, in searching for the definition of the word "board" in a dictionary, students can eliminate the wrong definitions of "board" by looking at the word in the context of the sentence -In this example, the definition of "board" is, "to get on a train, an airplane, a bus or a ship" -The teacher next has students substitute the most likely definition for "board" in the original sentence to verify that the sentence makes sense: "The children were waiting to 'get on' the buses"

Dictionaries and Other Reference Aids (vocabulary instruction)

-The ability to read a text accurately and quickly; when reading aloud, the ability to do so effortlessly and with expression (sounds natural, as if they are speaking). -Provides a bridge between word recognition and comprehension. Because they do not have to concentrate on decoding the words, they can focus their attention on what the text means. Readers recognize words and comprehend at the same time and focus their attention on making connections among the ideas in a text and between these ideas and their background knowledge. -Develops gradually over time and with practice. -To read with expression, readers must be able to divide the text into meaningful chunks (including phrases and clauses), know when to pause appropriately within and at the ends of sentences and when to change emphasis and tone.

Fluency

-A single word that expresses a complete thought -These include symbolic gestures, where the child shows an understanding that symbols (words) represent a specific object, desire, or event (e.g. blowing on food to mean "hot"), or representational gestures, which involve gesturing to show what the infant desires (e.g. holding up a bottle to show an infant wants more to drink)

Holophrase

For example, if reading a novel: -Choose a concept that is important to understanding the novel's plot (i.e. "taxes") -Engage the students in a discussion of that concept -Read a sentence from the book that contains the word and ask students to use context and their prior knowledge to try to figure out what it means -Ask students to use the word in their own sentence

Implement Strategies for Teaching Specific Words (vocabulary instruction)

1. Teachers help children recognize which words in a set of words begin with the same sound. ("Bell, bike, and boy all have /b/ at the beginning.") 2. Teachers help children isolate and say the first or last sound in a word. ("The beginning sound of dog is /d/." "The ending sound of sit is /t/.") 3. Teachers help children combine or blend separate sounds in a word to say the word ("/m/, /a/, /p/—map"). 4. Teachers help children break or segment a word into its separate sounds ("Up"—/u/,/p/).

Implications of Teaching Phonemic Awareness in the Classroom

1. Assess phonics and other word identification strategies. Select and use formal and informal tools such as decoding tests, fluency tests, and sight word checks to collect data, and analyze to plan instruction. 2. Plan instruction that is systematic, explicit, and sequenced according to the increased complexity of linguistic units including sounds, phonemes, onsets and rimes, letters, letter combination syllables, and morphemes. 3. Explicitly teach and model phonics, decoding, and other word identification strategies in reading for meaning. Positive explicit feedback for word identification errors is an essential strategy in this process. 4. Select and design resource material and strategies for assessment and instruction. Resources include materials for teaching decoding, word identification strategies, and sign word mastery in multiple and varied reading and writing experiences. 5. Provide fluency practice in a variety of ways: -Practice decoding and word-attack skills so that they become automatic in reading text. -Provide application and practice decoding skills to fluency in decodable (controlled vocabulary) text and word recognition skills taught out of context. -Continue to develop fluency through the use of decodable texts and other texts written at the student's instructional level. 6. Provide ongoing assessment to demonstrate the student's progress toward the mastery of State Standards.

Implications of Teaching Phonics in the Classroom

-Good readers use these to think about and have control over their reading -Before reading: they clarify their purpose for reading and preview the text -During reading: they monitor their understanding, adjusting their reading speed to fit the difficulty of the text and "fixing up" any comprehension problems they have -After reading: they check their understanding of what they have read

Metacognitive Strategies

-Does not teach consonant and vowel letter-sound relationships in a prescribed sequence -Informal; based on the teacher's perceptions of what students need to learn and when they need to learn it -Often neglects vowels; does not provide practice materials that offer children the opportunity to apply what they are learning about letter-sound relationships Programs often include: -literature-based programs -basal reading programs -sight-word programs

Non-Systematic Phonics Instruction

-In early childhood, children begin to use past tenses and plurals in speech -About this time, they also begin to add regular forms on irregular nouns, saying "foots" instead of "feet"

Overregularizations

Estimates the level of phonemic awareness in students

Phonemic Awareness (reading assessment)

-Teaches children to notice, think about, and work with/manipulate sounds in spoken language. This helps children become aware of English sound systems, consonants, and vowels. -Teachers can use a variety of instructional methods, however, teaching one or two types of phoneme manipulation—specifically, blending and segmenting phonemes in words—is likely to produce greater benefits -Should be explicit about the connection between phonemic awareness and reading

Phonemic Awareness Instruction

-Helps teachers explicitly and systematically instruct students in how to relate letters and sounds, how to break spoken words into sounds, and how to blend sounds to form words -Helps students understand why they are learning the relationships between letters and sounds -Helps students apply their knowledge of phonics as they read words, sentences, and text -Helps students apply what they learn about sounds and letters to their own writing -Can be adapted to the needs of individual students, based on assessment -Also includes alphabetic knowledge, phonemic awareness, vocabulary development, and reading of text -Most effective when it begins in K or 1st grade -Approximately two years is sufficient for most students

Phonics Instruction

For example, if reading a novel: -Choose a word important to understanding the book ("science") -Get students to understand the words in other contexts, such as school and everyday life

Provide repeated exposure to words (vocabulary instruction)

-Students rehearse and perform a play for peers or others -They read from scripts that have been derived from books that are rich in dialogue -Students play characters who speak lines or a narrator who shares necessary background information -Provides readers with a legitimate reason to reread text and practice fluency -Also promotes cooperative interaction with peers and makes the reading task appealing

Readers' Theatre (reading aloud exercise)

When children break words into their individual phonemes, break words into syllables and break syllables into onsets and rimes

Segmenting/Segmentation

-Graphic organizers that look somewhat like a spider web; lines connect a central concept to a variety of related ideas and events -Also called semantic maps/webs

Semantic Organizers (text comprehension classroom activity)

The examination of various ways that words combine to create meaning, the study of how sentences are formed, and the pattern or structure of word order in sentences

Syntax

-The goal of phonics instruction -The understanding that there are systematic and predictable relationships between written letters and spoken sounds -Knowing these relationships will help children recognize familiar words accurately and automatically, and "decode" new words -Contributes greatly to children's ability to read words both in isolation and connected text

The Alphabetic Principle

-Letters are associated with sounds -Children begin to read simple CVC words (such as mat, sun, pin) -They usually represent such words with a single sound, and later spell with the first and last consonant: for example, CT for cat -When writing later, vowels are included in each syllable -Children now rhyme and blend words -When reading later, they begin to recognize "chunks," or phonograms.

The Beginning Reader: Developmental Expectation

Systematic and explicit instruction, including: -Phonics, phonemic awareness, blending, decoding -Vocabulary word-attack skills, spelling -Text comprehension -Listening and writing

The Beginning Reader: Reading Instruction

-The key approach to successful reading programs is preventive rather than remedial while understanding that there is a full range of learners in the classroom -Therefore, students who are struggling to read are taught from the same systematic framework taught in the early grades of successful readers

The Remedial Reader: Developmental Expectation

Includes re-teaching all of the modalities taught as a "beginning reader" and emphasizing: -Assessment of identified reading weaknesses -Teaching explicit strategies based on diagnosis -Linking instruction to prior knowledge -Increasing instruction time -Dividing skills into smaller steps while providing reinforcement and positive feedback

The Remedial Reader: Reading Instruction
