What is Dialogic Reading?
Dialogic Reading allows the student to tell the story from the pictures in a book. They make predictions from the pictures before reading or interacting with the text.
They’re encouraged to ask questions and have conversations about the book based on their predictions. This leads to expanding a students vocabulary, analyzing different parts of the text, and deepening their understanding of the text.

Benefits of Dialogic Reading
Why is Dialogic Reading useful?
Well, it is a valuable tool for developing literacy skills. It models how good readers think and teaches learners to become better readers. It improves skills such as print awareness, oral language, and comprehension. Since it has dialogue around the text they are reading it allows students to explore the reading on a deeper level. This helps with a tremendous amount of literacy skills. By: Emily Alers

Benefits for Parents While doing Dialogic Reading With Children
Dialogic reading doesn’t only benefit children, but it also benefits the parents. This benefits parents too because it gives them the satisfaction of knowing that their child isn’t reading just to read, but is actually grasping an understanding of what they are reading. Reading comprehension is so important for children. As the get older they will begin to take test or even just general work where they read a passage and have to answer questions. If parents start dialogic reading at a young age, it will prepare them for the upcoming years of their life. Dialogic reading also allows for a healthy, positive parent child interaction. This will allow them to speak up and express how they feel and learn where they are academically rather than just relying on the teacher for everything. By: Emily Alers

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Editor's Notes
Teacher work very hard during the academic year to improve their student’s reading skills. Teachers can work together with parents to further improve their students’ reading skills by reading and doing literacy activities outside of school. Parent involvement can also maintain motivation and encouragement for positive student achievement.
Students can achieve academic success when they have strong literacy and comprehension skills. One way of developing stronger skills is to act from the phrase “practice makes perfect”. Students who constantly practice their skills and exercise their minds will become better in their reading and writing. Cognitive skills are essential for reading and writing success. The strengthening of these skills results in a wide range of improved critical language and reading skills such as phonological awareness, phonemic awareness, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, decoding, working memory, syntax, grammar, and other skills necessary to learn how to read or to become a better reader.
In the home, students will not feel the pressure or intimidation of the process of learning how to read and write as they might feel in the classroom. When working with parents who are supportive, students can learn at their own pace in a comfortable learning environment. Competition is less likely to be present when students work with their parents.
Each activity focuses on a specific skill that students can build upon and improve. Parents can make up games and activities or they can turn a classic game like Chutes and Ladders into a literacy activity by altering the rules to fit the areas of literacy a student needs to work on. Research shows that students who engage in more hands-on activities will benefit greatly as they are directly involved in their learning.
There are many things parents can do to help their children improve their reading skills. Activities at home can keep students focused on an academic goal that has the ability to catapult them into educational success. When students are learning things in the home with parents, they are also building their confidence when they are in the classroom through practice at home.
The ideas are endless. Parents can be creative in working with their child at home.
Activities can be simple and challenging correlating to the content students are learning in school.
Learning can be fun and creative. A child can practice their reading and writing while doing every day things…sometimes they may not even know they are practicing which is sometimes a better way for students to improve. Parents, give students a task to read or write something, and then explain the benefits of their activity afterwards. I have done this with students and sometimes they look at me like I am crazy, but there are those moments, when they look up and smile because they realized I tricked them into learning and they liked that I did that. :0)
Parents are the first examples for children. They introduce children to new things, new learning and help them grow and develop into independent, successful individuals. The commitment parents make to their children is a valuable undertaking.
Building relationships is very important when it comes to student academic success. Relationships among parents, teachers and students are the base of an educational foundation. Everyone involved needs to understand their role and their value. Education does not just involve students. It involves everyone who wants to help students reach their full potential. Through encouragement and motivation, students perform at their best abilities utilizing the skills they develop.
Teachers can let families know how they can be helpful and can ask for their assistance with specific activities. Parents can participate by preparing classroom materials, serving on a committee to select classroom equipment and materials, or sharing information about their careers or hobbies. The more involved parents are in what goes on in the classroom, the more likely they are to understand the teacher’s goals and practices. Parents’ viewpoints should be considered in making decisions about their children’s schooling. Programs can open options for families to become involved individually and collectively in making decisions about goals and standards for their children. Communicate to parents at the beginning of the school year or semester about school policies and services. Inform them about classroom goals and give a few examples of what the children will be learning. When meeting with family members, create a comfortable environment in which parents feel free to share information, ask questions, and make recommendations. Point out the projects that involved their child and share information in a way that encourages respectful two-way communication. Be careful not to make assumptions about a family member’s level of knowledge, understanding, or interest. Schedule an adequate amount of time for the conference so that parents do not feel rushed.
Children spend approximately 5 to 7 hours a day with a teacher for almost 10 months. A teacher and student who have the qualities of good communications, respect in a classroom, and show interest in teaching from the point of view of the teacher and learning from a student will establish a positive relationship in the classroom. The key is, teachers need to continuously monitor the student in order for him or her to be aware of any difficulties the student is having. The more the teacher connects or communicates with his or her students, the more likely they will be able to help students learn at a high level and accomplish quickly. When teachers take the time to interact with their students, they are taking the time to get to know them which can serve as a basis for a relationship between students and teachers. Students can learn that their teacher shows interest in their education and wants them to do well. Students always remember the teacher who went out of their way to help them. Teachers who put forth the effort and possess qualities that help students along their educational journey are never forgotten. As a teacher myself, I still turn to Mrs. Reed-Shelton for advice and guidance because she was the teacher that made the most difference in my life and exposed me to the world and who I could be in that world.
These concluding statement pretty much say it all. Education is something that does not happen over night. It is a process by which children learn, try, grow, make mistakes and find out how to use their skills. Students build their skills every minute of every day. It is vital that parents are aware of this and they help their children along in this process. As much as parents should remain involved in their student’s life, they are not alone. Teachers are there to support them and their children. Parents play a key part in their child’s education. The more involved parents become, the more success their child will see in school and in life.
Teaching children how to read and write by making reading fun and incorporating reading and writing into games around the house can build their skills and improve their literacy and comprehension.
