Here are some tips for writing dialogue:
- Introduce who is speaking. Use action beats before and after dialogue to provide context. For example: "John said, 'How was your day?' Mary replied..."
- Vary sentence structure and length. Don't have every line be a simple subject-verb statement. Mix it up.
- Make sure each line of dialogue is clear who is speaking. Overly long passages without attribution can confuse the reader.
- Use punctuation correctly. Quotation marks around the dialogue. Comma before the closing quotation for the speaking tag. Period for the end of a complete sentence speaking tag.
- Show don't tell emotions. Let the dialogue and actions portray

The shepherd and his 17 sheep. A maths riddle
A shepherd had 17 sheep. To divide the sheep evenly among his sons or perform other calculations, the shepherd would end up with decimal amounts of sheep which is impossible. To solve this, the shepherd would buy another sheep, allowing him to divide the flock into whole numbers without remainder. In the end, counting all the sons' sheep together, the total would still be the original 17 sheep the shepherd began with.

MI and Me, Lara
The document discusses Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, which proposes that intelligence is comprised of distinct capacities rather than a single general ability. It identifies seven types of intelligence: linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, spatial-visual, interpersonal, and naturalistic. Each type is defined briefly, with linguistic involving language skills, logical-mathematical involving logic and problem-solving, and naturalistic pertaining to understanding the natural world.
MI and Me, Álvaro
The document discusses Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences. It introduces Gardner as a psychologist who proposed the theory in 1983, which differentiates intelligence into specific modalities rather than a single general ability. The theory posits that people have at least eight intelligences: musical, bodily-kinesthetic, logical-mathematical, linguistic, spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic. The document then provides an example of a student describing their interests, strengths in math and sports, and results from their multiple intelligences test.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

Finland Presentation Comenius project
- 2. • We researched British Legends like Robin Hood, King Arthur and Saint George and the Dragon. • We were interested in the Villainous characters in each of these legends. • We shared this knowledge with English classes lower down the school, and they wrote their own legends. • And then…
- 3. • Five post-16 students and four Y9’s spent five days in November living with a Finnish family. • The younger students preformed an excellent extract from Oliver Twist, while we gave presentations on our chosen British legends. • But it wasn’t all work; we also went sightseeing, ice skating, bowling and shopping.
- 14. …Who gave us early Christmas presents!
- 17. Roasting Bread and Sausages/Tofu
- 19. Please excuse Heather’s crazy eyes
- 20. There were many tears after this photo was taken
- 24. • There are villains in all of history; there will always be people who are intrinsically evil. • And people that are good. • Even in the modern day there can still be heroes and villains, just not the wielding swords type. • Many of the characteristics that we thought of for our characters are possessed by the characters in the international legends – people have not changed.
- 25. • Legends are still as relevant today – they teach us about overcoming evil and doing what you can to help others. • But there will always be a divide between those that have and those that don’t. The rich are still (unfortuntaly) seen as superior. • Some things have changed; woman are no longer seen as the ‘damsel in distress’ who need rescuing by a man. But most of all, we are all equal
