Summerland School Observations
This document summarizes Tina Donnell's observations from a visit to Summerland School in West Auckland. Some highlights she saw included:
- "Thinking Hats" scrapbooks for children to independently write about books they've read using different perspectives.
- A display showing how one class used Kid Pix publishing to set goals and track progress.
- Most classes sharing learning intentions and success criteria to frame lessons.
- Examples of independent and cooperative learning, including using a math problem and organizing ideas with post-it notes.
- Displays of current work, goals, reading progress and reflection tools to involve parents in the learning process.
- Integrated use of ICT as another
Our learning story mother's day
The students in a 9th grade kindergarten class in Greece created a collaborative poem for Mother's Day by dividing into teams to write script, illustrate drawings, take photographs, and choose music. Each team contributed parts to the poem about why they love their mothers. They compiled the script, drawings, photos, and music into a video using movie maker software. The video will be given to their mothers next week along with other gifts. The students enjoyed collaborating on the project but found some parts like choosing music and compiling the video more challenging.

Each activity suggests asking questions or modifying for younger children. The document encourages taking photos and videos for future assignments. It provides references on creativity, play-based learning, pedagogy, and creativity in early education.
S2 creative science
This document discusses creativity and science in early childhood education. It presents several models of creativity, emphasizing that creativity is not just for elites and that all children have creative abilities. The models address different types of creativity from original work to problem solving. The document also discusses key ideas around problem solving, possibility thinking, and the role of the adult in fostering creativity through hands-on activities, questioning, and playfulness. Core science skills are outlined, such as observation, questioning, investigation, and recording data. Suggestions are provided for supporting young children's development of these skills through activities in continuing provision areas.
Integrating Technology Using Digital Presentations
The document provides ideas for integrating technology to meet kindergarten and first grade standards requiring participation in multimedia group projects and second grade standards requiring digital presentations. Some suggested ideas include having students make digital books with pictures and text, make single PowerPoint slides to accompany oral reports, combine single slides into slideshows, and take and edit pictures to create posters presenting information on various topics. These technology-integrated projects can be used across subjects such as math, language arts, science, and social studies.
Power Point Passe 2009 S S
Certain materials are included under fair use exemption of U.S. Copyright Law and should not be further distributed.

Visual Literacy
This document discusses visual literacy and the use of picture books in education. It introduces several researchers and theorists in the field of visual literacy and notes that while the English curriculum mentions interpreting visual resources, it does not explicitly encourage using picture books or developing visual literacy skills. The document argues that picture books can help students develop important visual literacy abilities and that more should be done to incorporate them into classrooms across all grade levels.
Math Workshop
The document describes a math workshop approach used at Mary Walter Elementary School. The workshop includes tasks focused on designing neighborhoods that allow students to engage in deep problem solving and make connections across subjects. Students work individually and in groups to solve problems, share their work, and revise their understanding based on peer feedback. The document provides examples of how students developed their work over multiple iterations, applying strategies in new contexts and clarifying their thinking.
Light houses for Childcare

AAI Technology Journal
The document discusses the use of technology across different grade levels in a school. It finds that while classrooms still use some older technologies like CDs and videos, most have integrated modern devices like iPads, computers, smart boards, and online resources. Younger students engage with stories and games online, while older students conduct research, create presentations, and take virtual field trips using technology. The document concludes that the school has made progress in adopting new technologies but still has further to go.
Non projected pictures
The document discusses non-projected pictures, which do not require projection equipment or power, such as study prints, charts, posters, maps, and photographs. It describes how these visual aids can be used to motivate students and present concepts symbolically. Guidelines are provided for selecting relevant and clear non-projected pictures that balance understandability with posing questions to challenge students.

Magnetic boards
Magnetic boards are surfaces that allow writing or drawing using magnetic markers or pens. There are two main types - magnetic chalkboards with a ferromagnetic surface and dark coating, and magnetic marker boards with a light colored silk or gloss coating. Both types allow movable displays using magnetic materials and supplementation with writing. Magnetic boards can be used to clearly demonstrate systems. Non-projected pictures are study prints, charts, maps and illustrations not requiring projection. They motivate students, present concepts visually and stimulate thinking. Preparation involves selecting relevant images, ensuring clarity, and meeting student needs.
Perspective Lesson Plan-Secondary Education
This art lesson focuses on teaching perspective to 18 pupils. The teacher will introduce one, two, and three point perspective through a PowerPoint presentation. Pupils will then work in groups of 4-5 to create a collage applying these perspective techniques and adding their own imaginative drawings. Finally, the class will discuss what they learned about perspective and how it was applied in their collages. The goals are for pupils to understand different types of perspective and use them creatively in a group project.

As a result of Six Sigma, Starwood has achieved a higher net income margin than competitors like Hilton and Marriott. The conclusion states that Six Sigma has provided benefits to Starwood and may be adopted by other hospitality providers to improve quality.
Chapter 1 notes
This document provides an overview of chemistry concepts including:
1. Chemistry is the study of matter and the changes it undergoes. The scientific method uses a systematic approach involving hypotheses, experiments, and analysis.
2. Matter can exist as elements, compounds, mixtures, and in three main states - solids, liquids, and gases. Chemical and physical changes alter substances in different ways.
3. The study of chemistry incorporates macroscopic observations and measurements as well as analysis at the microscopic level of atoms and molecules. Significant figures, units, and mathematical representations are important tools in chemistry.

6. polymer characterization 1 new clean short tepe
This document discusses methods for characterizing polymer molecular weight. It describes average molecular weights like number-average (Mn) and weight-average (Mw), and how they are calculated. Absolute methods like endgroup analysis directly relate measurable properties to molecular weight, while relative methods like solution viscosity instead relate measurements to molecular weight when calibrated with an absolute technique. Solution viscosity measurements utilize equations like Huggins' to correlate intrinsic viscosity and molecular weight. Size exclusion chromatography can rapidly determine molecular weight distribution and averages.
