The second story is about a drawing teacher named Mr. Ram Shankar Nikumbh who helps his student Ishan, who has dyslexia, discover his hidden artistic talents through varied teaching approaches, overcoming the doubts of Ishan's parents.

Andrew jackson 2
Jackson is often considered the first "modern" president due to his expansion of presidential power and appeal to the common man. He introduced the spoils system, which rewarded political supporters with government jobs, and increased voter participation. However, his Indian removal policy led to the tragic Trail of Tears and disregard of Supreme Court rulings upholding tribal sovereignty. Jackson remained popular due to his opposition to elites and support for individual liberty and states' rights.
Westward manifest destiny
The document discusses the American West between the Appalachian Mountains and the Rocky Mountains during the early-to-mid 1800s. It provides information on the geography of the region, including the Great Plains, as well as the native inhabitants and how settlers could travel west, such as along the Oregon and Santa Fe Trails. Students are then assigned a project to create an advertisement encouraging migration to the west by listing at least three reasons marked with asterisks.
Westward
The Louisiana Purchase doubled the size of the United States and secured the Mississippi River trade route. It provided abundant and cheap land for western expansion of farming, but also raised political concerns. Some Federalists feared increased support for Republicans from the new western states and even proposed secession of New England. This tension was exacerbated by the duel between Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton in 1804, after which Burr fled arrest for killing Hamilton.
Westward expansion
The document discusses factors that contributed to westward expansion in the United States between 1820-1890, including Manifest Destiny, the discovery of gold in California, the Homestead Act of 1862, and the building of the transcontinental railroad. It describes how the railroad transformed travel across North America from a months-long, dangerous journey to a week-long trip, enabling more extensive settlement of the western territories and fulfilling Manifest Destiny. Key events discussed include the driving of the Golden Spike in 1869 uniting the Union Pacific and Central Pacific railroads and establishing the first transcontinental railroad line across North America.
Westward Expansion Review
The document provides a review of key people, events, and concepts related to Westward Expansion in the United States between the 1840s-1850s, including:
- Three countries that owned California: Spain, Mexico, and the United States.
- Manifest Destiny, the belief that the US was destined to expand across North America, was used to justify the Mexican War and Indian Removal.
- The Mexican War occurred under President James K. Polk and resulted in the US acquiring California, New Mexico, and Arizona after the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo.
- Westward expansion led to the Oregon Trail, Mormon migration, conflicts with Native Americans, the Texas Revolution, and the
Westward expansion
The document discusses the key factors that influenced westward expansion in the United States, including geographic obstacles, technologies, policies, and the social and economic impacts. It addresses how physical features, climate, resources, railroads, and the Homestead Act affected travel and settlement. It also examines conflicts between miners, farmers, ranchers, and various ethnic groups, as well as the effects of expansion on Native Americans, including land disputes, warfare, and changes in federal policy.
Manifest destiny
This document discusses the concept of Manifest Destiny and provides context through maps and quotes from 1816. It includes a map from 1816 depicting the United States stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific oceans, along with a quote from the map's creator saying it was desirable to present the country this way and that it showed the potential for expansion across the continent from east to west.
Lewis and clark
The document provides information about the Lewis and Clark Expedition from 1804 to 1806 and discusses whether Lewis and Clark were respectful to the Native Americans they encountered. It introduces a structured academic controversy technique where students will explore the issue through opposing positions in pairs and teams. They will present each position, restate the other team's perspective, and then work towards building consensus or clarifying differences of opinion. Discussion norms of active listening, challenging ideas respectfully, understanding other perspectives, and equal sharing of time are outlined.
Louisiana purchase
The document summarizes the history of ownership and acquisition of the Louisiana Territory by various nations including Native Americans, French, British, Spanish, and Americans. It describes how France gained control of the territory in 1682 but lost it to Spain in 1763. In 1800, Spain secretly transferred the territory back to France under Napoleon, alarming Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson sent diplomats to purchase New Orleans but Napoleon unexpectedly offered to sell the entire Louisiana Territory for $15 million. In 1803, the United States completed the Louisiana Purchase, doubling the nation's size and opening vast new lands for settlement and exploration like the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
Japanese writing
The Japanese writing system consists of hiragana, katakana, and kanji. Hiragana uses symbols to represent syllables and is used for native Japanese words. Katakana also uses symbols for syllables and is used for foreign borrowings. Kanji adopts Chinese characters to represent words or parts of words in a simplified manner. Mastering hiragana is fundamental as it is the first system students learn. Each type of character has unique rules regarding pronunciation and usage.
Chinesealphabet
The document provides information about the Chinese alphabet and writing system. It discusses how the Chinese writing system developed from ancient pictographs into a system with over 50,000 characters. Unlike the English alphabet, Chinese characters represent whole words rather than individual sounds. The document also notes that the Chinese writing system allows people speaking different dialects to communicate through written language. It traces the origins of Chinese writing to around 4500 years ago and describes the discovery of ancient texts on oracle bones from 1500-1000 BC that provided early evidence of Chinese characters.
Chinese writing
The document provides an overview of Chinese writing and language. It discusses oracle bones as an early form of Chinese writing dating back thousands of years. It also summarizes that Chinese uses characters rather than an alphabet, with over 60,000 characters in the writing system. Finally, it notes that simplified Chinese uses simpler versions of traditional characters, as seen on some early oracle bones.
Writing history progretion
The document discusses different types of writing systems, including pictographs, ideographs, syllabic writing, and alphabetic writing. It notes that no writing systems use only one type, and provides examples. The rest of the document focuses on issues with the English writing system. While English spelling is inconsistent and irregular, the document argues this is by design rather than a flaw, as the system aims to represent morphological and phonemic patterns rather than surface phonetic details through its morphophonemic principle.
The american revolution
The American Revolution was an uneven fight between 1775-1783, with Britain having advantages in military strength and resources over the American colonists. Key turning points included the Continental Army's surprise victory at Trenton and the British surrender at Saratoga, which convinced France to ally with the Americans. With further support from France and other countries, Washington was able to trap Cornwallis' forces at Yorktown in 1781, marking the last major battle. The Treaty of Paris in 1783 officially recognized American independence.
Lesson4federalistvsanti 120418093726-phpapp02
The Federalists supported a strong central government and the ratification of the US Constitution, as expressed through the Federalist Papers authored by Madison, Hamilton, and Jay. The Anti-Federalists opposed increasing federal power and wanted to protect the powers of state governments. They worried the presidency could become a monarchy. The Constitution was ratified after debates between the two sides in states like New York, where Federalist 10 addressed the Anti-Federalists' concerns about factions.
Fedsvs antifeds-121016004637-phpapp01
The document discusses the Federalist and Anti-Federalist positions during the ratification of the US Constitution. The Anti-Federalists opposed a strong central government and feared it would ignore individual rights. Notable Anti-Federalists included Patrick Henry and George Mason. The Federalists supported ratifying the Constitution to give the national government more power to function effectively while still protecting state powers. Key Federalists included James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay who authored the Federalist Papers in support of ratification.
Athens democracy
Athens in the 5th century BC had a direct democracy where all male citizens could participate directly in the government. The Ekklesia, made up of all citizens, voted on laws and declared war. The Boule, made up of 500 randomly selected citizens, drafted laws and managed politics and the army. Principal characteristics included isonomia where all citizens had equal rights, isogoria allowing all citizens to speak in the assembly, and isocracia giving all citizens equal chances to hold office, though women, foreigners, and slaves were excluded from citizenship. Pericles led Athens' democratic faction for over 30 years, during which time the Parthenon was built.
