Activities Affected by Natural Objects in the Sky.pptxNeilfieOrit2
The document discusses various activities that are affected by natural objects in the sky such as the sun, moon, stars, and clouds. The sun affects drying crops, work schedules, school schedules, and outdoor activities like going to the beach or park. The moon and stars influence nighttime activities like fishing, stargazing, and family movie nights as well as sleeping schedules. Clouds can impact outdoor activities like bike riding.
This document discusses using art to practice making predictions by looking at pictures and thinking about what is happening and what may happen next based on clues. Students are asked to make predictions about what is occurring and will occur next after viewing several paintings. The document then prompts predicting outcomes from short stories by having students closely examine details and use prior knowledge.

Intro to Equations and Expressions.pptNeilfieOrit2
This document defines key terms related to expressions and equations. It explains that expressions use words like sum and number, while equations use equal signs and are written as sentences. Examples are given of expressions like x + 6 and equations like x + 6 = 10. Terms, coefficients, constants, and like terms are defined for expressions. Inverse operations are defined for solving equations. Methods are provided for translating verbal phrases and sentences into algebraic expressions and equations.
Subject-verb agreement refers to making the subject and verb match in number. To make a noun plural, add -s. To make a verb plural, remove -s. There are also irregular verbs like "be", "have", and "do" that have unique plural forms. As a general tip, if the subject doesn't end in -s, the verb will, and if the subject does end in -s, the verb won't. Multiple subjects joined by "and" take a plural verb.
Abbreviations are shortened forms of words that often use periods after the letters. Common abbreviations include days of the week like Sun. and months of the year such as Dec. Titles and names can also be abbreviated, for example Prof. for Professor and Ms. for Miss.
This document discusses how to count syllables in words. A syllable is a single unit of sound within a word. Words can have different numbers of syllables, such as "tie" having one syllable and "alphabet" having three syllables. The document recommends clapping out the syllables in words to count them, such as clapping three times for "umbrella" and five times for "I like to eat cheese." Counting syllables helps determine the rhythm or "beats" in words.
This document defines and explains the key terms used to describe the different parts of a circle:
- The circumference is the distance around the outside of the circle. The diameter is the distance from one side to the other passing through the center.
- The radius is the line connecting the center of the circle to the circumference. A chord is a line touching the circumference at two points.
- A sector is the part of a circle between two radii. An arc is the part of the circumference at the edge of a sector. A segment is the part between a chord and an arc.
- A tangent is a straight line touching the circle at just one point. The document includes diagrams labeling these different parts
Daytime objects in the sky include the sun, which Earth revolves around, clouds which are important for weather, and rainbows which are formed when sunlight hits raindrops and splits into colors. Nighttime objects are the moon, which orbits Earth, stars which are bright balls of gas that give their own light, and planets.
Musical form refers to the structure or organization of a musical composition. There are several common forms, including binary form consisting of two contrasting sections (AB), ternary form with three sections (ABA) where the first and third sections are the same, and rondo form with a recurring theme or refrain alternating with different episodes (ABACA). The form helps composers organize their pieces and involves different melodic phrases, sections, and the repetition or contrast of musical ideas.
The document provides information about arithmetic sequences including defining the first term (a), common difference (d), and the explicit formula to find any term (an) in an arithmetic sequence. It gives examples of finding specific terms and writing recursive and explicit rules for arithmetic sequences.
This document discusses how to count syllables in words. A syllable is a single unit of sound within a word. Words can have different numbers of syllables, such as "tie" having one syllable and "alphabet" having three syllables. The document recommends clapping out the syllables in words to count them, such as clapping three times for "umbrella" and five times for "I like to eat cheese." Counting syllables is done by hearing the separate sounds or "beats" in each word, rather than individual letters or sounds.
Euphemism is a polite expression used in place of a rude, harsh, or embarrassing statement to avoid offending or humiliating someone. Euphemisms are made up of three Greek morphemes meaning "good voice act/result" and are used to soften expressions like "died" to "passed away" or describe someone as attending "remedial classes" rather than being "corrective". Common euphemisms include replacing "garbage man" with "sanitation engineer", calling the elderly "senior citizens" rather than "old people", and referring to pregnancy as being "in the family way".
Two figures are congruent when they have the same size and shape. Two triangles are congruent when their corresponding angles and sides are equal in measure. The document provides examples of identifying congruent triangles by showing that their corresponding angles and sides are equal.
Safety Measures for Different Weather Conditions.pptxNeilfieOrit2
On sunny days, people are at risk of headaches, sunburn, dehydration, and heatstroke. To stay safe in the heat, one should apply sunscreen, stay in the shade, wear sunglasses or a hat, drink plenty of water, and wipe sweat off the body. During rainy weather, people may get coughs or colds, so it's important to wear boots, sweaters, jackets, and use an umbrella, and eat warm food.
This document discusses how to become compassionate by showing empathy and helping those who are suffering through acts of mercy, such as feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, and visiting the sick. It encourages showing compassion when encountering victims of calamity by giving comfort and aid. Several examples are provided of compassionate acts like donating to charities, volunteering, and caring for family members.
Force can cause changes in the motion, shape, and size of objects. It can make stationary objects begin moving, slow or accelerate moving objects, and change the direction of moving objects. Friction is a type of force that occurs when two surfaces rub against each other. Applying more force to an object generally causes greater changes, such as compressing an object more if a stronger force is exerted.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
This document discusses affixes, including prefixes and suffixes. It provides examples of common prefixes like anti-, de-, dis-, en-, and in- and their meanings. Some common suffixes are -able, -al, -ed, -en, -er, -est, -ful, -ic, -ing, -(t)ion, -(i)ty, -(t)ive, and -ly. Affixes are added to root words to modify or change their meaning. Knowing common prefixes and suffixes can help the reader understand new words and sounds more educated.
This document defines and provides examples of consonance, assonance, and alliteration. Consonance is the repetition of consonant sounds anywhere in a word. Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds anywhere in a word. Alliteration is the repetition of any sounds at the beginning of words. The document compares and contrasts these three literary devices used to repeat sounds in language.
Polygons are plane figures formed by three or more line segments called sides that meet at points called vertices. A regular polygon has all interior angles that are congruent, while an irregular polygon does not have congruent interior angles. Regular polygons include triangles, squares, pentagons and other figures with five or more sides where all interior angles are equal.
