Duties of the Older and Younger
2 But as for you, teach the things which are in agreement with sound doctrine [which produces men and women of good character whose lifestyle identifies them as true Christians]. 2 Older men are to be temperate, dignified, sensible, sound in faith, in love, in steadfastness [Christlike in character].
3 Older women similarly are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor addicted to much wine, teaching what is right and good, 4 so that they may encourage the young women to tenderly love their husbands and their children, 5 to be sensible, pure, makers of a home [where God is honored], good-natured, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored.
6 In a similar way urge the young men to be sensible and self-controlled and to behave wisely [taking life seriously]. 7 And in all things show yourself to be an example of good works, with purity in doctrine [having the strictest regard for integrity and truth], dignified,

Importance of Reading to Young Children
Language skills.
The language used by the parents to the children tend to be repetitive and limited to vocabularies which are employed daily in addressing them. Thus, when the parents or the instructors read for the children, they enable them to have access to new vocabularies different from topics which comprise of more words and phrases which they do not hear on a daily basis. It also allows to learn new languages and develop the fluency when speaking.
Children lack the reading skills and therefore, it necessary to guide them. By that, the children will be able to achieve the following skills.

Importance of Reading to Young Children
Improves cognitive abilities
Memory/Long-Term- enables a child to access stored information
Visual Processing- allows children to think in visual images
Improves concentration
Attention/Sustained- helps children stay focused
Attention/Selective- helps children ignore distractions
1. Reading exposes the child to various brain exercises. These activities provoke their brains and thus making them start thinking and understanding things from a broad point of view and develop their way of reasoning (Kalb, 2014).
2. Reading to young children on a daily basis enables them to sit still for long periods, and this will be beneficial as they join school. Usually a child is distracted easily by their surrounding.

Benefits of Reading to Young Children
It develops the child’s imagination and creativity
Helping your child to become creative opens their minds up for great possibilities
Reading is a form of entertainment.
Have one or two nights a week for reading then make up games to go along with the story
It builds strong relationship between the parent and the child.
When parent spends time by his/her child bedside reading a book, this creates a bond between the them. Building a bond can help children grow emotionally.
1. When the parents read to their children, they provoke their mind to think about the characters, the setting to understand the flow of the story. Through that, the children are able to improve the way they choose ideas and think or imagine.
2. For instance, when reading comic books they present funny events which make the children enjoy the story and even respond to questions.
3. Sitting down with you child at the end of the day to read, helps both the parent and the child unwind and relax.

Resources for Story/Music Time
Films
There are various films performed purposely targeting the children. They present funny stories, entertaining events, and music for preschoolers. The movie can be a source of stories and music times that are recited to the children.
Linguistic books/novels
Reading of the linguistic books to children help them learn about their native language quickly. This will enable the children to unde.

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.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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”.

2. PLEASE LABEL E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G.
Please also keep an extra set of pants, socks and underwear in your child’s backpack.
(The school nurse is not able to store extra clothing in her office.)
3. PLEASE SEND IN ONE, SMALL, HEALTHY SNACK AND ONE HEALTHY DRINK EACH
DAY. SOME STUDENTS ARE STILL CONFUSED ABOUT LUNCH VS SNACK.
PLEASE PROVIDE STRAWS, NAPKINS, AND UTENSILS, IF THEY ARE NEEDED.
PLEASE SEND SNACK ITEMS THAT ARE EASILY OPENED BY YOUR CHILD.
PUDDING CUPS, JUICE POUCHES AND SMALL FRUIT CUPS ARE ESPECIALLY
DIFFICULT FOR MOST YOUNG CHILDREN TO MANAGE, INDEPENDENTLY.
THE BOARD OF EDUCATION WELLNESS POLICY:
Healthful party menus and nonfood alternatives for celebrations will be encouraged.
Healthful snacks in appropriate portions will be encouraged. Students and staff will
be encouraged to wash their hands prior to mealtime.
4. Healthy Snack Ideas:
"We can make a commitment to promote vegetables and fruits and whole grains on
every part of every menu. We can make portion sizes smaller and emphasize quality
over quantity. And we can help create a culture — imagine this — where our kids ask
for healthy options instead of resisting them.“ Michelle Obama
5. WE HAVE 17 STUDENTS IN OUR CLASS.
IF YOU HAVE A CHILD WITH FOOD ALLERGIES OR A SPECIAL
DIET, PLEASE CONSIDER SENDING AN ALTERNATE SNACK
JUST IN CASE THERE
THE BOARD OF EDUCATION WELLNESS POLICY:
Students will be discouraged from sharing their foods and/or
beverages with one another during meal or snack times,
given concerns with allergies and/or other restrictions on
some children's diets.

10. LINKS/FUN FRIDAY:
We have begun a program to support children as they learn about all of
the important, school behaviors, which will prepare them to be successful
and engaged learners.
All students begin the week with three links. Links are earned for
expected school behaviors. Links can also be lost. I am modeling and
shaping the expected behaviors, all of the time. At the end of the week,
children who have earned enough links will have the opportunity to have
Fun Friday and play a class game. If you have not earned enough links, you
will have extra time to practice academic skills. For students who have
earned a large amount of links, there is a drawing for a prize from the
prize box. Certificates are sent home with students who have earned a
large number of links, each week.
Please be cautious not to expect that your child will only earn links. It is
expected that mistakes will be made, as children are learning. Reminders
will be a part of this system, at the beginning of the year. This system
helps children begin to better monitor their own behavior. Some parents
use a similar system at home ;).

•Text Types and Purposes (write/draw: an opinion, an informative text and a narration
including a reaction)
•Production and Distribution of Writing (add details to strengthen writing, collaborate with
peers to publish writing)
•Research to Build and Present Knowledge (author study/express opinions, recall or gather
information to answer a question)
Speaking & Listening:
•Comprehension and Collaboration (listen to others; take turns speaking through multiple
exchanges; ask questions about key details, for clarification or to seek help; describe familiar
people, places, things and events; add drawings to add detail; express thoughts, feelings and
ideas clearly)
Language:

walk, march, strut, prance; use new words learned through school experiences)
GRADE K OVERVIEW LANGUAGE ARTS CURRICULUM
14. Created by: Mrs. Colwell McKinney-TX
Research consistently finds phonological/phonemic
awareness a key predictor of reading success.
16. •Decoding symbols is just a part of reading. Reading is also
deriving and constructing meaning. As we learn to read, we
become more automatic and we begin to think more clearly about the
meaning. Both decoding and comprehension are important.
•You can build comprehension by encouraging your child to
retell important story events from beginning, middle and
end. Try to help you child to become more and more independent
with this skill.
•Please encourage your child to point to each word, as
he/she reads. Tracking or one-to-one matching helps to eliminate
the possibility of adding or deleting words.
•Please help your child to notice and correct errors as he/she
reads (Does that sound right?).
•Please read with your child, every day, for 15 minutes. Books
on tape/CD can be a great substitute for busy evenings. There has been
a great deal of research regarding the power of reading with your child.
This is the most important thing you can do.
18. READING COMPREHENISON
As you read with your child, please consider asking a few of the following questions before during
and after. These are questions that good readers begin to ask themselves. This verbal processing will
strengthen comprehension.
BEFORE:
What do you think this story will be about? How do you know?
Can you tell me what is happening in each picture?
DURING:
What do you think will happen next? Why do you think that?
Why do you think the character did that?
What would you do?
Can you picture this part in your mind?
Who are the characters in this story?
What is the setting or main place where the story happens?
AFTER:
What did this book make you think about or remind you of (life experience/another book)?
What was you favorite part of the book? Why?
What was the problem in this story?
How was the problem solved?
Can you retell the story?
How does the story begin? What happens in the middle? What happens at the end?
What lesson did you learn from this book?
How did this book make you feel?
Did you like this book? Why? Why not?
