This document outlines an optional course curriculum titled "The Sea - From Legend to Art" for 5th grade students. The curriculum aims to integrate topics from multiple disciplines such as language, science, social science, art, and technology around the central theme of the sea. Over the course of the school year, students will explore the sea through legends, marine biology, coastal cities and ports, and how the sea has inspired art. Activities include research, creative writing, art projects, roleplaying, and outdoor activities. The goal is to stimulate students' learning, creativity, and appreciation for the marine environment through interdisciplinary and hands-on lessons.
It is a methodological guide with teaching scenarios that can support those who want to conduct learning activities with students about marine ecosystem biodiversity. The guide was developed within the Erasmus +, KA2 project - "Once upon a time ... the SEA", funded by the European Commission.

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”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Optional Class Curriculum
“The Sea – from legend to art”
5th Grade
INTEGRATED CURRICULUM FOR ROMANIAN, BIOLOGY, GEOGRAPHY,
HISTORY, ART AND TECHNOLOGY
ARGUMENT
In order to enjoy the priceless feature of childhood – the spirit of observation and
investigation, ingenuity, fantasy, imagination – I have opted for a multi-curricular optional
course, to formulate objectives which are common to multiple disciplines.
The optional course The Sea – From Legend to Art was designed to integrate into the
school curriculum the topic of the Erasmus+ Project, Once upon a time … the SEA, and it
addresses to 5th graders who will have the opportunity to involve in inter-discipline
documenting activities, which will lead to producing auxiliary teaching materials necessary to
increase the attractivity of classes. The activities will include innovative methods and
techniques specific to student education and adapted to their particulars, interactive methods to
stimulate motivation, creativity and involvement in class (discovery, role play, projects,
individual and group activity).
Originality, creativity, free expression of students’ feelings and impressions will be means
to solve the mystery and beauty of marine universe, illustrated in a mini-dictionary with
information on marine flora and fauna or posters, pictures, photos, brochures with food recipes
and literary creations as legends, stories, poems, educational games and multimedia
presentations.
Activities such as Sea – Source of inspiration in art (music, painting, photo, cinema),
Marine Life Carnival, and literary creations published as Sea Poetry, The Sea in Stories and
Legends, will stimulate motivation to explore natural features of the sea in culture and art. A
poster gallery on marine environment protection, Together for the Sea!, and the creation of
slogans with an awareness campaign on the importance of an healthy marine environment, as
well as cleaning campaigns will provide the formation of a responsible ecological, social and
civic behaviour.
