I’m celebrating this pivotal moment because it’s part of my transformation into someone who spends less time trying to figure out life, and more time living it. I’m developing a new approach that puts me in a position to say Yes naturally because it aligns with my values. (How can you develop a new approach to a free online high school that aligns to your core values and will give you more time to live your life and less time trying to figure it out?)

At the 10/15/2014 Parent Ed talk, Principal Heather Swanson Johnson gave a fascinating presentation about Catharine Blaine's Writer's Workshop. Her talk reminded me how fortunate we are to have passionate educators like her and Ms. Lily in our children's lives.
Even if you missed Heather's dynamic delivery of this PPT, you'll see her main takeaways from her talk about Writer's Workshop. Hope to see you at the next Parent Ed night!

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

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.

3. Fourth Graders
We hope to foster within
our children :
Independence
Responsibility
Organization
4. Independence
Give them a job to do, show them how,
and let them follow through.
Encourage independent acts like doing
chores without being asked, paying for
items at the store, keeping track of their
own things and picking up after
themselves.
Foster competence by teaching them jobs
they are able and ready to do – make a
bed, use a tool, cook a meal, or make a
snack.
5. Responsibility
Help them accept responsibility when
they are wrong. Let them know we all
learn from mistakes.
Give them long-term projects that
take more than one day to do and let
them be responsible for it. Let them
feel the pride of a job well done.
Praise them for following through.
6. Organization
Show them how to organize at home and
let them practice. First a sock drawer,
then a desk drawer, then parts of their
room…
Show them how you organize for home
and work (e.g. your calendar, your
briefcase, your home office)
“A place for everything, and everything in
its place.”
9. Language Arts
Things to do over the summer vacation:
Read regularly -- by yourself and with others!
Practice reading aloud to build fluency; and try to read like a storyteller…
use expression to make the story interesting!
Think about what you’re reading. While you read, write questions on sticky
notes to “talk to the text” and enhance understanding.
Talk about text, as well... retell and summarize… make predictions,
connections, and inferences… compare and contrast characters… evaluate
author’s purpose… imagine an epilogue to share with friends…
Write, write, write!!!
Keep a daily or weekly journal to collect memories of your summer
adventures and experiences. Add pictures and design a cover. Make your
journal your own unique creation to reflect your personality!
Find a spot to do creative writing. Share imaginative ideas and stories, write
about whatever your heart desires.
Practice writing your cursive letters and focus on neat handwriting.
10. Mathematics
