The masque of the red death2
- Symbols are things that represent other ideas or meanings, and are commonly used in literature. Allegories tell a story that simultaneously represents other abstract concepts.
- In an allegory, the surface story must engage readers while the underlying meanings must also be accessible. Poe's story of arrogance and death works on both the story and symbolic levels.
- Poe's fictional Red Death was likely based on the real Black Death plague of the 14th century, which killed millions in Europe. The story features a prince throwing a masquerade ball to ignore the plague raging around him.

This document provides an overview of a professional development session on processing the Common Core ELA shifts. It discusses the three main instructional shifts required by CCSS: building knowledge through nonfiction, reading and writing grounded in evidence from texts, and regular practice with complex texts. It then covers why each shift is important and provides examples of scaffolding strategies for complex texts. The document outlines the session agenda, which includes analyzing sample texts to determine complexity, working with text-dependent questions, and debriefing lessons learned.
Writing portfolio requirements
The document outlines writing portfolio requirements for students including 5 assignments that must be typed: 1) a timed writing on overcoming an obstacle with 3 paragraphs, 2) a summary of a Lancet article, 3) a poetry analysis, 4) a personal essay, and 5) a personal narrative. It provides formatting instructions for typed papers including font, spacing, indentation, and file saving. Students are directed to type and print their papers, saving them with their student ID number and assignment title. Directions are also given for a 4 paragraph personal narrative on a chosen prompt.
Outline of poetry analysis-July 11th
The document provides a sample template for analyzing a poem. It includes sections for an introduction, three body paragraphs analyzing quotes and poetic devices from different stanzas and lines, and a conclusion. The introduction would mention the title, poet, and subject of the poem. Each body paragraph analyzes a quote's meaning and how it conveys the poet's message through devices like imagery and figurative language. The conclusion restates the devices used and how effectively they conveyed the poem's overall meaning.
Safe sleeping reducing
Placing babies on their backs to sleep, using a firm sleep surface, and avoiding soft bedding can help reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The "Back to Sleep" campaign recommends babies always sleep on their backs to lessen the risk of SIDS, which is the sudden and unexplained death of a baby under 1 year of age.
Airway article
This study examined airway covering of infants during bed-sharing compared to cot sleeping through video monitoring in a sleep lab. The study found that most infants (14/20) experienced some airway covering while bed-sharing, compared to only 2/20 while cot sleeping. However, no consistent effects on oxygen saturation or heart rate were observed even during prolonged covering. All covering was initiated by parents and most terminated by parents as well. Some potential compression by parental limbs was observed but of short duration and terminated by infant movement. The study concludes that while airway covering occurs more in bed-sharing, the data does not support the hypothesis that it poses risks to infants.
Tuesday, march 20, 2012
The document provides instructions and activities for a 9th grade English research unit. It includes directions for completing assignments like a sponge activity, reading articles on co-sleeping risks and SIDS, and learning how to integrate sources through proper quoting, paraphrasing and summarizing. Students are given objectives for conducting research, citing sources, and developing their writing skills according to Common Core standards.
Research review activity airway covering during bed-sharing
The article summarizes a research study that examined airway covering during bed-sharing. The study involved parents and children spending three nights under observation, with the first night serving as a control and the next two nights involving different sleeping arrangements (either solitary or bed-sharing). Physiological data on the infants such as heart rate and oxygen saturation was continuously monitored and synchronized with video recordings. Observers were trained to code the recorded information to ensure reliability and consistency in the analysis.
Safe sleeping vocabulary list
This document provides a list of vocabulary words for an English 9 class to study for an upcoming test. It includes 30 words related to topics like science, medicine, reasoning, and more. Students are instructed to create a study sheet to review the definitions of the words before the end of class.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
