School Project — UK Year 4. World War II markawood
I was asked by my son’s class teacher to help Jonathan to bring one fact a day to school, on their new topic of World War Two.
This request came from a mutual desire to help Jonathan to see the value of school. Jonathan is a bright, thoughtful eight year old, who finds school a little noisy; he'd prefer to stay at home.
My aims are simple, to demonstrate the value of, being organised, working to a plan, being diligent in research, and that ‘work’ need not feel like work. So far, we've had fun preparing five facts for each week over the weekend. There has been no Dad taking over syndrome.
Students will examine the rise of socialism and fascism, nationalism and militarism, from 1930's Europe through America joining the war, after Japan attacks the U.S. at Pearl Harbor.

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.

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. The Road to War…
By the 1930s people were suffering unemployment and
poverty gripped the country, and radical political
governments in Europe meant that war loomed once again.
The Treaty of Versailles
The Great Depression
The Rise of Fascism
Ethnical problems
3. Appeasement and
Betrayal
The British PM, Neville Chamberlain,
joined by the French and Italian heads
of government met Hitler and signed
the Munich Peace Treaty.
They agreed that Hitler could take
some territories, and in return, he
promised not to invade any others
countries.
4. A Broken
Promise
Chamberlain had been
tricked. Hitler’s tank swarmed
into the rest of Czechoslovakia,
and invaded Poland.
Chamberlain made a radio
speech telling the British people
that they were at war with
Germany.
5. Blitzkrieg or Lightning War
How the tactic worked:
Bombers attacked enemy air bases, military
headquarters, ammunition depots and train
stations.
Stuka dive bombers swooped in machine-gunning
and bombing enemy front line troops.
Tanks broke through, calling in dive bombers to help
clear any obstacles.
Enemy groups were then surrounded and crushed,
while the main attack force advanced.
6.
7. Allies vs. Axis
• Allies:
Britain, France, and Poland, were
joined in December 1941, by the
United States.
Axis Powers:
Germany, Italy, and Japan.
Neutral Countries:
The soviet Union announced its
neutrality before the war and agreed
not to attack Germany in return for a
share of land in Poland. Later, Hitler
attacked the Soviets, who then
joined the Allies.
11. The Phoney War
The Nation waited anxiously, wondering when
the first air raids would strike, but nothing
happened.
People began talking about a “phoney” war and
some British politicians thought it might still be
possible to arrange a peace.
12. Winston Churchill
• Chamberlain was forced to resign,
opening the way for the old soldier
and statesman, Winston Churchill, to
become Prime Minister on May, 1940.
13. Dunkirk
On May, 1940, the British army and
thousand of their French and
Belgian allies were trapped at
Dunkirk. Hitler sent the German air
force to destroy the crowded port.
In response, Chruchill orderer and
emergency evacuation. He expected
the Royal Navy to bring back only
one tenth of his army. But, against
all odds, the Dunkirk rescue turned
into a breathtaking triumph.
14.
15. The Battle of Britain
Three weeks after Dunkirk, France
surrended and Hitler’s conquering
army began drawing up plans to
invade England.
On July, 1940, the Battle of Britain
started, with German bombers
attacking ships and airbases along
the southern coast of England.
Their plan was simple: to lure
Britain’s RAF fighter planes into the
sky and shoot them down.
16. A first victory
When the Battle of Britain began,
the RAF had just over 600 fighter
planes to defend the country against
the Luftwaffe’s 2,000.
The British pilots, who became
known as The Few, were often young
fresh out of school, and many had
never flown into battle before. But
they had good reasons to fight.
By September, the German Air Force
accepted that their mission to crush
the RAF had failed. It was Britain’s
first victory in the war.
17. Hell came to London
• Having failed to crush the
RAF, the German air force
had changed tactics. They
began pounding the British
capital with high explosive
bombs, trying to force
Churchill and his
government to beg for
peace.
18. Life during the Blitz
Despite all the dangers and disruption, most Londoners
managed to get on with their lives.
The fighting spirit of London was never broken.
19.
20. The Stronger Sex
As men were drafted into the army,
millions of women took up new
Jobs to keep the country fighting.
At the height of the war, a third of
all factory workers were female.
Every woman aged 18 to 50 was
called up for some kind of war
service.
Even in the countryside, life was
changing. By 1944, tens of
thousands of women toiled in the
fields as part of Women’s Land
Army, helping farmers plant and
harvest their crops.

24. The secret War
Churchill assambled a secret army
of spies, scientists and elite soldiers.
The war’s most amazing spying
success took place far from any
battlefield. A grups of British and
allied scientists had gathered at
Bletchley Park, to make sense of the
German military’s radio messages.
They built a machine that could
quickly run through millions of
calculations and by 1940 they were
decoding the German messages.
25. Cracking the Code
The most important brain behind
Enigma was a man called Alan
Turing. His machine saved
thousands of lives and helped the
Allies win the war.
26. Nazi Propaganda
The propaganda used by the Nazis was a crucial
instrument for acquaring and maintaining power, and for
the implementation of Nazi policies.
Moreover, was a strategy used to target some minrity
groups as enemies in the public mind.
The Ministry of Propaganda produced differents
elements of culture such as textbooks, radio,
newspapers, pamphlets, posters, and films.

29. The Holocaust
The Nazi Regimen wasn’t only about
war in itself and conquest
territories, it was also about target
and exterminate those minority
groups Hitler had blamed for the
economic and social crisis of
Germany.
For accomplish this aim, the Nazis
set up hundreds of concentration
camps across occupied Europe.
30. People in the camps were forced to
do slave work and lived in awfully
conditions, suffering from hunger
and diseases, and in constant fear
of their lives.
31. Jews, and anyone who didn’t
conform to the Nazi’s insane visión
of the world died in the camps,
victms of the Nazi’s racial prejudice.
They were shot, gassed or worked
to death by guards who had been
taught that camps inmates were no
better tan wild animals.
