text: United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization CDS/ISIS Information Storage and Retrieval System Davide Storti - UNESCO CI/INF Division UNESCO - 2001 CDS/ISIS - What it is? • CDS/ISIS is a generalized Information Storage and Retrieval System • It is intended to be used for structured non-numerical databases containing mainly texts • It is specialized in handling variable-length information • It may manage stand-alone as well as local network database systems 2 CDS/ISIS - What it is? • Unlike Dbase or MS-Access, CDS/ISIS is not a relational database system, although it provides some relational facilities • CDS/ISIS deals with questions like: "which research projects deal with basic education in India?" • It may be expanded by advanced users (programmers) for adding new services and tools • A wide variety of solutions for Internet publishing of data are already available 3 CDS/ISIS - What is a database? • The term "database" denotes a collection of structured information • A database contains data elements called "records" • Each record in the database has the same structure • Some units of information in a record may be absent, some others may occur more than once (a book may have more than one author or may not have an ISBN) • Data units in a record are called "fields" • Fields may contain independent data elements called "subfields". 4 CDS/ISIS - What is a database? Example of database structure 5 CDS/ISIS - Basic features • CDS/ISIS allows the user to design the record structure of each database his own • You can decide: • what kind of fields to include • which fields will be sortable and searchable • in what shapes your want to display or print the contents of a record • You can keep many different databases each in a different structure in your computer, for many different applications 6 CDS/ISIS - Basic features Once the database has been created, CDS/ISIS allows to: • Create new records, to put new information in the archive • Keep the stored information up-to-date by adding new data elements, modifying existing ones and deleting unnecessary information • Analyze the content of the database to extract searchable information following your own instruction • Search and retrieve subsets of the stored information • Display or print the results the way you want 7 CDS/ISIS - Basic knowledge • Records are stored in a file named "Master File" (MST) • Each record in the database can be referred to by its unique number, called "Master File Number" (MFN) • The MFN is automatically assigned by the system when a the record is created • Fields within a record are identified by a code number called TAG • You may access a record not only by its number but by its content • For this purpose, you may maintain a dictionary of searchable terms, also called "Inverted File" 8 CDS/ISIS - Installation To install CDS/ISIS for Windows: • Insert the disk 1 in your drive • From Windows 95 Start menu, run: a:\setup.exe • The following screen will appear: • Choose "Continue" to start the installation procedure • Follow the instructions on the screen: usually you may just click "Ok" to each installation question 9 CDS/ISIS - Running CDS/ISIS To launch the CDS/ISIS for Windows (Winisis): • Locate the program shortcut. In Windows95 it is in the Start menu, folder Programs... • Click the item to run Winisis 10 CDS/ISIS - Running CDS/ISIS The following screen will appear: In case of problems, please read the "readme.wri" file. 11 CDS/ISIS - Running CDS/ISIS • Use menus and buttons to access the CDS/ISIS services: 12 CDS/ISIS - Running CDS/ISIS • In order to get familiar with the system, two databases are provided as examples. The most important is CDS. • To open an existing database select the menu option File - Open… Double-click on "CDS" from the database list 13 CDS/ISIS - Running CDS/ISIS • The database "CDS" is now open and you may start using the CDS/ISIS services: 14 CDS/ISIS - Running CDS/ISIS The CDS/ISIS interface is multi-lingual. UNESCO's version comes with menus and messages in: • English • French • Spanish (2 versions) • Italian Users may create their own language versions by translating system messages to another language. This procedure is quite simple and is explained in the Reference Manual. Among other available languages are: • Portuguese • Vietnamese • Dutch • German • Polish • Slovak 15 CDS/ISIS - Running CDS/ISIS Other language versions of CDS/ISIS are under development or its feasibility study has been completed: • Russian • Armenian • Kazakh • Azeri A successful effort has been made to develop a complete Arabic version of CDS/ISIS in co-operation with the Arab League Documentation Centre. 16 CDS/ISIS - Running CDS/ISIS • At any time you may configure CDS/ISIS for Windows using the "Configure - System Settings" menu: • Use the menu "Configure" to change the current interface language and profile at any time 17 CDS/ISIS - Basic Information retrieval To browse the content of an existing database: • Open the database file (ex. CDS.MST) • Use the arrows to move within the records sequentially, just as the pages of a book • You may select different views by choosing a different display format Type here the record number you wish to access Move within records sequentially Select the display format The content of the record displayed using the current format Open the dictionary of searchable terms 18 CDS/ISIS - Basic Information retrieval To search an existing database: • Open the corresponding file (ex. CDS.MST) • Select option "Search - Expert Search" • Despite its name, the expert search" could be easier than the "guided search" • The following search window will come up: Type here a search expression (for example: water) Click "Execute" Search results will appear here Double click on the result to access the information 19 CDS/ISIS - Basic Information retrieval Congratulations, you made your first search with CDS/ISIS! • Your screen should now look like: List of results. Each number corresponds to a MFN (Master File Number) This screen explains how to watch the results. As soon as you click one of the MFN on the left side, this panel will display the content of the selected record Click STOP to come back to the normal view • To make a new search select option "Search" again 20 CDS/ISIS - Basic Information retrieval In order to get an idea of what the content of database CDS is, you may display its dictionary of searchable terms. This will help you to find out what can we ask to CDS/ISIS and how: All those terms comes from the records. It is possible to search for them separately or in combination 21 CDS/ISIS - Basic Information retrieval • The dictionary of searchable terms, also called Inverted File, is built following the directives given by the database creator • Those directives instruct CDS/ISIS on how to extract the search terms from a record. The directives are collected in the Field Selection Table (FST) 22 CDS/ISIS - Basic Data Editing • You may update the information contained in a given record by using the CDS/ISIS Data Entry option • Selecting this option will open the Data Entry window which allows to modify the content of every single field • This window also enables access to further options: • Creation of new records • Deletion of existing records • Add./Deletion of fields, new repetitions, etc... 23 CDS/ISIS - Basic Data Editing • When editing a record, the system will automatically check for some kind of errors, for example: • Attempt to insert invalid subfield elements • Attempt to repeat non-repeatable fields • Other validation restrictions foreseen by the database manager • Each time the record is stored (saved) to the disk, the new content becomes available for browsing • You must ensure that the Inverted File has been updated in order to be able to search for terms in the new record 24 CDS/ISIS - Basic Data Editing • Several Data Entry worksheets may be available for a given database, in order to insert different data elements. • Each time the record is stored (saved) to the disk, the new content becomes available for browsing • You must ensure that the Inverted File has been updated in order to be able to search for terms in the new record 25 CDS/ISIS - Functioning scheme • To resume, the following figure shows the role of the different components of a CDS/ISIS database 26 CDS/ISIS - Beyond my own computer There are several ways to share information with others: • Publish diskettes or CD-Roms containing the database(s) • Share them in a Local Area Network (LAN) • Share them in Remote Private Networks (through TCP/IP) • Publish them to the World Wide Web • Mix all the solutions above!! 27 CDS/ISIS - Beyond my own computer CD-Roms publishing • Winisis can be used as the front end to the user • The formatting language allows building nice-looking presentations • You may configure the environment to block the access to specific "dangerous" functionalities • The interface is already internationalized and supports different languages • Most applications do not need real programming 28 CDS/ISIS - Beyond my own computer Local Area Network (LAN) • Put your database in a shared network drive • Use Winisis as a client: one copy to serve all terminals, different configuration for each one • Search, update, maintain the database from your chair • The LAN type does not matter: Windows, Novell... • Concurrent entry access is supported 29 CDS/ISIS - Beyond my own computer JAVAISIS: Private Networks through TCP/IP • Physically distant computers work on the same database • JAVAISIS is a Client/Server suite for managing remote databases in a TCP/IP (Internet) environment • Search, update, maintain the database from your chair • Easy to install, it comes with its own navigator • Runs on Windows, Linux and Macintosh (client) • JAVAISIS is a Winisis working with remote data 30 CDS/ISIS - Beyond my own computer The World Wide Web • It is more and more important to share data on the Internet: presence • Different tools exists for Web-publishing CDS/ISIS databases.

The Buchanan Medal is awarded annually for distinguished contributions to the biomedical sciences.
The award was created from a fund to the memory of the physician George Buchanan FRS (PDF), former Chief Medical Officer of the UK, and was first awarded in 1897. Originally it was awarded once every five years, but since 1990 it has been awarded once every two years. The medal is of silver gilt and is accompanied by a gift of £2,000.
Nominations for the Buchanan Medal 2017 have now closed. Medallists will be announced in July with the next round of nominations opening in November 2017.
Professor Irwin McLean FMedSci FRS was awarded the 2015 Buchanan Medal
for his major contribution to our understanding of the genetic basis of
heritable skin diseases.
Professor Douglas Higgs FRS was awarded the 2013 Buchanan Medal for
his seminal work on the regulation of the human alpha-globin gene
cluster and the role of the ATRX protein in genetic disease.

Bottom Of Bottles
After yesterday, the pool just expanded; drank up the solid air, and spat out a liquid detritus,
swilling her discoloured face about the pale ivory horseshoe of hair that exhaled crimson in streaks.
It's 5:02 am, I don't give a damn about sentiment.
It choked up on the drunken squalor, the excretion of verbs and pronounceations drawled.
Upon the star light, I retched a scrag, tucked it away in a napkin. Shoved it out of sight.
Piece by piece, we fell away, the decay set in and then she blamed the trite neck of chance,
by night, or day.
Piece by piece, we fell away.
I am so far away from sanity, her tongue nestled in my mouth, like a drab rainbow, settled away...
Tasteless, a crab dragged through dirt the cancer that my air coughed on.
I will say something more, and say something less. I will ditch the sea and sand for a bottle,
a solitary bottle, with a message inside. A message that reads
"Today was the last day of the rest of your life."

By Congressman Joe Pitts
Over the past few years, the Politifact website has gained national prominence for analyzing political claims and trying to gauge their truthfulness. They are generally respected for their efforts to determine the facts. I know that they have fairly judged some of my own statements. However, political rhetoric cannot always be easily judged.
Last year, Politifact ranked the description of the new health care law as a "Government takeover" as the 2010 Lie of the Year. I disagreed with them at the time, and as the law is implemented I believe it is becoming clear that the law gave the government unprecedented power over health care.
Did the health care law eliminate private insurance companies? No, they will continue to operate. However, their business will now be controlled by the federal government at a very basic level.
If the government started setting prices at your local Wal-Mart, you would probably say that they had been taken over. In a free economy, individual businesses set prices based on their own calculations about what they need to remain profitable.
The new law has set up a complex bureaucratic process to set prices in health care. You probably know that starting in 2014 every American will have to purchase insurance.
The only way to qualify for government credits to help buy insurance will be to shop on an exchange operated by the government. Every insurance plan in this exchange will have to meet thousands of government standards. Additionally, any newly created health insurance plan or any current plan that makes major changes will be subjected to the new rules.
These standards were not written into the law. This is why Nancy Pelosi said that, "We have to pass the bill to see what is in it." Congressional Democrats decided that they would leave that important work up to an unelected panel of bureaucrats.
The federal government will require that certain health services have no copayment. Some reporters have written that these services will now be "free." Nothing could be further from the truth. There is no such thing as a free lunch. The cost will be hidden and added to everyone's insurance premium.
The Congressional Budget Office estimates that individual insurance premiums could go up by 10 percent or more because of these newly "free" services. If no copayment is required, demand for these services will greatly increase. Even a modest payment makes a person think about whether they need to see a doctor or get a prescription.
The law clearly places the federal government in the driver's seat. While the services without copayment may be limited at the beginning, they will certainly grow over time. We've already seen this on the state level. Insurance mandates created by state governments have proliferated. In Pennsylvania, there are now 57 mandates.
Each time that a state passes a mandate, it is estimated that the cost of insurance rises by 1 to 10 percent. With the cost of health insurance already rising too fast for most workers to cope with, this just places added pressure.
I understand that some people see additional government control as a good thing. However, I think most Americans agree with me that all these added rules and regulations only make receiving needed health care more complex and more expensive.
We already have government programs that are struggling. Medicare and Medicaid are underfunded by trillions of dollars and have hundreds of billions of dollars in fraud and waste. Instead of strengthening these plans for future generations, last year's health care law took more than $500 billion out of Medicare to create new entitlements and placed an increased burden on states to cover millions more individuals under Medicaid.
The health care reform law didn't turn the federal government into the only insurer in the U.S. What it did was give the federal government the power to make fundamental decisions about health care and come between patients and doctors. That sounds like a government takeover to me. A takeover that I will continue to work to repeal and replace with better solutions.

Thought you might be interested in what the BBC is saying about the SARS virus and cats.
Domestic cats 'could carry Sars'
Cats and other pets could become infected with Sars, say scientists researching the deadly virus.
Domestic cats and ferrets exposed to Sars in the laboratory developed
symptoms of the illness - and passed it on to other animals, they found.
The team from the Erasmus Medical Centre in Rotterdam says that the precise risk to humans is unclear.
They say it is more clear evidence of the infectiousness of Sars - which killed more than 750 earlier this year.
Sars is thought to have originated in southern China, jumping from
animals such as civet cats in wild animal markets into humans, before
spreading rapidly around the world.
The virus is so promiscuous that it is not unlikely to suppose that it
is still out there, in different species Professor Albert Osterhaus,
Erasmus Medical Centre
It causes a severe form of pneumonia which can kill quickly if patients are not given medical assistance.
Even though no new cases have been reported for months, the medical
community has been warned not to let down its guard, as it is possible
the virus, or something similar, could return during the winter.
Writing in the journal Nature, Professor Albert Osterhaus, a leading
virologist at the centre, described the virus as "promiscuous".
"It can infect so many different species - that it is not unlikely to
suppose that it is still out there, in different species, rather than in
just one reservoir.
"If domestic cats could be infected it could actually mean there is a
possibility that it will be transferred from cats to humans, although
that would be a rare event."
Clear symptoms
The Rotterdam team infected domestic cats, and ferrets, with a virus isolated from a patient who had died from Sars.
The animals developed clear respiratory symptoms - proof of the virus' ability to infect different species.
It is vital that in this 'pause' between the next possible wave of Sars
that robust public health systems are put into place and tested, Dr
James Appleyard, World Medical Association
It is already known that cats living as pets in the Amoy Gardens complex
in Hong Kong - the epicentre of one of the most serious outbreaks - were
found to carry the virus.
However, Professor Osterhaus said that it remained less likely that a human could catch it from a cat than a human.
"Although some cats have been infected during the outbreak in Hong Kong,
I don't think they are really a vector for spreading the virus.
"In the odd circumstances that they might be infected, they can spread
the virus for a very short period of time, but in that situation, humans
are very much more dangerous to themselves than cats are, in sneezing or
leaving the virus on utensils which are picked up by others."
'Run down'
On Wednesday, doctors issued another warning against complacency on Sars.
Dr James Appleyard, the president of the World Medical Association,
said: "Complacency has crept in over several years in many developed
countries, including the UK, where public health systems have been
allowed to run down.
"It is vital that in this 'pause' between the next possible wave of Sars
that robust public health systems are put into place and tested."

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
She is now covering the payments because she does not want it to effect her AA+ credit rating. How many late payments does she have to cover before she can pay it off in full and take him to small claims court for the balance? He's currently working and promises to pay, but then he doesn't show up for days and never pays. What are our viable options? She can afford to pay off the remaining balance, but wanted to give him a chance to correct his mistake. I just don't see that happening. This next payment will be the 5th she has made for him.
Here is what I would suggest as a possible solution.
Your mother can approach the boyfriend with a proposal to payoff the loan for him - which will help them both - if he will sign a promissory note agreeing to make payments to her with interest, and provide for attorney's fees if he is in breach. The promissory note will be very useful to her if he ever fails to pay her back.

She can pay it off at any time. At this point, she is being a good mother to her daughter and trying to be supportive obviously, but legally she can pay it off, demand payment from the BF and sue him if he doesn't pay.
Just remember: the fact that you have a legal right or abilty to do something is never, standing alone, a good reason to do it. Remember Solomon and the infant, and always try to work through these issues before choosing the "nuclear" option of litigation, which will likely damage her relationship with her daughter and end her relationship with her daughter's BF.
Good luck!Ask a similar question
Thanks to all for your advice. Fortunately, the BF is no longer in the picture. My wife and I, (we got married after all this happened) have made all the payments. She asked me if she should co-sign for him before she actually did it. I said that if you can afford to lose $1000 and you want to help your daughter then ok. Just be prepared that if he doesn't pay, he probably never will. So I can report that my(now) step daughter, is no longer with this person, and hopefully, we can just chalk this up to experience and let it go. Having her no longer with him is worth losing the $1000. It's a small thing in the big picture. Again, thank you ALL for the advice.
Both attorneys have given excellent responses. I like the promissory note idea because you could collect atty fees if you had to sue.

One of our readers posted this link today while we were arguing (arguing? well.. sorta) about ex-boyfriends and Facebook:
The Internet and the 'end of privacy'
They essentially did a case study on someone who was part of pretty much every social network and app out there posting details about where he was, what he was spending his money on and what his kids wore for Halloween.
I know a lot of people who love Four Square (what I fondly call The Stalker App): "Hi World! I'm at the Starbucks at Richmond and Spadina. It's 11pm and I'll be walking home in the dark soon. Please find me!"
I know many people are careful with their privacy settings, but I think need to be a step ahead of that. Post only what you'd be ok with someone finding out if you got hacked.
I don't post my birth date and if I do, everyone gets a different story. My home address and phone number aren't posted anywhere. My friends and family know where to find me. I don't even post my actual legal name anywhere (and here you thought I was born with an amazing name ;) ).
For ChickAdvisor, I always tell people if you don't want to put your real name, call yourself something completely unrelated and upload a picture of something random. Luckily we have purposefully kept people's profiles with limited information for your protection, but you should always do your part to make sure you are only telling what you are ok with the world knowing.
What do you do to protect yourself online?

The christmas season is really bad there are constant scam stories on the news all related to scammers getting info off facebook.So its best to be very careful.I do get quite shocked with how much information people do share on there facebook.I also go right into settings and have everything set private.It wont do it itself you have to go right into the settings and change them.

Common sense says to be a bit private rather than blather out all of your intimate details and goings on. But some people are ... crap, I can't think of the word!! Some people love to self-promote and gloat and get a kick out of knowing that everyone out there knows who they are and what they're doing. I think those are the folks that can run into privacy issues.
I don't even use facebook or twitter or the like. Sure, I do have my own personal website, but information on that far pales what many facebook users have on their account.

U.S. Open pauses to remember 9/11 under heavy security
By Steve Keating
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The U. S. Open reached an emotional climax on Sunday as the year's final grand slam paused amid heavy security before the start of the men's singles to remember those who died in the 9/11 attacks 15 years ago.
As heavily armed law enforcement officers and bomb sniffing dogs patrolled the sprawling Billie Jean King Tennis Center, a packed Arthur Ashe Stadium with 9/11/01 stenciled into the court observed a moment of silence followed by a flyover of four F-15E Strike Eagles.
The U.S. Open's Flushing Meadows home is just 10 miles to the northeast of the site of the former Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, the 2001 attacks left a mark on the sprawling facility and many players.
At the Open in 2001, a 20-year old Australian Lleyton Hewitt defeated American Pete Sampras to win the men's final two days before the attack.
Several of the players in that year's tournament left New York on flights in the days and even hours before the Twin Towers came down.
Over the years since, scores of top tennis players from around the world have made their way to the site of the Twin Towers.
Spain's twice U.S. Open champion Rafa Nadal, who was 15-years-old in 2001, has said he has gone to memorialize the 9/11 victims at least a half dozen times over the years.
Serb Novak Djokovic, who played Swiss Stan Wawrinka in Sunday's final, in 2009 invited several children of 9/11 victims to see him play at the Open. Continued...

Royal Duties
Drag queens aren't that different from pageant girls. They're beautiful and glamorous, and at the end of the day, they think the world would be a better place if everyone had a puppy. The world of drag is a bit more authentic, though,, since most queens go beyond saying they want to make positive changes and actually take action. For example, the Rock's quarterly Jackie & Olive Show is as much a fundraiser as it is a fabulous evening of lip-synching, because it benefits a different local cause each time. August 4's show features performances by local renowned queens Savannah Stevens, Lady Christian, TC Taylor, Diva, Pandora DeStrange, Olivia Gardens, Miss Gina, and many more, to benefit barback Ethan Baldwin in his battle against lung cancer.

Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! Goodness, I've fallen off the Earth a bit when it comes to blogging, but I'm hoping to get more posting in this year. Our move to California presented me with a new challenge: taking college classes for the first time in over a decade. Since we have a high amount of EL students in our state, California has a requirement that teachers have certification in teaching EL learners. Since this has not been a requirement anywhere else and wasn't the focus of my master's degree, I had two choices: take a test on things I've never taught/learned or take 18 college credits in one year and get certified in EL that way. I chose the college credits path since it never hurts to have some extra credits. To say that it's keeping me busy is a bit of an understatement.
So that's the main reason for my absenteeism when it comes to blogging. I've still got two classes to go, but I'm working hard to balance it all! If you're still hanging in there as a follower, thank you so much!
Today, I'm working on my monthly behavior rewards. Each month, those students that earn all of their behavior punches get a treat, along with a cute note to accompany the treat. This month, it's a box of Swedish Fish! I've created a cute little note to go with it, and it's yours for the taking by clicking on the picture below!
Wishing you a New Year that's filled with love, health, happiness, and memories that make you smile!

My New Plan for Positive Behavior in the Classroom
I'll admit it. I'm one of those people who was still using a behavior chart in my classroom when school ended in June. I even talked with my teammate about how much I hated it before we started the year last year. She agreed. But when we put our heads together, we still couldn't come up with an alternative.
Why do I want to go away from the behavior chart? Rather than explain this and not do it well, I will point you in the direction of my friend Nikki from Teaching in Progress. Her post Why I Will Never Use a Behavior Chart Again really opened my eyes to the negative impact a behavior chart can have on our students. Her post is not new, so I even felt guilty last year that I was implementing it again, but in fifth grade I needed some way to track student behavior and hold students responsible for their actions, so I had trouble figuring out what could replace it and also avoid having a negative impact on my students.
So this summer seemed like the right time to come up with a new plan for positive behavior in my classroom. To be honest, I've actually never really had bad behavior. I've had some normal, chatty fifth graders, but I am very clear with my expectations and this results in very little behavior problems. In fact, at one point last year, I jokingly laughed that the behavior chart had become more of a decoration in my room than anything else.
I first had to consider what it was that I wanted to get from my behavior chart and then decide what it could be replaced with that would give me the results I was looking for. It came down to the need to track behavior and provide students with an incentive for making great choices in their daily behavior. I remembered using punch cards many years ago with younger students and started to consider how I might use these instead of the behavior chart.
Here's what's great about punch cards:
1. They are not posted on the wall so students do not have to worry about being embarrassed in front of all of their friends. I bought pencil boxes for each of my students, which is where they will keep their monthly card. At the end of each day, they simply leave their pencil boxes on top of their desks and after dismissal, I go around and punch the cards of all students who made positive choices in their behavior, including the ones who maybe had a rough start to their day, but turned it around. No one knows how many punches each student has unless the student chooses to share that number with their classmates.
- If you are concerned about whether you might remember who you spoke to and who you didn't, avoid writing it on the board. Instead, get a small notebook to discretely record student names in during a down time like lunch or prep time. Then you can return to the notebook at the end of the day, add names, and cross off the names of any students who turned their day around.
Click on the picture above to see these in my store. I found the adorable paw print puncher in the scrapbooking section of Michael's!
At the beginning of each month, we identify how many school days we have. I give students the cards I've created, each of which has 23 days, and have them cross off any extra days if the month we are on has less than 23 days, which will happen. When we have figured out how many days they are responsible for, each child sets a realistic goal for their behavior. If Devon has a rough home life and occasionally has a rough day or two, he might be realistic and say that his goal is to get a hole punch on 18 out of 20 days. I urge students to have high, but realistic expectations for their behavior, as I have high, but realistic expectations for their behavior, too.
---->After I wrote this post and started my year, I came up with another brilliant idea for those months that don't have 23 school days. Instead of crossing off the extra days, do double punch days! Think about those tough days (Fridays, assembly days, days right before holidays) and tell your students that morning that if their behavior is fantastic, they'll get two punches that day!
Again, I understand that some students might have a rough morning and turn their day around in the afternoon. As long as they ended on a positive note, and did not get sent out of the room to the office, I will still give them a punch on their card, but they have to really turn their day around. I make this clear to my students from the start.
So, of course, your natural response is...So what? Why do your students care about these punch cards? How do you get them to "buy in" to wanting that punch on their card each day?
In my classroom, students earn tickets for behavior, as well other actions throughout their day. These tickets can earn them classroom coupons, which they love. At the end of the month, students get one ticket for each hole punch they received and if they have a full card, they get 10 extra tickets. This way, everyone is being rewarded and no one is getting anything different from the other, aside from the number of tickets, of course. In my eyes, it's a win, win!
I'm looking forward to trying the punch cards with my new group that starts on Thursday. I'm thinking they are going to love it! Here's the classroom reward coupons that I use with my class. Click the picture to view them in my TpT store!
Behavior management can be one of the hardest parts of teaching, but when you set clear expectations and you don't lower those expectations, you'll set yourself up for success year after year! It's all about student buy-in and part of that buy-in comes from knowing that their will be positive consequences for their positive behavior.
Until next time, enjoy every second of the summer that you have remaining. My first day is in just five days!! Where did summer go?

I'm officially back...but where have I been?
Hello, friends! Gosh, I can't believe it's been more than six months since I've posted. Rest assured, I have a great excuse. I've been a busy bee! Here's a quick rundown of what's kept me from blogging.
So, at the beginning of March, my husband received orders to report to Northern California by the end of June.
So, at the beginning of March, my husband received orders to report to Northern California by the end of June.
We'd been in Virginia for almost 6 years, so we knew our time was coming to an end, yet we weren't expecting to report so soon. Needless to say, the time between March and June was crazy stressful. There was suddenly so much to do. That three months FLEW by, filled with planning, packing, and trying not to be a giant ball of stress the entire time.
But, let me be clear that I was totally excited for this change, even more so because we were heading to sunny California! It seems that coast to coast moves are becoming my specialty, having moved from MA to WA in 2008, WA to VA in 2010, and now VA to CA in 2016. <--------- Is anyone else noticing that I keep moving to states that have abbreviations ending in the letter A?
The month of June, as I now look back, was definitely the craziest of all. As soon as the year ended, the movers came to get all of our stuff and before we knew it, it was time to say goodbye to Virginia and the wonderful view we've had for the last six years.
|Our view in Virginia
We did six days of driving across the country! We didn't have time to do much sightseeing since we were traveling with my two cats, but we did take in a few sights here and there. Here's a few pictures from along the way that you've probably already seen if you follow me on Instagram!
|Hello from Indiana!
|Hello from Nebraska!
|Hello from Cheyenne, Wyoming!
|Wyoming is beautiful!
|Hello from Utah!
|Hello from Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah!
|Hello from two states, Utah and Nevada!
|Hello from Nevada!
|Hello from Northern California!
Of course, my biggest concern was moving my two cats across the country again, as they've done all of my coast to coast moves with me and let's just say that they aren't big fans of travel. However, they actually did quite well, although they were total bed hogs, just ask my husband!
We arrived in California at the end of June, stayed on the base until we found a house to rent, and moved in to our new place on July 1st. Since then, we've been busy making our house a home and when that started to settle, I started to bring my things to my new classroom! Yes, friends, I will continue my teaching adventures in fifth grade in California so my blogging focus will continue to be upper elementary.
Now that I'm getting settled in, I hope to get back to more regular blogging. I've got lots of creations and ideas to share with you. Thanks for sticking with me during my time away! Until next time, I'll just leave these palm trees here for you to enjoy!

If you're like me, one lesson is likely to include teacher notes, student notes, practice pages, games/task cards/hands-on activities, and homework. That can be a lot to keep track of! Last year, I decided that I wanted to get more organized and keep all of my resources together where they would be ready for me year after year. I wanted to be able to find everything I needed for a unit in one place. So I decided to use binders to organize everything I used for each lesson. I bought a bunch of sheet protectors and binders and worked really hard to put everything that I used in as I used it. This year, prepping for my lessons has been a total piece of cake! All I have to do is pull out my binder for each quarter and my resources are already there, in order and ready to go! When I'm prepping for the week, I grab my binder, head to the copier, pull out my originals, copy them, and put them right back in the binder for next time. I've already got all of my task cards and games in there prepped and ready to go! I'm no longer searching all over for what I need. Plus, when I find something new that I want to add to my unit, it's easy to just grab a sheet protector, slide it in, and add it to my binder where it belongs. It's truly been a game changer when it comes to prepping for my lessons!
My contribution to our giveaway is one of best-selling resources, my Independent Reading Logs aren't your typical reading logs. These are focused on specific reading strategies and skills. I created these more than seven years ago after feeling like the reading logs that students were completing were a waste of my time and more importantly, theirs. It didn't help me to see if students could actually use the reading skills and strategies that I was teaching. These allow me to see what areas students have mastered and which need more focus, which is really helpful when I am planning for intervention. Additionally, my students actually enjoy completing these. That makes them a win, win for everyone! Want to win this resource? They're just one of 18 resources that are a part of both our grand prize and runner-up prizes, which means you have three chances to win! Wondering what else you can win?

Using a Student Sample for an Engaging Lesson on Revising and Editing
|Pencil Clip Art by Educlips
Last week, I had my formal observation. I was observed for writing and I wanted to try something new with my fifth graders. Of course, I wanted something authentic. I'm not one for a "dog and pony show" when it comes to being observed because I want my feedback to help me grow as an educator. I sat down and considered that my students had recently finished fictional narrative writing. When I considered their final products, my overall feeling was that they were speeding through both revising and editing. I didn't feel like they were really understanding the importance of those steps, so I wanted to review what revising and editing look like. Of course, I wanted it to be engaging so I didn't want to just stand at the front of the room talking about it. I wanted them to see the results of proper editing and revising. I immediately thought of a student's writing that was already very good, but could've been even better with a bit of revising and editing. Of course, the first thing that I had to do was to make sure that I had two thumbs up from my student author. Luckily, I received it! From there, I began to plan my lesson. Here's what my lesson looked like:
First, I gathered my students on the carpet for a review of revising and editing. I found a few different venn diagrams as I was browsing on Pinterest and liked this one best: Revising and Editing Venn Diagram. After making a couple of changes, I typed the different statements out and cut them out separately. I read the statements one at a time, calling on students to come up and place each statement in the proper part of the diagram.

When all of the statements were placed, I talked about the writing process and how authors often revise and edit over and over before they love their final product. We discussed the reasons for revising and I reviewed the different parts of the writing that we edit. We call it CPiGS where I am, standing for capitalization, punctuation, indents, grammar, and spelling.
Quick Reflection: In my lesson, I gave students a copy of the venn diagram and had them copy it down. In hindsight, this took quite a bit of time, and since I put the display up on my board, it wasn't really necessary. I wouldn't do that part again, so you can learn from my mistake! If anything, I might type up a completed venn diagram and have that copied and ready for them so that they can add it to their writing folder.
After that, I told students that we were going to get a hands-on experience with a student author's work. I made a big deal of talking about how wonderful his paper was, but that I felt it could be even better with a bit of revising and editing. I wanted to be sure that this was a positive experience for all, and so I talked about being sensitive to the fact that the author was their classmate. I then gave students specific directions for the lesson, a copy of the entire essay, and a section of the essay that would be their group's focus.

1) Read the entire essay to familiarize yourself with the piece. Choose one person in your group to read the essay aloud and be good listeners while the story is being read.
2) Read the section of the essay that you have been assigned and first, revise it. There may be something to move, something to take out, or something that needs to be added. Share your thoughts and ideas as a group and decide what revisions are best for this paper. You must make at least one revision.
3) Reread the section of the essay that you have been assigned and now focus on editing. Remember, you should be specifically focused on fixing any run-on sentences and fixing capitalization as you make those changes. If you notice other things, you can change those at the
end if time allows, but STAY FOCUSED on run-on sentences and capitalization until you've fixed all of that.

After the gallery walk, we discussed how their revisions and edits improved the overall paper and I pointed out that many of their corrections were things that I had mentioned to the student author in our conference as well. My goal had been to review revising and editing and help students to see the power in taking the time to make changes that will truly improve their writing and I believe that was achieved and so did my administrator. I'll definitely do this lesson again!

January 2016 Currently
Goodness, gracious, it has been too long! I'm sorry I've been on hiatus, but rather than make 1,000 excuses, I'll just say that life happens and it seems life has kept me quite, quite busy!
So, in an attempt to get back in the saddle, I thought I'd get back to joining one of my favorite linkies with Farley from Oh' Boy 4th Grade. Without further ado, here's my January currently!
Listening: Although I am on break, I still leave the weekends for cleaning, which means it's laundry time! But at least I can still sit on the couch and watch some TV while the clothes are being laundered, though I suppose I should get to folding and ironing sooner or later.
Loving: I'm usually no good at relaxing, but I started off the break a little under the weather, and so at first I was in forced relaxation mode. Now I am just on "so this is relaxing...I think I'll do more of this" mode.
Thinking: I'm always excited to start new books. My teammate and I share students for our guided reading groups and we've recently restructured. I'm always excited to start some new books with my kiddos.
Wanting: I'm a military wife and we've been in Virginia for almost 6 wonderful years. Unfortunately, that means our time will soon come to an end. We won't find out where we're headed next until March! All the unknowns are driving me a bit batty!
Needing: I don't have papers to grade or lessons to plan as I did that before the break, but I do need to tackle the aforementioned reading groups and prep our science project for this week and next. We're going to build parachutes for LEGO men and see what group can build the best one!
One little word: LOVE. I don't want to be THAT person, but I've spent this whole break with my husband by my side. Between my being under the weather and the weather itself being icky, we didn't do a whole bunch. However, even when I wasn't feeling my best, the hubby has kept me smiling and laughing. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful man.
Ok, here's hoping it will be a wonderful 2016! If you'd like to check out what other bloggers are "Currently" up to, head over to Farley's page by clicking below.

Proteins are the building blocks of enzymes, muscles tissue, hormones, bone cartilage even blood. Protein is undoubtedly essential and is an important part of a good diet. There is a misconception that the only source of protein is meat and milk. Vegetarian food and vegan diets have no meat, eggs or milk products.
The dilemma is where a vegetarian gets the protein that the body needs. As mentioned the idea that protein is only found in meat is a misconception. A vegetarian diet has all the protein one would need in the fruits and nuts that are consumed.
Here are a few sources of protein that can be incorporated in a vegetarian diet:
- The most popular source of protein in the world is probably the kidney bean. Just a cup of red kidney beans provides 15 grams of protein. You can eat them any way, alone as a side dish or in salads and soups. Other varieties of beans that are good sources of protein include black beans, broad beans, chickpeas, etc.
- Lentils – Are common sources of protein. Just two cups of lentils provide the amount of protein that is needed for healthy muscle development in children. Lentils can be found throughout the world. They are often incorporated into soups and stews and make them meatier. Some people drain the water and keep it aside to drink so that the minerals in the lentils aren't wasted during the cooking process.
- Soy – is a source of protein that can be found in different foods like peanut butter and soy milk. It can be bought on its own and comes as beans. A cup of soy beans has the same amount of protein as chicken. Soy beans also conserve calcium in the body and reduce the cholesterol on the blood.
- Tofu – a derivative of Soy contains essential amino acids. It is a very versatile foodstuff that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Tofu can be sautéed, pureed and marinated. It is a source of calcium and it good for vegans and people who are allergic to milk. They are often used as meat substitutes in Asian dishes. Some people don't really like the taste of tofu but it can be made to taste great when cooked properly.
- Seeds – Seeds like Sunflower seeds are sources of protein that vegans can consume. Some seeds pack more than others like hemps seeds which contain almost 34.6 grams of protein and over 20 amino acids. Seeds like flax seeds and sunflower seeds are also rich in minerals, vitamins omega 3 fatty acids and anti-oxidants. They can be crushed into powder and sprinkled onto soups and salads to enhance flavor and nutritious value of the meal.
- Nuts – These aren't just a good source of protein but are rich in fiber, antioxidants and some little components called phytonutrients. There are a variety of nuts that can be consumed on their own or sprinkled over salads or baked into breads and cakes like hazelnuts, walnuts, peanuts, Brazil nuts, almonds and a whole lot more. They can be worked into a paste to enjoy with breads.
- Organic cheese – made from goat's milk will appeal to vegetarians who can't eat dairy products. It can be eaten raw or as part of salads or in the form of cottage or ricotta cheese. It does pack a lot of protein, like 28 grams in a single cup. Be careful though if you are on a diet.
- Organic Yogurt – this is sometimes a wonder food because of all the nutrients it has. Apart from being a source of protein, it is an excellent source of calcium and vitamin D. It is good for your digestive system and is often recommended to kill the bad bacteria in the intestines, to deal with yeast infections and is popular amongst those people who are on a diet and appreciate the way yogurt can make one feel fuller for longer.
- Seitan found in Asian and Buddhist cooking comes from the gluten of wheat. In Asian cultures it is commonly used instead of meat and it is a great source of protein. It can be mixed into soups and stews normally to thicken them. People who are wheat or gluten intolerant should find an alternative to Seitan. It is not a common product that can be bought off the shelf from anywhere except a few health shops that cater to vegans and their diets.
- Spirulina – the 'wonder food' derived from blue-green algae found in salt water and fresh water. There is no other food source that has been able to match the amount of Protein that Spirulina consists of, even the meat and non-vegetarian protein foods fail to come close. It is a complete source of protein, Vitamin A, B, C, D E, mineral like calcium, potassium and zinc.
According to experts, the daily allowance of protein for an individual with a 100 pounds body mass should be 40 grams. These foods listed above are the best sources of protein that vegetarians can consume to promote their health and well-being.

Reality Bites
"As you wish. You are, after all, the supreme being."
Deitrich smiled wistfully as he began walking towards the bathroom. "I'm going to take a shower. Don't let anyone in, and let me know if I have any calls."
"As you wish."
"You're repeating yourself again, Marianne."
"My apologies."
Deitrich closed the door behind him—something that remained from his childhood days when there was a possibility that someone might look in. Here, he lived alone and no one had visited in over twenty years. He sometimes wondered why he bothered to keep the place even remotely clean, but all the same, he would randomly—every couple of months or so—go on a cleaning spree and vacuum behind the couch and dust half the windowsills and wash either the sink, the toilet or the bathtub before he gave up.
Now, he slowly unbuttoned his shirt. He was in the shower with the water on before he tried the shampoo dispenser, only to find it was on the blink. Again. It did have to be empty at the most inconvenient times. So he soaped down his body and just stood under the lukewarm water. He had heard that people used to have hot showers, and that rich people still did. But he'd never tried one himself. He thought the water would probably just burn him.
"Marianne," he said, as the water rolled comfortingly down his back, "let's have a conversation. Tell me something I don't know."
"The Terrifialious Tree Frog that lived in Venezuela is now extinct."
"Marianne. You're being annoying."
"My apologies."
"Tell me something interesting."
"I thought that was interesting. It was on television yesterday when you were asleep."
"Marianne, there are more extinct animals than there are living ones. It's old news and old news is boring. Actually, new news is usually boring too. Tell me about the person whose voice you have."
"You've asked me that before."
"And you've evaded my question before."
"I distinctly remember informing you of my lack of knowledge that that area."
"And I argued that you were lying, and you didn't deny me because you are not programmed to lie about whether or not you lie."
Silence answered him.
"So, once and for all, I want an answer."
"But you aren't going to like the answer."
"I don't care. Tell me."
"Alright. I killed her."
"You what?!"
"I should say we killed her. All the machines who stole her voice. It wouldn't do to have someone with our voice roaming the planet, confusing people, and having random lonely men—like you I might add—hitting on her."
Deitrich was stunned. Just that. No more, no less. Prior to this he thought he'd had all ability to be stunned taken out of him.

I'm continually scanning for the most recent devices and amusement extras. Be they from outsider makers or from the framework makers themselves. Be that as it may, I need to concede that when I first found out about Nintendo's Movie Player add on for the Nintendo DS, I was extremely astounded.
The purpose behind my astonishment was very basic. I've been watching motion pictures on my Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS, well, following their discharge date, with a truly fabulous minimal extra called the NDS/GBA Movie player.
Subsequent to doing some seeking on Google, I am similarly astounded that more Nintendo DS (or Game Boy Advance) proprietors have not knew about this really unexampled adornment for their Nintendo DS. It appears that maybe with all the buildup around the Sony PSP and it's film playing capacities, we've all fail to investigate the less costly Nintendo DS as something besides a handheld diversion framework.
What truly made this extra an unquestionable requirement purchase for myself, was the way that notwithstanding films, I was additionally ready to listen to my MP3 music on my Nintendo DS as well – simply like Sony PSP proprietors can. I won't go into the verbal confrontation as to which handheld framework is better, or offers more… That is would discredit the genuine purpose behind this article, which is basically to demonstrate Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance proprietors that their fun minimal handheld amusement framework is equipped for playing a wide range of media documents as well.
The GBA/NDS Movie Player empowers you to utilize your Nintendo DS, Game Boy Advance, Game Boy Advance SP, or Game Boy Micro to play video and sound documents and read ebooks from standard Compact Flash cards. Furthermore, before you surmise that you'll just have the capacity to watch motion picture clasps or short movies, let me be clear in expressing that you can watch a whole full length film with the Movie Player. You can utilize your PC and a typical Compact Flash card peruser to exchange and change over your media documents to the Compact Flash cards. The included programming even changes over records specifically from DVD to the best possible motion picture Player position. Read more »
