Throughout the United States, we are feeling the rippling effects of family separation policies by immigration officials. How do we explain these painful experiences to children? How do we hear and honor children's stories?
My father's family was torn apart by World War II, and I have always found refugee stories powerful. They let me connect to my own family's history, and help me extend my grandmother's experiences to those of children in my classroom. Here are a few books that I would recommend to children ages 9 to 14. For younger readers, seek out Front Desk and Stormy Shores. Older readers will appreciate the suspense and understand the terrifying situations in The Only Road and Refugee.
Front Desk, by Kelly Yang (Scholastic, 2018): Mia's family has recently immigrated from China, and finding a steady job has been really tough for her parents. When an opportunity to manage a motel comes their way, they leap at it. Mia's excited that she can help out, managing the front desk while her parents clean the rooms. Kelly Yang bases this story on her own experience, immigrating from China to Los Angeles. She weaves humor and compassion into her story, while frankly addressing poverty, bullying and the importance of family.
The Only Road, by Alexandra Diaz (Simon & Schuster, 2016): Twelve-year-old Jaime flees his home in Guatemala after a local drug gang kills his cousin Miguel. Jaime and Angela, Miguel's sister, travel north alone, navigating the treacherous journey by bus, train and foot. This gripping novel not only shows the violence and abuse Jaime and Angela survive, but also how painful family separation is for children.
Alexandra Diaz has been honored with the Pura Belpre Author Honor Award, the Américas Award and was a finalist for the International Latino Book Award. I'm excited that The Crossroads, the sequel to The Only Road, will be published in September.
Stormy Seas: Stories of Young Boat Refugees, by Mary Beth Leatherdale (Annick Press, 2017): This powerful nonfiction book combines brief memoirs, clear information and dynamic collage illustrations, making this an engaging introduction to immigration experiences of children during 20th and 21st centuries. Each chapter focuses on a child fleeing war, oppression and conflict in Nazi Germany, Vietnam, Cuba, Afghanistan, and Africa’s Ivory Coast.
Refugee, by Alan Gratz (Scholastic, 2017): Gratz alternates the stories of three children from different periods of time, each of whom are fleeing their homes in search of refuge. Josef is escaping persecution from Nazis in Germany during World War II. Isabel and her family are fleeing Cuba in 1994, escaping the riots and unrest under Castro's rule. And Mahmoud's family flees Syria in 2015 after their home was bombed. These parallel stories are engrossing and compelling. The structure keeps the suspense high, and helps readers see how each character must cope with extreme stress, separation and loss. Gratz uses historical fiction at its best to help readers understand global issues in a way that inspires hope and empathy.

Are you looking for a book to keep your kids laughing and asking for more? Do they love goofy, over-the-top stories with lots of illustrations? My students love-love-love Andy Griffiths' Treehouse series.
What kids wouldn't want their own ever-expanding treehouse, with a bowling alley, a limitless marshmallow-launcher, a swimming pool, a watermelon-smashing room, and a rocket-powered carrot-launcher?!?! The Treehouse series originated in Australia and has become a best-seller in the United States, Britain, the Netherlands, Norway and South Korea. The 91-Story Treehouse which hits shelves in the US this week.
I'm happy to welcome Andy Griffiths here to share about his vision and purpose creating this best-selling, crowd-pleasing series.
"The Treehouse series is a comic-adventure-fantasy which employs lavish illustration & graphic nonsense on every page in order to tell a very silly but involving and complex story with a minimum of words.
This gives us an unusually broad and passionate readership of emerging, reluctant and highly competent readers from 5 - 13 years old and we are especially proud that the series has equal appeal for both boys and girls.
Each book in the series (and they can be read in any order) features a brilliant always-on-task writer called Andy—that’s me—and Terry, the irresponsible and easily distracted illustrator living in an ever-expanding fantasy treehouse while trying write a book for our bad-tempered & demanding publisher Jean Feiwel—I mean Mr Big Nose—who, if he doesn’t get his book on time gets so mad his nose explodes—but the problem is we can’t write the book because Terry keeps getting distracted by all the crazy stuff going on in the treehouse and then our intrepid and ever-resourceful neighbour Jill comes over and helps us sort it all out and then we write the book about all the crazy stuff that happened while we were trying to write the book and then we send it to Mr Big Nose just in time to prevent his nose from exploding."
The New York Times compares Andy Griffiths to Roald Dahl, which I think is apt.
"Mr. Griffiths’ work is both witty and fantastical, with a dark edge not dissimilar to Roald Dahl. In person, however, he is humble and thoughtful, if tightly coiled, with the taut, sinewy body of a long-distance runner and zany green eyes."
I'd argue that the visual nature, drawing on cartoons and comics, makes these stories even more appealing to today's kids.
Why 91 stories in this treehouse, you might wonder? Griffiths began with 13 levels in the first book back in 2011, and has added another 13 levels every year since. So you get the secret numerical code hidden in the titles: 13-26-39-52-65-78-91. Next March will bring The 104-Story Treehouse, which will bring the US completely up to date with Australia.
If you’re wondering, our secret agenda—aside from evoking the exhilarating joy and freedom of imaginative play and converting non-readers into passionate book-lovers—is to teach children the sadly neglected 13 times table."
My favorite part? I love how Andy gives total permission to laugh at anything -- whether it's stinky underwear or stuffing your face with marshmallows. He tells plenty of poop jokes, because he knows his audience (hello, have you listened to 8 year old boys?), but he also gets us laughing at our greatest fears.
He's got some great tips for young writers here. Also check out his website FAQs to learn more about his process.
Many thanks, Andy, for all your creative storytelling and for working so hard to keep us all laughing. If you make a purchase using the Amazon links on this site, a small portion goes to Great Kid Books. Thank you for your support.
I just returned from my annual "Librarians Gone Wild" weekend, otherwise known as the American Library Association Annual Conference. I'm filled with gratitude for my fellow librarians who help me think more carefully about my craft, and for the authors and publishers share their stories with us.
Time and again, I was reminded of the power of stories and the responsibility we have in finding stories that will lift up young people. From former first lady Michelle Obama to best-selling debut author Angie Thomas, I was reminded of the important role stories play in our lives.
Michelle Obama opened our conference in conversation with Carla Hayden, the Librarian of Congress. I was inspired by the way she described the very ordinariness of her extraordinary story: "I grew up with music, art and love -- that's about it. There's no miracle in my story." Even more so, she talked about how important it is to learn about each other's stories and how we're all trying to figure it out. This video captures a key moment of her talk.
As a child, I often felt unsure--unable to connect to my peers, alone yet surrounded by people. Books filled my imagination, helped me see myself and feel connected to the world.
As a teacher, I have seen this same power of stories again and again. Stories can fill children's hearts and emotions, giving them courage when they feel most alone. Stories can spread laughter when everything around us seems heavy. They can help us see ourselves in other people's stories. They can make us feel less alone.
Erin Entrada Kelly, winner of the 2018 Newbery Medal, spoke directly to this. "My greatest wish as a writer is that the person reading my book -- or any book, for that matter -- feels less alone." She, too, often felt alone as a child, and it was through books that she discovered friends and companions.
Yet children must see these stories as a piece of themselves. They must see themselves in stories, for when we don't recognize ourselves, what can anchor us--as Nina LaCour (author of We Are Okay) said in her Printz Award acceptance speech.
Every day we are bombarded with terrible news, from school shootings to police brutality to inhumane immigration policies. Angie Thomas (author of The Hate U Give) said, "I often wonder what's the point of creating fiction when our society has failed young people so much." Yet I see every day young people determined to make it, to love and laugh and walk in this world. We need to give our children the message that the things they do, the people they are, all that they care about has value.
In his preface to Out of Wonder, Kwame Alexander quotes poet and author Lucille Clifton: “Poems come out of wonder, not out of knowing.” I think the same can be said of our children. They grow when they are given the love, support and encouragement to wonder. We must listen to them, see them, love them.

A research design that focuses on understanding a unit (person, site or project) in its context, which can use a combination of qualitative and quantitative data. Click an approach on the left to navigate to it... Qualitative data are the answers we collect from our market research that are open ended. They are the responses we get in the respondent�s own words, not constricted by scales or structure. Qualitative data gives us the �why�, not the statistics and numbers.
1/19 Quantitative data analysis . First of all let's define what we mean by quantitative data analysis. It is a systematic approach to investigations during which numerical data is collected and/or the researcher transforms what is collected or observed into numerical data.... Quantitative data is 'number crunching' data, used for quantifying information segments. This is a basic statistical form of data, considered raw data before analysis, and statistical data after the relevant controls are used to check for accuracy.
The Two Main Flavors of Data: Qualitative and Quantitative At the highest level, two kinds of data exist: quantitative and qualitative . Quantitative data deals with numbers and things you can measure objectively: dimensions such as height, width, and length.
The advantage of converting qualitative data into quantitative data is that the source of qualitative data�a direct encounter of the user�s experience�can reveal nuances in usability, perhaps otherwise missed in more formal quantitative experiments and surveys.
If qualitative data is used to create a survey or questionnaire, do you consider the qualitative data to be inconsequential or superficial to the research model? Are there types of qualitative data that make for better quantitative instrument production, i.e. focus groups, case studies, interviews? Could you justify using qualitative data in a quantitative analysis in your area of interest?

Recent scientific research has clearly shown the link between poor oral health and chronic diseases such as Heart Disease, Arthritis, Stroke, and Diabetes.
Many Australians have poor oral health because they have not visited a dentist for over 12 months. Evidence of the above diseases takes years to emerge but when it does the conditions are established chronic illnesses. Early diagnosis and treatment of gum inflammation will save you pain and money. An annual dental check- up is essential to your long-term good health.

The Strip Steel business unit is composed of the operating companies of Salzgitter Flachstahl GmbH, Salzgitter Bauelemente GmbH, Salzgitter Europlatinen GmbH and Salzgitter Mannesmann Stahlservice GmbH.
The Strip Steel Business Unit produces, processes and sells strip steel in a wide variety of metallurgic compositions and dimensions.
The largest company in the business unit is Salzgitter Flachstahl GmbH (SZFG) ,which operates one of the most state-of-the-art and environmentally-friendly integrated iron and steel works on the planet at its Salzgitter site. The facility produces almost 5 million tons of crude steel as well as around 3.5 million tons of rolled steel every year. The unavoidable carbon dioxide emissions generated in making steel from iron ore have been reduced down to near the technical minimum possible for this process, and substantially undercut the emissions of non-European competitors. The gases released during the production processes are captured for use in the company’s own power plant, among other applications. As a result, the site covers its electricity requirements almost entirely in house and impresses with excellent energy efficiency.
Sustainability is a key element of our philosophy. SZFG has been repeatedly acknowledged by the German Energy Agency (dena) in recent years for its energy efficiency. This included winning the “Energy Efficiency Award” in 2013 and being awarded the “Best Practice Label” for energy-efficient pig iron production in 2014.
Our systems technology enables us to achieve the most minute tolerances in metallurgic compositions as well as dimensions – essential prerequisites for producing steels of the highest quality. In order to achieve this, we make targeted and continuous investments in our plant technology. Our strip steel is therefore ideally suited for tackling the most challenging applications across a range of customer sectors. The company’s iron and steel works is one of the most efficient production sites in the European hot rolled strip sector and is one of only a handful of steel producers that can provide sheet in automobile body quality.
Over 65 % of SZFG’s sales stem from the automobile sector – not just automobile manufacturers but also suppliers, cold rollers as well as steel service centers. Another 20 % of the company’s products are purchased by industrial companies (e.g. household device producers and the mechanical engineering). The 8 % supplied to the tube industry is also of vital importance – from large-diameter pipes through to pipes for fuel injection systems. Approximately 3 % is supplied to the construction sector (roofing and walls). Within the Group, SZFG also supplies the plants within the Plate / Section Steel Business Unit with around 900,000 tons of slabs per year.
SZFG is a series supplier and development partner to technology leaders in its target segments. We strive to be leading innovators for steel products in the automobile chassis and bodywork sector as well as for cold rolling and household devices. In order to achieve and defend this position, we are committed to an intensive research and development cooperation program with Salzgitter Mannesmann Forschung GmbH as well as other partners within the industrial and academic arena.
One particular strength of the Strip Steel Business Unit is its high level of flexibility and the capacity to make rapid decisions in response to changes in customer demands. The flat hierarchies allow rapid and targeted processes – often in direct coordination with customers.
A portion of the strip steel volume produced in Salzgitter is processed by companies from within the business unit. Salzgitter Europlatinen GmbH, for instance, produces laser-welded blanks from various strip steel grades (tailored blanks) for the automobile industry, while Salzgitter Bauelemente GmbH makes profiled sheets and sandwich components for the construction industry.
The Strip Steel Business Unit is rounded out by the two steel service centers belonging to Salzgitter Mannesmann Stahlservice GmbH in Schwerte and Karlsruhe, offering comprehensive pre-processing options and a processing capacity of more than 600,000 tons per year. The branch office in Fellbach ensure the availability of service for customers nationwide.

Hey, we get it. The 4th quarter of 2018 was a difficult period to be invested in the equity markets. After a 2017 when volatility reached an unprecedented low and the markets seemingly appreciated every day; 2018 saw two early 1,000 point declines on the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) on February 5th and 8th and finished the year with 2, 3 and 4% swings in both directions.
Let's take a look back at volatility in the S&P 500 in 2017 compared to 2018.
In 2017 the S&P 500 had eight +/- 1% moves in the entire calendar year, that's right 8 !
In 2018 we had 64 - that's 8x's as many +/- 1% moves on the S&P 500 compared to 2017.
In 2017 the worst daily loss was 1.82%, in 2018 it was 4.10%.
the greatest intra-day turn around on record the day after Christmas when the DJIA started the session with a 350 loss only to rally over 1,100 points to post a near 5% gain.
Months like December make us, as investment professionals, remember what we believe in as a firm. There are 5 basic fundamentals that have always proven reliable to a successful investor in the equity markets. Let's start the year with a recap of these fundamentals.
#1 - Understand the Risks of Investing.
Before you commit to investing it's important to understand the risk and timing trade-offs of an investment portfolio. There are no tricks, the longer you are committed to invest, the better your chances to be rewarded with a gain.
To drive the point home, a chart showing the best and worst case range of stock market returns over different time horizons may be helpful. The longer you hold on to stocks, the less variable your returns are, as the up and downs of the market become more muted over time.
Historically, over a one-year time interval, stocks can make wild swings, ranging from a 54% gain to a 43% loss. But if you're investing for a longer time, and looking at a 10 year horizon, average returns fell in a much smaller range, with a return range of +20.1 to -1.4%.
#2 - Understand Investor Emotions.
It's important to understand that when you enter the equity markets you must be committed. You must have the discipline and the fortitude to buy when the sky is darkest. By the same token, you also need the discipline to humbly sell and take profits just when you feel like you have solved the Rubik's cube and your picks will only go higher. We have used the chart below many times over the past 90 days. When investors reach fear, panic and despondency (as has occurred in the most recent quarter) the markets are usually set for a turn-around. But that's the exact moment when most investors exit the markets with an "I can't take it anymore" utterance. Many of those same investors only feel ready to return to the markets when optimism and euphoria once again take hold. Unfortunately, that is the moment of maximum financial risk.
#3 - Ignore the Noise.
Investors have a very difficult time buying when it's the darkest and selling during sustained rallies to re-balance their portfolios. A Charles Schwab study analyzed the returns of some popular funds in comparison with the actual returns in those funds experienced by individual investors. What they found was that individual investors, in the aggregate, experienced lower returns than the funds they were invested in - evidence of that consistent investor mistake of getting in late when things are already good (and preparing for a downturn) and getting out early when things turn bad (and are preparing for an upturn).
Inevitably, markets do correct. It never feels good no matter how fiscally or mentally prepared you are. Corrections are the natural re-setting of company valuations and are part of the normal order in the markets. The good news is that markets have batted nearly 1.000 in their ability to recover from a correction and move higher in a reasonably short period of time. Since World War II the markets have experienced 10 monthly sell-offs greater than 10% and only once (1973) have the markets not moved higher over the next 12 months.
#5 - Markets Can't Be Timed.
Missing even just the best 20 trading days over a 15 year period can cut your potential return in half. Wouldn't it be great to miss the bad days and only be invested on the good days? Of course, nobody has ever solved that riddle . . . nobody! Having a plan and staying fully invested over the longterm has proven time and time again that it's the simplest and best way to achieve consistent returns.
There's nothing new in this White Paper, but just as the markets need to reset from time to time, we too need to occasionally revisit the basics. WT Wealth Management has written over 75 monthly white papers since 2013 trying to educate our clients by lifting back the curtain that covers the mystery of the equity markets - which have always been a tremendous way to accumulate wealth if you don't outsmart yourself. Years like 2017 - with extremely low volatility and steady market appreciation - are the exception. Years like 2018 - with greater volatility and sometimes increasing / sometimes decreasing valuations - are closer to the norm.
To be clear: Just because we recently experienced a market correction doesn't guarantee there's a rally around the corner or that magical returns are inevitably ahead. We have many unresolved issues facing us in 2019. What will the Federal Reserve do on interest rates? When will the trade war with China end? What will reports on domestic and global economic growth show? What will corporate earnings look like in Q1? What will corporate forward guidance be for 2019? How will new congress work with the President? Does the Mueller investigation come in to play? How will Brexit end? The list goes on. But regardless of the current uncertainties, we believe that following the five fundamentals of investing will maximize your chances of longterm success.
Lastly, we encourage you, as always, to be in touch with your financial advisor to schedule a meeting, revisit your plan, review your goals and make sure that the noise doesn't deter you from realizing your dreams.

Drawing Academy is the online drawing course and art community where art students from all over the world can learn how to draw in comfort of their homes, rely on art teachers’ support, get critiques on their artworks, publish their art online and get feedback from fellow students and website visitors. You can learn how to draw whatever you see or imagine with this online Drawing Course and with the benefit of the support of The Drawing Academy’s Art Community.
Even if you have already attended art school for your BFA or MFA you likely could use more time and attention focused on your drawing practice. Perhaps you always wanted to try silver point drawing techniques, or you are interested in exploring ancient art theories. Many of the Drawing Academy drawing lessons are advanced and have a European or classical focus, such as Drawing Lesson 24, Part 1, on the golden proportions of a human body and universal principles present in nature, science, and art. You can watch a free video lessons here to help you decide if this course is for you.
This drawing course is focusing on teaching traditional drawing skills that are no longer covered in depth in contemporary art colleges. The Drawing Academy’s curriculum includes fundamental principles of constructive drawing, linear and aerial perspective, golden proportions, rules of composition, human anatomy, and even some almost lost techniques of the Old Masters like Gold- and Silver-point drawing that is not taught in any other art institutions. These fundamental rules and know-how of drawing give art student ability to draw whatever they see, think or imagine.
The Drawing Academy’s teaching method is based on the principle “Draw what you know, not what you see”. This is especially important when drawing human figures and portraits. Without necessary understanding of a human anatomy for artists and the knowledge of constructive drawing principles, figurative artworks from life or imagination would always end up looking amateurish.
To help students to achieve success, Drawing Academy tutors show on their own example how to draw proficiently. All 45 video lessons demonstrate the complete step-by-step creation process from a blank piece of paper to a finished artwork. There are also multiple bonus videos, art books and albums provided in addition to the main Drawing Academy curriculum.

Can I run LinkFixer Advanced during business hours, when some files may be open?
It is possible to run the Inoculate process (for example) during business hours. Files that are open will be skipped, flagged and reported in the reports as being in use. These files could then be inoculated in a subsequent run of the Inoculate process, at a time when the files are not in use.
However, the best practice is to run LinkFixer Advanced after hours or on weekends, when most files will be closed and accessible for processing.

Personalized sessions are individually scheduled. To be sure we have plenty of time to spend with each child, we allocate up to an hour for each personal session. Session times can vary, depending on each child's personality.
We like to personalize your session as much as possible. While we do have many props in our studio, we prefer to use your personal items to make the portraits that much more meaningful.
Shoes are typically not photographed and therefore not necessary to bring.
In addition to our studio props we keep the following communion items on-hand for your use in case you forget or have not yet aquired them.
How many pictures do you typically take during a session?
Obviously each child is different and the number of images we create during a session will vary. Our goal is to create approximatly a dozen different poses with an equally varying variety of communion and traditional backgrounds. Several images are usually captured of each pose. So, in this manner, somewhere between 30 and 60 images are created during a session. We then edit them down to the best expressions before your preview session. During your special preview session we will help you narrow down the images we present to you so that you won't feel overwhelmed. Don't worry, we make it easy!
How early should I schedule my appointment relative to the First Communion date?
The earlier, the better. Often our clients choose to purchase a wall portrait of a favorite image from the session. With some pre-planning we can have this image printed, framed, and ready to display at a family gathering or party the day of the First Communion. We have loaner easils to highlight your special print where the gathering takes place. We also create sign-in boards.
Six to eight weeks is a comfortable lead time for a portrait session prior to an event. We can often accomodate even the tightest of scheduls and we also do create many portraits after the First Communion date as well.
Really, why should I come to this studio?
Simply put, you'd be hard-pressed to find another studio that will put as much enthusiam, energy and creativity into your First Communion Portraits than Peter M. Budraitis Photography.
At Peter M. Budraitis Photography, we have a blast with First Communion Portraits. It's some of our favorite sessions to do. TheY're a fun and happy occassion to capture an important milestone in a child's life.
There are a few unique factors in particular that separate us from other studios.
We offer one of the widest variety of backgrounds for First Communion Portraits you will find anywhere. We have stained glass backgrounds, church backgrounds, numerous communion-themed scenic backgrounds and as well as a large collection of tradition backgrounds.
You will be absolutily thrilled with the portraits we create AND we GUARENTEE your complete satisfaction with a 100% Money Back Guarentee. Whatever photographer you consider, ask if they will offer you the same ABSOLUTE SATISFACTION GUARENTEE!
Your child will be photographed in a professional, fully equipped, state-of-the-art studio by a Photographic Craftsman* with over twenty years of experience as a professional photographer.
*Peter Budraitis has earned the Photographic Craftsman Degree from the Professional Photographers of America (PPA).
