5.0 out of 5 stars Customer satisfaction., 27 April 2016
I received a free sample of these subsequent to purchasing the RAVpower USB Charger on Amazon. The charger is excellent. Unfortunately, the cable set will not fit my mobile phone as it is 9 years old and connection sockets have moved on. A new phone will set this right and I'm working on it. However, on inspection the cable set looks OK. I can only say that the supplier (Sunvalleytec-UK) are in the business of customer satisfaction, which is refreshing today.
4.0 out of 5 stars So far so good., 23 April 2016
Bought two of these. Works on the neighbourhood cats except two. However, they are the two I like and don't mind having them about as they don't foul on my patch and are very affectionate. Also, one of them is not well looked after by a neighbour and comes to me as a second home. Either they have a high tolerance, a hearing problem or find a way around triggering the device. They are very artful. I think four would be preferable, pointing to the four compass points, then our furry friends would have to run the gauntlet of a 360 degree challenge to their antics. They therefore need careful sighting. A neighbour has this device and no cats now disturb his vegetable patch. I previously had two similar devices that also worked but didn't last long. These new devices seem to be more robust. I charged them using the RAVpower USB charger (available from Amazon) before sighting them in the garden. It took seven hours to achieve full charge but they seem to be holding the charge well.
5.0 out of 5 stars Please to say I chose the right product., 23 April 2016
I bought this USB Charger to recharge my two newly acquired Electronic Cat Repellers, which it did admirably. British sunshine is not a particularly reliable source to keep such gadgets working efficiently. The charger is well made and I'm future-proof for any other device I may acquire. Also received delivery promptly. Thanks all round.
5.0 out of 5 stars Ideal Eco Lighting, 27 Jan. 2016
This review is from: Philips 8718291789994 5 W (50W) 3000 K 36D GU10 LED Spot Light Bulbs - White, Pack of 2 (Kitchen & Home)
I bought 3 packs of these Philips lamps to replace the 6 original 50 watt Halogen GU10’s in my kitchen. There are two ceiling units each with 3 lamps = 6 lamps using 300 watts total, plus the heat. With these LED’s the power consumption is reduced to 30 watts total without the heat and give a brighter white light, which I find ideal for a kitchen. They make white look white and not yellow. One of the original Halogen lamps exploded and tripped out the safety switch in my lighting circuit. These LED’s fit into the lighting unit perfectly and provide ideal Eco lighting.
5.0 out of 5 stars Improve your wine., 17 Dec. 2015
Plain, unfussy yet stylish piece of glass that complements my wine glasses. I enjoy minimalist designs. Not as fragile as it looks and it pours well. Red wine should be decanted for at least 2 hours before drinking. Even modest wine benefits. It was offered at a bargain price on Amazon marketplace at the time of ordering and delivered promptly by the supplier.
Andrew James 12 Litre White 1400W Digital Halogen Oven Cooker With Hinged Lid - Full Accessories Pack, Spare Bulb, Extender Ring + 2 Year Warranty
5.0 out of 5 stars I consider this a good recommendation for the Andrew James model, 10 Dec. 2015
This review is from: Andrew James 12 Litre White 1400W Digital Halogen Oven Cooker With Hinged Lid - Full Accessories Pack, Spare Bulb, Extender Ring + 2 Year Warranty
I have delayed my comments until after 4 months use of this oven so that some aspect of reliability can be assessed. It replaces a previous Andrew James model bought 4 years ago, for which the original halogen bulb was reliable throughout. Eventually the manual timer became unreliable but it was the Fan/motor that failed. I have a neighbour who had three other halogen ovens (not by Andrew James) during this period, the bulbs of which failed and were not replaceable except by returning the oven to the manufacturer under the guarantee whilst it was valid. I consider this a good recommendation for the Andrew James model.The hinged lid does not fall closed if it is properly and completely opened to its maximum - totally perpendicular - which means that it should not be left at an angle. The oven should not be moved with the lid open. However, I agree that extending the lid does require some coordinated effort with pressing a button, holding it and then lifting the lid. I have consistently made excellent sponges in the ring cake tin provided. I do most of my cooking wrapped in foil, opening it for browning during the final stages. This also helps to keep cleaning to a minimum. The digital timer is excellent, easy to set or cancel, with a clear display and is far better than the original mechanical timer. I don’t use the auto settings except for the wash. Most halogen oven cookbooks give appropriate cooking times. This halogen oven is more energy efficient than my gas cooker, especially cooking for one. Cooking chips is easy without the special attachment. Just use a heat resistant silicon mesh easily obtainable and cut to size with scissors; it does the same job.
Pre-Lit Wooden Flickering Candle Bridge Arch Window Table Christmas Decoration with 7 Candles - Size 48cm, Natural Pine
5.0 out of 5 stars I have seen this item advertised online at various prices ..., 3 Dec. 2015
This review is from: Pre-Lit Wooden Flickering Candle Bridge Arch Window Table Christmas Decoration with 7 Candles - Size 48cm, Natural Pine (Kitchen & Home)
I have seen this item advertised online at various prices from �16 to �28. I paid around �19 ordered through Amazon marketplace. My experience with Amazon has always been positive. It arrived within three days. It works perfectly although one bulb did not light. It was just a matter of screwing the bulb in a little more. I have several spare bulbs left over from a previous Candle Bridge (not this type) that kept blowing the fuse and was discarded (probably a wiring fault).The bulbs are wired in parallel and so if one lamp fails the others remain alight. The pine candleholder is smoothly finished with a matt sheen. It is built in two halves that are joined together. If viewed in a certain light it can appear that one half is darker, but this is because one half reverses the grain of the wood. This enhances the grain pattern of the natural material. The whole effect is attractively ‘rustic’. I have made 3D giant snowflakes out of paper that hang in the window, below which the Candle Bridge is flickering away quite merrily.
5.0 out of 5 stars Art Deco style for today., 15 Feb. 2015
OPIS is a German Company responsible for the design and development of this retro style phone, although it is made in China. It closely resembles the Western Electric model D1/202 circa 1930 Art Deco period phone, which was a `workhorse' in the USA during the period. This retro phone has an authentic appearance, notwithstanding its modern plastic casing, (the 1930 original was moulded in zinc alloy). Installation is simplicity itself; just plug it in - no display screens and memories to set up. It comes with a UK adaptor for connection to BT Phone Outlets (or a BT answering machine in my case) and supports DTMF Menu Control (Touch Tone Dialling) suitable for telephone Banking etc. It also allows last number redialling - #/R.The ring tone is electronic and not a bell. The original 1930's phone had a separate bell base that could be attached. There is no room for a bell in the phone itself, as it is so svelte. There is a Hi/Low volume switch under the base of the model I received, although it appears that some earlier versions may not have this. It comes configured for touch-tone operation; pulse dialling is not much of an option for modern applications. The casing on the black version resembles a Bakelite finish that gives the phone a more solid look. Sound through the handset is loud and clear, and the length of cable connecting the phone to a standard UK wall outlet is a generous 4+ metres.Having grown up with manual exchange telephones of the 50's, (pick up the phone and wait for the operator - "Number please"), and later GPO dialling telephones, I am not in the slightest way inconvenienced by having to dial the numbers. In fact, to use these telephones offers a therapeutic exercise in simplicity in today's fast-paced, information-overloaded and stressed-out world. Add the esoteric satisfaction that the Art Deco design imparts, and there is a style that is way out of reach for modern DECT phones. Time will tell as to reliability.
5.0 out of 5 stars The Balanzza seems robust and is ergonomically designed for easy handling, with the read-out screen uppermost for easy ..., 11 Aug. 2014
Weighed my empty luggage case, rated by manufacturer at 3.1Kg. The Balanzza showed 3.05Kg consistently, the difference being insignificant and suggests that the luggage case manufacturer gives a higher figure to be on the safe side. The Balanzza seems robust and is ergonomically designed for easy handling, with the read-out screen uppermost for easy reading. And one needs only to lift the luggage from the floor a couple of inches to read the weight, which stabilizes and beeps after a couple of seconds.

This review is from: Energizer OM1 Digital Camera Battery Equivalent to Olympus BLM-1 Battery (Camera)

Housewife @ Work: Bibingka & Puto Bumbong
Christmas is nearing and as early as now you can see Puto Bumbong and Bibingka being sold along the streets. These are the two favorites among Filipinos during Christmastime. If you gonna visit Philippines on September and onwards you will have a great chance to taste these two.
Ingredients for Bibingka includes rice flour, sugar, coconut cream, eggs, baking powder, grated cheese, butter, salted egg, fresh grated coconut and salt. Special Bibingka filled with more cheese and salted egg is being sold and really tasted great. I usually eat this during my visit in Manila.
Puto Bumbong is a purple-colored Filipino dessert made of sweet rice cooked in hollow bamboo tubes that are placed on a special steamer-cooker. When cooked, they are removed from the bamboo tubes, spread with butter and sprinkled with sugar and niyog (grated coconut). They are then wrapped in wilted banana leaves which keep them warm and moist until ready to be eaten. Like Bibingka, Puto Bumbong is inexorably linked with Simbang Gabi--the Catholic mass celebrated at dawn on the nine days preceding Christmas.

By Josh Barr By Josh Barr May 14, 2011
Nick Howard was 0 for 5 and was hit by a pitch in his first six at-bats Saturday as St. John’s chased its first Washington Catholic Athletic Conference title in six years. He also was the losing pitcher in the first game of a doubleheader, as ninth-ranked DeMatha forced a decisive game in the best-of-three championship series.
Then, with the bases loaded in the top of the fourth inning, Howard made sure the day would be remembered as a success for the Cadets. His grand slam over the left-field fence broke the game open as St. John’s beat DeMatha, 10-3, at the University of Maryland’s Shipley Field.
“I was trying to get a pitch down the middle and hit it back up the middle,” Howard, who has signed with Virginia, said shortly after a teammate placed a pie tin full of shaving cream in his face. “It got elevated a little bit.”
The home run gave St. John’s an 8-1 lead that was more than enough as Justin Korenblatt pitched 31 / 3 innings of scoreless relief to close out the victory.
Joe Camp also homered and Jerry Chavarria singled twice for St. John’s (22-8), which had won Game 1 of the series on Friday night, 5-0, but lost Saturday’s opener, 4-3.
Howard, who has pitched sparingly this season because of arm soreness, allowed four of the first five batters to score in that game before settling down a bit too late for the Cadets to get a two-game sweep.
In between games, though, St. John’s remained confident. One player, seeing his older brother in the stands, asked him to get a can of shaving cream for a postgame celebration.
The Cadets have been a powerhouse in recent seasons only to fail to win in the playoffs. This season, though, they entered as the WCAC tournament’s fifth seed and beat three higher-seeded opponents.
“I think everybody would agree this league is as balanced as it has ever been going into the tournament,” Coach Mark Gibbs said as a lengthy postgame celebration was just getting started. “Obviously, not being 100 percent healthy and not having Nick available [to pitch was difficult], but it’s a tough league.”

Photo diary. Partisan hospital, Bohinj and old city centre of Kranj.
I just got back from the amazing all-day trip with my dearest fiance. It was sunny, a little bit cold and full of interesting things I got to see:)
In the rugged terrain in western Slovenia, there's a remote gorge called Pasica where Slovene Partisans built a partisan hospital back in 1943 - in the middle of Second World War. Franja partisan hospital ran until the end of war in May 1945 and due to its remote location(hidden in the forest), accesable only by bridges it was never discovered - although the occupying Wehrmacht forces launched several attempts to find it. Today it's a museum and it is protected as cultural monument of national significance.

Cold, Hard Facts - tribunedigital-chicagotribune
Attenborough Examines The Antarctic's Hostile Environment
March 14, 1994|By Kenneth R. Clark.
NEW YORK — Sir David Attenborough had it straight from the experts: No one but a suicidal idiot would dive through a hole in the Antarctic ice and wave a camera around under the nose of a 12-foot leopard seal while it was busy hunting penguins.
Doug Allen, a cameraman with the BBC's Natural History Unit, couldn't wait to do it. It was the equivalent of arguing with a polar bear at the other end of the globe, or with a great white shark somewhere in between, but Allen survived the encounter and returned with footage the likes of which never before has been taken by anybody.
Attenborough, one of the world's foremost nature documentarians, was simply blown away.
"This animal is as savage as any there is in the Antarctic seas," he says. "So Allen gets in the water and this leopard seal comes for him. The only thing he has to defend himself with is the camera, so he puts it between him and the seal and the seal comes up with these huge jaws and actually engulfs the camera!"
At the unfamiliar taste of metal, the seal, which even a killer whale will not tackle, backs off, but, as Attenborough says, "in a most extraordinary manner.
"He actually goes and catches a penguin and comes with it in his jaws and presents it to the camera as though he were a cat, bringing back a mouse to its mistress."
Of such scenes is "Antarctica: Life in the Freezer" constructed.
The three-hour National Geographic Explorer special, which Attenborough says is the most exhaustive film report ever made on Earth's southernmost continent, is slated to air on TBS cable Monday from 7:05-10:05 p.m. So alien is the terrain and the teeming life that occupies it, from uncountable billions of tiny squid-like krill to the humpback whales, sea birds and penguins that feed on them, that the documentary might have been shot on another planet.
As Attenborough puts it, as he walks across Antarctica's central plateau-a place so cold and so devoid of moisture that anything exposed to the elements there is almost instantly freeze-dried-"Here, human life is not just insignificant; it is totally irrelevant."
"Life in the Freezer" is peppered with lore dear to the heart of a trivia collector: the continent is surrounded by 90 percent of the world's ice, locking up three-fourths of the planet's fresh water; fish in unfrozen water beneath huge sheets of ice don't freeze because their tissues are "loaded with antifreeze"; winter temperatures frequently reach 90 below zero-with 120 m.p.h. winds.
But it is the diverse population of this alien world that bemuses and intrigues. Bull elephant seals slug it out like contenders for a heavyweight purse as they defend their harems; Chin-strap penguins must fish in the sea, but choose to "commute" in up to an hour of rigorous mountain-climbing to reach their chicks on high cliffs where they prefer to nest; Macaroni penguins-tough guys with punk haircuts and bad tempers-prowl constantly in search of a fight.
Attenborough says Antarctica shows little evidence of the human depredation that is wrecking the environment in more hospitable climates.
"One must remember, Antarctica is simply enormous," he says. "It's 1 1/2 times the size of the United States and in the whole of that area there are 800 people (in scientific outposts). Human beings have been on every other continent on Earth for millions of years, but they didn't even reach Antarctica until 250 years ago."
Still, Attenborough says Antarctica may not always be free of jeopardy.
"The biggest threat will be if the nations of the world decide to harvest krill," he says. "Krill is the source of energy for the whole of the ecosystem. If you really reduce the population of krill, it will have a devastating effect among whales, seals and penguins and everything else. If the Japanese acquire a taste for krill, God knows what will happen."

1-2-3...Get Organized: Guilt-Ridden Clutter
What is guilt-ridden clutter? Guilt-ridden clutter is clutter you have accumulated because you think you "should" keep it in order to do something with it.
For example, do you have a collection of gourmet cooking tools or cookbooks because you think you "should" become a better cook?
Have you become the recipient of antiques or collectibles that you "should" keep for sentimental sake? Or sell on ebay?
I'm not saying that these are not noble ideals. But don't keep things just because you "should." If your heart is not in it, why keep the clutter?

They are ok for a laugh but not if you really are looking for something. So I searched for dating website for real relationship and I found this globogirls.com and it was really good, it is a good way to see what is out there. There are a lot of different people in different countries, but some good ones too. The good thing about it is that it's totally secure because they have the feature of video chatting with these girls so you'll not share your personal contacts unless you're 100% sure , One thing that I really liked was the tips on how to avoid scam and fraud.ReplyDeleteAdd commentLoad more...

best practice | Inside the classroom, outside the box!
“Instruction does not prevent wasted time or mistakes; and mistakes themselves are often the best teachers of all.” By James Anthony Froude
Instructional strategies are one of the most important elements for an engaging and effective learning environment. When instructional strategies are linked to the needs and interests of students along with being tied to the curriculum, outcomes, and assessment; learning is enhanced. Below are some of my favorite engaging instructional strategies:
Playlist and/or Pathways
R.A.F.T (Role, Audience, Format and Topic)
QAR (Question Answer Response)
Visual representation (pictures, manipulatives etc)
Teach Me/Show what you know (videos, books etc)
Content Areas (SS, Science etc)
Discovery/Inquire Based Learning
Debates/Role Playing
Alternative/Authentic Assessments
Digital Instructional Strategies: Using technology as a tool to increase effectiveness and efficiency for the student, teacher, and parent.
Collaboration with Google Drive apps such as docs
Read&Write for Google Chrome and Drive
Blogging, Vodcasting or Podcasting
Books and Sites for more engaging strategies:
Students Taking Charge: Inside the Learner-Active, Technology-Infused Classroom by Nancy Sulla
Dyslexia is a specific reading disability and it causes the brain to process graphic symbols differently. It is characterized by difficulties in word recognition, spelling, and decoding; as well as reading comprehension. The National Center for Learning Disabilities says that dyslexia is a neurological and often genetic condition, and not the result of poor teaching, instruction, or upbringing; nor is it linked to intelligence.
It is also something that may affect up to 20% of people. However, symptoms can present as mild, moderate, severe, and everywhere in between. Some people may be able to develop enough coping skills to manage to get through school without too much support, yet their self-esteem might take a hit because they start to believe they aren’t as smart as everyone else. Students with dyslexia that is unrecognized will start to believe that they are lazy, not smart, not as good as their peers and this can profoundly affect them for life.
Begin by educating yourself, whether you read an article or two at the bottom of this post, or take advantage of a workshop in your area. Talk to the reading specialists in your school, or the special education teacher to help you with strategies you can use. Helping kids develop a growth mindset can also have a big impact. Children who are dyslexic, or struggle with dysgraphia or dyscalculia need to be taught differently than their peers. They need a systematic approach that will teach them to process written language in the way best suited for how their brain is wired. These approaches can be found in the offerings of Orton-Gillingham, or the Barton program, among others.
Unfortunately, the public schools in North Carolina do not specifically test for or diagnose dyslexia. If it severe enough, it may show up under the umbrella of “specific learning disability” but that’s not always a guarantee. North Carolina is one of 11 states that does not yet have a law addressing the specific learning needs of students with dyslexia. Fortunately, there are groups that are working hard to change this. In the meantime, as teachers we need to be a voice for all our students and do what we can to help them reach their full potential: be compassionate, be empathetic, and know the power you have to make a big difference in the life of a child.

From the TBR Pile: A Year of Weddings Novella 1 & 2 by Denise Hunter & Deborah Raney
A Year of Weddings Novella 1 & 2 by Denise Hunter & Deborah Raney
Over the next 12 months, Zondervan (HarperCollins Christian Publishing) is releasing a new novella each month as part of their "Year of Weddings" series. You can read more about the titles on the Zondervan website. Today, I have the first two for you.
A December Bride features characters from Barefoot Summer. Layla and Seth have known each other for a long time. He used to be the best friend of Laya's ex-fiancee. In order to spare herself the humiliation of going to his wedding (to her cousin) alone, Layla agrees to go with Seth.
I thought this was a sweet romance. Layla and Seth were perfect for each other. What starts out as an innocent lie grows into something that neither of them can deny. I loved all of the little things that Seth did for Layla. I absolutely loved their HEA. It was also nice to visit with some of the characters from Barefoot Summer. A great start to the novella series!
Who can work in a house that's overrun by contractors and carpenters? Not Madeleine Houser, a successful novelist who gladly accepts the help of her octogenarian friend, Ginny, to arrange for a temporary office in the charming bed and breakfast owned by Ginny's friend, Arthur.
The second in the series, A January Bride features two characters who fall in love before they ever really meet. I enjoyed this one. I liked the idea of the characters getting to now each other through notes and letters. The most amusing part was that each of them thought the other one was old.
Arthur has been mourning his wife's death for a few years. Madeleine has been unlucky in love. They were perfect for each other. Maddie was just what Art needed to help he move on with his life and reopen his heart. My only wish was that story would have been a little longer. I felt like the proposal came a little too quickly. I would have liked to see them spend more actual time together. Despite that, it's a cute addition to the series and worth reading!

Mrs. Farrand's Classroom: 2012
We had a great week before our official winter break!
In Math, we worked on solving different types of story problems called problems with unknown change. They are a little challenging, but the students were catching on well. We also learned a new game called Cover Up.
The students played with a partner and decided upon a certain number of chips to use. Next, they would hide some chips and their partner had to guess how many chips were hidden based on what they could see. It was a fun game!
In Social Studies, we learned about different holidays around the world. We read about several holidays and discussed which holidays we celebrate.
In Writing, we wrote a December Senses poem. We brainstormed the five senses and then the students used them to complete the poem. They were sent home in their backpack folders.
We had a great PJ day before vacation and did some fun holiday activities.
We also made a special gift for all of our parents! I hope you like it!
Have a wonderful holiday and vacation with your family!
Posted by Mrs. Farrand at 7:53 PM
The kids are definitely excited for upcoming events this month!
We had another great week of learning together.
In Math, we solved a lot of story problems for addition and subtraction. We learned to use tens and ones for adding and keeping the number whole for subtraction. They are really catching on quickly and they are able to solve problems faster, which is great!
In Science, we played Reptile Jeopardy to review for the test. It was the Snazzy Snapping Turtles against the Cool Crocodilians. It was a very close score and the students definitely studied. We took our reptile test on Wednesday and everyone did an excellent job.
This week we went to the computer lab and Mrs. Weldon taught us how to log in to the computers using a special id number and we also logged into our own gmail accounts. Then the students used Google Docs to type up a descriptive paragraph they each had written about me. Some were able to finish and bring the paragraph home today, but others still need to finish typing. Soon they’ll learn how to share their documents with me too!
It was nice to have them practice their typing skills and getting used to logging in to use the computers. Plus, they certainly knew a lot about me! J
Have a wonderful weekend! We might even see some snow!
Posted by Mrs. Farrand at 6:48 PM
What a nice way to start the week. I had a great time speaking with all of you about your child’s progress. They are all making very nice progress.
In Math, we learned a new game called Close to 20. The students had to lay out 5 cards from the deck and choose 3 cards that will get them the closest to 20. The player with the lowest score after 5 rounds wins. It was definitely the luck of the draw for some players. They had fun! We also solved number strings and took a short assessment that was sent home in their backpack folders today. We also practiced flash cards with near doubles. (ex: 5+4 or 9+8)
In Science, we learned fun facts about lizards. We also read about lizards and salamanders. We then compared lizards and salamanders using a Venn Diagram. We learned that there are no lizards living in Burlington.
We also learned about the 5 Burlington reptiles. They are the spotted turtle, snapping turtle, water snake, garter snake, and black racer snake. We made a mini book to help us remember. We also presented our reptile reports. All the students had really interesting facts to share with the class and did a great job on their presentations.
The students took home their reptile folders today and also the study guide for the reptile test next Wednesday. Please help your child study for the test.
In Writing, we practiced writing friendly letters to our parents. Look for your child’s letter in their backpack folder today.
We had a fun time with our 5th grade buddies today. Miss C read everyone a story and then they wrote an acrostic poem about December.
Also, if you would like to order any Scholastic Books, please order by December 14th.
Posted by Mrs. Farrand at 6:03 PM
We played a new game called Beat the Calculator to help solve number strings too. The students took turns being “The Brainiac” or “The Calculator Kid.” It was fun to see who could solve the problems first.
In Science, Miss P from the Science Center delivered a new, cute class pet. It is a 3 month old snapping turtle named Crush. We are so excited to have him in our class! We watched a video called All About Reptiles to see how many new facts we learned. We also learned about crocodilians. We read about alligators and crocodiles. Then we used the information to compare them using a Venn Diagram.
In Writing, we worked on descriptive paragraph writing. The students had to use senses to describe me and then they drew a picture. They did a nice job painting a picture for the reader. They certainly know a lot about me! We will type them up soon when we visit the computer lab.
Posted by Mrs. Farrand at 2:31 PM
You can send in money for your child to buy books.
The Book Fair will also be open during parent conferences on Monday, Dec. 3rd or you can order books online at scholastic.com/fair
You will click on Massachusetts, then Burlington, then Memorial Elementary School.

We had a short week, but it was fun filled!
In Math, we took an addition fact test. They only get 2 ½ minutes to solve 30 problems. The students are getting better, so I think the Xtra Math online is helping! We also worked to groups to show the area of different rectangles. They worked nicely together. We also learned about mirror symmetry. I read a book called Let’s Go Fly A Kite as an introduction to symmetry. Then we chose 4 objects to create that were all symmetrical. They will be bringing them home today.
In Science, we continued learning about reptiles. We focused on turtles this week by reading a turtle types poem. We also read about sea turtles and made a sea turtle life cycle. We even had a star reader read about a sea turtle’s journey.
In Writing, we worked on Leader/Follower ideas and wrote friendly letters to our parents about our week. We tried to use good details. I think they did a fabulous job! Look for the letters in their backpack folder today.
Posted by Mrs. Farrand at 11:30 AM
We had another great week of learning together!
In Math, we practiced building rectangles with tiles and we wrote rectangle riddles for other students to solve. It was fun to try and solve all the riddles! We also took some assessments about what is a rectangle is and how many faces are on a shape. We made rectangular prism boxes with a partner too! They used great teamwork!
In Science, we started a new unit on reptiles. They knew a lot of facts and were so excited to learn more, which is wonderful! We went over the special reptile characteristics and learned about the four main groups. The four groups are turtles, crocodilians, snakes, and lizards. We also made a cool folder and sorted reptiles into different categories. We read some cool books too!
In Writing, we worked on persuasive writing. We talked about our opinions and how we can try to convince someone else to think the way we do. Next, we chose a topic from a cup such as crayons or staplers. Then we wrote about how useful the objects are and why we are thankful for them. They all did a nice job with their ideas!
In Reading, my groups are wrapping up Mr. Putter and Tabby Pick the Pears and Henry and Mudge Under the Yellow Moon. We are working on sequencing a story and comparing and contrasting using a Venn diagram.
We also read books with our 5th grade buddies!
In the backpack folders today you will find the Parent Conference Confirmation paper. Please check over your day and time to make sure it still works for you.
Remember there will be no school Monday for Veteran’s Day and then the teachers will have Professional Development on Tuesday, so I will see the students on Wednesday.
I hope you have a wonderful, long weekend!
Posted by Mrs. Farrand at 12:36 PM
Well, we certainly had a wild week of weather! Here are some things we did in our short week.
In Math, we sorted quadrilaterals and discussed right angles. We also talked about how a shape is a rectangle if it has 4 straight sides and 4 right angles. Also, the students worked with a partner to sort rectangle shapes from biggest to smallest. They used tiles to find the area of each rectangle after they made predictions. They pretended the tiles were pieces of chocolate bars. The students discovered that the tiles helped us to know how to determine the biggest or smallest chocolate bar.
In Science, we wrapped up our science unit on trees and took our tree test. They did a great job. Thank you for helping your child study using the guide. We also did a cool museum walking tour in our classroom to examine and answer questions about our family trees. It was really fun! They posters were very creative!
On Wednesday, we had our vocabulary parade. We had so much fun parading around the school as verbs!
*Check the fun photos from this week’s activities.
Today we had a school assembly where the 5th graders gave us information about President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. Next, the students secretly voted and we will know who won the election on Monday. The results should be interesting.

We Love School Song
The students learned this song in September. I filmed them today.
They sang it from memory. I love it and hope you do too! I'm sorry the images of
them aren't clearer!

How do the weeks go by so quickly? I can’t believe October is nearing an end!
We had another wonderful week of learning together.
In Math, we continued in Unit 2 learning about shapes and geometry. We read The Greedy Triangle and learned about different 2-D shapes around us and how many sides and angles they have. We also did some fun 3-D shape activities using geo blocks to find the faces of 3-D shapes and we drew shape structures. We also did a fun activity using pattern blocks called Ways to Fill. *Check fun photos!
In Science, we learned about the special inside parts of a tree. We made a tree book to help us remember. We also read A Tree Is Nice and wrote 3 different reasons why trees are nice or important. We watched a short video about terrific trees and we even had one student dress up as a tree to help us review the parts. It was so fun! *Check fun photos!
*The tree test will be on Tuesday, October 30th. The study guide went home on Thursday. Please help your child study. The family tree project is also due Tuesday as well.
In Writing, we read a story by Donald Crews called Big Mama’s. It is about the author visiting his grandmother in the summer. Next, we wrote about places or people we like to visit in the summer too. They did a nice job!
In Fundations, we have started Unit 4, which teaches the students about plurals and suffixes. They are practicing and remembering the rules, which is awesome!
On Wednesday 10/31, we will have our vocabulary parade, which will begin at 8:45 a.m. Parents are welcome to come to school and cheer on your favorite verb word! Students can bring their costumes in a bag to school. Let me know if you have any questions!

October is one of my favorite months. I love to watch the changing colors of the leaves and the kids have been enjoying the mild weather.
In Math, we have finished Unit 1 and have started Unit 2 called Shapes, Blocks, and Symmetry. We began by working on fact families and how we can build addition and subtraction equations using just 3 numbers. We also started learning about 2-D shapes. We will look more at 2D and 3D shapes next week and as we continue in Unit 2.
In Science, we read about different kinds of trees around the world. We also made a cool pop-up paper and read information comparing deciduous and evergreen trees. It was fun! We also read a poem about the changing season of an apple tree. We will go over the special tree parts next week.
*Remember to help your child with their Family Tree Project due on Tuesday, October 30th.
In Writing, we learned about 4 different types of sentences. We talked about statements, questions, commands, and exclamatory sentences.
We watched a cool Brain Pop Jr. video to help us learn more too!
Today the students wrote narrative stories about their best friends. They had to include details about what their best friend looks like, what they like to do together, and why they are best friends. They also created a picture of their best friend. They did a great job.
In FUNdations, we finished Unit 3 on closed syllable exceptions and have started Unit 4 which reviews plural words and explains rules for when to use different suffix endings such as s, es, ing, ed, er, and est.
The class is doing a great job earning “spots” on their dogs in order to get rewarded for great behavior. We also are continuing to earn class compliments to earn another class reward when we reach 50! I’m so proud!
The kids were so excited to begin reading buddies. We met with our 5th grade reading buddies today. The 5th graders interviewed their buddy or buddies and then they read books together. *Check out the pictures of our new buddies in fun photos!
We had a shorter week, but we were still learning a lot!
In Math, we worked on story problems using TIPS. We learned about how to show our work using different strategies such as pictures, tally marks, the bumpy road, tens and ones, and keeping the number whole. They are doing a nice job.
We also read a story called Two of Everything. In the story, there is a magic pot that whatever gets put in, doubles. We wrote our own magic pot problems too! We also learned 2 new games to help with our doubles facts called Double It and Double Arrays.
In Fundations, we are learning and practicing closed syllable exceptions. We will continue to work on this next week too.
In Writing, we practiced writing stories. We also wrote a friendly letter to our parents about our week in school. They did a nice job.
*Look for your child's letter in the backpack folder.
In Social Studies, we learned about Christopher Columbus. We read about him, watched a short video, and learned a fun song.
In Science, we have started learning about trees. The two types we are learning about are deciduous and evergreen. I hope you saw the special notice about the family tree project. It is one of my favorite projects in second grade. They are due on October 30th.
*Also, we are participating in a school wide vocabulary parade on October 31st. Your child will be dressing up as a special verb word.
*Please look for the notice in your child’s backpack folder for more information. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Compliments Reward
Our class has been working hard at collecting compliments. We earned 25 baseballs. We took a vote and we decided to have a stuffed animal day tomorrow. The students can bring in a small stuffed animal to share. They are showing great teamwork! I am proud of them! :)
Posted by Mrs. Farrand at 3:45 PM
I sent home a special Family Tree project for our class today. Please check the green paper in your child's folder. I am attaching the letter below, as well as some picture examples of other family trees for ideas.
Creativity is encouraged! :)
Our study of trees will branch out into the realm of FAMILY TREES. Please help your child create a family tree of his or her own. We will also use this project to begin discussing different cultures found in our community and classroom.
*This project is due on Tuesday, October 30th.*
1. Make a tree on a piece of thin poster board or large sturdy paper. The poster or paper needs to be no larger than 16X20 inches. They will be displayed in the classroom and wall space is very limited. You can use any medium you would like. Suggestions: crayons, markers, paint, fabric, wallpaper etc.
2. Glue actual photos or create illustrations of family members to branches or leaves.
3. Write each person’s name below his or her picture.
4. Family members must include: your child, siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles. Cousins are optional.

Happy October! We had another great week of learning together.
In Math, we played More Than 2 to Make 10 with a partner. It was hard, but fun. We also practiced our math facts and learned about different addition and subtraction strategies to use when solving story problems. Also, we had another Pocket Day. It is always exciting to count all of our pockets! *Don't forget to have your child practice their math facts on Xtra Math.
In Science, we had a special visit from Mr. Muscleman from the Science Center. He taught our class about pumpkins, fire, and did a really cool experiment.
*See some pictures in the fun photos.
We also wrapped up our unit on amphibians by watching a movie and taking our test. All of the students did a wonderful job! Thank you for helping them study!
In Social Studies, we talked and read about “Classroom Manners” and how important they are at home and at school. The students are working hard earning class compliments as well. We have almost reached our goal of 25 baseballs. I am proud of their effort.
In Literacy, we began switching classrooms for Fundations and Reading. The students have been learning new routines and getting to know each other and their new teachers. It has been nice getting to know more second graders. We have been practicing our centers and learning about “Lucky Books.” My homeroom class also learned about different types of sentences and how to stretch a sentence to make it super.
I hope you all have a super long weekend. Remember there is no school on Monday 10/8 for Columbus Day.
Posted by Mrs. Farrand at 3:38 PM
It was so great to meet all of you last night. I had a nice time and I hope you did too!
We had another busy week. Here is a snapshot of what we did.
In Math, we learned two new tens games called Make Ten and Tens Go Fish. These games are meant to help the students with their tens combinations. This is something your child can play with you at home. Ask your child how to play. They liked playing!
In Literacy, we wrote verb poems that describe us. They used great details and are hanging above their lockers, so I hope you got a chance to see them. We also learned about awesome adjectives by doing a fun puzzle activity with a partner.
We completed Frog and Toad are Friends too. We listened to the author Arnold Lobel read the last three stories. The students worked on maps, designed bathing suits for Toad, wrote an ad to sell their special bathing suit, and we learned the 5 parts of a friendly letter. They wrote really sweet letters to me about how much they love second grade so far! They were very touching.
In Science, we continued to learn about amphibians. Miss P came in to review some facts and we watched our American Toads eat crickets with their sticky tongues. It was very cool! The students named our toads Tom and Jerry. *Check out the fun photos to see some shots of them.
We also learned about the life cycle of a frog and the 5 Burlington amphibians. We made a life cycle wheel and a little booklet.
*The students will be having their test next Wed. October 3rd. Please help them study their facts.
I hope you have an excellent weekend despite the rain. It is a great time to snuggle up with a blanket and a book. :)
Posted by Mrs. Farrand at 2:33 PM
We have had a great week! I can't believe how fast September is moving!
In Literacy, we have started reading Frog and Toad are Friends. We discussed what it means to be a good friend and we enjoyed reading "Spring" and "The Story" in the book so far. The students really enjoy them! We also have been learning about nouns and verbs. We used puzzles with a partner to find nouns and verbs. It was really fun!
In Math, we used magnifying glasses to examine real coins and talk about the values of each coin.
We learned how to play Collect 25 cents with a partner too. We also worked on counting by having "Pocket Day" and we wrote numbers on counting strips.
In Science, we have been continuing to learn about amphibians. We read about frogs and toads and did a fun Venn Diagram activity to compare them. We also received some special toads from the Science Center. It was very exciting!
In Social Studies, we learned about schools from the past in the United States and how they differ from the schools today. We even learned about how one school in South Korea uses a robot to teach students english. That was very interesting.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend and I look forward to meeting you all on Thursday night 9/27.
Mrs. Farrand :)

Four Days Flew By!
We have had a great start to the new school year!! All of the students are working so hard and I am really proud of their effort. We are learning and practicing the routines in the classroom. We also brainstormed our classroom rules and signed our names to agree to follow them.
I love reading stories and I am so happy that my students love listening to stories too! One of my favorite books is Odd Velvet. After reading, we had a terrific talk about what it means to treat other people and not judge them before truly getting to know them. We also discussed how we are each valuable, special, and unique. We drew pictures and used different adjectives to describe ourselves. Each child did a nice job!
Please look for your child's Backpack Folder today. All of the office documents along with some of our first week's papers can be found inside.
Please return the bright orange blog permission slip by Friday, September 14th.
I look forward to meeting many of you at our Open House in a few weeks. Until then, feel free to enter your email at the right of the blog for updates from our classroom blog sent directly to your email.

Jam away: High tea with the lads from Punjab
After lunch today me and neil went down to the beach for a bit of body boarding. Looked for our guy sheeba or sheevba or sheevbrah or she-ra or was it even (alan) shearer? Anyway it didnt matter cause he saw us coming up the beach and ran up to us shouting "Neil!, James!, my brothers!"
He's the guy we rent our boards from anyway, and he also keeps an eye on our stuff whilst we are in the sea. And he gives us pillows to rest our heads on. And he gives us an umbrella if we want shade. And he has invited us back to his mums house to sample her prawn curry.
Anyway after our first hour or so in the sea we decided to rest a bit in the sun and whilst there neil trotted off to by a t shirt and get us a couple of drinks. Meanwhile my rest on the beach was disturbed by the statement:
"Hey - you american?"
I turned to find my self laying right next to a group of about 7 blokes all chatting and laughing amoungst themselves. Most of them in shirts and trousers, but one or two also going for the simple white 'y' front combo with nothing else. Anyway I got chatting to this guy who'd asked me if I was american and after informing him I was english we got on pretty well! He was a funny guy and he told me they were all from the punjab which is up north india. He got the train for 52 hours to get to kovalum for a bit of a holiday.
He kept asking me:
"You like indian girl?"
"Umm well,"
Then, pointing at an indian girl RIGHT IN FRONT OF US
"You like her? She good or bad?"
And this conversation went back and forth until a guy came round selling tea. Now, here is a challenge, you try saying "No, I dont want a cup of tea" to a bunch of blokes from the punjab. I've discovered it is impossible, they simply failed to acknowledge the fact that I didnt want a cup of horrible looking tea from a stange bloke on the beach.
One cup of tea later, I said my thank yous and shook my hands goodbye and went back in the sea, hoping I wouldnt be made ill by the tea.
The waves were amazing today, massive. As the sun came down me and neil went to a bar that overlooks the beach and has views of a really nice sunset. We ate the best king prawn curry ever created and had a drink watching the sun go down - after which it was time to head off to work. If most days are going to be like this I really dont think we are going to mind working nights too much.
Picture credit of the above goes to neil this time, as usual click for an enlarged.
Hey, good blog, have bookmarked it...
Take a look at my thoughts and reflections at

9781402722608: Funny Cartooning for Kids - AbeBooks - Mike Artell: 1402722605
ISBN 13: 9781402722608
Other guides to cartooning only help kids draw—this one also shows them how to think funny! That’s because a good cartoon always makes the reader smile...and that requires a clever idea and an understanding of what elements make a picture witty. Cartoon master Mike Artell presents an entertaining lesson, with plenty of laugh-out-loud images to demonstrate his every point. As children try out a series of imaginative exercises, they’ll learn why exaggeration adds humor, why simplifying details makes a character “cartoony,” and why doing the opposite of what’s expected can be so effective, and why having animals do “human” things is so amusing. Best of all, there really are no hard and fast rules—so budding cartoonists can have fun getting creative.

Is this an impossible feat? by [deleted] in Fitness[–]fitnub 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children)It's probable that I was losing mostly fat / water weight and that my muscles were simply becoming more accustomed to / efficient at lifting more weight. But I'd also venture to say that it's not impossible for a non-beginner to gain muscle and lose fat simultaneously (body recomposition), though probably at a much slower rate than I've listed. Keep in mind, my diet probably went from something of a 30 fat / 60 carb / 10 protein to a 25 fat / 25 carb / 50 protein split in a matter of days. Also, since I started cooking for myself entirely once I got into school, almost all sodium in my diet went out the window, so that's an easy 2-5 lbs of water weight accounted for...
But at any rate, I wouldn't say that my results are normal at all. I've been lifting for 5-6 years (on and off) and was never close to the amount of fat loss / muscle gain as I've had in those 2 months right.
permalinksavecontextfull comments (6)give goldVeterans of Fitness, I'm trying to add muscle definition but lose a few pounds as well. Is this an impossible feat? by [deleted] in Fitness[–]fitnub 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children)Totally agree with diet adjustment. Most people don't realize that diet accounts for 80-90% of weight loss, not as much in exercises (unless you're a super-athlete). Generally speaking, the fastest way to lose weight is to put on some muscle (lifting heavy weight) while eating at a slight caloric deficit.
The general opinion is that it's "impossible" to both lose weight and gain muscle at the same time, but I'd argue that it's simply much more difficult to attain both goals at the same time. But for me, it seemed like a much more sustainable way to live - changing my lifestyle once rather than going through cycles of cutting, then gaining, then cutting, etc.
Also, don't worry about the myth that lifting heavy = bulky physique. That simply doesn't happen the same in females as in males. On the same note, heavy is also relative. A heavy dumbbell curl for the beginner may be 10 lbs, or 15 lbs. While to someone like me who's been lifting for awhile, its closer to 40 lbs. I'd say... starting out, focus on the major muscle groups (chest, back, legs, core) and go from there. Use a good combination workout to start off and slowly work your way up.
In terms of protein intake though, this highly varies per person. I eat anywhere between 0.5 g-1 g/lb LBM (lean body mass) and have been able to lose 15 lbs over 2 months (from 150 lbs to 135 lbs - male, 5"7') while also putting on muscle. The big thing I'd say to watch out for in terms of calorie counting is your macros. A lot of calorie counters either through online websites or cell phone apps have a split of fat/carb/protein intake. Personally, a 25/25/50 ratio worked for me to feel relatively full while being able to lose weight + gain muscle at the same time. Set a modest goal for yourself (maybe 0.5 lb per week lost) at first to acclimate yourself to a caloric deficit. As this becomes easier, you can increase your weight loss progress slowly to match your goals.
permalinksavecontextfull comments (6)give goldDo I really need 4000 calories per day? by keegstr in Fitness[–]fitnub 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children)How did you get your body fat measured? If it was by the electrode method, those are often times off so putting in your BF% from one of those calculations into a TDEE calculator will be drastically thrown off. Also, often times, the calculators aren't too specific about the different levels of activity, so what one person considers active may not be what's considered "active" by the TDEE calc.
That being said, you sound like you live a fairly active lifestyle (1.5 hrs of exercise a day is very good). It's definitely possible that you'll expend 3500-4000 calories on a heavy workout day. However, as stated previously, if you overestimate the amount of activity you have in any day or underestimate your BF%, this can drastically change the numbers.
But if all your calculations are correct and you're having trouble consuming so many calories per day, you can always buy bulking protein powders and drink those with whole fat milk. One of those shakes can easily pack on 1000-1200 calories in a relatively unfilling way.
permalinksavecontextfull comments (5)give goldBack, Shoulders, Chest, Arms, Legs, rest day, repeat. Is this workout schedule for the week okay? What's yours? by [deleted] in Fitness[–]fitnub 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children)Like some of the other comments, I think that chest and shoulders might benefit from being spaced out more. My personal workout routine is also isolations but goes in this pattern:
chest, back, shoulders, abs, arms, rest
every day or every other day is also supplemented with HIIT running or jogging since my knees can't really handle heavy lifts. Sometimes, I also switch around the abs and shoulders day if my shoulders are particularly sore from either chest or back day. I've found that this workout pattern has been most beneficial for me, but YMMV
permalinksavecontextfull comments (7)give goldWhat happens if you don't eat a lot when lifting? by kyle092 in Fitness[–]fitnub 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children)Well to be honest I went from 150 to 130ish. That's a 13% total body mass drop. In total, I probably lost more than 20 lbs in fat since I experienced muscle gains as well during this time. I read an interesting article awhile back stating that 1g protein / lb body mass isn't necessary, and I'd err on the side of agreeing. Possibly 1g protein / lb lean body mass is more in line with what's necessary to gain.

To be fair though, my core day is usually something like this:
2 exercises for lower back
1-2 exercises for obliques
finish off with 3 sets of plank (1:30 to 2:00 per set)
I find that it takes a bit more out of me and I'm able to get a more complete workout by doing more exercises, but if I'm trying to go for a really quick workout, plank it is!

permalinksavecontextfull comments (51)give goldWhy is building muscle / losing fat impossible at the same time? by fitnub in Fitness[–]fitnub[S] 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago (0 children)Well I've been working out for the better part of 5 years now but have jumped off the tracks for a bit. In the past couple months I significantly changed my diet to calorie restriction due to a lack of time to eat (eat big breakfast and dinner, no lunch). I was mainly posing this question because I seem to have gained meager amounts of muscle while losing significant amounts of weight. Started out at about 150 lbs, went down to nearly 130 lbs, 5'7" tall.
So I'm just wondering about the validity of this supposed "fact" of weight loss / muscle gain. I'm not sure if there's any health effects of losing weight quickly if already at a lean enough body composition (eyeball estimate of 10~12% body fat)
permalinksavecontextfull comments (262)give goldWhy is building muscle / losing fat impossible at the same time? by fitnub in Fitness[–]fitnub[S] 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (0 children)That makes sense but I'm just having a bit of trouble picturing why the body wouldn't be okay going into "debt," at least for short periods of time. I get that evolutionarily speaking, our bodies are meant to push for survival first, excess next. But in terms of short-term deficits would this still be the case?
permalinksavecontextfull comments (262)give goldWhy is building muscle / losing fat impossible at the same time? by fitnub in Fitness[–]fitnub[S] -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (0 children)I get that it's counter-intuitive, but wouldn't our bodies adjust to necessary circumstances? I mean back in caveman times I'm sure there were lots of instances where they'd have a (slight) lack of nutrients but would be necessary for survival to get stronger. Wouldn't our bodies be able to account for that circumstance? I'm not talking about a massive caloric deficit, just a slight one, or perhaps even calorie-neutral diet.
permalinksavecontextfull comments (262)give goldWhy is building muscle / losing fat impossible at the same time? by fitnub in Fitness[–]fitnub[S] 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children)Well that's exactly why I'm asking. Why can't you build muscle off of a net-negative cycle? Technically speaking, don't you just need energy to push weight / repair muscle? If you're able to get all that energy from existing fat stores to supplement what you aren't able to get from your diet, wouldn't that be sufficient?
