Sequential spelling program12/14/2023 ![]() ![]() I say frightening because this lingering lack of mastery is often disheartening for many homeschooling parents who feel a responsibility to teach their kids to spell. But in spelling, translating the long e sound can be done using ‘ee’, ‘ea’, ‘e’, ‘e-consonant-e’, ‘ie’, ‘ei’, or ‘y’.Īnd for our kids with dyslexia who have difficulty remembering these patterns and rules, spelling can take a firghteningly long time to learn. For example in reading, just knowing that ‘ee’ says the long e sound is enough to decode a word. The strategies used to decode words are different than those used to encode words. Learning to read is much easier than learning to spell. I actually really like this and here is why. The only exception is the All About Reading curriculum which separates reading and spelling. ![]() Most dyslexia-friendly reading programs designed for use at home come with a spelling component as well. In my training to become a certified Orton-Gillingham dyslexia tutor, we were taught to teach our students to decode (read) and encode (spell) in a single session. ![]() This post will address both how to teach spelling and what to expect as you teach spelling to kids with dyslexia. I also get a lot of emails from parents concerned about their kids’ lack of spelling skills. I have written a lot about teaching reading to kids with dyslexia but not as much about spelling. ![]()

German adjective endings chart12/14/2023 ![]() ![]() Weak declension: German adjective endings after the definite article Let’s now talk in more detail about each type and see how they differ from each other. So, to sum up: to know which adjective endings to use, you need to look at the article that precedes it (if there is one). Mixed declension is used after the indefinite article (ein/eine/ein).Strong declension is used if the adjective does not follow an article.Weak declension is used if the adjective follows a definite article (der/die/das).Don’t worry these types aren’t difficult to tell apart. That’s because there are three types of declension. I’ve mentioned already that to master German adjective endings, you will need to memorize three simple tables. Only attributive adjectives that come before the noun do. Remember: Predicative adjectives (adjectives that come after the verb) do not take endings. That’s because they are positioned in front of the noun – and what these adjective endings do is indicate the gender ( der/die/das), number ( plural/singular), and case ( Nominative/Genitive/Dative/Accusative) of the noun they precede. When learning German adjective endings, you need to remember that only attributive adjectives take endings. ( Die schwarz e Katze lief über die Straße.) ![]() The other type of adjectives is attributive adjectives. These are adjectives that come after the noun (and even after the verb) in a sentence. ![]() In both languages, there are two ways adjectives do this – and it all comes down to where they are placed in a sentence. Well, let me explain! Not all adjectives need endingsĪdjectives have the same function in English as they do in German. You may now be wondering if they are always necessary and what they are for. These extra syllables at the end of words (-e, -en, -em, and more) are what we call adjective endings. Sometimes it will even be something like kaltem. Sometimes, it will say kalte instead of kalt. You know that cold is kalt in German, but you might’ve seen other forms of kalt floating around. If you’ve ever tried reading any German text, you’ve probably come across different forms of adjectives. ( Das Haus ist groß.)īig is the adjective here, and it describes both the noun in example 1 ( the house) and the pronoun in example 2 ( it). A couple of examples are words such as black ( schwarz), small ( klein), or fast ( schnell).Īdjectives can also be used to describe a pronoun. What are adjectives?Īdjectives, or Adjektive, are words that we use when we want to describe a noun. These are some of the basics that will make your life a lot easier. We’ll get to those in a minute.īut first, there are a couple of things you need to know. Once you know what’s going on, it’s really all about remembering three simple tables. Like I said, German adjective endings aren’t all that bad. ![]() I promise you’ll be able to master them in no time. Trust me: there is no reason to fear German adjective endings. Once you understand what’s going on, there’s only a little bit of memorization that you’ll have to do. And while it may all seem a bit intimidating at first, it isn’t all that bad. Or are they? In this post, we will go over the different types of adjective declension and try to make sense of it all. Everybody knows that German adjective endings are incredibly confusing and difficult to learn. ![]() Ezvid best car batteries12/14/2023 ![]() ![]() This allows the plates to be much thinner than average, meaning more can fit inside the battery. Inside an Odyssey battery is a series of flat plates made of pure lead instead of lead alloy. Although the spiral wound design that Optima uses is effective, Odyssey takes a different approach in how they construct their batteries. Odyssey batteries have an impressive spec sheet, which is why they make our list of the best car batteries (and our list of the best truck batteries). #3: Best Service Life: Odyssey Performance Specifications (Odyssey Performance Series ODP-AGM96R) Suited for late model vehicles with electronic-intensive features, like heated seats, navigation, advanced infotainment systems, and start-stop technology.Įvery DieHard battery comes with a three-year, free replacement warranty.Īutomoblog staff members have reported good luck with DieHard batteries over the years, especially on the farm. We traded that truck in 2008 for another Ranger, with that DieHard battery from the summer of 2003 still under the hood. We basically drove the wheels off that Ranger during that first winter and every season after that. We spent most of that winter tending to old fences, cleaning and replacing parts on the equipment, and making a space in the Morton Building for our incoming shipment of Renze Hybrids. At the time, we were working on a farm in Monona County near Onawa, Iowa. ![]() One day there would be record-high temperatures in the 60s, followed by below-zero wind chills. While it was cold that winter (like all Iowa winters), there were also some crazy temperature swings. We changed the oil, flushed the coolant, replaced the tires, and swapped out the factory battery for a DieHard one. Since the mileage was higher than average, we did some work on it that fall, anticipating a rough winter ahead in Sioux City, Iowa, where we were living at the time. We ran a DieHard battery in our first compact truck, a higher mileage 2001 Ford Ranger with a 4.0 SOHC V6 we bought in the summer of 2003. However, our recommendation for DieHard as one of the best car batteries comes mainly from personal experience. Like the Optima RedTop, we trust DieHard batteries because of the brand’s longevity and continually high customer reviews. ![]() #2: Best Runner Up: DieHard Platinum AGM Specifications (DieHard Platinum AGM Group Size 35) With its Spiral Cell design, the RedTop provides a steady power source for your vehicle in all weather conditions.Įvery RedTop battery comes with a three-year, free replacement warranty. The Optima RedTop fits all late-model sedans, crossovers, SUVs, and trucks. The RedTop is built like a brick house, so the durability is there for rugged terrain. The benefits include a spill-proof, maintenance-free battery with better vibration resistance and higher reserve capacity.Īlthough more than ideal for a standard sedan or crossover, the Optima RedTop is also great if you drive something like a Jeep. Each of these spiral cells looks like a jelly roll when finished. In so many words, it’s a series of individual spiral-wound cells composed of two pure (99.99%) lead plates coated in lead oxide. Optima Batteries are known for their “Spiral Cell” design. Optima has been selling batteries for 40 years, which makes us more comfortable spending money on something like the RedTop. One thing we look for, especially with essential maintenance items like tires, brakes, belts, and batteries, is the longevity of a particular brand. Leading our list of best car batteries is the Optima RedTop because of its reputation for quality and durability. Behind jasper johns exhibition mind12/14/2023 ![]() Johns's principal foray into sculpture coincided with his exploration of painting as object. "The encaustic paintings were done in gray because to me this suggested a different kind of literal quality that was unmoved and unmovable by coloration and thus avoided all of the emotional and dramatic quality of color." SCULPTURE "I used gray encaustic to avoid the color situation," he stated. The choice of gray advanced the cause of literalism (the exploration of paint and canvas themselves as objects) most explicitly because it avoided the distraction of emotion suggested by color. ![]() With their restrained facture and emphasis on commonplace subjects, these works offered an alternative to the visual and critical rhetoric of Abstract Expressionism, the dominant mode of painting in the 1950s. In these canvases, the artist used gray to establish uniformity between flat surfaces and dimensional objects, whether real or implied, using everyday items such as a stretched canvas, a drawer, a ball, a newspaper, and a coat hanger. Once the canvas can be taken to have any kind of spatial meaning, then the object can be taken to have that meaning within the canvas." In 1965, the artist stated: "The canvas is object, the paint is object, and object is object. OBJECTSĪ group of early gray encaustics (produced with wax-based paint that forms a skin when dry) created from 1956 to 1959, emphasizes the idea of painting as object. For Johns, the refusal of color is its own affirmative category. If False Start succeeds in divorcing gesture, color, and emotionalism, Jubilee underscores the differences between thinking in color and thinking without color. But the more sedate Jubilee is not merely a version of the former it is an elaboration on its theme. Superficially, Jubilee is simply a grisaille copy of False Start. Immediately following False Start Johns made a closely related painting in black, white, and gray titled Jubilee. ![]() By embracing this self-conscious, painterly mode of application and simultaneously setting color at odds with language, False Start dismantles the expressive use of gesture and color and creates discordance between what one perceives and reads. The words, which are not intended to match the colors but in some cases do, have been stenciled on the canvas. The first use of the word "gray" in a work by Jasper Johns occurs in the oil painting False Start, in which it appears three times, surrounded by other words naming (but not labeling) colors. Jasper Johns: Gray addresses the practice of creating abstract and representational images imbued with the formal and conceptual associations of a single color. Gray exists in Johns's work not just as color, but also as idea and material. Initially serving as a means of emphasizing the physical properties of an object by draining it of color, the artist's employment of gray has evolved into a larger concern, an examination of the condition of gray itself. The color gray–ranging from warm to cool, light to dark, stringent to lush–has been a singular and unparalleled preoccupation for the artist. Yet single-color experimentations have figured prominently in his work since 1955. One of the most acclaimed and influential American artists of the 20th century, Jasper Johns is rarely considered in relation to monochromatic art. ![]() Stukenberg / Professional Graphics Inc., Rockford, Illinois.

The ultimate bite - after he’d lost smaller chunks of his freedom for petty crimes such as swiping three pairs of Nikes from a Mervyn’s department store in 1998 - was the 20 months he served for robbing a convenience store, using a bottle to threaten the clerk. It comes back to bite you, and steals away from doing anything positive.” You try to do all these positive things, and then behind the curtains, do some dirt. I still wanted to hang out in the projects, doing negative stuff.

Soon, articles were being written about Chaka’s reformation, how he was using his talent to decorate church buses and create murals aimed at inspiring disadvantaged kids. He reached out to street ministers for help and was steered to a religiously grounded residential treatment program in Lancaster. Having graduated to harder drugs, including PCP, Ramos seemingly hit bottom in 1993. Ramos says that absence remains “an unhealed wound.” He also got a 14-year-old girlfriend pregnant and hasn’t seen his son since infancy. ![]() Instead, he returned to jail in 1992 on a marijuana possession charge. Cal State Northridge was eager to have him enroll as an art major. The sadder truth resides in numerous old news stories: After his initial 1991 sentencing to three years’ probation and 1,560 hours of graffiti cleanup duty, opportunities were dangled, including designing T-shirts, inclusion in a gallery exhibition of graffiti art, maybe even a feature film or television documentary about his life.
