hello page project

Summary

I have been very motivated by the potential of the elanguages website and would like to try out this idea for a project. Since I have been using the site, I have become aware that there are a lot of people registered who have no profile. It is a shame when people ask to join your project but their hello page tells you nothing about them. I am a language teacher and also work with a team of practising teachers in Derbyshire who work with schools to support the primary languages initiative. I am encouraging the schools who are interested in using elanguages to use the ‘hello page’ as an opportunity to present their school and really showcase who they are. On my ‘hello page’ I have made some suggestions about involving the children in discussing what they would want to tell the world about their school. As a continuation of this idea and because I am a language teacher my idea is to create simple materials which can be used in language classes around the world and or to translate the text into as many languages as possible. (I would love volunteers from different countries to volunteer to translate the different sections of the website) The suggestions on my hello page are : Where my village/town is in my country Where my country is in the world Pictures of my village/town and the surrounding countryside Pictures of the school Description of the school Labelled plan of the school Our teachers Our names Our favourite subjects The school day in words or pictures Our work – poems, writing, pictures Outings and activities – photos, text A class area to showcase work / activities of each class A whole school celebration area to record highlights of the school year A diary with a memorable school experience for each month A forum – where you can talk to other schools and they can talk to you Sound recordings – favourite songs, I would be interested in people’s comments and suggestions for other things which they might be interested in showcasing. I will put a few project stages in to set the project going but perhaps people could join in the discussion and suggest stages which they would like to include. When you have created something for your ‘hello page’ which you are proud of and would like to share with other schools as a language learning resource, then you would upload it to the relevant section of the project. We would need to think carefully about language use and discuss this with the children, choosing useful vocabulary and perhaps repeating structures.

Links to our Hello Pages

A quick way to share the work we are doing when we have created some resources we would like to share.

This is a link to my personal hello page which I have used to encourage the schools I work with to create hello pages which include lots of variety and interest.

This is a space for Castleton school which is intended to bring together the various projects which they are working on.  Perhaps your school would like to do something similar and share it with the group?

Where is my school?

An area to help locate your school within your country and the world. It could be formatted as a presentation with simple captions.

Isabelle's School

Resources to showcase Brittany and the Ecole Jacques Brel.

This lovely powerpoint was created by Isabelle Haguet to introduce her school to our school in the spirit of the 'hello page project'.
Isabelle's school is in Brittany and the Internaute Magazine has wonderful photos of Brittany from the sky. (Link below)
I work in Derbyshire and there is a website which invites people who live in the Peak District to share their photos and favourite places. Hopefully it will give you a flavour of what this part of the world looks like.

My school

An area to describe the school. This could be useful for teaching vocabulary to do with the school buildings and rooms. It could include a labelled plan of the school or photos of the different areas with captions.

A powerpoint to teach vocabulary to do with school, in a cultural context.  The children have also recorded the text.

Also, the majority of states have passed automobile financial responsibility laws that require every driver to maintain sufficient funds to pay for damages caused to other drivers. Although some states allow drivers to QuotesChimp funds on deposit with the Department of Motor Vehicles to demonstrate financial responsibility, automobile insurance is a more cost-effective option for most drivers. Each year, more states pass laws that require insurance companies to report policy cancellations electronically to the Department of Insurance or the Department of Motor Vehicles. If the state receives notification that a driver's policy has been canceled, the state will require the driver to provide proof of a replacement automobile insurance policy to avoid driver's license suspension and possible fines and penalties.

I have uploaded many yutboue videos and I also have downloaded many yutboue videos. When I upload a video to yutboue, it's quality gets compressed. Even if you press the HQ button and view the video, it is not as much quality as my original file. So the same happens for all the uploaded video right? So, is there any way in which I can download other videos in original high quality?Thanks in advance.

Ici (de France) les quotas qui ont tant anime9 les de9bats ont eu un effet sur la repre9sentation puiotiqle des femmes, mais dans des proportions qui restent assez ridicules (faut dire qu'on part de loin hein..). Pire encore, les mesures (anti) sociales prises par le gouvernement de Sarkozy et la chambre e9lue de 2007 (la plus mixte de l'histoire de France) s'acharne e0 mettre e0 mal les droits des femmes, directement, en menae7ant le service droit des femmes, en donnant une voix nouvelle aux conservateurs anti avortement, anti adoption pour les LGBT et aux lobbys de pe8res qui de9crient si souvent les avance9s du fe9minisme.. En plus de e7a, ce gouvernement fe9minise9 s'attaque aux droits sociaux de l'ensemble des frane7ais-e-s, des e9tranger-es et c'est bien le0 le pire danger qui menace les femmes : fin de la se9curite9 sociale, de la protection des salari-e-s sur la marche9 du travail, du service public d'e9ducation et de la petite enfance, re9forme de l'alloc de parent isole9 . Et ce sont la grande majorite9 des femmes frane7aises et e9trange8res qui trinquent, qui rentrent au fourneau ou qui au contraire travaillent sans compter pour des salaires de mise8re Alors je me demande si quelques femmes de plus au parlement, e7a sert pas un peu de cache mise8re??? Plus encore, je me dis que cette question qui nous divise tant n'est peut-eatre pas parmi les prioritaires quand on admet ses effets limite9s (bien plus symboliques que puiotiqles).. Au fond, je ne suis ni pour ni contre, je ne me sens juste pas tellement concerne9e dans mon expe9rience de femme. Je n'en rajoute pas sur le profil sociologique des femmes qui acce8dent aux postes de responsabilite9 puiotiqle dans nos de9mocraties actuelles Enfin, et en fait, c'est la chose qui a re9ellement attire9 mon attention, je tombe de haut en lisant Dans la liste de ce club se9lect, des pays qui surprennent : la Bolivie, Haefti, le Bangladesh, la Guyanne, la Turquie, le Se9ne9gal… Et, sans faire de proce8s d'intention, il faudrait qu'on nous pre9cise en quoi il parait si surprenant qu'aux Sud, les droits des femmes (en particulier aux sortir des inde9pendances) sont bien plus avance9s qu'aux Nord Est-ce que richesse, occident, e9conomie de marche9, etc. rimerait plus logiquement avec e9galite9 homme-femme que les pays cite9s?Je suis surprise, un peu attriste9e aussi, de lire ici des propos d'un autre e2ge heu non d'un autre bord.

Constatant ce qui ce passe en France avec le gouvernement autecl, et e9galement au Que9bec, of9 Charest a forme9 le premier cabinet avec la parite9 hommes-femmes, je dois dire que cette repre9sentativite9 politique ne permet pas toujours de faire avancer les questions qui nous concernent. Bref, si le syste8me politique demeure le meame, que le copinage demeure la re8gle lorsque l'on cherche des appuis au sein d'un parti, si on ne change pas la fae7on de faire de la politique, on continuera e0 recre9er les meames ine9galite9s et exclusions.On doit pouvoir changer la fae7on de faire de la politique pour y attirer des femmes (et des hommes) qui auront une re9elle volonte9 de transformer le syste8me social autecl, et qui ne seront pas uniquement attire9es par la carrie8re politique . Le syste8me autecl oblige la formation de techniciens de la politique, c'est-e0-dire des hommes et des femmes qui aspirent e0 la carrie8re politique et qui y arrivent pas leur connaissance du des rouages de la me9canique politique. La majorite9 d'entre eux n'est malheureusement pas porteuse d'ide9es, de valeurs ni d'ide9aux en tant que tels, mais bien davantage de l'ide9e de laisser leur trace au sein du syste8me et des partis de9je0 en place.c0 cf4te9 de tous ces petits coqs de basse-cour qui oeuvrent en chambre, quelle place reste-t-il pour celles qui de9sirent re9ellement de9battre d'ide9es? Quelle place reste-t-il e0 la de9mocratie, si pour arriver au titre de de9pute9 on doive ne9cessairement se plier e0 ce jeu des partis, du copinage et de la partisanerie?Et quand l'autre pouvoir est entre les mains des Pe9ladeau et Desmarais de ce monde Vivement les blogs et l'Internet!

In case you possess an excellent driving report if QuotesChimp get a poor driving report, the mathematical likelihood of your being within an injury are greater than. Then, the nice motorist needs to spend less for policy contract. However, what differentiates an excellent from a poor motorist, particularly when you yourself have experienced no injuries within the last several years? The response is convictionsconvictions for shifting infractions, to be unique. Your driving report is evaluated continuously to determine whether you're charged of offences like drunken driving or of offences like racing or operating a red-light.

Yes, we can do international shipnipg. However, you will have to pay for the shipnipg costs, USPS, as well as any taxes/tariffs. Also, please do not request us to ship to your location if you know that paintball is illegal or there are any other issues.

While it's a good idea to pay all your bills in a timely mneanr, things like your insurance, rent, utilities, etc don't report timely payment to the credit bureaus and don't impact your credit score.

. HOWEVER, Woman B claimed she had never said atnhying to A about my wife spreading the rumors and that she was simply concerned about her. She was sorry, apologized, but understood if my wife didn't trust her as a friend. My wife was hurt, but choose to forgive woman B and move on and attempt to repair things with woman A.The next morning, woman B went to A and told her what my wife had done to her. Woman A was concerned about the accuracy of the information she was getting from B. Woman A asked her again if she was sure that what she had said at the party was true, including the party about my wife telling many different people and maliciously attempting to start the rumors. B said this was all true again, and that my wife was really upset with A and wanted to bring her down with what she said.A week later, my wife tried to talk to woman A to apologize for what was said. Woman A would not even look at my wife. She said she was done with her as a friend. She explained that woman B had come back to her to tell her she had been talking about her AGAIN, and she reiterated about the fact she had been spreading the rumors maliciously and my wife wanted to hurt woman A. None of this was true. Woman A called my wife a slew of fowl language in front of me, in front of dozens of her close friends and in front of many of my wife's friends. She stated that she was lying because woman B had said these things to her twice, and that she wouldn't lie.My wife is woman A's boss. Woman A is letting this effect her work. Woman A has cut off all communication with my wife outside of work. Woman B is now completely avoiding my wife entirely as well as woman B's husband, who is a close friend of mine.My wife forgave them both for what happened. Several weeks has passed. I have a hard time forgiving these people and wanted them to ever be back at our home. They were both very good friends of my wife's and now she feels alone and isolated because her two best friends destroyed their friendship. I even lost a close friend. The collateral damage goes very deep, since these were mutual friends of almost everyone we know.My wife wants me to move on, but I have such a hard time with that. My wife was trying to do the biblically accurate thing to hold a fellow sister in christ accountable and her other sister in christ; who was not a new christian, but a strong one, threw it in her face. She broke her trust not once, but twice.I just think she doesn't need to be friends with these people if this is how they treat their relationships. I don't feel comfortable having them around my home if this is what they choose to do.What do you think?

I had a rather hard time cohnsiog just one type of physician I would want to work for. So many of them fascinate me, and with me not really going into any medical field other than support, I never gave this any thought in the past. After reading the list, I am more favorable of working for a neonatologist. It is difficult to think about how neonatologist physicians sometimes have the most difficult job in the world, but I can only imagine how amazing it would be to be a part of saving a baby’s life. I had a coworker once whose baby was born at 36 weeks, and her baby had a lot of heart and lung problems. There were concerns about whether or not they would ever fully develop once she had him, but after many months in the NICU, and many scares that happened during it, the doctors were able to save him and he is now a very healthy 5 year old. It is because of that I have a higher interest in the neonatologist field.I hate to say which type of physician I would care less to work for, and it is because I worry that many will take it the wrong way. When I was 16, I used to help my mom at an assisted living home as a caregiver. We would get to work at 7:00 A.M. every morning to prepare breakfast for four of the elderly men and women that we were caring for. We would then make sure that all bedding was changed, rooms were cleaned, meals were prepared, and appointments were handled. We worked 12 hour days, and they were always grueling. The owner of the home made sure that everyone had their medicine and made it to their doctor appointments on time. However, she was more worried about getting paid for her services than actually helping the elderly. She would yell at them if they did something wrong, and even call them terrible names. My mom reported her and we both quit our job, but it has always left a sting in my heart since then. It is because of my experience with that situation that I do not think I could ever work for a gerontologist. I know that the situations would be much different, but ever since my experience with caring for elderly individuals it is very hard for me to think about assisting a physician in geriatrics because I worry that someone else might treat the elderly in the same way the owner of the home did. I am a firm believer that the elderly deserve the ultimate care and comfort when going through any treatment and aging in general, but I do not think I could ever work in that environment again. http://tbmbujwrpk.com [url=http://vegkwpwfntd.com]vegkwpwfntd[/url] [link=http://egmhfnobf.com]egmhfnobf[/link]

The specialist I would most like to work with is an Obstetrician. I have two chlrdien of my own and learned quickly that each birthing experience is unique and very different. I think it would be amazing to go to work every day, and never know what will happen. I also love babies! After I had my youngest child the doctor advised me not to have any more chlrdien so I feel like getting to go to work every day and see babies being born would be magical, but I would also get to go home and sleep peacefully! I am not sure how else to explain my wanting to work with an Obstetrician, but to say I have always thought it would be fascinating. Another specialist I would like to work with is Psychiatrist. I have a family history of mental illness and also addiction and have found all of my psychology classes intriguing. I am captivated by what goes into making each person who they are, and listening to every person’s story. I want to help people that are having struggles with their everyday lives find some kind of peace and happiness.I know we are supposed to pick one or two specialties we wouldn’t want to focus on, but I do not want to work under any surgical specialty. Blood does not make me squeamish but cutting into the body does not intrigue me. Cutting into another person’s skin is not on my list of top jobs I would like to do. I have great respect for neurosurgeons and cardiovascular surgeons, but it not something I want to help with. http://mnpcuhtgyfv.com [url=http://qpctzdg.com]qpctzdg[/url] [link=http://yfodpa.com]yfodpa[/link]
