Education & Reference - 22 August 2007

The first 6 people to post ONE phrase that they would like to have listed, will have their phrase listed. ( IT MUST BEGIN WITH THE LETTER ► "H" ◄)
So instead of me making up the phrases.....YOU have a hand in it!!!!
Confused??? You'll see...... It's really quite simple....
After I see the first 6 phrases, I will LIST THEM IN THE ADDED DETAILS....THEN,GO BACK TO MY QUESTION , LOOK AT THE PHRASES AND WRITE A LITTLE STORY THAT MUST INCLUDE THOSE 6 PHRASES.
P.S. I WILL NOT ACCEPT BATHROOM HUMOR OR PROFANITY.
If you are not one of the first 6 responders, you are still invited to write a story and compete. ◄◄ Good luck and have FUN~~~~~~~~~

My daughter is in 6th grade. Today in her social studies class, the teacher was discussing the topic "fjords". A student pronounced it "fuh-jord" with a hard J sound, and she agreed and repeated it, saying this was correct. My daughter knew it was not correct, but said nothing. This is sadly far from the first time that we have had to deal with incorrect information coming directly from a teacher in more than one school district. Would you correct this and if so, how?

I don't know if your school does this, but each year in the yearbook there is a special senior section where all the seniors send in their baby pictures and a significant quote...I need some help with choosing a quote, so which quote do you like the best?

You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
Mahatma Ghandi

When one door closes another opens. But often we look so long so regretfully upon the closed door that we fail to see the one that has opened for us.

I'm a college sophomore at a university in Southern Louisiana, and basically I'm miserable. I've grown up here, a lot of my friends are here, but I want to go elsewhere. I want to move on...soon. My university has been knowingly getting worse due to budget cuts since Katrina, and I've essentially matured much faster than my school can keep up with. Many things are trivial and uninspired and it's wearing me out. I'm willing to pay out of state tuition for a couple years to finish my degree at a better college in a better place. I want to go somewhere liberal. Help me out on this one...thanks.

I am a freshman in college and I have A LOT to read everyday. I read the chapters in my textbooks, but it is hard for me to remember what I have read the next day. I have tried taking notes while I read, but i just end up basically copying what is already written in the textbook, and I still can't get the information to stick. It is very important that I remember what i read everyday. Does anyone have any advice as to how I can get all the information that I have read to stay with me for the long haul?

I am very much involved within the special education community. One of my friends had a question for me, and I thought I'd present it here for a broader answer. His daughter wanted to ask someone using a wheelchair to dance, but wasn't sure how that works...I've heard of holding hands and just kinda swaying. I've also seen young men who use a wheelchair have the lady sit in his lap...anybody have any other expierences with this? Ideas? Female and male perspectives both appriciated here...
