...Abstract Teachers’ responsibilities to their students not only include teaching them, but also giving them an environment that they can learn in. Edward is a student who is having trouble completing his work. This paper’s purpose is to identify what is exactly distracting him and how we can help him focus on completing his work through effective room arrangement. Minimizing Distractions Edward is a little over eight years old, is in the third grade, and continually has trouble keeping focus on his work. This leads him to being unable to complete his work and can be caused by three possible distractions. The Iris Center Star Sheet says, “Items (windows, doors, aquariums, etc.), equipment (computer, overhead projectors, etc.), and individuals (reading groups, adjacent peers, etc.) can be distracting (Evertson, Emmer, & Worsham, 2003)” (Evertson & Poole, n.d.). The first distraction that Edward encounters is the window. With many different grades and classes, in addition to weather changes, Edward can easily be distracted seeing a gym class outside the window or younger students having their recess at the time. An easy way to solve this distraction is to get blinds for the windows (unless they already have some) and pull it over so he cannot see the other students outside. With Edward in his current position, the second distraction he is facing would be the computer. He could easily get distracted if the teacher is using the computer to input grades, or another student...

...Patrick Norris AP Euro Mr. Hellstern 11/3/15 The Boy King Edward VI was much more influential and strong than many historians have depicted him. His influence has often been overlooked due to his presumed illness and youth. He has been depicted as an insignificant monarch, failing to compare to the rest of his family. Edward showed involvement in religious developments during his reign, and that in some cases, the developments were only possible due to the influence of Edward. Edward, despite his age, shows that he has to intelligence to become a great king. From an early age Edward shows tremendous understanding of the complex issues of England, especially those regarding religion. This can be attributed to the top-quality education he received. Starting from the age of six he was humanistically...

...half-sisters. Mr. John Dashwood initially intends to keep his promise and treat his female relatives generously, but his wife Fanny, a narrow-minded and selfish woman, convinces him to leave them only five hundred pounds apiece.

...Jonathan Edwards’ Theology One cannot study church history without looking at the key figure, Jonathan Edwards. One very significant aspect of Edwards was his theology. This is beneficial for us to study for a few reasons. The first being Jonathan Edwards’ view of his own sin, second, Edwards’ example of preaching both God’s wrath and love, and finally, Edwards’ held to a healthy balance of Calvinistic theology. Edwards was very aware of his own sin. He is quoted saying, "I know not how to express better what my sins appears to me to be than heaping infinite upon infinite." This theological view helped him to see Christ more precious to him. Today we could benefit from this especially in a society that minimizes sin. Edwards is most known for preaching the wrath of God in his sermon, “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” but he also preached the equally the love for God in sermons like, “Charity and its Fruits”. We should also preach all the attributes of God today so our people have a full view of Him. Edwards also held to a strict reformed, puritan, Calvinistic theology, but at the same time, he called people to repent. Edwards also had a heart for the lost and for missions, especially to the Indians. He did not take the dangerous view of, “when God is pleased to convert the heathen world; He will do it without your help or mine.” We should study Edwards’ theology to see how one can have a balanced view of God’s sovereignty and man’s...

...who falls in love with a vampire, Edward Cullen. The story Twilight has many themes, however the most prominent are love, choice, and sacrifice. Twilight is a story of forbidden love. As quoted in the book “And so the lion fell in love with the lamb” as we have famously read. That is because Bella is a human and Edward a vampire. Bella is Edward’s prey. They both know being together is dangerous, but their feelings are so intense they feel they have no choice but to be together. Although Edward can’t give Bella a normal human life, he can make her happy despite all the challenges that they face. Bella said about Edward: “About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him-and I didn’t know how potent that part might be-that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.” Bella's thoughts show how strongly she feels about Edward....

...Jonathan Edward was a writer of one of the most famous sermons in American history. They way that it seems for him to be persuading his settlers in a very amart devoting way. Edward starts off saying "Their foot shall slide in due time" (Deuterunumy 32:35- pg.1 bible verse) Just with that it is as if he began to say people are walking in to thier sins. As if he goes on saying their sins are as slippery for them to fall into. Edward was so descriptive but quite, brief within his sermon. He spoke in the matter of trying to make a person guilty as due to their sins. He persuades people into saying deep words and describing in such a tone, it is as if you read his anger. Edward says "deserve" (pg.1 Edward) to go where god puts them, he argues into saying god does things to those who deserve what is happening to them. Edwards word seem senceless but yet hurting from his point it is as if he is angry but lost withing what he believes and wants to believe. he goes on and on with saying what sins, god, and religion as example of bad which are not everyone without thinking it or doing commit sins. Being capable to write to persuade aint hard when it has to do with good deeds but when itsbad that then can harm and that's when things are lost within....

...MARY E. WALKER By: Rebecca Leadership March 2, 2013 I chose Mary Edwards Walker as my leader for this final project. I have always enjoyed reading a little bit of military history and I always look for stories about people who have gone above and beyond the call of duty or went against the grain. In my opinion, she really set the bar high for other women to follow, and I find her to be an exemplary leader and role model for other women in the business world. Mary Walker was born on November 26, 1832 in Oswego, New York (Unknown, Women in History ). She can accredit her leadership style and personality to her father, Alvah. Her father was a farmer, abolitionist, and a self-taught doctor. During this time, most women did not attend school or work outside the home, but because Mary’s father believed that women should be well educated, he built the first schoolhouse in Oswego on their land known as the Bunker Hill Farm (Unknown, Women in History ). In addition, this farm served as a “station” in the Underground Railroad system that assisted southern slaves to freedom—mainly from western New York into Canada (D. L. Walker 29-30) . Alvah also believed that women’s clothing was too tight and because his daughters had to help on the farm, he prohibited them from wearing the traditional clothing and corsets (Unknown, Women in History ). When Mary turned 18, she spent two years at the Falley Seminary where she was taught Mathematics, Philosophy, Grammar, and...

...Rhetorical Analysis of Sinners in the hands of an angry God Preacher, Jonathan Edwards author of Sinners in the hands of an angry God (1741) reveals that God is approaching mercy on people who sin. He’s trying to convince Puritan congregation that if you sin you will be damned to hell. Edwards develops this claim by clarifying that if the people in this congregation do not follow God’s will they will result in death by being sent to hell. His purpose is to convince Puritans that God is wrathful God and to also warn the people of the dangers of damnation. He uses structure, pathos and imagery to satisfy the reader that the people who are unrepentant may reject God. Edwards perspective of sin is like a force in a world that is dictated by the devil....

...How far do you agree that it was Edward IV’s financial management which was the key to his successful consolidation of power in the years 1471-1483? It is clear that Edward IV’s financial management was a prominent factor in allowing him to obtain power during his reign. However, there are also other factors that acted as root causes in gaining him power. Examples include: restoration of good government and his search for dynastic security. On the one hand, it is evident that Edward IV consolidated his power during his reign successfully due to finance. Edward was responsible for increasing his income from royal estates by bringing in innovations when it came to land management. Examples included, appointing surveyors, auditors and receivers to replace the land management roles that belonged to the exchequer. He enabled the country to come out of a £300,000 inherited debt and reduce the amount of resentment civilians had towards the strength of the monarchy. This strengthened Edward’s position as he did not request funds from Parliament or imposing heavy taxes on places such as Wales and the North East where people resented him mostly. On the other hand, it can be argued that finance wasn’t the primary factor in consolidating his success. In fact, when Edward IV died, he left only £1200 in the treasury. In addition to this, he gave away lots of money for the expensive war in Scotland as well as giving excessive amounts of land away. The lands he inherited as Duke of York and...
