Section 2: Lesson Introduction Description of the lesson: Today we are going to be focusing on the correct way in handling a volley ball and can be fun once the skills are known. They consist of bumping, serving, spiking, setting, and blocking, and digging. We will learn how to form our hands, how to pass to your opponents. Task #1 The rules and techniques of volley ball are: 1. Bumping-make a fist with one hand and wrap your other hand around the fist, do not cross your thumbs or interlock your fingers. 2. Serving-there is an overhand and underhand, underhand is easiest, hold the ball out in front of you. With your other hand you swing back and bring it back forward and hit the ball, get low when u serve and raise as the ball exits your grip. 3. Spiking-there is a simple rule. on a serve you cannot spike it over...if someone bumps and sets it to you THEN you can spike...there is an approach...take two giants steps two small steps then feet together and jump hitting the ball on an angle. 4. Setting-you almost make claws with your hands and you make sure the ball is above your head and you press it out with your fingertips. 5.

...Jenifer Sparke WOST W210-08 DRAFT WITH OUTLINE Working Women As children we are brought up to have the future in mind. What we will have as fully functioning, working adults in society, what we will do as those working adults, and who we will have next to us on our journey. Children of both genders say firefighters, policemen, doctors, actors, astronauts, president, jobs that are glorified to be fun, exciting, difficult, and high paying. As children grow they start to realize that there are walls blocking them from their younger dreams. Boys are told they can do anything they set their mind to, girls are too but they are also told they must be married, have a family, and make a home among many other things that are considered womanly. This is where young girls meet the first glass ceiling when fathers, mothers, peers, and schools tell them their place is in the home and not in the workforce. A glass ceiling is defined in Merriam-Webster as “an unfair system or set of attitudes that prevents some people (such as women or people of a certain race) from getting the most powerful jobs.” The first glass ceiling women break through is the cultural norms ceiling. This ceiling says that a woman’s work is in the home and supporting a family. When women were needed in the workforce in the early 1940s this ceiling was shattered. Women took factory jobs, they were wielding and making supplies for the war, they were truck drivers, served as radio operators, each military branch started...

...When in Finland for my internship, walking to a local board game night made me feel at home instantaneously. To expand the community and share the excitement, I have introduced games to the elementary-level classes I support at the Finnish School of New England. I have also founded two tabletop game clubs at my high school. Orchestrating, managing, and coaching the 20-person teams have been demanding, but igniting and nurturing new boardgamers’ enthusiasm has been rewarding and well worth it. Over the years, I have developed six tabletop games for fun. Thinking rose-colored, I have wanted to create a perfect game if one does not yet exist. My current idea is an anti-monopoly about governing the world with increasing income disparity. I am studying recent game launches for their viral themes. Perhaps my tabletop game with a social message can be commercial successes,...

...to the point they want to take measures into their own hands. Teachers and staff at school whom children should be able to go through for help is also bullying, sadly these people know they can get away with it so they aren’t stopping the violence before it’s too late, therefore kids are taking actions into their own hand and causing violence by shooting innocent students and staff just to try and get their points across. Bullying statistics: (www.pascack.k12.nj.us/bullyingstatistics.htm) 46% of males and 26% of females reported they had been in physical fights. When children are bullied at school they generally use violence as the retaliation because they know that is going to be one thing that they are in control over rather than just trying to get the bullies to stop what they are doing when the child goes to the adult they are usually told “we will keep an eye on the situation”. Bullying isn’t just stopping with kids it is also happening with adults, and what I mean by this is when children go to the adults because they are being bullied they are expecting the adult to take charge and take action about the situation that is at hand, however in many more cases the teacher, parents, or staff member is getting together with the other bullying child’s parents and wanting to take action, however when the kids find out what happened then the bullying does go farther and the child is made fun of even more. There were over 20 reported deaths between the year 2005-2006 of not only...

...homework. Homework for me is not a big problem, but the most important reason is the day to hand in homework will be blocking my review of progress. Plus I have listened to some of the completion of this subject students said that this subject is a waste of time, which makes me more confuse for this subject. However, I found my misunderstanding on my mind for this subject, on the first day of class. This three-week class, I have learnt Occupational Wellness, Intellectual Wellness, these two issues so that I know better how to find my own goals and discover the how intellectual well of me. On occupational wellness, I began to focus my future work direction. I should have my interests and dreams as to continue to make efforts to be able to become work? Or follow the social requirements, mediocre and vulgar to do a job? I believe that students almost my age are also facing this problem. I grew to love music, and I have been studying the guitar at secondary school. High school, I formed the band with friends around performance. In this period, my state of mind wants to be my future work as a music creation. On the way I won the high and low tide, but I did not give up. However, my academic results year after year poor, even to F.5, dropped out of school out to work. But then I found I was just the unexamined life and just even work to lose myself, only looking for fun everyday. Fortunately I could go back in a timely manner, return to the search for the ideal road to....

...Windshield Survey Summary and Reflection D.G. University Of Phoenix Nursing 405 E. June 1, 2014 Windshield Survey Summary and Reflection The windshield survey is a proficient tool in learning about the community. The survey is an excellent tool to gain knowledge of the health needs. It provides an understanding of the people as a whole, and if there are available resources. The survey shows the diversity and vulnerability in the community. A community is an area where a diverse group of people lives and come together. The community is a great place to socialize and help one another. Residents work and interact together in the community. Community health provides education and resources for the health needs of the community. Community health determines the health issues of the community and the best ways to prevent or manage those health issues. When the community becomes the client, the nurse is no longer focusing on an individual and their personal health needs. Instead, the focus is on the health needs of the entire community. Nursing is slowly shifting back to community health care. The public health nurse is able to assist the community in improving their health when they partner together. The “community partnership is a basic focus of such population-centered approaches as Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships” (Stanhope and Lancaster, 2012, p. 402). The participating family lives at the end of a cul-de-sac with the woods directly...

...Billy Joe Half a Life Human relations 1. In my opinion of why the book is named half a life is because half Darin’s life ago the event with the car crash happened. In the book close to the end when he is presently weighting the book he says that the event happen half a life ago. He sounds like that at the end he is starting to heal mentally. So half of his life was spent in a mental punishment and torment. Half his life is over now and he is better. He has a wife and a kid, he has a good job, and his life is improving. The pain he had to go though was probably tuff, and I am glad I do not have to go through that myself. A weak willed person would have not been able to make it through this tuff challenge in life. A weak willed person might have died as well as the victim of the accident. Darin had to be a strong willed man to be able to make it through this tuff trial in this life, but he made it through and has a lot to show for it. Billy Joe Half a Life Human relations 2. I think that he calls his emotional reactions plagiarized because he was doing what he thought anyone would do in the situation. He pulled over and parked the car and he got out to see if she was ok and to get help. Strauss thought that he should act a certain way when the help were trying to save her. He felt like that is was not actually happing to him like it was someone else’s story. When his dad showed up that’s when he realized that it was happing in his life. At first he...

...negatives to this lifestyle and they change as schedules and activities change. With a bit of flexibility and open thinking, this can be advantageous while teaching many lessons to children and parents alike. A majority of parents work outside of the home to maintain financial stability. As children enter daycare and school, a routine is more easily established. Child care is an extremely costly, ongoing expense. Is care before and after school required? Backup plans for time missed from work must be made for those times that daycare or school is closed or your child is ill and cannot attend. In a traditional, 40-hour, five-day workweek, it may be very difficult to attend school day and afterschool events, especially if they are “away” events. You may have to deal with hurt feelings when you can’t juggle your schedule to attend every event. If your child does participate in these activities, consideration must be given to what types of supplies and equipment is required in addition to the additional costs associated with the activity. Another consideration is how to provide a quick, nutritious, inexpensive dinner on the evenings the event takes place and blocking time for homework. Many professions provide flexible hours and telecommuting options which satisfy the work-life balance needed in these situations. Some fields such as manufacturing and medicine have three standard shifts. This can cause an entirely different set of challenges and opportunities for families. Children...

...technologies are invented is to help make people’s life easier and to improve their way of life, especially the students. Modern computer technologies make studying easier and fun to students (Chau & Hu, 2001). Schools of all levels are beginning to adapt to the many new kinds of technology and software that is becoming available. Classrooms from Kindergarten through college are using technological tools to involve students in learning more and understanding (Chau & Hu, 2001). Some of these tools are basic computers programs of typing a book report, math problems, or testing in spelling. Many schools have several programs available to them for testing children in their classrooms now to see what they need to work on. This saves time for the teacher and also money for the schools; for they do not have to hire someone else to give these tests. Some of the advantages of technology are schools are being able to converse with classrooms from other countries. A teacher in India was able to have her class do a live debate with a class in Australia on racism (Chau & Hu, 2001). By using Skype; which is like a live video feed through the internet, this was achieved. Kids were able to hear the opinions of their peers in another country that they might have never been able to do without technology in their school.

...In my senior year in high school I was told several stories about a certain family member of mine and how he was a firefighter. Neleigh Parks (my Great-Grandfather), a man I looked up to, was a volunteer firefighter. So that inspired me to become one. One day out of the blue I decided to approach my mother about it. She was very supportive of my decision to become a firefighter. It took a couple of months for me to gain the courage to actually go to the firehouse and talk to the people. I was curius to find out what it took to become one. After finding out such requirements I decided to persue it. So many people were proud of my decision to join. Most importantly proud of myself. Every third monday the fire department would have business meetings. These meetings a firehouse would vote on budgets, agendas, etc. Here they would also vote on prospects for the department. October of the year of 2009 was that fateful night. I was on the dockett for the membership board to vote on prospects. The whole night the probationarys and myself were stuck cleaning the engine bay. This involved sweeping, mopping, and surface cleaning. Two hours later every voting member came out. Shaking in nervousness and excitement I was waiting for an answer back. The chief of the department came out and approached me and gave me my verdict. "Congratulations probie" the chief said. In total shock I lit up a cigarette and said thank you to every voting member. With the meeting over and done with I walked...

...making fun of them. For many, bullying happened at school, but it can happen anytime in one's life. Many positive changes have affected our lives thanks to the information and technology explosion. However, there have been some negative consequences of the rapid expansion of the Internet and communication technology. One of those alarming issues is a new form of bullying called cyber bullying. Like bullying, many people feel that cyber bullying is not a big deal. This can occur through social networking sites like MySpace, Twitter, and Facebook, cell phone pictures and text messages, blog posts, or e-mails. Many feel that it is a normal part of life that people just need to deal with the best that they can. However, cyber bullying is something that should concern everyone. Cyber bullies use ruthless tactics and cyber bullying should be considered a crime because it is a form of harassment that causes victims to suffer feelings of depression, isolation, low self-esteem, humiliation, anxiety, and thoughts of suicide. Cyber bullying is very harmful. Phoebe Prince was your average 15 year old—attending high school, worrying about boys, clothes, and most importantly, fitting into her new high school.

Going so far as to call her an "Irish slut," these girls constantly belittled Ms. Prince in the school hallways...
