To me a good student is not always the student that gets an A. Some students can get an A without even trying and they will take any path they need to, to get that A. Then there are those students that work their little hearts out and get a B or even sometimes a C and they are much better students that the A student talked about above. A student is someone that wants to learn and study to make himself better. ezedplays@cableone.net (Caroline Mackay) Wed, 22 Aug 2007 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.articleworld.net/articles/9197/1/Grade-10-Applied-English-Homework-Help This article talks about the difficulties of 10th grade english homework, and some tips to make it go by more smoothly. articlewriter.andrew@gmail.com (Scott Palat) Sat, 10 Jun 2006 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.articleworld.net/articles/6932/1/Kids%26%2339%3B-Activities%3A-The-Magic-Bag-Is-A-Great-Way-to-Introduce-Kids-To-Fossils The Magic bag is a great kids' activity for introducing fossils.

Personally, I disagree with the many teachers today who are pushing the notion that in order to teach multiculturalism in school curriculum, teachers must actually move away from the traditional curriculum. awaxler@tampabay.rr.com (Adam Waxler) Sun, 11 Dec 2005 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.articleworld.net/articles/3390/1/The-Value-of-a-Science-Fair-Project With the jam-packed schedules of today's families, why would either a student or a parent want to add one more major activity? Clearly, any school project assigned to a student should meet a stringent test for usefulness. Surprising to some, a science fair project is one of the best learning experiences a student can undertake. And, if it is taken seriously, it can be an excellent way to earn significant prizes, qualify for scholarships, and distinguish a college application. articles@sciencebuddies.org (Kenneth L.

If you really don't know much about it, don't pass those feelings on to your children. It's not too late for you either. What you may have thought of as boring and a waste of time when you were in school, might be the very thing that a family can build upon for family outings, vacations, and memories. After all, history is memories and can be an exciting vehicle for a family bonding like no other... barb@sbmag.org (Barbara Snyder) Fri, 24 Jun 2005 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.articleworld.net/articles/182/1/Yes%2C-You-Can-Survive-Your-Adolescent%92s-Challenging-Years Yes, You Can Survive Your Adolescent's Challenging Years and Still Support Success in School barb@sbmag.org (Barbara Snyder) Fri, 24 Jun 2005 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.articleworld.net/articles/181/1/Homework-Doesn%92t-Have-to-Be-a-Battle-of-Wills Homework. It doesn't have to be a daily battle of wills between child and parent. There are several strategies and elements that a parent can use to maximize an opportunity to support a child's education and to massage the parent/child bond. For the parent, it is a way to understand what is going on at school and an opportunity for communication. Simply put, a parent has the ability to guide a child to positive feelings about education and to the rewards of good efforts... barb@sbmag.org (Barbara Snyder) Fri, 24 Jun 2005 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.articleworld.net/articles/180/1/Mathematics---We%92re-Counting-on-Help-from-Parents Please don't give your child an excuse to dislike math by making comments about your own school experiences with it or your distaste for it. It is important for parents to be positive, active supporters of the learning process to help encourage a child. A parent's attitude can and will influence that of their offspring.

All children have untapped potential that parents can help bring out. Since students in the United States are in school fewer days and fewer hours than many other countries, this leaves many hours available for parents to step into a role far more influential than they might imagine. Education isn't just the teacher's job. A parent is a child's first teacher from birth to school age.

What do I mean by storytelling? One website says that it is "a narrative account of a real or imagined event or events" That same website (http://www.eldrbarry.net/roos/st_defn.htm) says "Stories connect us with our humanness and link past, present, and future by teaching us to anticipate the possible consequences of our actions." authorinfo@articleworld.net (Alavah Parker) Tue, 21 Jun 2005 00:00:00 -0400
