...In the book, The Devil’s Arithmetic, by Jane Yolen, Hannah Stern, changes drastically. She started out as an ill-mannered and arrogant 13 year old, but towards the end she became more appreciative and knowledgeable about her religion and family. The book begins with Hannah being disinterested in, and even embarrassed by, her Jewish heritage and family. “All Jewish holidays are about remembering, Mama. I’m tired of remembering” Says Hannah (Yolen pg 4). While at the dinner table Hannah is very disrespectful, and impolite. “It isn’t fair! She realized suddenly that she’d spoken the last words out loud and everyone heard.” (Yolen pg 15). At Shmuel’s house Hannah is doubtful and reluctant, yet sad and observant. (Yolen 30) While at the dinner table, everything seemed so real, yet Hannah wouldn’t believe that she was living. (Yolen pg 30) “-she had to keep reminding herself it was all a...

...Name Isaiah Wiggin Teacher Mrs. Feller Class ELA Date Literary Analysis of Touching Spirit Bear and The Devil’s Arithmetic “ Often those that criticise others reveal what he himself lacks” said Shannon Alder. Often strong inter conflicts lead into deeper inner conflicts. “Touching Spirit Bear” and “Devil's Arithmetic” have similar conflicts they separate when the conflicts lead into the deep inner conflicts.

...How do you feel about your heritage? Well Hannah from the book The Devil’s Arithmetic by Jane Yolen was trying to reject her jewish heritage before she travels into the past. Although many people think as Hannah turns into Chaya she is still rejecting her heritage, but I know she is accepting. As Hannah travels back into the past she tastes the food that ancestors had. Some people who think she is still rejecting her heritage believe that she is having food because she needs to eat something. "And how, my brother, do we put weight on those bones when she doesn't eat?" Shmuel says while Hannah was picking at her food. Hannah had to eat something because if she did not that would be rude, and plus she couldn’t starve. As she tasted the food her ancestor’s ate when they were growing up she was re-living the lives of her ancestors. “She was surprised when it tasted real, not like dream food should have tasted.” When Hannah ate that food she knew she wasn’t in a dream, but in history....

...The Devil's Arithmetic was a great book and movie! There are many differences though to the movie and the book, but there is also a plethora of similarities. I will be showing you the similarities, and the differences all in this essay. So come along and relive the book with me! The Devil’s Arithmetic book was written by Jane Yolen and the movie was directed by Donna Deitch in 1999. In summary, I would describe this story by saying that it is amazing, inspirational, and well written. The story is about a jewish girl named Hannah, when she is at a dinner party called Seder something happens. Hannah opens a door to a whole new world, literally. When she is transported to the year 1945, she is confused but she will soon learn that this is just the beginning. While her uncle named Shmuel is getting married, something happens. The Nazis kidnap them and take them to a concentration camp to work for the rest of their lives!

...arguments for approval of the project. On the other hand, the current market for commercial airplanes was depressed because of terrorism risks, war, and SARS, a contagious illness that resulted in global travel warnings. Boeing’s board of directors would need to weigh those considerations before granting final approval to proceed with the project. The task for students is to evaluate the 7E7 project against a financial standard, the investors’ required returns. The case gives internal rates of return (IRR) for the 7E7 project under base-case and alternative forecasts. The students must estimate a weighted-average cost of capital (WACC) for Boeing’s commercial-aircraft business segment in order to evaluate the IRRs. As a result of that analysis, the students identify the key value drivers and distinguish, on a qualitative basis, the key gambles that Boeing is making. The general objective of this case is to exercise students’ skills in estimating a weighted-average cost of capital and cost of equity. The need for students to estimate a segment WACC draws out their abilities to critique different estimates of beta and to manipulate the levered-beta formulas. Boeing competes in both the commercial aircraft and the defense business. Thus, deriving the appropriate benchmark WACC for the 7E7 project requires isolating the commercial aircraft component from Boeing’s overall corporate WACC. In doing so, students...

...Preface Let me begin this preface with a confession of a few of my own biases. First, I believe that theory and the models that flow from it should provide the tools to understand, analyze, and solve problems. The test of a model or theory then should not be based on its elegance but on its usefulness in problem solving. Second, there is little in corporate financial theory that is new and revolutionary. The core principles of corporate finance are common sense and have changed little over time. That should not be surprising. Corporate finance is only a few decades old, and people have been running businesses for thousands of years; it would be exceedingly presumptuous of us to believe that they were in the dark until corporate finance theorists came along and told them what to do. To be fair, it is true that corporate financial theory has made advances in taking commonsense principles and providing structure, but these advances have been primarily on the details. The story line in corporate finance has remained remarkably consistent over time. Talking about story lines allows me to set the first theme of this book. This book tells a story, which essentially summarizes the corporate finance view of the world. It classifies all decisions made by any business into three groups—decisions on where to invest the resources or funds that the business has raised, either internally or externally (the investment decision), decisions on where and how to raise funds to finance...

...ability, use a variety of learning activities to improve their understanding of a subject. Each member of a team is responsible not only for learning what is taught but also for helping teammates learn, thus creating an atmosphere of achievement. WHY USE IT? Documented results include improved academic achievement, improved behavior and attendance, increased self-confidence and motivation, and increased liking of school and classmates. Cooperative learning is also relatively easy to implement and is inexpensive. HOW DOES IT WORK? Here are some typical strategies that can be used with any subject, in almost any grade, and without a special curriculum: Group Investigations are structured to emphasize higher-order thinking skills such as analysis and evaluation. Students work to produce a group project, which they may have a hand in selecting. STAD (Student Teams-Achievement Divisions) is used in grades 2-12. Students with varying academic abilities are assigned to 4- or 5-member teams in order to study what has been initially taught by the teacher and to help each reach his or her highest level of achievement. Students are then tested individually. Teams earn certificates or other recognition based on the degree...
