...intolerable pain which tears you apart, like a stone heavy on the heart, but I know now that I really wasn’t. Every morning, every meal times, every evening it hurt so badly I wanted to hurt her too. I so badly need her here, to feel her love, to touch out to her. I remember bedtimes which were for stories and adventures, the touch of her gentle hugs, the smell of her softly shampooed hair, and the sparkle of her soul. She’s now my ghost, an unfelt, unspoken memory of the past. Dad was still shouting to me from the bottom of the stairs as I drifted away from my childhood memories. He was holding a letter and had a face like thunder as he crossly waved the envelope towards my outstretched hand. ‘I think it’s your Mothers writing’. Boom Boom Boom!! Sounded the fastness of my heavy heart as I gingerly took the letter from my dad and uttered not a word as I backtracked without a backwards glance to my haven. A mixture of apprehension, fear and anger crashed over me like a tidal wave crashing against my skull, how dare she contact me yet again and put me through all this pain. Slowly, Slowly I open the letter and gingerly remove it from its personal surroundings. This wasn’t the first letter and certainly wasn’t to be the last letter from my mum who was once more asking for reconciliation, forgiveness on my part and offering explanations on hers. A feeling of emptiness laid heavy as I knew that however many letters, texts I received from my mum there was absolutely nothing I could...

...Christina Wright Interview Paragraphs Cynthia Frazier-Jackson is one of the coolest seniors I know. She is also one of the bluntest people I know. For example, one time when my hair was out of place, she straight up told me that I needed to fix it. She doesn’t beat around the bush and she isn’t fake, she gives it to you like it is. Cynthia is one of those people who always smiles no matter what is going on. Even when she’s mad or upset about something, she doesn’t reminisce on the past. I strive to be like her in many ways. She is like a role-model to me and a lot of other students. That is why Cynthia is one of the coolest seniors I know. Tyleesha has been like a big sister to me.

Rap/Hip-hop music have been around since the late 1970’s in New York City. Icons in American songwriting are Bob Dylan and Mariah Carey.

...Use rhythm, music and singing to tune IN your students to working WITH you and tune OUT the worries and distractions of other thoughts. 30 seconds of a good backing track can engage a class far more quickly than 30 minutes of our voice and instructions. They tend over time to ‘tune out’ our voices. Music instantly engages. Rhythm, music and singing help build a collaborative ‘group’ identity – the ‘singing tribe’. Call – Response patterns that emphasise rhythm and sound. eg: 1) Warm ups – French Boom Chicka Boom – (see pdf) • Using praise praises for the whole class to chant ‘well done’ to good contributors • Get the children to take over the ‘Call’ function as soon as possible from you. You are modelling skills and empowering them to model to each other as well. Children leading others is a very powerful re-inforcer and motivator. 2) Injecting backing tracks into lessons at key points • allows you ‘pick up’ or ‘calm down’ a lesson depending upon the mood. • allows you to overlay any lyrical content that you want to highlight from your lesson. • You can use songs from Sing Up website but you can also simply use the backing tracks of some key songs Example Let’s Dance backing track from Sing Up website Suggest some lyrics to practise to this track from any work you have done today. Can you see a way in which children could be asked to suggest some simple lyrics that summarise key points of a lesson...

...operator and the boom technician. Without these people a movie would not have good sound as far as dialogue and ambiance. The first job is the mixer. This person has a lot of responsibilities. They connect the mixer to the recorder along with connecting the other equipment to the mixer. They make sure that we have good sound. They do this by putting the mixer audio level at zero and then putting the recorders DB level at negative twelve. By doing this it gives them some head room incase an actor increases the ton of their voice i.e. yells at another actor, we will still have good audio. The mixer is also in charge of doing the time codes. This means they right down the time code or this time on the recorder which the audio is recording and then writes down if that take was good or bad. Next we have the cord operator. This person’s job although you may think it is pretty easy it is a very important part of this department. Without a cord operator your boom person can fall, trip, ect. because someone is on standing on the cord. This person is also in charge of keeping the cords wrapped correctly. The last job on set as far as sound goes is the boom operator. This person determines which kind of mic he or she should use for any given scene. There are a few mics for him/her to choice from. There is the lavaliere mic which is a personal mic that is attached to the actor’s person. There is a stationary lavaliere mic which is hidden in a scene. Then there is the boom mic which is...

...During the Civil War, the government had to finance for supplies such as: uniforms, weapons, and food. The money that went into buying those goods ended up in the pockets of industrialists who manufactured them. The money that they gained allowed industrialization to grow. Industrialization was infinitely bad for the U.S. society between 1865 to 1900 because it contributed to horrible working conditions, corruption, and the boom and bust cycle. Many of the jobs available during industrialization were affecting the wellbeing of the society. It says in document two that workers had disposable occupations that had the same repetitive movement to it. I say that by submitting workers through mind numbing and draining conditions, the workers were losing their humanity. And so industrialization was endangering the lives of the workers. The author’s purpose in writing was to inform the government and companies about what workers experience and is shown by the list of what workers did and suffered. Workers suffered because they were abused and taken advantage by businessmen. It says in document six that men and women were both overworked and treated worse than property. I say that the conditions in which the laborers were forced to work in were a hazard to their lives. And so industrialization negatively affected society because businessman did not care about what happen to their workers as long...

...America in the 1920’s The Boom Period During the 1920s there was a prolonged boom in the American economy. Industrial production doubled, the economy grew rapidly and fortunes were made. Life had never seemed better for the majority of the American people. The boom developed for a number of reasons. World War I The European economies were exhausted by the cost of waging a long war. In comparison, the USA grew rich during the war years. Its late arrival to the war, and the fact that its cities and industries were not bombed or destroyed during the conflict, meant that at the end of the war it was able to capitalise on the perilous state of European industry and dominate their markets. New technologies The first 20 years of the twentieth century saw huge technological advances in industry. Factories became automated. Machines and other improved manufacturing techniques meant that huge amounts of goods could be made at a fraction of the cost. The age of mass production had arrived. In the decade of the 1920s economic output increased by a staggering 50%. Consumer boom Because goods could be produced in greater numbers and at much lower prices, more people were able to afford them. This led to huge increases in the sales of products such as cars, refrigerators, radios and cookers. Buying on credit This consumer boom was greatly aided by the availability of hire purchase - the ability to buy goods on credit. Because times were good, people were not worried about...

I will then discuss why these inventions took place and then state some of the main individuals and organisations that impacted these changes. The 60s were described by historians as a significant change in history and especially technology. By the end of the 60s humanity had entered the space age by sending the first man to the moon. The 60s were influenced by the youth of the post-war baby boom. On the other hand, the 70s began the age of the first practical computer which was made possible by a man called Hewlett Packard the founder of HP computers. He named the first mass marketed laptop calculator the HP 9100A. This quickly became a huge success marketed all around the world which could calculate sophisticated equations for high end business men.
