Outdoor Education Camp
Dear Parents,
Our Outdoor Education Camp is just around the corner! We are excited to be going to camp so that students can better a sense of teamwork and community. Students will be improving their communication, problem-solving, and cooperation skills, as well as continuing to build self-confidence.
While at camp students will join in classes and activities on the course. We will start in the low ropes, and progress to the high ropes.
The camp will last for three days in Red Valley, Colorado. Students need to be at school at 7 a. m. on July 28h. They'll at 7p.m. on July 30h.
The Parent Committee have made a great effort to raise some money. So the cost of the camp is dollars for each student.
Thanks for your support about the camp. If you have questions, please feel free to Ms. Miller at marymiller@ yahoo.com or call her at 631-25897.
Sincerely,
Ms. Miller

A. You probably sit right at the front of the class if you re longing for knowledge. B. Research suggests that the seat you choose in the classroom says a lot about you and your personality. C. Do you sit in the middle of the classroom? D. This means it's a good idea to sit in a different place every day. E. People often think that students who sit at the back are lazy. F. Students who sit at the side of the classroom are normally interested in class. |
Where you sit and how you fit
For more than seventy years, researchers and teachers have studied the link between the place where students choose to sit in class and what they are like as people and learners. Where do you usually decide to sit? Have you ever really thought about the reasons for your decision?
But is this really true? Well, some researchers say it is not. In fact, shy students often choose the back row because it is far away from the teacher and they don't want to answer questions. At the back, students probably won't speak much, but in big classrooms, it can be hard to see the board and hear what the teacher is saying. This could be the reason why students who sit here often get lower grades on tests and exams. For students with poor eyesight or hearing, a seat at the back of the classroom is not a good choice.
However, they like watching and listening rather than joining in. These students are usually also very good at taking notes. Next time you miss a class, borrow notes from someone who sits here. On the sides of the classroom you will generally find modest and thoughtful people. These people usually get good grades in school and are interested in learning.
Then the statistics (统计数据) say you probably like your teacher. You probably also have a good relationship with your classmates. Caring, outgoing, and cheerful people usually sit in the middle. They are normally serious about learning and feel disappointed with low grades on tests and exams.
Students who sit here usually want to discuss things with the teacher and are often very interested in the subject. They want to be in the best place to see and hear everything the teacher does and says. The only problem with sitting here is that it can be difficult to see and hear what other students do and say in class. So, if you really want to hear what everyone says in class, choose a different place to sit.

A. Bad influences B. Sleeping hours C. The most tiring moments D. Good sleeping habits |
Sleep plays an important role in our life. A lack of sleep can influence our ability to work and study.
Normal people need 7 to 9 hours of sleep every night. But for teenagers, a healthy amount (数量) is about 8 to 10 hours. Sadly, only 1/3 of people manage that.
Tiredness usually reaches its highest twice a day, at 2 a.m. and 2 p.m. That explains why students easily fall asleep in afternoon classes. So sleeping at noon for a while helps us work better in the rest of the day
People can make mistakes if they don't get enough sleep. Students cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Drivers who have fallen asleep while driving have caused 1%-10% of the traffic accidents in our life. And we can imagine what will happen if a doctor feels sleepy at the operating-table!
There are several ways that can help us sleep better, such as avoiding drinks that make us excited late in the day, going to sleep at the same time each night, and sleeping in a comfortable place that is dark, quiet and warm.

Public speaking is one of the top three fears among adults in both the UK and the US. Here are some suggestions that deal with some of the most common problems people experience with public speaking.
Invite the attention in
Do you hate that moment when you stand up in front of a group to speak and everybody looks at you? . It's a sign that people are interested and want to hear what you have to say. Welcome those looks!
Beat the brain freeze
Have you ever been in the middle of speaking and suddenly……brain freeze! . It is possible that you forgot something for the moment. And you are holding your breath! All you need to do is to trust yourself, clear your mind, focus and breathe. The thoughts will come rushing back to your mind in no time. Phew!
Increase your confidence
Use this exercise to get in touch with the "naturally confident (自信的) you" inside. Close your eyes and remember a special time you felt really relaxed and confident. Imagine the feeling of relaxation rushing through your whole body. It will pass information to your brain that you are confident and happy.
Whether you are someone who just wants to move from good to great with your speaking, or someone who feels too afraid to stand up and speak, the great news is that you can move forward, be relaxed, and turn into a great speaker.
