I was excited to discover CourseSites for my work as a public school teacher. I'm happy that my students also like your product. I need it even more this coming school year because I am required to teach different courses.

I am most impressed with the flexibility(灵活性)of the Blog feature on CourseSites. This tool has enabled me to design group exercises, and will really support my students to have discussions. While I have not been able to test it for a live class, I have been able to design and review the process and I am confident that the Blogs will be a very valuable tool for my students.

I have been using CourseSites for over 10 years, even while traveling all over the USA and halfway around the world. I have had students take my class from different places. During this time I had over 300 live chats, even in the middle of a typhoon (台风)! So far CourseSites has always been online — up and running.

I want to thank you and your team for creating such a fine website and for providing it for K-12 teachers and students for free. I especially appreciate the flexibility the site has. I also love the test building area. I can use "correct" answers to further explain answers and "incorrect" answers to further teach students. I am very thankful for your work.
Exercise helps to keep us in good health. Doctors at the American Heart Association suggest getting at least 150 minutes of proper physical activity every week. Many people exercise for a few minutes every day or every other day. So, getting 150 minutes every week is easy.
But what about those times when you are sick? If you do not feel well, should you keep following your exercise habit? Health experts answer these and other questions.
Edward R. Laskowski is a doctor at the Mayo Clinic. He and other experts have a general rule of yes about exercising when you are sick. It is usually fine to exercise, he explains, if your symptoms (症状)are all "above the neck". These signs may include a runny nose, a blocked nose, sneezing or a minor sore throat.
Geralyn Coopersmith is a physical fitness trainer who has written several books on exercise and nutrition. Both Coopersmith and Dr. Laskowski suggest taking a break from exercising if signs of your illness appear "below the neck". Pay special attention to symptoms such as chest congestion, extreme cough or pain in the stomach.
There are other symptoms that can tell you to avoid exercise. They include: a higher than normal body temperature, a sense of feeling extremely tired, and widespread muscle pain.
Both Coopersmith and Dr. Laskowski suggest listening to your body. If you feel really bad, take a break and let your body rest. If you don't feel too bad, these experts both suggest reducing the amount of exercise. For example, if you usually run, take a quick walk instead.
Mobile phones should be kept from classrooms, the UK minister for schools has said. Nick Gibb said he had concerns about the effect that the phone was having on children, and also said the Government should introduce lessons for pupils on how to limit their screen time.
Mr Gibb said, "Schools obviously are free to set their own behaviour policies but my own view is that schools should ban (禁止)mobile telephones and smart phones inside school, and particularly inside classrooms. I believe very strongly that children should be limiting their own use at home. Every hour spent online and on a smart phone is an hour less talking to family, and it's an hour less exercise and it's an hour less sleep. And of course it is a lack of sleep that research is showing can have a damaging effect on a child's mental health.”
The parents are told that children will be asked to break off at least every two hours and avoid social media before bedtime. The UK would be following in the footsteps of European countries if schools were to introduce a ban. with French pupils being told to leave their smart phones at home when they returned from their summer holidays last year.
At the Festival of Education at Wellington College last summer, Professor Michael from America said that any sensible head would ban mobile phones. "It's far too distracting for children having mobile phones. Texting, playing games, all this takes place. Mobile phones go off in classrooms, disrupting lessons. Ban them. If children want to use a phone in an emergency they can use the school phone."
The march of technology may seem unstoppable, but all digital things may have a way to go before they replace the traditional bedtime book — the paper one. A new study shows that paper books arc better than e-books for bedtime reading. The study suggests that the good old printed book, with real pages that you turn with your fingers, makes parents and children interact more than they do when reading with an electronic book. Researchers from the University of Michigan studied how 37 pairs of parents and children interacted with e-books and paper books. The researchers found that with electronic books, parents asked their children fewer questions and shared fewer opinions about the story.
The study involved observing parents and children (aged two or three) reading from three different book formats. These were printed books, basic e-books, and advanced e-books with pictures and sound effects. The researchers discovered that the parents and children interacted with each other less with both types of e-books than they did with the printed books. A researcher said that when they did speak, they preferred to talk about the device and the technology rather than focus on the story. More often, children would say things like, "Don't push that button (按钮)" or “Don't change the volume (音量)" instead of asking questions or making observations about the story.
Maybe you live in places where English is not the main language. This is because your mind is still translating things from your first language into English, which can also sound unnatural. English, like every other language, has its own sentence structure. The good news is that thinking in English can bring you a huge step closer to fluency! It is not very difficult, but it does take conscious effort and practice.
Think in single words
Charles Thomas has taught English to Union members, children and teenagers for over 10 years. wherever they are. Start with nouns and then add in verbs, he suggests.
Think in sentences
For example, if you are sitting in a park, you can tell yourself things like, "It's such a beautiful day." and "People are playing sports with their friends." .
Think in conversation.
For example, let's say the imaginary person asks you a question like, "What did you think of the talk show last night? " How would you answer? Imagine the conversation and practice it in your head. You can do this out loud or in silence.
Practice it daily
"When you're doing it every day, over and over again, little by little, that's the key. Then, before you know it, really, you're thinking in English/' Thomas says.
A. Therefore, you don't feel like learning English.
B. Try to talk with the people from English-speaking countries.
C. He tells his students to name the things that they see around them.
D. When you speak, your speech might be slower than you would like.
E. Once this becomes easy, you can move on to more difficult sentences.
F. This is a great way to practice what you might say in a real conversation.
G. Because when you make things a habit, it just pops up into your mind without thinking.
My son Joey was born with disability. The doctors1us that with treatment he would be able to walk2— but would never run very well. The first three years of his life were spent in3with the help of casts (石膏)and braces (支架).By the time he was eight, you wouldn't know he had a4when you saw him walk.
