Any commissioned officer who uses contemptuous words against the President

  A reminder: UCMJ, Article 88, - “Any commissioned officer who uses contemptuous words against the President, the Vice President, Congress, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of a military department, the Secretary of Transportation, or the Governor or legislature of any State, Territory, Commonwealth, or possession in which he is on duty or present shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.” HRC is non of the above and I detest the treasonous bitch.

“To read is to fly: it is to soar to a point of vantage which gives a view over wide terrains of history, human variety, ideas, shared experience and the fruits of many inquiries.”  - A C Grayling, Financial Times (in a review of A History of Reading by Alberto Manguel)


As educators, one of our biggest jobs is to help our students develop a love of reading. After all, without reading, as A.C. Grayling describes above, one cannot engage fully in the world.  But what if our learners have trouble accessing or reading print in the normal way? You see, 1 in 5 students in America has Dyslexia, a Learning Disability that hinders a person’s ability to decode words fluently, and ultimately read on level despite high IQ and normal comprehension.  What can we do for them?


Over ninety percent of what we teach as educators is through what we call “eye reading;” decoding and analyzing text and word patterns on a page with your eyes, which are then interpreted back into comprehension. However, there are two other types of reading that we, as educators, need to be aware of for incorporation into best teaching practices for all.

Three Types of Reading: Because there is more than just reading with your “eyes!”

1. Eye Reading

This is what 90% of us think of as “reading.”  It is what we are most tested on, and taught in schools.  Eye reading includes taking in words, sentences, and phrases through our eyes to develop meaning, which is the basis for almost all reading and ultimately comprehension for a majority of people.  Without a doubt, eye reading must be taught and focused on in early elementary grades, especially in terms of developing phonemic awareness, fluency, and decoding skills.  But what happens when a child still cannot “break the code” well beyond the elementary years?


2. Ear Reading

This is where ear reading can come into play.  When you have a student who can’t “decode” the text but is reading/comprehending at a much higher level, they can still “read” with their ears!  As Jennifer A., a Reading Specialist outside of Chicago, states to students; “You might learn better through your ears than you do taking in information through your eyes, and that’s totally fine because your brain is still doing the work with it.”

Check out the audiobooks of Learning Ally (human voice recorded) and Bookshare (digitized voice) that work to make reading accessible by providing oft-used textbooks, fiction, literature and more for K-12, college, and life-long reading.Watch the video by Sally Shaywitz at Yale Center for Dyslexia and Creativity here on the subject of audiobooks and ear reading.

3. Finger Reading

Finger reading is better known as “Braille Reading.”  We would never say to a student with blindness or vision impairment that, when reading braille, they are not actually reading, would we?  Then why do we say to students with Dyslexia and/or Learning Disability that “ear reading” is not really reading? Just like ear and eye reading, finger reading helps unlock doors for students, adults and learners who cannot access print in the normal way.

For students with Dyslexia, or a Learning Disability in Reading/Decoding, research has shown us that allowing students to “ear read” may make the difference between helping advance their comprehension growth or hinder it.  In order to fully help students with Dyslexia in the classroom, they first need to be engaged in Multi-Sensory Structured Language (MSL) program instruction to help them “crack the code.” Read a list of recommended research-based MSL programs from the International Dyslexia Association. Next, provide audiobooks to help aid in grade-level comprehension and student self-growth. The combination of MSL program instruction and audiobooks are a powerful combination for all learners to keep up with their same age peers.  


What do you think about this list? Do you incorporate the three types of reading in your classroom? Let’s discuss on twitter @LindseyLipsky or a leave comment below.

Noun adjunct modifier

 Noun adjunct

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Look up attributive noun in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

In grammar, a noun adjunct or attributive noun or noun (pre)modifier is an optional noun that modifies another noun; it is a noun functioning as an adjective. For example, in the phrase "chicken soup" the noun adjunct "chicken" modifies the noun "soup". It is irrelevant whether the resulting compound noun is spelled in one or two parts. "Field" is a noun adjunct in both "field player" and "fieldhouse".[1]


Swan* describes typical uses of noun + noun structures. In part, he states:


"The noun + noun structure is mostly used to make 'classifying' expressions which name a particular type of thing.


mountain plants (a special group of plants) [Rachel notes NOT 'mountainous plants.'....]

We use noun + noun especially to talk about things that belong to common well-known classes (so that the two nouns really describe a single idea)...


history book (a common class of book) [Rachel notes NOT '[atrike]historical book[/strike]']

He was reading a book about the moon. (NOT a moon book ...."


At the end of his relatively long description of advanced points of noun + noun, Swan says:


"This is a very complicated area of English grammar. The 'rules' given above show the general patterns, but unfortunate there is no easy way to be quite sure which structure is used to express a particular compound idea. The most common expressions will be learnt by experience; in cases of doubt, a good dictionary will often show shich form is correct."


Swan's comments are, perhaps, directed at learners way below those of us discussing this topic. However, they serve to remind us that the 'rules' are guidelines.


I personally think that Fowler's directive to prefer an adjective, if one exists, instead of a noun, strikes me as being unnecessarily prescriptive.

In/at the factory/distinction 

Hello,They are both correct; it depends on what you want to say.There is no huge difference.

Regards.

at (æt)

I work in the factory = I am most definitely in the factory building!

I work at the factory = I am most likely inside the building, but I might also be outside the factory!

Hope this helps more than confuses you!

I would say that "in" simply means that you are in the building whereas "at" means that you are at a certain place to do something, a specific activity:


I am in the garden, in that room, in the tube: simple locations.

I am at school (to work)

I am at the cinema: to watch a film

I am at the doctor's : to be cured.

I am at the factory: to work, to make money.

I am at work.


He works at the factory: you describe his activity

He works in a big factory: you specify if it is a big or a small building.

He works in a big factory, at workshop number three.


Sometimes, there is a difference in meaning:


He is at the hospital, he works at the hospital:

He has found a good job at the hospital.

He is in (the) hospital: as a patient, as a victim of an accident.

I ended up at the hospital: you took the wrong road, you didn't want to go there originally.

I ended up in hospital: because there was something wrong with your health.


The pupils are "at school" but if a dog comes into the school through an open door ,you will say : There is a dog in the school .
