Chemistry Safety Video For Your Classroom

Chemistry Safety Video For Your ClassroomBeing a teacher, I am always looking for ways to provide content that is not only interesting but can also motivate my students. Sometimes this can be done by teaching them things that they already know, but more often than not it is through more hands-on activities and experience. I use a chemistry safety video to keep my students motivated through the content I teach.For many years I taught chemistry to my students. In addition to lab-related activities, I provided a more hands-on chemistry lesson plan. One of the more popular lessons we used was one on chemistry safety. The lesson plan consisted of lots of videos on teaching and learning about the proper way to use chemical safety equipment. To make sure that my students kept their eyes peeled and tried to always be aware of the proper methods of handling chemicals, I added in a chemistry safety video.One of the benefits of doing this was that the chemistry safety video gave my students ano ther aspect to look at. It also helped them to keep up with what they were learning. I also found that it made me a better teacher.When I used this concept in my science classes, the other teachers started asking me questions like, 'What is the chemistry safety video about?' or 'How do I use the video as part of my lesson plan?' There was also some cross-over with the subjects that I was teaching in my chemistry classes, so students could have a different subject to learn about while enjoying my video.It was great when I shared the chemistry safety video with my students. I found that more experienced students were just as enthusiastic about watching the video as the new ones. This gave me more time to prepare lesson plans and be creative with my lesson plan.Now that I am a chemistry teacher, I often use the video in one of my lessons. Now that I am a chemistry teacher, I often use the video in one of my lessons.By using this in my class, I am able to keep my students motivated and constantly be able to check out what I have taught them. A chemistry safety video is fun for both me and my students. I hope you have enjoyed this article.

Você sabe o que quer dizer norrau

Você sabe o que quer dizer norrau Stuart Miles / FreeDigitalPhotos.netOntem falei com a minha mãe ao telefone e a nossa conversa fez com que eu me lembrasse de uma das situações mais embaraçosas que eu já tive em toda a minha vida. Estranhamente, ninguém presenciou o momento no qual me senti envergonhada, foi mesmo uma daquelas situações de vergonha alheia tão grande, mas tão grande, que eu nunca mais esqueci.A frase da minha mãe, que fez com que eu me lembrasse desse momento vergonhoso, foi a seguinte: Filha, eu posso ser velha, mas com a idade vem o norrau, né?  Se você não sabe o que a palavra norrau  significa, respira fundo e vem comigo. Prometo, você vai rir horrores da minha cara no fim.Tudo começou quando eu era criança. Nessa idade, vamos aprendendo palavras e posteriormente descobrindo como elas são escritas, qual o seu verdadeiro significado, quando devem ser usadas e afins. Eu deveria ter uns 8 anos quando ouvi a palavra norrau  pela primeira vez da boca da minha mãe, durante a minha ad olescência procurei em diversos dicionários a bendita da palavra e nunca encontrei. Cheguei a achar que a minha mãe tinha inventado a palavra, porque se ninguém mais usava e não estava em nenhum dicionário, só essa razão me parecia plausível.Certa vez perguntei à minha mãe se a palavra era em Português, ao que ela respondeu que não se lembrava, que lhe tinham ensinado que norrau  era o mesmo que ter conhecimento ou ser expert e que ela usava a palavra partindo desse pressuposto. Eu não fiquei satisfeita, nunca consegui satisfazer a minha curiosidade, mas esqueci o assunto. Pelo menos até o dia em que este assunto vem atrás de mim.Eu devia ter uns 19 anos e estava dentro de um ônibus, viajando de Vila Real para o Porto (em Portugal), quando, de repente, olho pela janela e vejo um prédio, coberto com um painel fazendo publicidade à uma empresa de construção, com a seguinte mensagem: Know-how? Só a empresa X é que tem!Li mentalmente, li em voz alta, li com o meu melhor sotaque de Inglês, li com o pior sotaque possivel. Fiquei sem palavras. Até hoje não entendo o motivo que me fez ler e reler uma mensagem aparentemente simples tantas vezes, mas se não o tivesse feito nunca na minha vida saberia que norrau, contra todas as hipóteses do universo, era a forma distorcida como alguém ensinou a minha mãe a dizer know-how.Durante algum tempo fiquei incrédula, depois finalmente entendi que era mesmo isso e que não adiantava eu me sentir envergonhada por ter dito norrau em diversas conversas na minha vida. Quem entendeu sabia melhor que eu, quem não entendeu e fingiu que tinha entendido foi simplesmente estúpido e, estranhamente, ninguém jamais perguntou o que era, portanto, ou sabiam ou fingiram que sabiam. Porém, a partir desse dia, no qual finalmente descobri como escrever e o significado daquela palavra que a minha mãe usava tanto, nunca mais fui capaz de dizer  know-how  de ânimo leve.

Crime and Punishment Vocabulary for IELTS - Upper Intermediate

Crime and Punishment Vocabulary for IELTS - Upper Intermediate There is a well known book entitled “Crime and Punishment” written by the equally well known Russian author Dostoyevsky. There is also a BBC series of the same name. My post, however, is a little more mundane (common) where I take a look at English crime and punishment vocabulary words and phrases. By the end of this post you will be able to learn, recognise and use some of these useful  English words and expressions related to crime and punishment. Enjoyed this infographic? Here’s what you can do next: Crime and Punishment Vocabulary Words Vocabulary related to CrimeROBBERYa robbery takes place when someone (a robber)  enters a property that is not his/hers and  takes something  (cash,  paintings,  jewellery and other items).A ROBBER (the person)  usually breaks in  (gains access illegally to a building, house office or apartment)  and robs  (the verb to rob)  items as I  have described.Many centuries ago there were “highway Robbers” travelling across England on  horseback where they would rob the stagecoach usually occupied by well off (wealthy) travellers.A  BREAK IN  to our home or office is also referred to as BURGLARY  and the  BURGLAR  is the criminal.MUGGINGThis is where an individual is attacked in the street and robbed of his possessions he is  carrying.  These usually consist of jewellery like rings and watches, cash, credit cards and mobile  phones.The MUGGER  (person who commits the crime)  may or may not use violence. The victim is  then said to haven been MUGGED  or robbed.ASSAULTThis word is usually used to describe when a person is attacked in their home or work place  or in the street by a person referred to as the ASSAILANT. The attack may be an unprovoked attack (not planned or carried out for a particular reason). The reason is not usually to take possessions but  purely to inflict harm or injury on the VICTIM  (the person assaulted).SHOPLIFTINGNot seen as a really serious crime as people are seldom injured, shoplifting is when an  individual deliberately takes something from a shop with out paying for the goods. This is typically  food or clothing that is concealed (hidden)  in a bag or a coat to avoid being detected  (seen) by a  security guard or shop assistant. The SHOPLIFTERS (those carrying out the crime)  are often young  adolescents (teenagers)  but not always.PICKPOCKETINGA well known crime which is highlighted in many old novels. This occurs when  someone unknown to you casually  (in a relaxed way)  is able to steal (take with out your knowledge) a purse or walle t from your coat or pockets whilst standing beside or behind you. This often takesplace in a busy street where people are constantly bumping into each other. The PICKPOCKET (criminal)  mixes with the crowd in shops and train stations trying to identify an unsuspecting  (innocent) victim. Crime and Punishment Vocabulary Words Vocabulary Words related to Crime (continued)MURDERThis is of course the most serious of all crimes. People are regrettably murdered every day.Some people die accidentally in car accidents so they are  KILLED  not murdered.When someone is  murdered it is usually deliberate  (intentional). For example,  shot by an armed robber or attacked in  the street.  However,  if someone dies from an attack but it was not intended to kill that person then  the murderer/killer is likely to be charged with  MANSLAUGHTER  which is a lesser charge.FRAUDThis has been a crime throughout the centuries and usually associated with money or  valuable paintings or jewellery. The  FRAUDSTER  (criminal) attempts to get someone’s money or  valuables. This in the case of a painting can be attempted by trying to replace the original painting with a copy (forgery).Today,  fraud is now a big issue because of internet crimes so people are trying  to find ways to access our personal details and bank accounts on-li ne and rob us without having to  physically break in to our homes or offices.Other crimes include  ARSON  where someone deliberately sets fire to buildings or forestsand  BLACKMAIL  where the criminal (BLACKMAILER)  tries to get money for you in exchange for not divulging  (releasing) very private information that may damage your reputation (personal photo’s or details perhaps of some affair).So there are many ways to describe different types of crime as we have seen: Burglary,  Robbery,  Mugging, Shoplifting but the unfortunate person is usually only referred to as a  victim.  A VICTIM OF CRIME. Vocabulary Words related to PunishmentOnce the criminal is apprehended  (caught by the police)  then the process is often a long one  involving months or years before he/she is brought before the courts, put on trial (in front of a  Judge and a Jury) and if/when found guilty sentenced (what prison term he /she will get)  and sent  to jail.A JURY  is a group of citizens (usually no more than 12 men and women)  who are picked  randomly and listen to the evidence presented and directed  (helped by)  by the judge, decide based  on the evidence they hear whether the accused is guilty of the crime.For lesser crimes like shoplifting and petty crimes  (damage to public property)  the  OFFENDER  (often  youngsters)  may get COMMUNITY SERVICE  (working some hours in the community instead of a prison sentence). This could involve cleaning the streets or painting public property or helping deliver  meals to the elderly.Other criminals can be put on PROBATION (released from prison)  for a period of  months or years. They can live at home and will not go to prison provided they do not carry out any  criminal activity for the probation period. In recent years some countries have introduced ELECTRONIC TAGGING  (a tag like a watch or electronic gadget) of these type of criminals so the police can track  (study)  their movements and they may be restricted from leaving their home between 7  pm in the  evening and 7 am in the morning.

Whats your Internet Identity

What's your Internet Identity Photo by jared on flickr.com We are able to control what other people see in our personal lives. If we have a bad day, we have the option to complain about it on Facebook or Twitter or to keep it to ourselves and not let anyone know. Vice Versa, if we have a fantastic day, we have the option to brag about it and let the whole world know. We create an identity and a personality with what we choose to share with the World Wide Web. What we choose to write, share, post, read, and buy  creates an image that we portray on the internet; however, the image we portray on the internet may not be the same as the image we portray in real life. On the internet we can create an image that is happy-go-lucky seemingly every day, but in reality we may not be so happy on a daily basis. The internet has allowed us to create this avatar of ourselves without us even realizing it. Most of us probably do not think about how a simple Facebook post will affect our internet identity, but reality is that everything we do on the internet does exactly that. The internet has become an alternate reality where we are able to portray ourselves in a different light and communicate with others through posts and pictures and what we all now call “Facebook stalking.” Through this alternate reality we are able to access information on a person based on their internet identity, but do we ever really know a person until we spend actual time with them? Today, we live in a world where we are constantly connected and our internet identity is seen as a direct reflection of who we are. But it is not a direct reflection. It is an image that has been carefully created for others to see, either consciously or not. Do we want others to think that we are constantly happy-go-lucky, or do we want others to know how we feel on a day to day basis? I guess that is up to us. We can use our internet identities both to our advantage and to our disadvantage. If we are careful enough we can create an internet identity that will attract future employers, but on the other hand, and this is something we all know, our internet identity can  turn away   future employers. current employers, and more.   Our internet identity is something we have absolute control over and we can choose whether we want to focus our image on friends or work.   Both have their advantages.   Both have their disadvantages. But which one do we create? As college students we are stuck between the two. We are placed in both a social and professional setting.   We want friends to be able to find and communicate with us through the internet, but we also want current and potential employers to do so.   We need to create an internet identity that works for both our friends and employers.   We can post our weekend events, but maybe leave out the incredibly drunk pictures.   We cannot complain about our bosses on Facebook, Twitter, or any other form of social media.   We can create an identity that reflects who we are both socially and professionally, but we have to recognize that we do control our image.

How To Create Your Own Business Cards The Right Way

How To Create Your Own Business Cards The Right Way Via (LinkedIn) While LinkedIn and Twitter are useful tools to share your work experience and information, a person may just need an e-mail address to contact you; hand over a personal card with your name and number for easier accessibility. Designing your business card can be simple by using these three tips. 1. What to Include As simple as a business card may look, including the right information can save you and your card’s recipient time and trouble. For example, only use updated and reliable details that would make it easier for a person to get in contact with you. Here is general information that should appear on your personal business card. A Name Make sure to put your full name and not what your friends call you or a shortened version of your name. If you have a middle name, the time to decide if you like your middle name or not has come. An Address A city and state should do. No one really needs to know your personal home location. Omitting your street name and number also gives off an air of discretion. An E-Mail Address By now, you’ve probably made several email accounts. One may be your subscription and spam mail account; you should designate one address to be your business inquiries account. An easy way to choose is list the account you use most often since you won’t forget to check for any important messages. A Phone Number Only list your cellphone number since you have it on you all the time. Make sure to set up your voicemail greeting for an extra pinch of professionalism. What To Avoid Via (Bundlr) It doesn’t have to look too flashy. Keep your card simple to read. You can use a smaller version of your personalized logo as a trademark symbol of certification. Just don’t paste it over your whole card; people will appreciate they didn’t have to force their vision. Don’t buy in bulk. You may not need 250 printed cards, and you’ll probably have no use for them after you’re employed. I’d say about 50 will do, so don’t spend more than you have to. Collecting dust is not a business card’s purpose. Do not include social media links on your business card. Right off the bat, no one cares how many followers you have or about your latest Instagram posts. Deliver yourself in a pitch and let them want to know more about you. If they seek you out using your card information, send them a return email with your links under your signature for more engagement. Tools You Can Use Where should you go for business card making? Use these stores and sites as references or printers for your new networking tool. Office Depot has the most standard delivery for card design and printing for the passive student. Their “100 cards for $20” sweet deal goes well with their free standard delivery with no minimum purchase; you save $15 off the regular price and no shipping? My wallet likes that. The UPS Store offers templates, printing, and pick-up. Their offers start at $24.99 for a minimum of 100 cards. If you have a location near you, some stores have a graphic designer on staff to help you create your card. Vistaprint is a one-stop shop for marketers as well as new entrepreneurs. They have several ways for you to create your cards such as uploading a design, searching through templates, or requesting an expert’s services. They offer a variety of packages and features that can help you create the card that you want and even offer tips as “proven ways to get you noticed.” Moo is the cool entrepreneur’s holy grail in business. They don’t just help you create and print business cards they help you create cards for everyone in your new business! The site offers different amount and preference packages, postcard designs for special events, and even stickers. Overnight Prints is the same, or better, deal as Vistaprint. They ensure that no matter what design you choose, it will be high quality. They stay true to their name and offer overnight delivery with their B.I.T.G.I.T. system  buy it today, get it tomorrow. Order by 8 p.m. EST and your cards will arrive the next day. Business cards save the day when randomly engaging in a networking opportunity or attending social events. Keep several cards in your wallet for emergencies. Use your best judgment, and these tips, to create some good-looking, attention-grabbing, useful business cards.

Teaching English in Japan What are the requirements

Teaching English in Japan What are the requirements Japan is one of the most popular destinations for those looking to teach English abroad. It’s not hard to see why. From the bright lights of Tokyo to the temples of Kyoto, the country is that perfect combination of being vastly different than what you are used to while also being technologically advanced, politically stable and safe. It’s one of those places where you can get completely outside of your comfort zone, with the only risk being that you won’t want to leave. If a springtime picnic under the cherry blossom trees or a once in a lifetime trek up Mount Fuji sounds better than what you are doing right now, then it might be time to look into teaching English in Japan. English is increasingly becoming a mandatory part of the school curriculum in this country of 127 million people, and plenty of adults are looking to learn the language in order to travel or further their careers, meaning English teachers are perpetually in high demand. So if teaching nouns and verbs by day and drinking sake and singing karaoke with Japanese salarymen by night sounds like your kind of life, then read on, because these are the requirements to teach English in Japan. Read this: Dreaming of teaching abroad? Here are the 5 best programs hiring right now! You’re going to need a work visa. Assuming you can’t obtain Japanese citizenship somehow, you’re going to need a work visa. The two types of visas most relevant to someone looking to teach English in Japan are the instructor visa and the specialist in humanities visa. The two visas serve essentially the same function but allow you to work in different places, with the instructor visa allowing you to work in public institutions like elementary and high schools, and the specialist in humanities visa allowing you to work for private language schools or companies. The requirements to teach English in Japan are essentially the requirements to get one of these two visas, because if you can’t get one, you’re out of luck. So, what do you need to get one of these two visas? You need to have a degree. Japan’s immigration laws require you to have a bachelor’s degree in order to be eligible for a work visa. However, this degree doesn’t need to be in English, education or anything remotely related to teaching English abroad. You can’t teach with the JET program, for example, without a degree. Any old bachelor’s degree will do. Finally that philosophy degree you worked so hard for can be put to good use! Because after all, if you don’t use that Philosophy degree, does it even exist? You need to have a job offer. In order to get your hands on a visa, you will first need to be hired, by either a public or private institution, who will then sponsor you during the process of obtaining your visa. Teach Away is a great job-hunting resource that can connect you with loads of great schools looking to hire potential English teachers just like yourself, who will then help you with the visa process. However, getting the job required to obtain the work visa comes with its own set of requirements. You need to speak English. Well, duh. This one should go without saying. However, just because something appears straightforward doesn’t mean somebody didn’t create some rules about it! Basically, your chances of not only being hired but getting a work visa will be greatly improved if you are deemed to be a “native speaker”. Read this: Can I teach English abroad if I’m a non-native speaker? In fact, in order to be eligible for an instructor visa for the purposes of teaching a foreign language, one has to have been educated in that language for at least 12 years. When it comes to private schools, they have more leeway as to who they hire. Having a passport from one of the more prominent English speaking countries (U.S.A, Canada, U.K. Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa) is undoubtedly an advantage, and even then, citizens of some of those countries might be given preference over others if the school deems their accents preferred. Still, a non-native speaker (or someone with a passport from a non-English-speaking country) can get a visa provided they find a company to hire them. It might be difficult, but a TEFL certificatee or previous teaching experience elsewhere might level the playing field a bit. So don’t give up, young Swede! You might need a criminal record check. Japan has one of the lowest crime rates in the world, and they would like to keep it that way. Though not a necessity for obtaining a visa, many, if not most jobs, won’t hire you without a criminal record check, especially if you are working with children. But hey, we’re sure you’ve all kept your noses clean thus far in life, right? If not, well you might have a harder time, even though we’re sure you’re very sorry for what you did. Once hired, your English-speaking, TEFL certified, law-abiding self can then submit the requisite paperwork to obtain a work visa at a Japanese embassy or consulate in your home country, so you can arrive in Japan with your visa in order and ready go. Sign up to Teach Away today for access to the latest teaching jobs around the world. You have to meet the age requirement. Japanese people officially retire at 60 years of age, meaning it’s really difficult (although not totally impossible) to be hired by a school if you’re past that age. Read this: Will I face age restrictions teaching abroad? Our final word of advice: A TEFL certificate = more job opportunities (?). Though not required to get a work visa, a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate will undoubtedly increase your odds of finding an English teaching job in Japan. In fact, many of the more reputable (and higher paying schools) will require it, meaning having one will increase not only your options but possibly your paycheck. Recommended reading: What is TEFL? Should I get TEFL certified? What qualifications do I need to teach English abroad? So that’s about it. A degree in any subject and someone willing to hire you is all you need to teach English in Japan. Though meeting other requirements can make the job search smoother (and maybe even more financially rewarding), those two things, along with a valid passport, some paperwork and a sense of adventure are about all you need to start an adventure of a lifetime. So what are you waiting for?
