Deck the Hall
: Welsh traditional arranged by June Clark
This carol is a jolly romp celebrating the secular side of Christmas. The melody is treated to some extrovert ‘Fa-la-la-ing’ whilst the accompaniment trips along in jaunty manner. The final verse blows a little colder at ‘heedless of the wind and weather’, but soon livens up again, culminating in a triumphant ‘Warlock’ style ending.
Bereite dich, Zion: The Christmas Oratorio by Bach (1685-1750)
An aria from ‘The Christmas Oratorio’, this is a magnificent example of Bach’s clever writing, with its brilliant counterpoint in the accompaniment. ‘Prepare thyself Zion, in sweet expectation; the purest, the fairest soon comes to his bride. You must show Him that your heart, with love o’er-flowing, welcomes the Bridegroom who brings your salvation.’
The Truth from above: Words by W. Jenkins, tune by Ella Leather, arranged by R.VaughanWilliams (1872-1958)
Because of its modal setting and choice of five beats to the bar, this carol evokes a timeless quality. It is simple in its conception, keeping to the same treatment, a quiet chordal accompaniment for verses 1-4, which expands quite quickly into a majestic final verse.
How beautiful are the feet: Oratorio ‘Messiah’ by Handel (1685-1758) Words from Isaiah 52 v7
Although this aria is often sung by a soprano this transposed version by Watkins Shaw is also accepted as standard for counter tenor. It is one of the most poignant and telling arias of the oratorio and needs little introduction.
How far is it to Bethlehem?: Words by Frances Chesterton, English traditional carol arranged by June Clark
The simple melody begins with unaccompanied voice. It seems that we are asking the question, maybe from our far off country. The piano adds a rocking accompaniment, first anchored to a pedal bass note, which then expands to richer harmonies as we approach the stable. The pedal note reappears at the end as we reach our destination.
Let us light a candle (solo version 2005) Words and music by June Clark
During a Nine Lessons and Carols Service in St.Albans Cathedral in 1965 this carol was inspired by a fanciful vision of the red-cassocked choirboys with their lighted candles processing beyond the door of the cathedral and continuing on and on until they reached the stable in Bethlehem. ‘Let us light a candle to the Christ Child, that its light may guide us to Bethlehem’. The carol was completed during the small hours of the following morning.
The little road to Bethlehem: Words by Margaret Rose and music by Michael Head (1900-1976)
Though inspired by lambs in a field in Essex at sunset, these words take us to sunset over Bethlehem. The setting by Michael Head is calm and peaceful on the outer verses, blossoming into a wonderful golden glow in the verse ‘Your Star of gold is shining in the sky’. The piano accompaniment provides a gentle rocking lullaby beneath.
Away in a Manger: Traditional Normandy tune arranged by June Clark
This well-known tune has been given a new dressing with the addition of a flowing countermelody in the accompaniment for the first and third verses, whilst the middle verse is given new harmonies.
Of these four letters :Words by G.R.Woodward, arranged by June Clark
The traditional English melody of this little known carol, is known also as Johnny Faa, or Gypsy Laddie. The song begins by quoting each letter M.A.R.Y. and then tells the story of Mary, the Annunciation and the birth of her Son. Each English phrase is interspersed with Latin text.
I saw three ships : Words and tune English traditional, arranged by June Clark
Six verses of the original nine have been included. The three ships of the desert, the undulating camels, are suggested by the rhythm of the piano accompaniment, with the addition of a sharpened 4th for discomfort. Towards the end the Christmas bells appear in the piano accompaniment, and the voice expands to give a bravura ending.
Whence is that goodly fragrance flowing? :Traditional French, words translated by A.B.Ramsay, arranged by June Clark
The translation has been most sensitively achieved, and the evocative French tune lends itself to a rich transcription with lush harmonies, in this somewhat romantic conception. Only three of the original four verses have been set (the fourth in praise seeming superfluous) in order to preserve the quiet sense of awe until the end of the piece.
Simple Gifts: Tune and words composed by Joseph Brackett (1797-1882)
The Shaker Community began in Manchester in 1747, eventually reaching America in 1774. The song shows an element of the dance, as do many Shaker tunes, and begins with solo voice, with the accompaniment evolving into a simple counter melody at the third verse. Its inclusion in the season of Christmas identifies with the gift of God in the birth of his Son.
I wonder as I wander out under the sky :Traditional Appalachian carol, arranged by June Clark
It begins as if the singer were ‘out under the sky’ and all alone on the quiet Mountains. The accompaniment steals in softly at verse 2, blossoming into verse 3, with a big climax at ‘’cause he was the King’. The carol ends as it began, the singer alone with his thoughts drifting away to the far horizon.
The Coventry Carol: Original tune 1591, words by Robert Croo (1534)
This tune appeared in the Coventry Miracle plays in about 1584. It is the song of the Innocents, sung by the women of Bethlehem, just before the slaughter of their children by Herod’s soldiers. It begins and ends with the solo voice singing the refrain, while verses 1 and 3 have a bare accompaniment, and chords support the middle verse. There is a poignant clash between the melody and the harmony on ‘By by’, intensifying the pain of the Innocents.
Silent Night: Music by Franz Gruber: words by Joseph Mohr, arranged by June Clark
Gruber, whilst deputy organist in 1818 at St.Nicola’s Church in Oberndorf, composed the carol ‘Stille Nacht, Heilige Nacht’ for Christmas Eve. It has since been translated into over three hundred languages and its message of heavenly peace continues to encircle the globe. This new arrangement highlights this message with its quiet stillness at the opening and the ending, whilst blossoming into joy in the centre.
Cantique de Noel (O Holy Night): Words by Placide Clappeau (translated from French by J. Sullivan Dwight) music by Adolphe Adam (1803-1856)
The words of this famous Christmas song were composed during a journey from Roquemaure to Paris, and the finished carol was first sung at the Christmas Eve Mass in Roquemaure in 1847. Since then its appeal has spread worldwide. Romantic in its conception it is quite a ‘tour de force’ for the singer. Two out of its three long verses have been used.
Ding Dong Merrily on high: Words by G.R.Woodward, arranged by June Clark
The sixteenth century French tune is given a new lease of life. It begins with some bell ringing (on the piano), assisted by the voice. The bells then become the basis for the accompaniment, taking the form of chimes and peals, yet also using syncopation to good effect.
We wish you a Merry Christmas :Traditional West Country Carol, arranged by June Clark
Not quite a Viennese waltz, this new arrangement dances along at great pace. Spiced up with some chromatic harmonies, the voice resorts to a counter melody in verse 4, driving on to final unrestrained jollity, almost daring us not to have a Merry Christmas.
The Christmas Song: Words and music by Robert Wells & Mel Torme (1925-1999)
Mel Torme was himself a singer and this ever-popular song from the big-band era of the 1940s is a gem of the period, bringing to life a picture of a traditional Christmas celebration. ‘Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose’ says the lyric.
White Christmas: Music and words by Irving Berlin (1888-1989)
Composed originally for the film ‘Holiday Inn’ this Christmas song became famous not only amongst the film going public but also with soldiers serving in the forces during the Second World War. The song was also featured in a later film called ‘White Christmas’ when many can remember those wonderful red velvet costumes
with white fur trimmings.


I cancelled Matins today due to the weather conditions. You can use our Congregation @ Prayer sheet for your devotion, and read today’s assigned reading in your Bible. Note: yesterday (Nov. 9th) I read for Matins the assigned readings for Nov. 8th. That day was the commemoration of Johannes Staupitz. The 9th, however, was the commemoration of Martin Chemnitz, one of the authors of our Lutheran Confessions. Read (below) about this hugely important man.
Peace in Christ,
Martin Chemnitz (1522-1586) is regarded after Martin Luther as the most important theologian in the history of the Lutheran Church. Chemnitz combined a penetrating intellect and an almost encyclopedic knowledge of Scripture and the church fathers with a genuine love for the church. When various doctrinal disagreements broke out after Luther’s death in 1546, Chemnitz determined to give himself fully to the restoration of unity in the Lutheran Church. He became the leading spirit and principal author of the 1577 Formula of Concord, which settled the doctrinal disputes on the basis of the Scriptures and largely succeeded in restoring unity among Lutherans. Chemnitz also authored the four volume Examination of the Council of Trent (1565-1573), in which he rigorously subjected the teachings of this Roman Catholic Council to the judgment of Scripture and the ancient church fathers. The Examination became the definitive Lutheran answer to the Council of Trent, as well as a thorough exposition of the faith of the Augsburg Confession. A theologian and a churchman, Chemnitz was truly a gift of God to the Church.


16 Apr How To Help Your Child Love Reading
There are many things that you as a parent can do to help your child love reading. One thing is to make sure that your child has regular access to books in a variety of styles and authors. Another trick is to have a nice quiet, distraction free place to read. Check out this blog post and find out why reading is so important and how you can foster your child's love for reading.
It is no secret that many children today do not enjoy reading as much as they should. There are many exciting and tempting entertainment options such as games, phones, tablets, TV etc that make books seem boring. A lack of reading skill can lead to problems later on in their schooling, and in their lives in general. However, there are things that parents can do to help their children love reading. One thing that parents can do is to make sure that their children have regular access to books. This means having a consistent place for them to read, whether it is a quiet corner in their room or a cozy spot in the living room. Reading is incredibly important for a child’s development, so why should parents try to get their child to read more?

Why parents should encourage their kids to read more often
Reading is a fundamental skill that helps children in multiple ways. It develops their imagination, improves their critical thinking skills, and increases their vocabulary. Furthermore, reading regularly can help improve a child’s focus and concentration. Studies have consistently shown that students who read often tend to perform better academically than those who do not. Therefore, even though reading is difficult at first and even though their might be exciting alternatives like watching TV, it is important for parents to encourage their children to read more often. I’ve written a blog post on all the benefits of reading, check it out here.
8 Ways to get your child interested in reading
- Make sure that there are plenty of books available for them to choose from. A variety of genres, authors, and illustrators will help keep them interested. Books don’t have to be expensive, many people give away used books on various social media trading platforms.
- Read aloud to your child every day. This will help them develop a love for books and a desire to read on their own. Children love all activities with their parents and will look forward to this shared experience.
- Regularly visit the library and let your child choose their own books to bring home. You can discuss which books they like and why. This shows your child that you are interested in their tastes and opinions.
- Spark your child’s interest by buying them age-appropriate books as gifts. You can also request books as presents from family and friends.
- Let your child choose their own reading material, especially early on. Even if they want to read the same story over and over, that’s ok. Remember that it’s a great idea to discuss why children want to read a certain book. You can slowly introduce new types of material. You can do this by first suggesting similar books to the ones they like.
- Encourage your child to read before bedtime and make it a special time for just the two of you. You can bring stories to life by each role playing different characters and imagining what they would say or do in certain scenarios.
- Let your child see you reading as well, children love to copy their parents this is the primary way that they learn how to behave. So setting a good example and a routine will be very effective. A good activity is family reading time, each family member reads their own book at a set regular time. You can add to this activity by each discussing something interesting about your book.
- Most importantly, be patient and never give up on your child. They may not love reading right away, this is because it takes a lot of mental energy to read. However as they become more skilled they will continue to improve.
A final important point
Communication around reading is also extremely important. Make sure that you, as a parent are excited about reading and what’s in the books you read. Also make sure to be excited and enthusiastic about shared reading experiences. Your child will pick up and learn from your attitude and energy towards reading more than the actual words you say.
Reading is a vital life skill that children need to be successful in school and in their future careers. As a parent, you can help your child develop a love for reading by making sure there are plenty of books available, reading aloud to them regularly, and showing that reading is an exciting way to hear stories visiting the library often. You can use shared reading activities as a bonding experience too!


Brendan Butler’s search for the historical, human Jesus of Nazareth has led to the writing of this book. In it, Jesus of Nazareth is presented in a human way as he faced very decisive Gospel events of his life.
“The aim of this book is to renew a conversation about the humanity of the historical Jesus of Nazareth within our contemporary society.”
“For the first time in two thousand years this is the inside story of the life and death of Jesus of Nazareth as told by himself. A brilliant idea executed with finesse by Brendan Butler. This is a page-turning book which will truly change your understanding and appreciation of Christianity.”
John Cooney, Historian and Religious Affairs Journalist
“My Story by Jesus of Nazareth is by Brendan Butler, an influential lay theologian, with years of experience as a teacher and campaigner for social justice. It is deceptively simple but, in the best sense of the word, is delightfully shocking. If you think the story of Jesus is old hat, take an hour to read this book and change your life forever for the better.”
Fr Brian Darcy, The Sunday World
“Every generation needs to look intently at the story it has inherited about one of history’s most influential characters, Jesus of Nazareth. He is the subject of countless books, articles, poems, paintings, sculptures, music and of course speculation. Brendan Butler speculates here in order to open up an accessible debate on the relevance of Christ to contemporary debates. He makes an interesting case for retrieving Jesus from vested interests and layers of obscuring dust.”
Dr. Mary McAleese, Past President of Ireland.
“An ambitious new book written by Malahide author Brendan Butler gives a fresh perspective on the story of Jesus Christ by offering its own unique interpretation of ‘the greatest story ever told.”
Ken Phelan, Fingal Independent

Recently I attended a nice webinar entitled “Essential Agile Business Analysis” organized by IIBA with speakers Ellen Gottesdiener and Mary Gorman. During the webinar there was a twitter contest which I had the luck to win 🙂 The prize was the new book authored by Mary and Ellen: “Discover to Deliver: Agile Product Planning & Analysis” (which promises to provide essential practices for rapid discovery of product needs).
Less than a week after that my prize arrived in good quality (unbelievably quick delivery from USA to Europe/Sofia). The book is about 250 pages, really high-quality paper, very well structured. (Details about the contents can be found on book’s site).
So, today I’m starting to read this book. I’ll come back later to share what I’ve learnt from the book.


Mondale Collection. Gale Family Library W. Home How Do I? To search just Death Records in either system, there are two options:.
Online Database Search
Enter your search term in Term box, located under the "Your Search" heading in the left-hand column. First, middle, and last name of the individual; date of death; county of death; and certificate number. The two most crucial pieces of information are the year of death and the certificate number because they will help you find the record on microfilm.
Anything missing from the original record will not appear in the index. Q: Which Death Records are included in the search? Note: Minnesota law required the recording of deaths beginning in , but compliance and enforcement was sporadic during the early years. Many counties were not formed until after , so deaths occurring in what became those counties may be recorded in parent counties. Q: How are the early death cards to different from later death certificates? Death certificates are filed out at or just after the time of death, usually by a physician or medical examiner with the help of an informant usually a spouse or other family member.
Death cards are transcripts of death information that were compiled at a later time by the Minnesota Department of Health.
The cards cover the whole state, but they are not complete and are not considered official documents. You can see an example of a death card here.
- Obtaining Certificates.
- minnesota association of criminal defense lawyer!
- california law divorce with sick wife;
Unlike death certificates, many death cards were filled out very incompletely. Cards, especially for the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, frequently contain little more information than the name of the decedent, date of death, sex, marital status, birthplace, cause of death, and person reporting the death.
The Facts of Life: Vital Records
Information about the death may include: date of death; primary and contributing causes of death; duration of the primary and contributing causes of death; signature and address of the physician; former residence if death occurred away from home; place of death; burial place and date; signature and address of undertaker; date when the certificate was filed; and signature of the local registrar. Not all of this information will be on every death certificate because the forms were not always complete. You can see examples of death certificates here.
Q: The cause of death on a certificate is unfamiliar to me. How can I figure out what it means? The terms from more recent certificates can usually be deciphered with a basic web search, but earlier death records often used abbreviations and medical terms that are now outdated for illnesses. When someone died, a physician or mortician compiled information about the deceased on a death certificate. The certificate was registered with the local county registrar and the original copy was sent to the Office of Vital Statistics, Minnesota Department of Health. At that point, the death certificate at the Department of Health became the official, permanent record.
Soundex is an indexing system based on how a surname sounds rather than how it is spelled, so it enables one-step searching for variant spellings of a names. SoundEx is based on the first letter of the last name, so it is crucial that this letter is known and has been correctly transcribed from documents.
Our search systems have SoundEx filtering capability, but it is important to note that this is NOT the same as a straight-forward SoundEx search in other systems. Q: Are there any special tips for finding death certificates for American Indians?

The Poverty of Fictional Storytelling in Mainstream Economics
Lars P. Syll
Where to buy this book
“No one does more than Lars Syll to identify and communicate the limitations of modern economics. An impassioned call and compelling sustained argument for economists to stop dwelling on the intricacies of irrelevant models and concern themselves with rest of the social reality.”
Tony Lawson, Cambridge University
"Lars Syll’s new book gets to the heart of what’s methodologically wrong with mainstream economics and maps out foundations for a critical realist economics."
John Davis, University of Amsterdam, and Marquette University
"This is a wonderful book. From the perspective of Critical Realism, it offers a comprehensive and powerful critique of the praxis and methodology of mainstream economics. In a clear and well-argued text, all the main failures and biases of mainstream methodology of economics are carefully analyzed and refuted. It also explains why economics, if it is to become a real science, it must engage with economic reality as an open system."
Gustavo Marqués, University of Buenos Aires
"This is a timely update of the debate of methodological issues in economics. It demonstrates that despite 30 years of critical-realist critiquing, little if anything with regard to economic methodology has changed in mainstream models and textbooks, with the consequence that mainstream economists have been unable to predict or explain the major economic crises of the 21st century."
Jesper Jespersen, Roskilde University, Denmark


At last, I have achieved a version of the Router pattern that I am happy with and addresses the problems I intended to solve when I started.
Remove navigation specific APIs from SwiftUI views.
Prevent views from knowing about other views and how to build them.
Shield views from knowing how other views are navigated to.
I've open sourced my library, called Routing, on Github. It is the result of all the exploratory work and iterations I made in previous posts:
Removing navigation APIs from SwiftUI views
The first step was figuring out how to remove any SwiftUI navigation code out of my views. To solve this I created a RoutingView that acts as a wrapper for the view hierarchy.
It contains the SwiftUI navigation APIs for stack navigation, sheet presentation, and full screen cover presentation.
Additionally, it is responsible for creating the Router instance that gets injected into the root view.
Moving navigation logic to the Router
The Router object is responsible for acting as the gateway to navigation for individual views. It contains the @Publshed properties that the RoutingView observes to trigger the appropriate navigation action.
All views have to do is call the routeTo(_) method and the Router will do the rest. It hides how views are created and navigated to (ie: via navigation stack, sheet, full screen cover).
The object also provides other useful methods for manipulating the navigation stack and dismissing screens programmatically.
Finally, the Routable protocol was created to allow implementers to handle specific view creation as well as declare how views should be navigated to. As a result, this removes the previous dependency the Router had on the view code, which existed because the Router had to know how to build views.
The Routing library has no dependency on any outside code, making it perfect for modularized code bases.
I have enjoyed building this little library and plan on continuing to improve it. If you have any suggestions for improvement or wish to contribute, please do not hesitate to do so by either contributing directly to the Github repository or by contacting me via my contact form.

I’ll Seize the Day Tomorrow is the story of Jonathan Goldstein’s journey to find some great truth on his road to forty. In a series of wonderfully funny stories, the host of CBC’s WireTap recounts the highs and lows of his last year in his thirties. Throughout the year, Goldstein asks weighty questions that would stump a person less seasoned. For example: What is it about a McRib that drives people crazy? Can we replace extending an olive leaf with extending an olive jar? How much wisdom can we glean from episodes of Welcome Back, Kotter? His friends and family, many of them known through their appearances on WireTap, weigh in with hilarious results as Goldstein eats, sleeps, and watches bad TV all the way to his date with destiny.
Volume VII of the Cambridge History of American Literature examines a broad range of American literature of the past half-century, revealing complex relations to changes in society. Christopher Bigsby discusses American dramatists from Tennessee Williams to August Wilson, showing how innovations in theatre anticipated a world of emerging countercultures and provided America with an alternative view of contemporary life. Morris Dickstein describes the condition of rebellion in fiction from 1940 to 1970, linking writers as diverse as James Baldwin and John Updike. John Burt examines writers of the American South, describing the tensions between modernization and continued entanglements with the past. Wendy Steiner examines the postmodern fictions since 1970, and shows how the questioning of artistic assumptions has broadened the canon of American literature. Finally, Cyrus Patell highlights the voices of Native American, Asian American, Chicano, gay and lesbian writers, often marginalized but here discussed within and against a broad set of national traditions.
Travel is always a blissful feel. What if the poems, short stories or prose will gives an extra special when you get travelled. For every destination, there is a poem, there is a story to tell. This open themed book comprises more tales and verses every destination the traveler cross.
Based upon the autumn 1984 issue of Studies in the Literary Imagination, this volume retains some earlier essays and adds new examinations of the entire oeuvre of Bellow. There are essays by recognized scholars as well as several by emerging Bellow scholars. As a continuing examination of a living writer, this collection will serve to address questions that the volume editor has determined are of most importance. Eugene Hollahan has written, wherever Bellow's philosophical development has led him, we must look at his latest novel to discover that position.
The legendary author’s essays and interviews explore how fellow writers from Milan Kundera to Edna O’Brien are influenced by time, place, and politics. Writers are often deeply influenced by the time and place in which they live and write. In Shop Talk, Philip Roth, winner of a National Book Award, a Pulitzer Prize, and numerous other literary honors, explores the intimate relationship a writer’s experience has with his or her work. In a series of essays, Roth recounts his intellectual encounters with writers, discussing with them the diverse regions from which they hail and pondering the influence of locale, politics, and history on their work. Featuring luminaries such as Milan Kundera discussing Czechoslovakia; Primo Levi talking about Auschwitz; Edna O’Brien reflecting on Ireland; Isaac Bashevis Singer tackling Warsaw; Aharon Appelfeld on Bukovina; and Ivan Klíma on Prague, Roth’s conversations touch on the conditions that inspire great art, with artists as attuned to the subtleties of their societies as they are the nuances of words. Also including a portrait of Bernard Malamud, a written exchange with Mary McCarthy about Roth’s The Counterlife, and the essay “Rereading Saul Bellow,” Shop Talk is a “fascinating [glimpse] of some of the deans of postwar literature” (Los Angeles Times Book Review).

6/1`/2015 Controversy Continues over Kite Runner and Parental Rights http://ymlp.com/zLOPBP
In addition, school population declining yet more schools to be built?? Where's your tax money going??
Controversy Surrounds Buncombe County School's book, The Kite Runner. Is profanity, rape, violence against women and children appropriate reading material in our schools? What happened to reading the classics? Parents need to weigh in. Admin process for informing parents also at issue. Find out the facts. Take action.
Thanks, Pam. I asked for a compromise - that the class continue to read All Quiet on the Western Front as they have been doing and read excerpts from other books (and even the Kite Runner) about Afghanistan to enrich their experience. Why not compare WWI soldiers' experience with those in modern wars?
Would you send in your paragraph as a letter to the editor?
Just in time for the Mother's Day paper, John Boyle decided to mislead the public once again and demonize me in the process: http://www.citizen-times.com/

Besides, when an HS English teacher doesn’t know enough grammar to avoid using a preposition to end a sentence in the written word, I find myself not trusting her expertise.

5/1/2015: Controversial new book in Buncombe: No transparency and no answers.
Lady Liberty 1885 blog post with analysis: http://ladyliberty1885.com/
It boils down to 2 issues:
- Common Core English Language Arts standards are set too low; removing time-honored classic literature from high school English classes erodes high academic standards.
- Violations of parental rights/bullying - parents had no input into the book chosen, no permission slip (or opt-in form) was sent home due to the mature adult content (and curriculum change), only partial disclosure of the sexual and violent content. The Reynolds principal's act of sending my objection to the Asheville Citizen-Times amounts to parent bullying; Saul Alinsky's Rule number 13: "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." She has sent the message that if parents question classroom materials, you will be demonized.

Subject: Re: Controversial English Honors II book, The Kite Runner
To: Doris sellers <firstname.lastname@example.org>
Cc: Brooke Bowman <email@example.com>, Eric Grant <firstname.lastname@example.org>, Susanne swanger <email@example.com>
- a revised form, asking for parents' permission for their child to read the book (opt-in form), and
- full disclosure of the reading level (grade 6.8), the name of the 9th grade reading level book being replaced (All Quiet on the Western Front) or give parents a choice (All Quiet on the Western Front or The Kite Runner); include The Kite Runner's graphic descriptions of extreme cruelty and violence, including more than one episode of the homosexual rape of children. The Kite Runner also includes profanity demeaning to women, murder, beatings and a suicide attempt. Let parents know this is an adult book, not a young adult book.
Ms. Sellers, Ms. Bowman and Mr. Grant,Thank you for listening to my concerns.I hope we can reach a resolution by Friday. Here is a summary of the meeting. Please send me any corrections/clarifications.Also, please send me a list of the members of the MTAC committtee that approved The Kite Runner, identifying the which members are parents (not BCS employees) on the committee.Present at the 3:15pm meeting were the A.C. Reynolds High School principal, 10th grade Honors English teacher, Ms. Brooke Bowman, and Eric Grant, the BCS ELA Specialist.1. Why was the book, The Kite Runner, chosen? For the setting in Afghanistan; content relevant to today; part of the standards.2. Who chose the book? 10th grade honors English teachers, Ms. Latini and Ms. Bowman, chose to use A 1000 Splendid Suns (Latini) and The Kite Runner (Bowman), respectively. The two classes will come together to discuss the two books during an enrichment period.3. It was explained that the books were on the "approved list". I asked where the list came from? The MTAC committee decides what is "approved". I asked if there were any parents on the MTAC committee and no one knew the answer.3. I made the point of the book's 6.8th grade reading level and thus its inappropriateness for a 10th grade Honors English Class. The teacher said that the content was important. Cross-curricular plans have been made with the AP World History class.4. I also made the point that the book includes graphic descriptions of extreme cruelty and violence, including homosexual rape. (Also includes murder, beatings and a suicide attempt.) I asked the principal to explain to me what the word "cunt" on page 7 meant as an example of the crass language in the book. She did; I had to look it up on-line (According to Wikipedia, "Scholar Germaine Greer said in 2006 that cunt "is one of the few remaining words in the English language with a genuine power to shock."5. Another point I made was that this normalizes abnormal behaviors and desensitizes teens. Of course, the argument was made was that this was reality. (This is a fiction novel.)6. Apparently, this book is taking the place of the 9th grade reading level book, All Quiet on the Western Front. This will be the book my son reads as an alternative. (It is written on a 9th grade reading level.)7. The teacher said she would draw Will and his book into the discussions.8. I said I didn't want Will in the discussions of the other book. I would like him to be separate and have a certified ELA teacher.9. I expressed that Will reads Dostoevsky and Solzhenitsyn and I expect classical literature to be taught in his Honors English class.10. The teacher mentioned that there is "language" in All Quiet on the Western Front; I will look into this.11. I expressed my disappointment and even called it a "black mark on Reynolds HS" to read this book. I also explained that I was unhappy with the opt-out form; it should be an opt-in or permission form. Inevitably, there will be parents who never see the form. The principal said she would bring up the form at her next principals' meeting.12. What I didn't mention was the racism in the book. My concern is how the discussion on this topic will be guided in light of riots in Ferguson and Baltimore.Extra: After the meeting, I found an interesting review by Cath Murphy, review editor at LitReactor.com: "This is the reason The Kite Runner became so popular. It’s not the boys or the kites or the satisfying yet overworked theme of betrayal and redemption. If this book had been set in Greece, or Brooklyn, or Iceland, there is no way in a month of Sundays it would have become required freshman reading and graced the reading lists of High Schools. The Kite Runner caught the popular imagination because it allowed us to learn about one of the world’s troubled places, discover that the Taliban really are a bunch of bad guys, learn a little Farsi, and do it all from the safety of our own armchairs....Far from being the saving grace of The Kite Runner, Afghanistan is its fatal flaw. The book played a cruel trick on us: it allowed us to feel we were learning something about a tragedy, when really it was presenting us with a revisionist view of history..."

Format: 3 screen DVD work, silent
Duration: 23.48 min
Technical Spec: 3 pioneer DVD players, 3 projectors, syncing device
‘Persistent vision’ - a film term for the production of moving images from still pictures. The process of creating a moving image is dependent upon the eye/brains persistence of vision, whereby the memory of the image is retained by the viewer.
Made from donated Super 8 material held by the Empire & Commonwealth Museum archives (UK), the project questions the construction of history and collective memory through the medium of film.
3 large floating screens, carry waves, rhythms, abrupt cuts, repeats and simultaneous images, moving back and forth, competing for attention, or providing harmonious vistas of complimentarity e.g. image of landscape or soldiers marching. The editing provides fluctuating experiences of ease and dis-ease, consumption and comprehension, disruption and disjointedness. This is further compounded by the materiality of film, its quality, showing of age, processes of replication, reproduction, failing, faltering, and disintegrating images. The work is mostly experiences without a sound track, in keeping with the mode of an interpretive space, which the work seeks, however there have also been versions of the work where this interpretive space has been disrupted by the inclusion of a response to the work. In 2006 a live soundtrack was played alongside the installation by the REMIX Youth Music Group in Bristol. Further collections of responses and interpretations of the work are currently being made.
Persistent Visions was made to create an interpretive space, a work in which the activation of the audience was key to knowledge production. Each showing is seen as a new iteration of the work. Most recently it was screened in Hong Kong to an audience who created a live sound track to the work as it played. Previously it has been shown within the NUS Museum spaces as a strategy used by the curators to activate new ways of thinking about the permanent collections already on display and the practices of museums to impart and construct knowledge. It was also instrumental in a series of south East Asian University museum conferences in which the invited speakers and audience, all museum curators used the work as an in-road to discussing contemporary museuological practices in Asia. Prior to this the work has had several appearances in the UK, Germany, Canada. In the UK there have also been attached projects where responsive sound tracks were developed for the work by specific audiences.

Reviews of this DVD:
In this totally practical and immediately useful DVD, Dr. Wei Liu provides a means for restoring intention (Li) to the practice of needling which focuses on the feedback loop created between the acupuncturist and the patient. In this loop, the achievement of DeQi revolves around tonifying and reducing techniques stressed in the Ling Shu but often ignored in western practice as many practititoners opt for neutral stimulation.
There is nothing neutral in Dr. Liu's masterful manipulation techniques. It is my hope that this DVD will spark a revival of interest in the science and the discipline of focused needling technique as a central factor in effective acupuncture treatment, both in the training of students and in their lifelong relationship with needles and fire.

Dr. Liu has opened a doorway to a dimension of acupuncture experience that few Western practitioners have had the opportunity to explore: the art of needle manipulation. This DVD is a powerful self-training tool that provides demonstrations of numerous techniques, both classical and modern, from the simplest to the most complex, all vividly demonstrated by a master practitioner.

Dr. David C. Lachman (27 October, 1939 - 27 August, 2023) went to be with the Lord at the age of 83, after a period of slow decline beginning in 2018. He died peacefully in his own bed at his home of 41 years in Wyncote, PA, surrounded by his wife and three children. He is survived by his wife of 51 years, three children, and 12 grandchildren, his sister and brother, and relatives.
David was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to the late Charles Jr. and Anna E. Lachman. He was the oldest of their three children. His parents moved out of the city to North Hills when he was two. Apart from his periods of study in upstate NY and Scotland, a brief stay in L’abri, and a lengthy overland trip from Switzerland to Singapore and back, he lived in the Philadelphia area his whole life, turning down teaching opportunities in other parts of the world to stay near and care for his much beloved widowed mother.
David was an academic and a highly respected scholar in the field of Scottish church history. He obtained a B.A. at Houghton College, a B.D. and Th.M from Westminster Seminary, a M.A. from the University of Pennsylvania, and a Ph.D. from the University of St. Andrews. His painstakingly researched dissertation on the Marrow Controversy was the first scholarly treatment of the subject and remains the definitive work on it. He was a skilled editor, which combined with his expertise in Scottish Church History, led him to become an editor of the Dictionary of Scottish Church History and Theology and Worship in the Presence of God, as well as many smaller projects. He wrote scholarly introductions to a number of modern reprints of old Scottish Presbyterian works.
David was a committed Bible-believing Christian, having been led to the Lord by his Grandma Lachman at the age of six. He was firmly committed to “the love of the truth” (2 Thessalonians 2:10). Inspired by men such as J. Gresham Machen, John Bunyan, and David Hay Fleming (a careful historian), he aimed to emulate them in standing valiantly for Biblical principles (1 Thessalonians 5:21). After careful and protracted study, he was principled and consistent in resolutely holding fast to what he understood the Bible says is true and right.
He was an elder in the Presbyterian Church in America for many years, and cared for the weakest and most vulnerable in his local congregation. He served as parliamentarian of the Philadelphia presbytery, and faithfully attended the General Assembly virtually every year. As moderator of the Presbytery, his reputation was one of meticulous even-handed leadership, such that no one could discern his personal opinion on the topic at hand. His zeal for truth and righteousness led him to take the role of editor of the Presbyterian Advocate, a whistleblower magazine seeking reform in the church. It also contributed to his zeal to see the best old books put into the hands of Christ’s people, by recommendations for study, selling antiquarian editions, and encouraging the republication of quality theological works.
David was an antiquarian theological bookseller, as he often said “specializing in books printed before 1700.” He started selling books while studying in Scotland, when he realized that if he could sell one book for a profit, he could buy several more for his own library and to support his growing family in the process. While he was a bookseller, he was always a book buyer - a treasure hunter and preserver of history - who sold so that he could search for more good books to collect! On his return from Scotland, he taught part-time at Westminster Theological Seminary for a brief period, but soon turned to full-time bookselling, as he disliked academic politics. He built up his business from nothing by diligent hard work. Over more than 30 years and countless trips to the UK, he transported innumerable books across the pond from Great Britain to the USA. In a quiet, behind the scenes way, the books he sold, combined with his deep knowledge of church history and love for the Lord, impacted countless ministers, theologians, book publishers, seminaries, and professors on a personal, spiritual, and academic level.
His business dealings brought out his godly character, as he was scrupulously honest in his treatment of his customers. He tried to set fair prices for his stock and would never intentionally sell anything for more than it was worth. He would often sell a book on commission instead of buying it, to get the most he could for his customer. He was righteously indignant at dealers who would cheat customers and had a special heart for generous treatment of widows, many of whom turned to him to sell their husband’s libraries. Over decades this earned him a sterling reputation for being trustworthy, as he exhibited the fruit of the spirit (Gal 5:22-23) in all his dealings.
David was also a family man and a good friend to many. He was committed to caring for his mother in her old age. His children were deeply influenced by his commitment to family worship and faithfulness to the church. They fondly remember going on many business trips all over the USA as a family and individually to the UK. His house was always open, and he often invited his customers to the home and always allowed his children to sit, listen, and talk to them (often deep into the night), which led them to have friendships with many of those who came. Often the lines were entirely blurred between customer, ecclesiastical colleague, and dear friend.
All are invited to his funeral service on Friday, 1 September, at 6:30PM (EST) at Christ Covenant Presbyterian Church, 220 E Norristown Rd, Warminster, PA 18974. It will be live streamed at https://www.facebook.com/ChristCovenantPresbyterianChurch.

Attorney Land Surveyor Author
This web site is primarily about my writing interests including the books that I have published and future writing projects.
My first book on Land Surveying was entitled "Fundamentals of Boundary Surveying - How Boundaries Are Established". It was published in 2002. The primary purpose of the book was to provide a non-mathematical description of land surveying. The profession of boundary surveying is often 10% technical and 90% legal. The intended market for the book included not only land surveyors but just about anyone who wanted to know more about how property boundaries were established. The book is now out of print but used copies are sometimes available for purchase online.
I wrote "Practical Boundary Surveying" in 2014. It is an updated version the prior book "Fundamentals of Land Surveying". The new book was published by Springer International Publishing beginning in 2015. This book is a larger and more comprehensive version of the previous work. The book has an appendix containing mathematics used by surveyors. Although Springer sells the book as a text book for land surveying students at the college level the book would also be very useful for professionals outside of the surveying profession such as engineers, attorneys, planners, architects and other real estate professionals. Click on the image to view sample chapters at the Springer web site.
A recent book on land surveying is entitled "Land Surveying Simplified". In some ways it is a return to my original compact, concise and easy to understand book written primarily for people who are not surveyors. My goal was to create a book that was both inexpensive and easy to read. It is available on Lulu in both hard copy and as an eBook. Although the book has only been available since the summer of 2016 it has done very well. As an eBook it sells for only $9.99. A second enlarged and updated edition was published on KIndle in 2021. Click on the book image below to learn more about the book.
In 1985 I became interested in the history of a local mill that used water power to grind corn into Jonny Cake Meal. For readers who have not grown up in New England, Jonny Cakes are like pancakes but they are made from corn meal not wheat flour. Gray's Mill has been in operation since at least 1751 and it still grinds Jonny Cake meal from flint corn. The short book contains a description of the mill and what is known about its history. The book includes scale drawings of the mill and the machinery. Clicking on the image will take you to the book.
I have always been interested in fiction and have particularly enjoyed humorous fiction. I had some time on my hands while spending a winter in northern Florida a few years ago so I decided to write a short story. The book, entitled Sidney, is the first in a series of humorous adventures which take place on the New England coast during the energy crisis of the late 1970s. The book is available as an eBook from Lulu. It can be downloaded free. I am hoping to add more chapters soon.
My most recent book is a titled Land Surveying Mathematics Simplified. It was written as a companion book to Land Surveying Simplified. The book is intended to introduce readers to the basic mathematical concepts and equations commonly used by boundary surveyors. It covers angles and bearings, basic trigonometry, coordinate geometry, traverse adjustment, area calculations, and road layout calculations. There are many examples included in the book. The presentation is straightforward. The book assumes that the reader has no background in the topics covered but it assumes a background in basic algebra (mostly knowing how to rearrange simple equations). The book is available online in softcover or as an eBook. The book is inexpensively priced the same as Land Surveying Simplified. A new updated second edition was publised with Kindle in 2021. Click on the image below to learn more about the book.
A few years ago I developed a course on Wind Power Technology for Bristol Community College in Fall River, MA. The course was funded with a grant from the National Science Foundation. I had some difficultly in finding a text book at the level I was looking for. There were several excellent text books available but they tended to be a bit too technical for the level of course that I needed to develop. I wanted something that contained the necessary equations but not something that was too rigorous for a college level single semester introductory course. In the end I decided to write most of the materials myself. This book on wind turbine aerodynamics draws materials from my course. It is technologically a mid level book which anyone with a modest background in mathematics should be able to understand. It is the first book in a series on wind turbine design. I am presently working on the second book in the series which will cover electricity and electrical power generation.
I published "Boundary Surveying in the Metes and Bounds States" in 2021 through Kindle as a paperback only. This book provides an overview of boundary surveying in the metes and bounds states of the U.S. The focus is on legal issues facing land surveyors when performing boundary surveys. The book is the result of a college level course on the legal aspects of boundary surveying taught by the author. The focus is Massachusetts and Rhode Island but the materials presented are applicable to other states in the U.S. that do not use the Public Land Survey System. This includes most of the states east of the Mississippi River, Texas and Hawaii.Topics include legal concepts affecting real property, the judicial system, statutes and case law, evidence, deeds, plans and recording systems, monuments, calculations, reconciling record and physical evidence, water boundaries, drawing plans, adverse possession, easements, contracts and professional practice. The book assumes that the reader has a basic understanding of the technical aspects of boundary surveying but the materials are presented in an easy to understand manner using plain language. The book starts with a brief review of some of the technical aspects of boundary surveying so even readers with a minimum amount of surveying experience should be able to take advantage of the materials in the book. The book contains 380 pages.
I would love to hear from about surveying, writing or any comments or ideas that you may have about this website. Please use the form below to get in touch with me and I will do my best to get back to you as soon as I can.


Roy is the author of The Race, an acclaimed middle-grade novel published by Cranachan in 2021, Between Darkness and Light, a literary novel about the Chinese Labour Corps in World War I, and four non-fiction books. When he is not writing, Roy is usually found having fun with his children, looking after a menagerie of pets which he seems to have acquired by mistake, or teaching in a secondary school in Surrey.
As a child, Roy enjoyed collecting football stickers. As an adult, he collects university qualifications. So far, he has apparently important pieces of paper from four different universities and is hoping to add a PhD from a fifth in the not too distant future. He enjoys reading and writing, quite likes 'rithmetic, and is only slightly miffed by the fact that one of his daughters is now a much better unicyclist than he is.
For more on Roy, here is his website.
Praise for The Race:
'An original, immensely readable take on the Eric Liddell story for the 21st century.'
‘Not your typical happily ever after, Roy has written a wonderfully relatable and inclusive tale, where all are welcome, and the beauty of sport brings everyone together in the end. There are life lessons to be learned in this inspiring story with friendship at its heart.’
International Rugby Player and Former Commonwealth Games Athlete


The Vietnam War: How It Affected Rock Music
The Vietnam War was a dark and almost surreal period in American history. From the escalating distrust of authority during the 1950s to the sweeping changes of the 1960s, there was a sense that everything about America needed to change. And then came The Vietnam War. The war dragged on from 1961 until 1975. When it ended, nearly 60,000 Americans and as many as 5 million Vietnamese had been killed. But what really impacted society was how we as a culture responded to this war. There were many artists who spoke out against it (like Joan Baez and Bob Dylan), and music played an important role in shaping people’s perceptions of the conflict. Artists like Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Marvin Gaye produced songs that captured the spirit of their generation while also addressing the horrors of war.
The Vietnam War and Rock Music: A Brief History
The Vietnam War began in the 1950s, when the United States sent military advisors to South Vietnam to help them battle the communist Viet Cong. This conflict was part of a larger Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. The U.S. government viewed the spread of communism as a serious threat and were worried that the Viet Cong would take control of the Southeast Asian nation. The Vietnam War escalated when North Vietnam invaded the South in 1959, prompting the U.S. to send in ground troops. Many American teenagers grew up during this period. The Beatles, who formed in the early 1960s, sent a mixed message in their songs. On one hand, they professed their love of peace. But on the other, their music was so electric and powerful that it was banned by the BBC for being “too likely to promote drug use.” Other artists, such as Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and James Brown, used their music to express their opposition to the war.
The Escalation of the Vietnam War
The Vietnam War was a complex and messy conflict, with no easy or obvious solution. As the war dragged on, it created division in the United States. Many young men were drafted to fight, and many middle-class families were divided over their support of the war. Most young people living in the United States at the time felt that the government had betrayed them. They felt powerless, and they didn’t trust the government’s reasons for fighting the war. There was a growing distrust of authority, and a general feeling of being shut out from the political process. There was also a growing distrust between different segments of society. This was a period of great cultural change in the United States.
In the meanwhile, The United States sent more and more troops, but the guerillas continued to fight. The United States then adopted a new strategy. They dropped millions of tons of bombs, and sprayed millions of gallons of poisonous herbicides all in an effort to destroy the guerillas.
he Vietnam War is sometimes called the first “television war.” Images of helicopters and soldiers in camouflage appeared regularly on news broadcasts, influencing U.S. public opinion on the war. While this type of real-time coverage has become common today, it was a new phenomenon in the 1960s. Television coverage made the war feel immediate and urgent, and it helped stir anti-war sentiment among the American public. The Vietnam War began with U.S. efforts to prevent the country from falling into communist hands. However, the American military presence escalated as the decade progressed. The U.S. government wanted to show its strength against other communist countries, but the conflict soon became bogged down in a guerrilla war that dragged on for years. The U.S. entered a high state of mobilization, and many young men were drafted to fight in Vietnam. The draft became a source of great anger, as many young men felt they were being forced to fight a war they did not believe in. Many vocally opposed the draft, and protests against it peaked in 1968.
Cultural Changes During the Vietnam War
Many of the social and cultural changes that occurred during the Vietnam War were a result of or influenced by the war. Here are some of the most notable examples:
- The Civil Rights Movement
- The war was the backdrop for a number of events that helped to push forward the Civil Rights Movement. Martin Luther King Jr. was jailed for his protests against the war. And the 1968 assassination of MLK led to riots in many American cities.
- Drug Abuse - Many young people used drugs as a way to escape their feelings of helplessness and hopelessness. The use of hallucinogenic drugs like LSD grew dramatically during the 1960s, and heroin use increased among both soldiers and civilians.
- Women’s Rights - The 1960s saw many women break free of social norms and gender restrictions. There was a rise in the number of single-parent families, and more women joined the workforce.
The Vietnam War transformed American culture. A young generation of people who had grown up with a strong sense of hope and optimism now had to deal with the horrors of war. Young people became disillusioned with government authority and with their elders. They questioned the very fabric of American society, including the role of religion, the economy, and the country’s standing in the world. Many believed that society needed to change, and rock music played an important role in bringing about this change. Many young people in the 1960s turned to religion in search of meaning and spirituality, which continued a trend that had started in the 1950s. At the same time, there was a growing distrust of authority and a growing skepticism about the role of religion in society. These two cultural movements came together in the 1960s, and it was reflected in music.
Musicians Speak Out Against the War
Many artists spoke out against the Vietnam War, but three of the most influential were Bob Dylan, Joan Baez and Leonard Cohen. Dylan released the album, "Bringing It All Back Home" in 1965. The cover of the album showed a photo of a young man with a rifle. The back of the album showed a photo of a soldier climbing a ladder with a rifle over his shoulder. The title of the album was a play on the title of the book, "Guns, Germs and Steel," by Jared Diamond. The book discusses the reasons why some societies became rich while others remained poor. Baez and Cohen were also against the war. Baez became an important symbol of the Vietnam War protest movement. She was often photographed with flowers in her hair.
Musicians Go to War
Many musicians created anti-war music. They wanted to make people aware of what was going on. There was a lot of protest music about Vietnam, and it became very political. The artists wanted people to understand why the war was bad. At the same time, rock music was becoming more sophisticated in terms of its lyrics. Musicians were creating songs that were not just about love or other personal issues. They were creating songs that spoke to the times.
There were many musicians who served in the Vietnam War. Some were drafted, while others enlisted to avoid being drafted. Many of them used their music to help them cope with the horrors they saw. Joel Rafael’s “The Ballad of the Green Berets” was one of the most popular songs of the Vietnam War period. The song praised the bravery of American troops, and it expressed Rafael’s support for the war. On the other hand the song “War” was written by Edwin Starr in protest of the Vietnam War. The song included the line “War, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing.” The song became one of the biggest hits of the 1970s.
Some musicians responded to the call to fight in Vietnam. Country musician Johnny Cash served in the U.S. Air Force, and guitarist Buddy Guy enlisted in the army and was stationed in West Germany. Many musicians, though, including members of The Doors, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and The Jefferson Airplane, tried to avoid military service as long as possible. The musicians went to great lengths to prove that they were unfit for duty, even faking mental illness to avoid going to Vietnam. Many musicians and fans felt that musicians did not have the right to fight in a war. The public felt that musicians should be exempt from fighting, because they had a duty to the country through their music.
The music reflected the mood and fears of the era. As the war dragged on, despair, disenchantment, and anger were often reflected in song lyrics. Many rock bands, including Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Doors, and Big Brother and the Holding Company, incorporated sounds of war and helicopters into their music. Some bands, like Creedence Clearwater Revival and The Doors, used their music to urge young people to resist the draft and avoid going to Vietnam. Others, like Johnny Cash, wrote songs that reflected their anger and frustration with the war and the government, such as “The Wall” and “The Viet Nam Blues.”
The Impact of War on Rock Music
The Vietnam War affected rock music in a lot of ways. In the 1950s and early 1960s, rock music was very optimistic. It was about young people creating new and exciting ways of living. Rock music during the Vietnam War was about disillusionment. It was about how life isn’t always fair, and how sometimes we have to accept that life isn’t fair. Rock music during the Vietnam War was angry. It was about how we shouldn’t be in Vietnam and how we should get out of there. Many rock songs from this era are angry because they capture the general feeling of the time. An important part of rock music during the Vietnam War was the way it reflected the feelings of the youth of the time. If the government had asked people to go to war, young people might have gone along. But the government didn’t ask them, so they felt as if they had no choice but to protest the war. Rock music during the Vietnam War allowed young people to voice their feelings, even if they didn’t know exactly what to say.
The Vietnam War was one of the most divisive periods in American history. The music of the time reflected this division, but it also helped to heal it. Music is often used as a form of escapism, and rock music has often been associated with being a form of rebellion against conventions and social norms. This means that many people who are dissatisfied with their lives use rock music as an escape from reality. They use it to distract themselves from their problems and to help them feel empowered against the world.
Besides this, music can also be used as a way to process and express our feelings. It can help us to heal, and it can help bring people together. The music of the Vietnam War can be viewed as a form of cultural therapy. It helped people process their feelings about the war and come together as a nation.


The Eva Kor Teacher Trunk
Welcome to The Eva Kor Teacher Trunk!
The idea behind the unit is to use primary and secondary sources to develop a greater understanding of the Holocaust, including that of Eva Kor’s life story, Mrs. Rosalia Csengeri’s life story (a family friend who survived the Holocaust), and an overview of World War II.
Please use the resources below. Each lesson plan begins with an overview and includes all of the materials necessary for each activity/assignment. The lesson plans are on the following topics:
· Perspectives, featuring the stories of Rosalia Csengeri and Eva Kor – This unit is designed for an English/Language Arts classroom and can be adapted from 6th-12th grade. Some possible objectives are understanding the narrative process, value of different voices, the use of primary and secondary resources, and how the narrator’s point of view influences how events are described. It is designed as a 9-day unit of study.
· Surviving the Angel of Death book unit guide – This unit is designed for a middle school language arts classroom. Some possible objectives are analyzing the structure of books, chapters, and scenes, compare and contrast structures for two or more texts, the ability to describe the narrator’s point of view and how it influences events, and explaining relationships between two or more individuals or events. Depending on use, this could be a semester-long unit of study.
· Pyramid of Hate – This unit is designed with a focus on both History and English Language Arts. The lessons are valuable for any student and can be adapted to any classroom from 6th-12th grade including a classroom for students with special needs. Some possible objectives are to help students develop empathy and concern for others, understand how hatred can lead to intolerance, to provide historical accounts of intolerance from 1933 to present, and encourage students to think beyond themselves. This is designed as a two-day unit.
· Nazi Doctors and Experiments – This unit is designed for a high school biology class; however, the lessons could easily be adapted to a language arts classroom. Some possible objectives are research and drawing conclusions, analyzing informational text, following the writing process, and citing sources. It is designed as a 3-5 day unit of study.
