Grade 3 School Retreat

My little boy was so happy when he returned from their school retreat. Grade 3 pupils had their 4-hour school retreat today and he brought home some prizes. He was so excited when he reached home before lunch time. He told us that their team won two of the retreat games played by them. They’ve won first place in poster making and another on answering questions. He showed me the mechanical pencil and correction paper prizes for them. He actually didn’t mind if there are prizes or none because the games itself made him happy. He told me that he’s very glad he’s well now because if not he’ll never be as happy as he is today.

Don’t Want to Miss School Activities

LJCS Grade 3 students had their retreat today. I have to get early even when we had few sleep the night before. Josh had severe stomach pain and we thought he’d never make it in their retreat today. We were actually telling him that he’ll never be able to attend the retreat but he firmly told us that it’s not allowable to miss the retreat. I laughed at his serious talk because I find it hard to associate his decision with a 9-year old boy. At the height of his pain he still didn’t want to miss any school activity. Hope he’ll stay the same even when grows up. As early as now I can see a strong personality and high regards in education in my little boy.

Benefits of Carpet Flooring and the Likes

My niece’ three-year old daughter is super active and she’s so worried that she might trip or fall anytime during playing and walking. As they plan for their house which they’ve started building this year they were thinking what kind of flooring they would need to have with a child like their daughter. I can very well relate to their problem because I’ve been to that kind of situation when my kids were younger. It’s normal for parents to worry about their child’s welfare and how their environment will affect them. 

Well for cases like this one it’s better to think of safe flooring for them as safety should be first and foremost concern to us. I would recommend carpet flooring for children with super active inclination to minimize the risk of hurting themselves when they walk and run through the flooring. I can’t imagine a toddler running on smooth tiles. Just the thought brought fear so if you’re really concerned about the kind of flooring you would buy and install in your homes you can visit www.CarpetOneStillwater.com  for wide range of flooring for your home.

Using Charts in Teaching Your Kids

Source: beyondthegrades.blogspot.com via Race on Pinterest

The use of charts in teaching a child is an effective way to enhance the skills of the students naturally.  This way the child can see studying in a different way-an interesting approach in familiarizing the kid with the lessons he should learn.  We use charts like this in the house and paste it on one wall whenever our little boy has quarterly and midterm exams or sometimes if the lesson is not so clear to him.  As my husband is on his education degree himself he feels that Josh is adept to learning techniques like this. See for your own.

Good Observation in TLE-Electronics and Electrical Subjects

My husband is currently taking BSE-TLE and I’d like to share some of his observations on field studies in one of the secondary schools in nearby town. Together with two of his classmates they observed real time teaching and came to some concepts in imparting education to high school students. Theories and other literal forms of instructions are not enough to enhance the skills of the learners. The students should put their knowledge to actions to completely grasp the meaning of those theories.

In TLE subject the teachers should be capable with knowledge and expertise in bringing up various points in education students in the field of electronics, electrical, woodcraft, business, agriculture, cosmetology and other livelihood education. In Benjamin Esguerra Memorial National High School they are equipped not just with the instruments and devices but talented TLE teachers as well. DH witnessed how the students have expertly assembled various electrical and electronic projects. Their teacher Mr. Panfilo Aldea gave them his full supervision in their actual training making them achieve complete knowledge in identifying and computing electrical flow of circuit.

Beautifying Our Home on Mom’s Birthday

When we had our kitchen and dining area renovated last summer we also replaced our seat covers for the two sala sets that we have. It’s also the month of my Mom’s 80th birthday so my sister and I exerted all efforts to please her with regards to home decorating and housekeeping. She was delighted when the new custom-made sofa cover arrived at the house together with the new curtains and especially-designed velvet throw pillows which accentuate the living room. 

Even if Mom’s birthday was celebrated somewhere else we still made our house as presentable as ever for her visitors and some of our relatives who were not able to come with us on buffet restaurant. My siblings and I agreed on having it somewhere else because I didn’t want to cook for many people then. We also wanted to just relax, dine and enjoy our Mom on her 80th birthday.

When we want our homes to look beautiful it should start with good flooring because it serves as a base of your house. It won’t make a lot of impact if you just focus on the furniture; accessories and other related decorations in your house as long as your flooring is not in harmony with the whole environment.

Finishing Touches in Residential Construction

My brother renovated his ground floor and now it’s in higher elevation and looks a lot different. When he looks for new tiles for the renovated flooring he also canvassed for some claw tubs for one of his residential projects. His clients are getting trendy these days that they want the latest designs in their bathroom accessories. I told my brother that he really should search online for the latest style and designs available because there are more suppliers online.

Good enough he’s now having his own list where his customers can choose from. I now believe what he’s saying in the past that finishing touches in construction is the most tedious and meticulous side of construction. It also eats up more time and patience. Well customers are now more demanding also so Engineers and Architects should be on their toes always for the latest designs and technology in residential construction.

HS Observation and Field Studies

DH enjoyed his field studies with one of the public high schools in the town next to ours. It's only an annex to the main school but it has new building and facilities are good. As prerequisite to DH's subject in BSE-TLE they're required to submit a report on observing the teachers as they teach their students and give remarks and comments on the facilities of the school. 

DH told me that Benjamin Esguerra MHS is equipped not only with computers and equipment needed to enhance the knowledge and skills of the students but with intelligent and talented teachers as well. He saw how the students were taught with TLE subjects and he was impressed with how the students easily solve and explain circuit flow and the whole performance of the class. Of course this cannot be done without the full supervision and teaching of their patient and intelligent teachers. DH told me that if all public high schools are like that then we could be proud that education is of quality standard level.

Well when we thought about our own flooring a year ago we considered a lot of things because it should meet our specific needs and requirements. For one we love to have the elegant tiles but I have 3 kids to think about when floors are wet and slippery. The most critical is actually my Mom who is already 80 years and for whom we fear wet tiles. We’ve chosen vinyl tiles and we just chosen an elegant and tile-looking design to make it look like a tile also. 

We also planned on carpeting the bedroom for warmth and ease of actions especially when my niece’ 3-year old toddler visits us. She’s so active that we sometimes fear she would slip or fall. This is where the benefits of carpet flooring are found of great use because it provides durability, easy maintenance and comfort in using.

Field Studies on TLE Subjects

As part of their curriculum in secondary education DH scheduled an observation study in one of the public high school next to our town. At first teachers on the subject outside Technology Livelihood Education declined to be observed but the principal insisted that DH and his group will gain more if they will do a round up observation on some other subjects. 

Anyway their focus is really on TLE subjects as it’s their major in education and they will have to learn and observed the current method and techniques in implying technology livelihood education to high school students. As the country started to implement the K+12 curriculum the impact relies heavily on the additional subjects on Grade 11 & 12 which they called now as senior high school. I’m glad that DH’s chosen major in education is interesting and in time for the new curriculum.

Best Lasik Services

Our eyes are one of the most important organs in our body because through them we can see the beautiful things around us and we need them in all of our daily activities. I’ve learned the full impact of losing sight when my Mom got blind for 10 days 3 years ago. She was diagnosed with cataract on her left eye. Due to fear of operation my Mom declined the proposal to have her cataract operated to prevent partial blindness. She was shocked when she was suddenly robbed of her sight but it forced her to undergo the cataract operation to save at least one of her eyes. 

After the laser surgery she regained sight of her left eye and after few more days a miracle happened that made her right eye regained sight also. During those days when she was blind I realized how hard it is to lose sight because it affects all your actions and activities and it’s like the world has shut its door on you. After that experience I’m more careful with my eyes and began to consider having my nearsightedness cured by Lasik surgery. 

I was used to wearing eyeglasses since college and even if contact lenses are in nowadays I didn’t wear one of those as my busy schedule is not conducive to wearing such lenses. I will get rid of my eyeglasses when I’ve regained my 20/20 vision. I know I can only achieve that through Lasik surgery just like the best lasik services in Chicago being offered by highly experienced Chicago LASIK and cataract surgeon Dr. Sondheimer. 

He offers services such as Lasik eye surgery in Chicago, glaucoma treatments, contact lens fittings, Crystalens lens implants, ReSTOR Multifocal lens implants, toric lens implants to treat astigmatism and cataract surgery in Illinois. Their services also include the latest refractive technologies and techniques to bring about the best solutions in vision correction to thousands of his patients. With the help of great surgeons like him I see the future with less correction eyeglasses on many patients with eye defects. That would include my own nearsightedness. Soon I’ll be free from eyeglasses.

Fashionable Yet Affordable Flooring

My brother dropped by the house today to check on my Mom. He also told us about the recent renovation he did with his house. After the flood last month he decided to elevate his ground floor up to 2 feet higher so he’ll not be affected anymore when a sudden outburst in dams happened again. His house was hit twice with a knee-deep submersion and he did the general cleaning for two rounds. He’s so tired that he promised himself he will not let that happen again. 

They’re quite finished with the renovations except for the finishing and that includes choosing the best tiles for his ground flooring including kitchen and bathroom. As construction is his business and Engineer by profession he has plenty of Tile Options and suppliers offering him discounts but he wants to choose tiles with not just quality but style as well. He wanted his home to be a model of what he offers to his clients so he did take real effort in coming up with an impressive flooring. 

Well with all these consideration in mind he also wants his renovation to be affordable without sacrificing the beauty of his house just like what Viking Carpet One offers to those who want competitive price for quality and stylish flooring. They have a big showroom showcasing their tile flooring products with various patterns, sizes, and colors.

Laminated Flooring for My Duplex Plans

How I’d love to start the duplex project I’ve been planning for a year now but I need to have the funds. Our house really needs a renovation. It’s a huge house with just a bit of style so I’m planning to make it a stylish duplex home for my Mom & sister and for my family. We’ve been together for so long and now that my kids are growing up fast I think it’s time that we separate and build our own small house. Since the house can accommodate our planned duplex units my sister and I planned for its design and style. I would love to try laminate wood flooring if plans will push through on summer vacation. 

I’ve seen houses with that kind of flooring and I was impressed by the wide variety of looks and texture I can choose from. You can choose wood, slate or tile for lamination and be assured that it can withstand stains and moisture at the same time giving you that perfect finish as when you just install your favorite tile or vinyl. Your laminate will be mistaken for the real tile or stone and ideal for entryways, family rooms, kitchen and places where there’s plenty of traffic. No need to look for more when you want stylish tough floors at affordable price.

I'm A Twenty Dollar Bill

You are a pretty ordinary gal or guy. There's a lot of people like you in the world, and you probably tend to run in a pretty tight pack. You may not be able to buy everything you want in the world, but you do okay. You're able to be comfortable. Compared to most people, you're not really materialistic. You see how money is useful, but you don't obsess over it. As long as you have enough money to pay for what you need, you're happy. You don't feel rich or poor. 

This is just a quiz but all things said are true.  I'm not materialistic and I don't let money run my life.  We need money to sustain our needs but it's not all we need to be happy.  Working to have money is just right but we should only aim for enough that we need and not for everything that we want.   We should be happy with what we have and not with the things that others have.  It's ok if we can afford some of our whims but if we can't we should be contented enough.
