69-Archaeobotanical Analysis Of Flotation Residues From The Jamestown Site (21c4-14), The Northfield, Burning Star Mine# 4, Perry County, Illinois, William M. Cremin

Reports of Investigations

Jamestown (21C4-14) is a large multicomponent site overlooking the confluence of Rock Fork, Bonnie, and Galum creeks in the Northfield, Burning Star Mine # 4, Perry County, Illinois. The Northfield is an area of mature topography featuring the gently rolling hills and broad alluvial valleys typical of the Till Plains province of south-central Illinois. Floristically~ it lies within the Oak-Hickory Forest Region of the Western Mesophytic Forest (Braun 1950). However, the local pattern of vegetation can best be described as forest-prairie ecotone, and the Jamestown site is optimally situated to have afforded its occupants easy access to the plant resources …

Questions To Assist In Designing Supplementary Materials, Joanne L. Vacca

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Have you ever walked into an elementary classroom and thought you were in the Christmas display window of F.A.O. Schwartz toy store? The teacher is, putting it mildly, creative and talented at making materials. Many of us are not this gifted, yet want to generate supplementary materials of the teacher-made variety for our own students. This is a good reason for becoming involved in designing and producing materials. A secon and even more practical reason is to help solve a real problem: the classroom is deficient in materials and there is little or no financial support available. What would you …

Changing Perspectives On Context, Argiro L. Morgan

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

The purpose of this article is to show how older, largely context-free models of reading and its instruction became changed into a multidimensional, context-dependent orientation toward written language and the reading process. This change was influenced by an identical trend in linguistics, which also shifted from an over-reliance upon isolated pieces of language to a stufy of naturalistic, connective texts (Kintsch, 1974). The article concludes with suggestions for using a variety of contextual strategies to increase reading comprehension.

Informal Children's Literature Inventory: Test Yourself, Karla Hawkins Wendelin

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
