Early Visions Bucket

Luis Geronimo de Oré's 1619 account of the 1597 "Juanillo's Revolt" "relies heavily on the captivity narrative of Florida Franciscan mission Fray Francisco de Ávila. The only friar left alive after the revolt, the narrative takes place during Ávila's ten-month imprisonment in Florida's interior pueblo of Tulufine."

A Survey Of Small Squares, Maxey Brooke May 975

A Survey Of Small Squares, Maxey Brooke

Word Ways

In a desperate attempt to make ever-larger word squares, logologists have succeeded only in producing monsters such as the ten-by-ten tautonymic word squares featured in the August and November 1973 issues of Word Ways. Is it not time to recall the intrinsic beauty and extreme versatility of smaller word squares -- say, those of size six-by-six or less? This article surveys a wide variety of such squares, taken from past issues of Word Ways, from Dmitri Borgmann's Language on Vacation (Scribner's, 1965), and from Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games column in Scientific American.

Long-Term Outcomes Of Low-Achieving Third Grade Readers, Emily Jordan, Sarah C. Mckenzie, Gary W. Ritter

Arkansas Education Reports

Research shows that students who demonstrate low reading achievement in 3rd grade have trouble catching back up to grade level and being successful in school, compared to their peers who demonstrate early proficiency (Fiester 2010; Hernandez 2011; Juel 1988). This report seeks to investigate what happens to Arkansas public school students who demonstrate low achievement in reading in 3rd grade. Reading scores from three cohorts of students are followed from 3rd grade until high school, beginning with data from the 2008-09 school year and continuing through 2016-17.

Trauma And The Use Of Formal And Informal Resources In The Deaf Population: Perspectives From Mental Health Service Providers, Stephanie W. Cawthon, Bentley W. Fink, Paige Johnson, Sarah Schoffstall, Erica Wendel

JADARA

Using grounded theory analysis, the current study identifies the perspectives of therapists and counselors regarding the nature of informal and formal resources supporting the treatment of deaf individuals with trauma. Nineteen counselors and therapists were interviewed, and accessibility, formal support, informal networks, and gaps in resources were identified as salient themes. Subsequent analysis identified concerns with confidentiality as a strong theme. This study emphasizes the need for counselors and therapists to become mindful of utilizing resources to support the treatment of trauma while being concerned with confidentiality.

(2000) Discovering Our Voice: A Manual To Accompany 'Geraldo', Ann Margaret Sharp, Laurance J. Splitter

Collected Papers of Laurance J. Splitter

Geraldo is a story about what an immigrant undergoes when he leaves one culture and tries to 'join' another culture. An immigrant suffers a triple disruption: he loses his sense of place, he enters into an alien language, and he finds himself surrounded by beings whose social behavior, norms and traditions are very unlike, and sometimes even offensive to his own. The explanation of the leading ideas in this manual help students and teachers explore the philosophical themes in Geraldo. The discussion plans, exercises, and activities are designed to foster and cultivate the process of philosophical dialogue in the classroom. …

Senator's Opera Treat - To A Rope, Ted Clarke Aug 199

Senator's Opera Treat - To A Rope, Ted Clarke

Word Ways

I take my hat off to the 'paper-and-pencil practitioner' Peter Newby for his clever article "Opera's Not Over 'Til Arepo Returns", which I naturally assume was produced without the aid of a computer. At first sight I thought he really had beaten computer buffs to the punch. A few weeks ago I tackled this classic problem, using the Wordsworth database of 14,300 five-letter words; I gave it up as impossible!
