WHAT CAN WE LEARN ABOUT OURSELVES WHEN WE SEE HOW OTHER PEOPLE LIVE SO LITTLE? PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR QUESTIONS AND THOUGHT IN THE COMMENTS SECTION BELOW! Most Dangerous Ways To School - BoliviaThe Yungas Valley in Bolivia: a unique landscape, where the Andes Mountains meet the Amazon Rain Forest. In this remote section of one of the poorest countries in South America, children have a very long and incredible dangerous walk to school ahead of them. All for one goal: education – for a better life. Seven-year-old Elmer wants to become an engineer and to build his own house, far away from the remote village. But his only way to school leads over a ravine more than 650 feet deep and about 1000 feet long: a kind of homemade zip-line. He has to entrust his live on a rusty iron pulley and a worn plastic bag. On the other side of the valley, on the summit of the mountain range, is where the sisters Helen and Mariela live. Isolated, and in the heart of the jungle. Of all the children who attend the school, the sisters live furthest away. Fear, hunger, and exhaustion are their constant companions. For them, education the key to a new, better world. And that’s why they run great risks every day in pursuit of it. All this is more than just a walk to school – It is a test in the vast jungle. Throughout this journey they all have only one goal in mind: to ultimately find a job in a city and lead a better life. SOME BASIC ELA QUESTIONS AND IDEAS? WAS THE VIDEO TOLD IN FIRST PERSON OR THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW? IS THE SERIES TITLE HYPERBOLE "Most Dangerous Ways To School"? DID THE NARRATOR OR THE CHILDREN USE AND FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE?

Depending on your confidence and grade level, one of the following courses are likely good for you: 2nd grade math 3rd grade math 4th grade math 5th grade math One practice that we’ve seen teachers and students use to great effect is to start, regardless of age, on Kindergarten and then move to 1st grade, 2nd grade, etc. Course challenges and unit tests can be used to accelerate through material. If you don’t have too many gaps, you should be able to get through a previous year’s content in 1-3 hours. If you do have gaps, it may take a bit longer, but that is good! This is your chance to fill in those gaps that might otherwise hold you back in the future. You’ll see that if you are able to put in at least a solid 30 minutes a day of math practice and keep leveling up skills, you’ll see big gains and, most importantly, really see the world in new and exciting ways! One you are at your grade level, try to set a goal of leveling up at least 3 skills a week THIRD CHOICE: MobyMax \| Fix learning gaps www.mobymax.com Award-winning MobyMax helps struggling learners quickly catch up to grade level and closeslearning gaps for all your students.
