In order for the parents to know first hand their child's progress there will be at least one conference period each semester in addition to the written reports. Please cooperate in every way when your child's teacher tries to establish an appointment for your conference. Third week progress reports will be given in each six week period, on a Wednesday and should be signed by the parent and returned to the Homeroom teacher. Honor Graduates Grades earned in major subjects completed during the four years of high school (grades 9-12) are used in compiling honors for graduation. The student graduating with the highest academic average, and who, in the judgment of the faculty and administration, exhibits and exemplary life, will represent the graduating class as Valedictorian. The same procedure will be used in selecting the Salutatorian, the student with the second highest academic average. Honor Roll In keeping with the educational philosophy of Broward Christian School, in which there is utmost concern for development in the areas of academic, physical, emotional and spiritual growth, all subjects in the curriculum are included in determining honors recognition. An overall average of 91 (B+) must be obtained in order to receive honors recognition. Those students achieving an average of 95 (A) receive high honors recognition.

I believe I solved it by applying sound Bible exegesis principles. Gordon D. Fee, in his New Testament Exegesis, p 27, states simply, Exegesis answers the question, What did the biblical author mean? It has to do both with what he said (the content itself) and why he said it at any given point (the literary context). Furthermore, exegesis is primarily concerned with intentionality: What did the author intend his original readers to understand?

Extractions: , mary.rita.otto To: SCA-ARTS LIST To: SCA-ARTS at UKANS.EDU Subject: Re: Waulking Waulking is the same thing as fulling. The word is used in Scandinavian languages (Norwegian *valking*, Swedish *valkning*). Waulking can be anything from simply "walking" or rather trampling on the cloth, which is immersed in warm water, sometimes with soap or urine added, to more big-scale waulking with water-powered machinery. This machinery uses wooden "hammers" to work the cloth. Some of this is still in existence, or has been reconstructed, in Sweden today and is being used by eg. textile artists. Since the word exists in all Scandinavian languages as well as in English (Scottish?) - might it not have been brought to the British Isles with the Vikings? Only my guess, though!

Extractions: Description: Advance registration for former ANN102 students possible. The 102/106 courses focus on developing all four language skills (listening, speaking, reading, writing) and it is also their aim to prepare students for the written and oral tasks of the 199 Proficiency Exam, usually taken at the end of the second term. (See the description of tasks of the 199 exam.) For language input and activities, the courses all use coursebooks as their basic material. These are supplemented with extra materials (printed articles, audio, video) on a variety of topics (ranging from everyday, ``down to earth'' ones to more academic issues.) There are student presentations to encourage individual efforts as well as individual vocabulary development in content based on contemporary literary or everyday texts. The courses include a minimum of two in-class progress tests, a written or oral vocabulary test and several shorter in-class tests. Assessment: based on attendance (regular attendance and up-to-date preparation are essential), contribution and activity in class, the quality of the individual presentation and the homework, as well as on the test results.
