Extractions: Daily Schedule Math Computer Science ... Calendar English The central focus of our English curriculum is to heighten students' command of and sensitivity to language and literature. In pursuance of this goal, students are encouraged to expand their awareness of, respect for, and originality in language, both written and spoken, through a systematic study of vocabulary, grammar and syntax, works of literature, composition, literary analysis and criticism. In view of the stress placed on writing in our curriculum, the teaching load of our English faculty is reduced by one class, thus providing a free period to meet individually with students. This reduction also gives the extra time necessary to evaluate clearly and make in-depth comments on all written assignments. Much emphasis is also placed on reading and research. The English Department feels that we must, as E.M. Forster admonishes, "only connect;" connections are stressed between form and content, themes and historical context, and the specific genre and the individual student.

The Santa Fund, The Toy Lift and Stony Points food drive are good examples of this. No matter whether its a holiday, a birthday or just for fun, gift giving to your family members and others can be a difficult task! Here are some suggestions Ive taken from the National Association of Elementary School Principals that can be helpful all year long when choosing gifts. Play Together : Look for toys and games that require family participation. Among the best are ones that combine fun and learning. Card and board games, dominoes, chess and word and spelling games are a few examples. Make Something Happen : Toys that promote creativity are good, too. Providing art supplies, puppets, tools, or gardening equipment are easy ways to stimulate imagination. Ready, Set, Action : Children need physical exercise. A ball, bat, junior golf clubs, tennis racquet, skates, jump rope, hula hoop, "frisbee" or badminton set are great for encouraging physical fitness. Make Reading a Gift : Give a subscription to an age-appropriate magazine such as Sports Illustrated for Kids, Ranger Rick

Please click on "submit survey" button at end of survey for your answers to be recorded even if you don't complete all the survey questions. This survey will give the New Jersey Writing Alliance a clearer picture of the ways that high school and college writing instructors hold similar or differing expectations about what students need as they move from one stage in their education to another. Your taking this survey is strictly voluntary. No one will be able to tell that you've taken this survey, and your name or identity is nowhere recorded in this survey, beyond general demographic identifiers. There is no penalty for not participating in this survey. It will take about 15 minutes to complete. Results will be shared at the NJ Writing Alliance conference at Monmouth University, April 8, 2003, and on our website.

View A-Z List Easy Listening Formula (ELF) A gauge of listening comprehension, the ELF was developed by Dr. Irving Fang, an expert in determining the "learnability" levels of TV news reports. It is designed to make broadcasters and writers aware of the various degrees of language complexity in their presentations. The formula consists of counting each syllable above one, per word, in any one sentence. For example, Dr. Fang found that Walter Cronkite's scripts had an easy-listening score of less than twelve. That meant no sentence had more than twelve two-or-more-syllable words and was easily understood by the average listener. The most readable newspaper he tested, the Christian Science Monitor , also averaged less than twelve. Writers who are writing speeches and/or broadcast copy could use the Easy Listening Formula to keep their sentences from becoming too complex and difficult to listen to and understand.
