WHAT IS CHONDROMALACIA OR RUNNER'S KNEE? Patellar chondromalacia, often referred to as patellofemoral pain syndrome or runner's knee, is a condition
This experiment is often done and is always a lot of fun. During this science lesson it promoted a lot of discussion about what we thought was happening. What to do: Stick a candle onto a plate with plasticine. Pour some coloured water onto the plate. Light the candle. Carefully lower a jar over the top. Observe what happens. What we observed: The water was slowly sucked into the jar. The candle slowly went out. When the candle went out the smoke went straight up. When the candle went out lots of water was quickly sucked up into the jar. There were some bubbles around the jar as the water was sucked in. Carefully lower the jar over the candle. What can you see happening? This small candle burnt for a long time. Wow - lots of the water has been sucked up into the jar. This little candle worked the best. We could see some bubbles around the jar. Click on this link to find out why this happens.

It's time to link up with the super funny Farley from Oh Boy Fourth Grade for another month of Currently! Are you in test mode like me??? Listening: Y'all...It is 8:00 am on a school day, and I am listening to the glorious sounds of nothing! Isn't that the best thing you've ever heard? We had STAAR tests on Tuesday and Wednesday, but today I took a personal day. WooHoo!!! I never take true personal days, but today I did. My daughter and I are going to go out to breakfast, go shopping, go see Divergent, and maybe take some bluebonnet pics on the side of the road. It is going to be amazing!!! Loving: I am loving my math center activities that I made for my 5th graders. They did them on Monday as a review before the big day of some basic skills, and let me tell you it was good. They enjoyed them, but even better than that I got information. I saw some things we still need to work on for division and some things they've forgotten about decimals. Let me just say, I will be spiraling those things in over the next few weeks. There are six, super easy-prep centers to do with dice and cards. Usually I glue my centers to file folders and laminate, but this time I was in a rush so I just slipped them into page protectors. That made it even easier. You can click here or the pic below to check them out in my store. There are several pics of them in action below. (Ignore that 10 card in the thousandths place decimal picture...I forgot to take them out at first. We fixed it. Whoops! LOL) Thinking: I am thinking that there are only a couple of weeks left before the science STAAR test. We need to finish up life science and review, review, review! I will be using my Electric Circuit Task Cards, and I'm hoping to make some other things as well to practice the things they are really struggling with. Wanting: I am wanting some more cutie patootie antique toolboxes or other antique boxes to put stuff in like this one that my mom gave me. I put some games in it that we play regularly, and I love it!!! We used to keep the games in the closet. Now they are close at hand, but don't make it look messy. Maybe we'll hit up an antique store today while we're out. :) Needing: I am needing my math STAAR test results. I was anxious the last few weeks for how my kids would do, but know I just need to know. I.Can't.Stand.The.Waiting. #idontdodelayedgratification Hours and Last Day: My contract hours are from 7:10-3:40, and my students hours are 7:40-2:40. Can I just say reading everyone's currently this month has made me really jealous of some of your schedules. Why is my required day so long? Of course, I also work later than that most of the time, but I am getting better about letting things go until the next day so I can go home! Our last day of school is June 6th now because of weather make-up days. And then we have a teacher workday the following Monday. I'm still debating about whether to apply for summer school. I have done it for two years, and I could use the money, but I want a nice long summer. We'll see.... That's all for this month's currently...now I must get out and enjoy this day. :)
Purpose: Women have a much higher rate of anterior cruciate ligament injury than men. Anterior cruciate ligament injuries are very expensive as well as physically and emotionally debilitating. Understanding why anterior cruciate ligament injuries are more prevalent in women as compared to men is crucial and addressing these issues to possibly prevent their high occurrence is important. Review of Literature: Hormonal differences, structural differences, musculature differences, and mechanical differences between men and women leave women more susceptible to anterior cruciate ligament injury. While there are many factors contributing to the higher rate of anterior cruciate ligament injury in women versus men, newer research has been devoted to addressing the issues that can be corrected and the discrepancies that can be decreased. Investigators are now taking the results from such research and applying them to women to decrease the occurrence of anterior cruciate ligament injury among this group. Results: Promising outcomes have occurred in neuromuscular and proprioceptive training programs designed to help women strengthen and train the muscles around their knee thus leading to better stabilization and therefore decreasing the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament injury. Conclusion: Future research should be devoted to finding all of the possible factors of the increased incidence of anterior cruciate ligament injury in women and all potential avenues for preventing these injuries should be studied.
Cut down on transition time with this center rotation board! Just rotate the group cards to the next center and your students will know exactly where to go! My district requires displayed objectives for all subjects and activities. I tried displaying them in different ways, but nothing worked for us. I was looking at our centers bulletin board one day and realized the objectives would work best directly on the rotation board itself! This worked perfectly for us! What is included: My Exact Set 9 Center Rotation Cards (Editable) Group Cards (animals/letters) Blank Objective Cards (Editable) Bulletin Board Letters Header Display Option (Please see preview for details) Poster Option - Read more info below: Poster Print Options Addition - Not Editable Due to Sizing I created a large poster option for myself and decided to add it to this kit. It is included in a PDF format. The posters are set up with 5, 6, and 8 centers on it. Each poster is included with the words "Centers" and "Stations". You can have it printed as a poster from a print shop. You can also print at home using your home printer. Directions for doing so are included. Please Note: I included some examples for the objective cards to use as a reference. You can customize those cards as needed for each of your centers. The editable copies have all the graphics, but no text, so you can customize to meet your needs. Please ask any questions prior to purchasing.

At the end of our school year for the past few years, our preschool has a Field Day where the children rotate through a variety of gross motor activities and spend most of the morning outside playing and working together. It is a great day, but definitely requires planning to make sure it goes smoothly. This is definitely different than a Field Day forLearn more »
