Prosper

Look up and see the sky
And know that God is everywhere
Watching out for your prosperity.
Little birds are fed,
And, your soul, too. Prosper.
Be blessed knowing God is God.
Peace will find you.
Look up and see the sky.

High School Aces

Students, Parents, Guardians...The school year is 3/4 of the way gone. It is time to buckle-down, if you haven't already, and study. A good resource: highschoolace.com

The source gives many text resources. The web site connects to images. The mind connects to fields of flowers and to global sustainability.

Parents helping teens

Standardized testing is a bit like playing a video game. You want to gather as much treasure as you can... To that end, parents can encourage teens and teens can self-motivate and study 15 to 20 minutes a day (or more) of science. What to study. Use your state's learning standards as a guide. But, also consider current events. What was that Nobel prize about? Oh, a winner was in our state...better know that one.

Work on math and vocabulary, too. Believe it or not you need English Language Arts and Math skills in science!!!

A good web site...HighSchoolAce.com
