Early Pre Kindergarten Preschools Near Me For 1 & 2 Year Olds
Our Prelude to Preschool Programs ensure a joyous and engaging beginning to your child’s life-long education.
Our Prelude to Preschool program helps children develop confidence, community, and independence during their first experience of school. We believe children are highly curious and capable learners, born with a natural drive to explore the world, form their own thoughts and questions and devise their own experiments with which to test out their ideas. Our early childhood educators are here to help them. With their sensitive and expert guidance, children will also build trusting and dynamic relationships with both teachers and peers, acquiring important social skills that will carry them through life.
For children 12–34 months, our mixed-age program offers community and cultivates independence. Each program includes art, music, creative movement, story-telling, and open play in our classroom learning centers. Each section participates in gross motor skills time in our sun-filled spaces. Grown-ups will also enjoy camaraderie and support in our discussion groups and evening parenting workshops
The early morning classes include healthy snack time; the late morning classes allow time for children to eat a packed lunch together, brought from home.
While these programs are not prerequisites for admission to the 14Y Preschool, Prelude to Preschool families will receive priority consideration during the preschool admissions process.
The Jewish values of kindness, respect, and inclusivity are reflected in our curriculum and throughout our Early Childhood programs.

How they help at the “My Career” family support center for mobilized people in Moscow: the stories of four women October 6, 2022 | msk1.ru
Relatives of mobilized Muscovites consult on nutrition for children, payment of subsidies, and also come for psychological help

The Center for Supporting the Families of Mobilized Citizens has opened in Moscow. It is located on Sergiy Radonezhsky Street, 1, building 1, next to the Taganskaya metro station. The MSK1.RU correspondent went there to talk to the wives and find out what problems they come with and what kind of support they are given in this center.

Mostly women enter the building, on the arch of which is the inscription “My Career”. Some of them came to the employment center. But consultations for the families of mobilized women also cost a lot.

Share
This center works like a regular MFC, through the windows. Visitors talk about their situation, and they are given coupons.
Many mobilized left small children. Their mothers, who are the only breadwinners in the family, want to get free school meals and enroll their children in free clubs.
Human Resources Specialist Yulia told MSK1. RU that her husband’s summons came on Monday, and on Wednesday he was taken to school. Now Julia is solving the issue with kindergartens. She and her husband have two minor children, the eldest has health problems.
— Now I am solving the issue of kindergartens. I was provided with legal assistance, but I had no more questions. I have two children: one is 5, the other is 4. The first child is problematic: epilepsy and mental retardation. – Note ed. ), – said Julia.
– My child will go to kindergarten, now I’m going to consult so that it’s all free, children’s circles are free. And about material things, because the child is heavy. What the state provides in kindergartens is a speech therapist twice a week and a defectologist twice a week, for my child this is very little. You have to search through the Internet and for a fee. While my husband was working, we could afford it, but now it will be unprofitable for me, ”added Yulia.
Yulia’s husband earned 70 thousand a month. Julia, due to the fact that she needs to take care of a sick child, works for 0.75 rates, and her salary of 35 thousand per month for paid doctors for her son is simply not enough.
In addition, Yulia told us that at first they tried to serve the summons when her husband was not at home. She herself did not sign it and said that it was necessary to hand the document to her husband in person. According to the woman, in the military registration and enlistment office the man was threatened with a criminal case.
– The military enlistment office threatened that if the husband did not sign the contract, he would be imprisoned for 10 years. And they won’t pay any money. This is the Kuntsevo military registration and enlistment office. I found out what legal documents are. I found 31-FZ, when my husband announced them, they said: “Well, you remembered the SS document.” And where does the USSR have to do with this federal law of 1997? They threaten in the military commissariats that when you arrive at school, they will give you a contract and you are obliged to sign it. Prosecutors are silent and say that no rights have been violated,” Yulia said.
The mobilization hotline has been told who to contact if a visitor is threatened with a criminal case for refusing to sign a contract.
“You can complain about such work of the military registration and enlistment office to the head of the military registration and enlistment office, as well as to a higher commissariat, the prosecutor’s office or to the court,” the operator specified.
However, the center helps not only the wives of men who were called up after September 21st. Spouses of Russian soldiers told MSK1.RU that support is also provided to those whose husbands went to the NVO earlier.
Olga told MSK1.RU that she was against it when her husband announced that he would go to the NWO. According to her, he received a call from the military registration and enlistment office when the special operation began. Since June, the man has been serving under a contract. The family has two children – 3 and 7 years old. Olga was left alone, and she still needs to take care of her husband’s elderly mother. In the center on Sergius of Radonezh, she consulted on school meals and paying for an apartment.
Olga said that she was satisfied with the work of the center and is waiting for the results

— I am glad that this center exists. They are on every issue: on social benefits for children from 3 to 7 years old, on school meals, paid circles, kindergartens. You can get this for free. I wrote a statement addressed to the director of the kindergarten, let’s see if they give us everything that they promise, ”she said.
Olga had questions about legal advice and about her husband’s power of attorney.
— Not all of them, of course, decided. I need a husband to write a power of attorney, but they won’t deliver him here,” the woman said.
According to Olga, it would help her a lot if children were given free lunches at school. The father of the family did not leave them a card that receives money from the contract service.
– Our dad officially receives the money, but I don’t have the card in my hands, and he didn’t think about it. They told me: “Wait for dad, he will save up.” And the situation for a long time, when we have the card, is not clear,” she added.
Kristina and Daria came to the center to help the families of the mobilized together. Christina’s husband left to serve under the contract even before the announcement of mobilization and has been in the special operation zone for a long time. Darya’s husband left the Moscow organization as a volunteer. But at the same time, they still try to help and advise on all issues.
In the women’s assistance center they issue regular coupons

“When your comrades die, you can hardly see any metaphor behind it” – Weekend – Kommersant
The History of the Civil War by Dziga Vertov is released in Russian cinemas. The film, shot in 1921, was considered lost and was restored last year by film critic Nikolai Izvolov. This is Izvolov’s second appeal to the legacy of the classic of Soviet cinema – in 2018, he also restored Vertov’s debut film Anniversary of the Revolution. In the film, you can see the Civil War through the eyes of its witnesses and participants: by the time the “History of the Civil War” was created, the Soviet myth about the Civil War had not yet taken shape, and its heroes had not yet gone through Stalin’s purges. About how and why the film was lost, what he told his contemporaries and what he tells his descendants, Nikolai Izvolov told Konstantin Shavlovsky.

What story does Vertov’s film tell?
This story is primarily a mosaic. This is a puzzle that is not fully assembled. The fact is that the Civil War was a fateful event for all mankind, it lasted for several years, the front line was huge, and only five or six cameramen filmed it. And of course, they couldn’t keep up everywhere. What was filmed was edited by Vertov. For example, the anarchist rebellion in Moscow at 191818 was removed, but the Socialist-Revolutionary rebellion is no longer there. There is a lot of Trotsky in the film, because he always went to the front with a cameraman, but Stalin was not, although he should have been. Stalin was engaged in the defense of Tsaritsyn – and it is known that there was Vertov’s famous experimental sketch “The Battle of Tsaritsyn”, filmed in 1919, which, unfortunately, has not been preserved. This, by the way, is one of the few parts of the “History of the Civil War” that I could not find.
Did Vertov have personal relations with Stalin?
I don’t think I had any personal relationship with either Lenin, or Trotsky, or Stalin. Although he was, of course, a member of Lenin’s secretariat and was friends with the editors of the Pravda newspaper, with Maria Ilyinichnaya Ulyanova, Lenin’s sister. Perhaps he was acquainted with Krupskaya. According to legend, when Vertov fell ill in 1919, Lenin sent him an open bottle of red wine from the Kremlin. And then Vertov thought all his life whether Lenin tried this wine himself or not. But Vertov did not have close relations with the Soviet rulers.
Nevertheless, the chronicles of the Civil War have been preserved by an order of magnitude more than the one that was included in Vertov’s film. By what principle did it include or not include certain events?
One can only guess, but it seems to me that there is no need to look for additional meanings here. The work was done in an exceptionally short time: an hour and a half film was edited in just 10 days. It was made for display at the Third Congress of the Comintern, which was held in June 1921 in Moscow. Moreover, most of the foreign participants in this congress – the Japanese, Germans, Indians, Hungarians – were completely unknown to the heroes of this film: they had no idea who Smilga, Kirov, Kazadanov, Ordzhonikidze, Mekhonoshin, Kozhevnikov were. Apart from the faithful Stalinists Budyonny, Voroshilov and Kalinin, almost no one survived 1937th: Ordzhonikidze shot himself, Raskolnikov died under mysterious circumstances, and his death is still surrounded by mystery, someone spent his whole life in prison, like Kazadanov, someone went crazy in the camp, like Kozhevnikov, Larisa Reisner died, drinking unboiled milk. By the way, it is not indicated in the credits of Vertov, but in the film there is a frame where three people are sitting at the stern of a military boat sailing along the Kama. These are Innokenty Kozhevnikov, commander of the Partisan Army, Fedor Raskolnikov, at that time commander of the Volga-Caspian flotilla, and Larisa Reisner, who at that time was Raskolnikov’s wife and commissar of the Volga-Caspian flotilla. A very beautiful woman in a hat.
So the History of the Civil War today also looks like a requiem for the victors?
Yes, on the screen we see the children of the revolution, whom it will soon devour, but they do not yet know about it. And Vertov, of course, did not yet know this in 1921.
How did it happen that the film was lost?
It was not replicated, that is, it existed in a single copy, and there were no film archives then. The first state archive appeared in 1926, and it included only those films that were preserved in the warehouses of the film studio in the editorial departments. Quite a few films died simply because no one saved them. There was no malicious intent in this, in all countries the statistics are approximately the same, and in our country, in Europe, and in the USA, about 80% of the films of the silent period died.

That is, not because the heroes of the Civil War became enemies of the people?
Many modern people have an idea of Soviet censorship as ferocious monsters with scissors, who deliberately sneaked into the archives and cut something there. But there was nothing like that. Films, if they fell into the archive, were already impeccably preserved there. Therefore, for example, the entire chronicle with Trotsky, who was Stalin’s main enemy and died at the hands of Stalin’s agents, has been perfectly preserved, nothing has been lost from it.
What is the value of the story that Vertov tells?
Vertov told us the history of the Civil War as he imagined it in 1921, that is, in very hot pursuit. It was not a film-metaphor or a film-image. When you run out of a burning armored train at the moment of its shelling, when your comrades die there and then you glue the film you shot, you hardly see any metaphor behind it. It is important for you to tell what really happened.
In his Kinopravda, Vertov not only recorded, but created an image of Soviet reality. But his history of the Civil War turned out to be not very inspiring. In the film, there are almost no jubilant masses of the people, in the frame – sheer devastation and war-weary, rarely smiling people. That is, in terms of material and installation, it does not at all look like a revolutionary agitation.
And I don’t think the film had any propaganda value, because the war officially ended three months before editing. The NEP began, a completely different life, and it would be rather strange to make a propaganda film about the Civil War, which everyone tried to forget like a bad dream. It was a commissioned film, and it did not have any resonance among the public, and, most likely, it could not have, because it was not the kind of movie that people wanted to see. The characters in the film, indeed, practically do not smile, we only see a smiling white-toothed guy only once, this is Nikolai Kazadanov, who commanded the Red troops at the time of the suppression of the Yaroslavl rebellion. The rebellion was suppressed, the city was dilapidated and burned, and the military man, who completed his task, a young guy, smiles, rejoices in victory. But this is one of the few times we see a smile at all in the film. Because what is there to be happy about? Civil war is a terrible death that is all around. And how to describe, for example, the way you walk through the railway station, and a terrible stench is heard from some kind of heating truck, because it is all full of rotting human bodies? A civil war is not a happy event at all, and there are no winners in a Civil War. There are only losers in one way or another. Of course, those who formally won, or those who consider themselves winners, begin to live normal lives, and in this life they tend to forget about what happened as soon as possible. The Civil War later began to take shape as the main Soviet myth, by the end of the 20s and the beginning of the 30s, when literary works like Fadeev’s “Defeat” began to appear. And at 19At the age of 21, when the starving people, who had just got the opportunity to somehow feed themselves, rushed to eat, no one wanted to remember the Civil War once again.
That is, on the screen we see the Civil War before the appearance of the myth of the Civil War, that is, its direct perception by witnesses and participants?
Yes. Moreover, if you look closely at the film, you can understand a lot about how this perception has changed. For example, April 1918, the anarchist uprising in Moscow. The people in the frame are still pretty decently dressed, all have clean ironed clothes, by the way, they are smiling at the camera. The arrested anarchists, who have just fought and fired machine guns, hide a black banner in their bosoms, smoke and behave very relaxedly. Young guys, they are still playing it all, they still do not understand that everything is serious. But at the end of the war, at 1921 in Kronstadt, there is, in my opinion, a very revealing shot. Somewhere in the background there is a parade of winners, in the middle there are crowds of inhabitants dressed in rags who crawled out of the basements, and in the foreground orderlies are taking away corpses from the streets. And this is no longer of interest to anyone. They take away the corpses – and this is already so familiar that it’s simply not interesting to anyone. These two frames, placed side by side, contain the whole history of the Civil War. A whole era lay between them, human psychology has changed, the population has changed, people’s attitude to history has changed, to participation in the war.
There are many shots of Vertov himself in the film. What civil events did he witness?
Vertov was in the partisan army of Kozhevnikov, and in a burning armored train near Lugansk. There is a document that was issued to him by the father of the writer Yuri Trifonov, Valentin Trifonov, who was a member of the Revolutionary Military Council of the South-Eastern Front, and therefore there are so many shootings from there in the film: Baku, the North Caucasus, Novorossiysk. Vertov traveled a lot with propaganda trains, where there were also cameras, he filmed the trial of Philip Mironov. Even he himself did not really remember the list of all the shootings, but in the filmography that he compiled, there were about 160 titles, including short films and film magazines.
How many of them have survived?
I think a lot has survived, but not all can be identified by now. Right now, for example, I have a strong suspicion that we managed to find part of a film made for the fifth anniversary of the Red Army, the titles for which were drawn by Alexander Rodchenko. If so, it would be quite an interesting job where Vertov and Rodchenko worked together. But I will not go into it yet, because all this still needs to be proven.
As far as I understand, the History of the Civil War also contains footage by Eduard Tisse, Sergei Eisenstein’s future cameraman.
Yes, Tisse filmed a lot in Civil. And according to his filmography, he also filmed episodes of the Kronstadt rebellion. By the way, there is a shot on the battleship Petropavlovsk, where the ship’s bow turret with two guns was filmed frontally. At the premiere in Amsterdam, they asked me: listen, it looks so much like a shot from the movie “Battleship Potemkin”, when the guns are raised directly into the camera, is there really no connection here? mutiny, then, quite possibly, it was he who was the author of this frame, and then the roll call with “Potemkin” may not be accidental. But again, this is an observation that requires proof.
What was the status of front-line operators during the Civil War?
They received a special mandate for the production of cinematographic filming, with which they were accepted into the army, and film, which at that time was worth its weight in gold. After all, their own film was not produced in Soviet Russia, it had to be imported, and the country was cut off by fronts from abroad.
Was there a parallel import?
No, there could be no parallel imports, because from Murmansk to the Black Sea and from the Pacific Ocean to the Caucasus everything was cut off by fronts. In the memoirs of Lev Kuleshov, one can read that sometimes Lenin’s personal permission was required to get 100 meters of film – and this is about three to four minutes of screen time. Some operators, when they went to the Southern Front and ended up in some places liberated by the Red Army, immediately went to the market, because there they could still get it from the speculators.
Both Anniversary of the Revolution and History of the Civil War are early Vertov, before Kinopravda, before experiments and avant-garde searches, thanks to which the whole world knows him. Where do you see Vertov as an avant-garde artist in these early films?
Those who know the canonical Vertov well can, it seems to me, see elements of his future poetics in The History of the Civil War. For example, there is no chronological sequence of events in the film. He throws events from one place to another, includes his own work of two years ago in the film. The “History of the Civil War” can be likened to a medieval chronicle, in which the chronicler includes the works of his predecessors. And at the same time, this is a work of authorship, and not just a random compilation. These anachronisms hint to us at the future evolution of Vertov.
What do you think audiences will be watching this film about in October 2022? What can footage from a hundred years ago tell us today?
In general, we planned the Russian premiere in March, but in March 2022 everyone was only interested in TV, the Internet and news. We have postponed the premiere to the fall. And now, it seems to me, this movie can become some kind of argument in the thoughts of the audience about today. Since the structure of the Civil War is the same at all times; and what the audience will see on the screen may resonate with them precisely because the film shows that this kind of thing has already happened and any war ends in peace anyway. It may even be some kind of psychotherapeutic effect from viewing. For example, during the premiere screening of The Anniversary of the Revolution in 2018, it suddenly became clear that in the thousandth hall of the Oktyabr cinema there were people of various political views, between whom a skirmish arose right during the viewing. Someone shouted: “Yes, you shot so-and-so there!”, And they answered him: “And you did the right thing, we will do the same with you!” And I thought that some kind of stabbing would begin, when suddenly Vasily Ivanovich Chapaev appeared on the screen in close-up, smiled, and the audience applauded in unison. And all the controversy stopped at once.
Maybe this is happening because there is no consensus in society about the events shown in the film, and the story is constantly being revised?
I don’t think it’s really about any sharp contradictions. The descendants of the Reds and Whites have long been married, and today’s discussions about the Civil War are unlikely to separate people on opposite sides of the barricades.
But now events are taking place that again separate families and generations, and many contradictions are rooted precisely in the events of a hundred years ago.
Yes, but I am convinced that the descendants of those who today are irreconcilable to each other will marry again, and some new people will arise, with their own ideas about history. It’s unavoidable. And this, in particular, is the lesson that, I think, can be learned from watching the “History of the Civil War” today.

A grateful profession. Natalya Grigina – about the approach to the child, nutrition in kindergarten and the role of parents in raising Revda news
September 30, 2022
370
Do you remember your kindergarten teacher? Now is the time to remember. After all, September 27th was the Day of Preschool Education Workers. Together with them, we learned to eat with a spoon, sang a song about a grasshopper, did physical education in black shorts and white T-shirts. And how is it now – in kindergarten? We met and talked with the teacher Natalya Grigina. She works in kindergarten No. 39 (structural unit 2) in the group of the tiniest pupils – with children of two years old. And in our conversation, we tried to understand why educators, in spite of everything, love their work.
35 years of childhood
Kindergarten sheltered in a pine island on Oleg Koshevoy street, right opposite the clinic. We came here at a quiet hour – all the kids were sleeping, silence reigned in the building. Here it even sounds somehow different – sweet and peaceful. Children’s things are neatly laid out on chairs, small sandals stand nearby, tired toys sleep on shelves, the air smells delicious of soup and meatballs. Paradise for adults. Natalya Petrovna greets us with a smile, carefully offers tea and sweets.
You know, sometimes you look at a person and understand that he is in the right place. He really paints it. They are united in spirit with this place. I had the same feeling after the first meeting with Natalya Grigina.
— No, I didn’t dream of being a teacher since childhood. But my childhood was interesting, colorful, kind. And this is thanks to my teacher Vera Ivanovna Yeletskaya (I remember her from kindergarten) and my first teacher, Valentina Vasilievna Zhelonkina. We were little children for them, to whom they gave all their joy, all their love. Therefore, childhood was remembered as such a happy one.
— So memories and impressions played a role?
– I think so. When we went to the training and production plant, there were cooks, seamstresses and preschool teachers. I immediately chose the latter. And after graduation, the three of us with classmates went to get a job in kindergarten No. 34. My friends did not work long, and I was a nanny for three years. When she turned 18, she became a teacher. Then kindergarten No. 21 was opened, where I moved. She worked there for 21 years. It was an interesting time! Then I moved here at 39th kindergarten. I have been working here for 11 years. In July of this year, she celebrated 35 years of work in preschool education.
— Is it hard to change jobs after so many years?
— You know… (here Natalya Petrovna shed a tear) Always, no matter how much I worked, I was lucky for my children, for my parents, for my colleagues. There are always good people around me. Of course, there are some moments, but we know how to smooth them out.
Big “bus”
As a rule, Natalya Grigina recruited a group from the age of 3 and led it until graduation from school. “Whether you like it or not, I am yours forever,” she jokes with her parents. By the way, on Teacher’s Day, she already received messages from graduates and parents with congratulations, pleasant words. She released her last senior group this year. Well, now she has a new group – kids from two years old. With such a young age, the teacher works for the second time in his life.
– They are so good! True, they don’t know how to speak, they don’t know how to dress, they have to learn everything here. But when, a month later, the child says: “Dad”, “Mom”, “Bi-bi”, there is simply no limit to joy! We started recruiting a group on August 1, and I immediately fell in love with these babies. And now I can already see which of them will be what when they graduate from school. It is enough for me to talk with the child for a couple of hours to understand his character and what approach is needed.
— True, you really feel some kind of friendliness and love in your group. Yes, as in the whole garden.
— Kindergarten is a big “bus” that “carries” children forward in their development and maturation. Every structure, every “mechanism” is important here. Starting with laundresses, a janitor, a cook, ending with a management. When all this is adjusted and works in the same rhythm, then everything works out. Thank God, everything is in order with us, a professional team works, there is no turnover – everyone has been working for many years, together, helping each other. And now, when everything is adjusted, then work in pleasure. I want to give my heart and soul to this cause.
— There is such a stereotype that a teacher should always be positive, all so playful, smiling.
— I am such a person in life. Of course, anything happens, we are all human. But when you come to work, your two-year-olds come, run to you, shout “mother”, “aunt”, “woman”, in different ways, and hug, whisper “I love you” – it’s worth a lot. You kind of forget about problems.
— Do you have to be the same with your parents?
— Of course. They are perfect for my kids. With someone you just need to talk, support, advise something, say a kind word. I was thinking… The guys from my first issue are already 33 years old!
Like at home
— What is the hardest thing about working with children?
– (thinking) I don’t know. They don’t give me any trouble. I told you, you just need to find a way. Someone needs to be patted on the back, but for someone a word is enough. All children are different. But they are all equally cheerful and kind. And I know my “magic button” for each of them. The only thing that began to speak badly. I think they used to talk more.
— Yes, I have heard about this phenomenon many times. What do you think is the reason?
– Maybe on the phone. After all, it is convenient for parents – they need to take the child, they gave him a phone in his hands. With the game, with cartoons. And this blocks the center of speech. It is necessary to communicate with the child, not to deceive him. And you also need to remember that children see what parents, educators do, and how they do it. And the guys perceive the level of love that comes from adults. I don’t know how it is in other kindergartens, in our group it’s like this – me and my faithful assistant Nadezhda Alekseevna always hug children. It was the same with the older kids. They are accustomed to this from the younger group. Here the baby came to the kindergarten, said hello, hugged the child. This helps to create a homely atmosphere in the group. Many of our parents, when children leave for school, immediately note – yes, it was like at home in the kindergarten.
— But what should a kindergarten teacher do if the child does not speak?
– Play. Conduct games for the development of the speech apparatus. When they told me that two-year-olds would come, I began to prepare, read literature, bought cards. They are elementary. Here is a pipe, you have to say “doo-doo.” I do not need the child to immediately say “pipe”. At first, just “doo-doo.” The machine is “b-b”. Children love these cards. I read a lot of fairy tales, poems, sing songs with the guys. I talk a lot, my mouth doesn’t close at all.
– If we talk about cartoons and, in principle, TV. In new kindergartens, they are everywhere. You, too, are really small.
— We will not get away from modern technologies. It is our life. And children are modern, it is very noticeable. Here my phone will ring, someone is carrying, giving: “On!”. And someone starts to drive a finger across the screen, trying to unlock it. It is immediately clear what kind of child and what he can do. Yes, modern technologies should be. Just don’t forget about the classics. Read stories, books. Chukovsky, Barto, Marshak, Pushkin, Russian folk tales are a must.
— You have 14 children of two years in your group. I, as the father of a baby, understand how difficult it is to dress them, especially in winter. How do you deal with everyone?
— Of course, it is not easy physically, but we are learning. We have certain rules. We try to put something on ourselves first. Somewhere I myself show – like this we put on a sock, like this we take it off. The child repeats. Now we can take off sandals, socks and shorts. Moreover, I also write to my parents – look, we know how to take off our sandals. So that they would ask him to do it at home. And if it turns out, be sure to praise.
— How do children go to kindergarten at the age of 2? Quite small indeed.
— There is a period of adaptation, of course. It went very well for us. Yes, the child comes to kindergarten, he is torn away from his mother, given to someone else’s aunt. I must like him. To do this, I have different surprises in the closet. For example, a bowl of beans, where I hide various items, and they need to be found. We have a big magic ball, children throw it, I throw it – it flies anywhere. There are various clothespins, the guys love to cling to them and take them off. Every morning, kids are greeted by different little animals (soft toys). I read stories about them and sing songs about them. We are constantly trying to come up with something to lure them. And the child gets used to it, he is interested here with other similar guys.
Children are very smart
Do you often argue with your parents?
– I never argue. At the first meeting, I always say that we are a state institution that works according to regulatory documents. These are the Law on Education, the Convention on the Rights of the Child, various SanPins and so on. The Law on Education clearly states that the first educators are parents. And then the state. Therefore, parents should also understand that they have the most important mission of raising their own child. And we do what we can within the framework of our activities. Our education process begins with the locker room. Here we greet the child, he greets us. This is education. And the process is ongoing here. But! Parents think that everything is brought up in kindergarten. This is not true! The child learns what he sees at home. And parents are an example. If mom and dad are sitting at the table at home, eating, discussing something, the child sees this and also sits down at the table. You can see it in the garden. If the kid ran up, grabbed a piece of bread and then ran to play, then there is no tradition at home to eat at the table. Here we only correct such moments. And we tell parents what to do at home.
— Say what you like, but in kindergarten you often do much more for your upbringing than your parents do at home. After all, at home, life, business, cooking, which take time.
— Life passes quickly. You need to understand that there will always be household chores, and the child grows up quickly. And you just need to have time to be his friend, to accompany him. Children’s dishes, cars – all this should be at home. It is necessary to build huts from bedspreads. Did you do as a child? (nodding affirmatively) And I did. And the kids want to do it. And the parents are worried that there will be a mess at home, and give him a phone instead. Children are very smart. They often have to negotiate. Here the child does not want to do a certain action, but wants to play. It is necessary to say: “Here, let’s first go there with you and do this, and then what you want.” You need to talk to him about every situation.
— How to cultivate social skills with children 2-3 years old? I don’t think they understand it.
— They understand everything. They do not yet have a role-playing game, but there is a display game. Here we take a teddy bear, we say that he came to visit us, let’s teach him to eat. We sit him on a chair, dishes are laid on the table, and we say everything – here he takes a spoon and eats, here we pour tea for him, he drinks. It works.
Black and white
— What age is more difficult to work with?
— With the senior group, 5-6 years old. They become mean and noisy. Their auricle changes, it seems to them that they speak quietly, but in fact they scream. By the preparatory group, everything changes. There they already know everything and know everything. Great helpers.
– Children change? Was it easier to work 15 years ago?
– Yes, it’s easier.
— Because the children were easier? Or was the world simpler?
— It’s easier for children and parents. Everything around was clear and understandable. It’s black, it’s white, it’s okay, it’s not. Now there is a lot of permissiveness. Parents know many different rights. And we are little protected.
— I can’t help but ask about baby food. Everywhere they say that it is not enough, and it is tasteless.
— We have good food. A wonderful chef works and has been working with us for a long time. What they feed the children – the menu hangs in the locker room, all parents see it. Today they had porridge for breakfast, cabbage soup and mashed potatoes with chicken cutlet for lunch. Our guys eat everything. And the portions are normal. Enough even for an adult.
– But there is something that children do not like?
— Various vegetable casseroles, fish. What they are not accustomed to eat at home, they do not eat. Parents give them pasta, dumplings, sausages – after all, they ask us for them! But this is not in the kindergarten, we have cutlets.
– Last question. Educator – a thankless profession?
– Thankful. I see gratitude from children, from parents.

From the Michigan Content Expectations:
Using the context of the United States, fourth grade students learn significant social studies concepts within an increasingly complex social environment. They examine fundamental concepts in geography, civics and government, and economics through the lens of Michigan history and the United States. Expectations that particularly lend themselves to being taught through a historic, geographic, civic, or economic lens are denoted.
Geography
Students draw upon their knowledge of spatial awareness, regions, human systems, and human-environment interactions to create more sophisticated understandings of these concepts within the context of the United States. By focusing on the work of geographers, students explore the types of questions geographers ask and the tools they use to answer these questions. Students learn that maps can be used to describe elevation and climate, as well as to analyze patterns of population density. In preparation for the study of American history, students concentrate on the geography of the United States. Students expand their knowledge of human systems using case studies and stories to understand push and pull factors of migration and the influence of migration on culture within the United States. Students deepen their understanding of human environment interactions by assessing positive and negative effects of human activities on the physical environment of the United States. The firm understanding of United States geography established in fourth grade prepares students for the study of American history in fifth grade and world geography in grades six and seven.
Civics and Government
Fourth grade students learn how the United States government works. Students examine the purposes of government as set forth in the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution, how our current form of government functions to serve those purposes, and the probable consequences of not having government, rules, or laws. Building upon their understanding of the structure and functions of government in Michigan, students use examples to explore how the powers of the federal government are limited. Students also begin to understand that the federal and state governments have different powers as a foundation for learning about federalism in fifth grade. Concepts of governmental taxing and spending are expanded from previous grades as students apply these concepts to the federal government. Students explore how key concepts such as popular sovereignty, rule of law, checks and balances, separation of powers, and individual rights serve to limit the power of government and how these ideas are manifested in the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Students learn how government affects their daily lives by identifying examples of rights guaranteed by the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Students explain why all rights have limits, describe the relationship between rights and responsibilities, and investigate ways people can work together to promote the values and principles of American democracy.
Economics
Fourth grade students continue to deepen their understanding of economic principles with a focus on the characteristics of market economies. They move beyond applying the economic concepts of scarcity, choice, and opportunity costs in personal economic decisions and begin to think like an economist, identifying the types of questions economists ask. Economic decision making is examined by applying the concepts of price, competition, and incentives. Students develop an understanding of specialization, division of labor, competition, and interdependence and explore their effects on productivity. Moreover, the circular flow model is introduced in fourth grade, providing a foundation for future studies in economics. Students build upon their knowledge of governmental taxing and spending as they explore why certain public goods are not privately owned. Students also take an increasingly sophisticated look at the global economy as the expectations explore the impact of global competition on the national economy.
Public Discourse, Decision Making, and Citizen Involvement
Students deepen their understanding of public issues and the importance of citizen action in a democratic republic. Using the
context of the United States, fourth grade students identify public policy issues facing citizens in the United States, use graphic data and other sources to analyze information about the issue, and evaluate alternative resolutions. By utilizing examples, students expand their understanding of how conflicts among core democratic values often lead people to want different resolutions to a public policy question. Students demonstrate competency in expressing their own opinions relative to a public issue in the United States and justify their opinions with a reasoned argument with increasing complexity. This foundational knowledge is built upon throughout the grades as students use their knowledge of how, when, and where to communicate and become more proficient in communicating positions on sophisticated public issues with a reasoned argument.

Homeland! Everyone knows this word from childhood. Homeland is the country in which you were born, live with your family and friends.
Soviet people accomplished many glorious deeds defending the freedom and independence of our Motherland.
The Great Patriotic War was going on. The Red Army was advancing. Our tanks broke through to the rear of the Nazi troops. During the battle, a seriously wounded fighter Yuri Smirnov was captured. “How many Soviet tanks are on the offensive? Where is their attack directed?” – asks the fascist officer. The Komsomol was silent. With a blow of his fist, the fascist knocked Yuri to the floor, with a heavy forged boot he hit him in the wounded shoulder. The Komsomolets remained silent. He suffered inhuman torments, but did not say anything to the enemy. He knew that he was dying for his country. And the Motherland did not forget her faithful son. Yuri Smirnov was posthumously awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet
Union. He, like many other heroes, died defending our Soviet Motherland.
Our Motherland – the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics – the USSR.
Our Motherland is very great. When the Moscow schoolchildren go to their first lesson on the morning of September 1, the children of Vladivostok have already returned from school. Their school day is over when the golden hands of the clock on the Kremlin’s Spassky Tower show noon, in Chukotka and Kamchatka it is already late evening.
Many different peoples live in our country. They form a united friendly family.
In the USSR, power belongs to the working people. They themselves establish laws, they themselves govern the state. All plants and factories, railways and power plants, mines and mines, fields and forests, rivers and seas belong to the whole people. We do not have people who would oppress other people, forcing them to work for themselves. All people in our country have equal rights, everyone works for the common good.
But it wasn’t always like that. Previously, our country was ruled by a tsar, landowners and capitalists who oppressed the working people.
The working people fought for a long time to achieve freedom, to become the master of the country themselves. In 1917, the workers and peasants, under the leadership of the Communist Party, which was created by Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, overthrew the tsar, drove out the landowners and capitalists, took power into their own hands and began to build a new life.
For many centuries, the peoples of our country, with their hard work, created cities and villages, built plants and factories, laid roads and canals. Many times the enemies attacked our country. Our people waged heavy wars with them.
History tells about the labor and struggle of peoples, studies their life in the distant and recent past.
It is impossible to understand our modern life, it is impossible to create the future without knowing the past, without knowing history.
How do we learn about the life of people in the distant past? There were no big cities, factories, railways, planes. Houses, clothes looked different, the customs of people were different.
Excavations. The distant past does not disappear without a trace. The ruins of ancient buildings remain; graves of people, and in them the remains of clothing, fragments of dishes, weapons and other items. They need to be found and studied in order to learn about the life of people in antiquity. For this, excavations are underway.
Excavations are being carried out in different places of our country: in the Caucasus and the Crimea, in Siberia and Central Asia, in ancient cities: Kyiv, Novgorod, Moscow – everywhere where people have lived for a long time.
In Central Asia, in a hot waterless desert, scientists have found traces of dry canals, the ruins of buildings covered with sand, overgrown with hard bushes. These were the remains of an ancient city. Excavations have begun. At first, with machines, and then with picks and shovels, people carefully cleared the ruins of massive walls, high towers and dry canals from sand and earth. Where it was impossible to operate with a machine and a shovel, so as not to damage the finds, they worked with knives, brushes and brushes.
The royal palace, built almost two thousand years ago, turned out to be especially interesting. There was not a single window in the large two-story building. Light came in through rectangular holes in the ceiling. In the upper floor of the palace, scientists found drawings on the walls. They depicted people, animals, hunting scenes, battles with enemies. Bronze swords and daggers, earrings and bracelets made of turquoise and silver were also found there. On the dark blue walls, white
and red lines stood out, forming beautiful patterns. Only skillful artists, builders and craftsmen could build such a wonderful building.
There was once a pottery workshop in the lower half-dark floor of the palace. Here, by the light of torches and oil lamps, ancient masters worked.
Many years have passed since then, and now people have come here again. Electric lights flashed brightly, illuminating the vast room. Earthenware vessels for storing grain lay in disarray on the floor. Some of them were decorated with patterns. Sherds, pieces of petrified clay, unfinished vessels with fingerprints of ancient masters were scattered everywhere.
This is how scientists learned that here, in the waterless desert of Central Asia, there once was a flourishing city. They learned what the inhabitants of this city looked like, what they did.
Strong walls and towers, as well as found weapons, indicate that the inhabitants fought wars, attacked their neighbors and defended their city from the invasion of enemies.
Excavations in Central Asia allowed scientists to learn that where the Soviet republics of Uzbekistan and Tajikistan are now located, large states already existed more than two thousand years ago.
In those distant times, there were strong states in the Transcaucasus. Excavations in Armenia and Georgia helped scientists learn a lot about them.
The states of Transcaucasia and Central Asia were the most ancient in our country.
Ancient writing. The ruins of buildings, weapons, jewelry and other items can tell a lot about the life of people in antiquity. But most of all knowledge about the past gives us writing. People learned to write in ancient times.
In Armenia, for example, there are inscriptions carved on stone more than two and a half thousand years ago. These inscriptions were made by order of the kings and tell about campaigns, conquests,
capturing prisoners and other booty, building canals and cities.
Tablets and pieces of leather with inscriptions were found during excavations in Central Asia. Many of them scientists cannot yet read.
During excavations in Novgorod, scientists found scrolls of birch bark – birch bark. It had turned black from time to time, the letters scratched with a sharp stick – writing – barely showed through on it. Very carefully, so that the birch bark does not crumble, it was cleaned of dust with soft brushes and treated with a special compound. The birch bark scrolls turned out to be letters, records of debts, student records. The scholars called the scrolls birch-bark letters.
Most of the ancient books that have survived to this day are written on parchment – specially processed calf or sheep skin.

Abstract
“Introduction to History” – a propaedeutic history course for a four-year elementary school. The educational and methodological package for the course “Introduction to History” for a four-year elementary school was developed in accordance with modern educational standards. One of the authors of the kit is a methodologist and the other is a historian. This combination of professional approaches made it possible to make the educational and methodological package as balanced as possible both in terms of scientific correctness and in terms of methodological effectiveness. At an accessible level, elementary school students are given a holistic view of the historical process in general and the history of the Fatherland in particular. In addition, the educational and methodological set also reflects the modern humanistic tendencies of historical science, which today pays special attention to the study of the human personality in past eras, the reconstruction of the everyday life of people of the past. The 4th grade textbook is designed on the eve of the basic school course to help schoolchildren master a significant amount of factual material on the history of the Fatherland. In a fascinating way, the book tells not only about political events, but also about cultural phenomena, as well as about outstanding personalities of Russian history. The detailed methodological apparatus of the textbook, which includes a variety of tasks and exercises, allows you to check the progress of schoolchildren at each stage of education. A single educational and methodological set with a textbook is made up of a notebook of creative tasks, a coloring book “With a hero to Ancient Russia” and a book for a teacher. The textbook and notebook are recommended by the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation and included in the Federal List.

Campus Overview
Welcome to Little Big Minds Kennedy. At 28th St and Osborn, this campus represents a new home for our flagship campus. Founded in 2010, the Biltmore campus was where the Little Big Minds story began and where we laid the foundation for deep community connections. It is thanks to the dedication and commitment of that community that we simply outgrew our original home.
@LBM Kennedy we have more room for our ever-growing little BIG minds preschool family. This campus boasts 8 large classrooms, dedicated parking, and plenty of room to stretch legs and grow minds. The natural light and authentic, interactive indoor play-spaces make this campus environment unique. We look forward filling the halls with laughter, inquiry, exploration and curiosity.
Our Environment
Our classroom schedule includes a balance of active and quiet learning activities, large and small group activities, indoor play centers and outdoor play. We believe that life experiences are the basis for all learning. Our teachers provide a nurturing and safe environment for students to learn and explore.
Our teachers are guides. Each day they create opportunities for students to embark on a journey of exploration and discovery. Students are encouraged to ask questions and imagine outcomes. They are invited to share their ideas in small groups and with the whole class and they are encouraged to test their theories. Teachers lead children in a discussion rather than simply telling children the answers. After-all, what could be more fun than uncovering that nugget of learning all on your own?
Our Discovery Centers
Our classrooms are full of magical and intentional learning spaces. Discovery centers are play- objective based areas that are intended to provoke thought and spark imagination:
Literacy/Library – books, pens, papers, loose parts and magazines that inspire early language development, production and reading skills.
Math and Science/Manipulative – materials/loose parts that encourages exploration, counting, grouping and sorting.
Mini Art Studio/Arts – art techniques such as clay, charcoal, wire, watercolors, collage, paint and more, inspire creativity.
Sensory/Light Tables – a place to explore the power of our senses (touch, sound, smell, taste) Home Living/Dramatic Play – for role-playing, language development, imagination and pretend-play.
Blocks: Building with blocks and repurposed stimulates learning in all domains of development, intellectual, physical, and social-emotional and language.
Gathering Time/Nest Time – a time to share stories, review academic content, sing songs., appreciate friends and discuss values.
Cozy Area – A place to self-reflect and self-direct.
Learning doesn’t stop when the kids go outside. Just like the classroom, the playground is divided into specific areas that encourage learning through play.
Your child can choose from a variety of activities, including riding tricycles, exploring the garden, splashing in water tables, and sliding, climbing or jumping on one of several playground apparatuses. Every day is carefully structured to provide children a balance of guided activities and free-play.

McKee Language Schools | Spanish Immersion Preschool & Daycare in Orem and Salt Lake City – Dual Immersion English/Spanish Preschool Education
Teach Kids Spanish Successfully With McKee
Our preschool uses the McKee Language system, a program for teaching children second languages in an atmosphere of play.
Children are functionally fluent in Spanish in less than 500 hours. Dr. McKee has proven, that with developmentally appropriate activities, modeled in an atmosphere of play, love and excitement, kids learn the language and are completely unaware that they are being “taught” Spanish. In this natural learning environment children develop the skills of a second language in our Spanish language preschool.

In this natural learning environment children develop the skills of a second language in our Spanish language preschool.
A child’s brain is twice as active as an adult’s brain and still in development as they grow to adulthood. In this developmental stage a child can learn a second language 8 times faster that an adult. The research concludes that the brain changes, as the child gets older. It becomes more difficult to learn foreign pronunciation and hear the different sounds in the foreign language. As we get older, our own language patterns interference with the new language being learned. A child (particularly one in preschool) doesn’t encounter these same roadblocks as they learn a second language.
Another reason is that becoming fluent in another language takes time. Your children will have less time as they get older and they become involved in school, arts, sports, community, and other extra-curricular activities. Why not have them speaking before they get involved with those other activities? There’s a huge benefit to teach kids Spanish while they are young.

Children at McKee Language Schools learn Spanish in an atmosphere of play. The preschool learning environment is similar to a birthday party: the children learn without ever really thinking that they are being taught Spanish.
In a day at McKee, children will rotate through 25-30 minute hands-on language-rich activities in six centers taught in a 100% Spanish immersion setting. We teach kids Spanish by having children prepare and eat a snack in Kitchen activities, play “cat and mouse” in Games activities, build a toy catapult in Shop activities, make a piñata in Art activities, play kickball in Gym activities, and act out Jack and the Beanstalk in Drama. Each activity center provides a different setting needed for children to learn a wide variety of vocabulary and grammar through practice without even being aware that they are learning it.
Unlike other Spanish language immersion schools, there are no language exercises, memorization drills, worksheets, or dialogues. Read more about our curriculum here.

Language Immersion Schools and Why They Work
Fort Worth dad Matthew Sikes wishes he were bilingual. “All the time,” he shares. “I’m a lawyer, and the more languages you speak, the greater the pool of potential clients. And it would help with witnesses. Plus, knowing other languages opens up cultural experiences you won’t have if you speak only English.”
Little by little, Sikes is learning some Spanish through his daughters. They’re 2 and 4—and take classes at the Spanish-immersion preschool Mi Casita. “I find myself trying to figure out what they said,” Sikes laughs. “I look things up on Google Translate.”
Sikes enrolled his daughters at Mi Casita with the hope that they will one day have the professional and travel opportunities he hasn’t had. He also sees great value for their developing minds. “They’re thinking in different ways and improving their cognition,” Sikes says of the girls. “They’ve really taken to it. I’ve even heard the older one lecturing the younger one in Spanish.”
Sikes and his wife are among a growing number of parents who want their children to be multilingual. It makes sense, given our global society where diverse cultures thrive. According to the U.S. Census, nearly 30 percent of the Texas population (that is, 7.8 million people) speak Spanish at home.
There are private, specialty schools that help children become bilingual as well as a growing dual-language trend in North Texas public schools. Here’s how and why those programs work.
How Immersion Schools Work
Mi Casita—the preschool and daycare in Fort Worth that Sikes’ daughters attend—conducts classes in 100% Spanish. “More than teaching in Spanish, we speak in Spanish,” explains Melissa Page Peter, founder and owner of Mi Casita, which accepts kids from birth to 5 years. “If we did both English and Spanish, the students wouldn’t have as much exposure to Spanish. The more sounds they hear in Spanish, the higher the likelihood of fluency.”
Mi Casita students take in the language through project-based learning—such as creating a toy store and presenting it (in Spanish) to their families. This is in contrast to simply being taught nouns, verbs and the like.
“Project-based learning is engaging, authentic work that leads to very positive learning experiences in general,” says Page Peter. “And my philosophy is that when we align language with that approach, they’ll have more positive experiences with Spanish as well.” Starting your kids young is best. While “better late than never,” Page Peter says “the optimal time is 0-7.”
Camille Laupie-Williams—a Dallas International School (DIS) pre-K3 French teacher—says kids in preschool grasp language quickly because they absorb it intuitively. In contrast, an adult might try to compare and translate what they’re learning to their first language.
“Our students will start to understand directions in French, to participate to our language rituals and to answer questions in Pre-K3,” Laupie-Williams notes. “They will be able to speak back in French in kindergarten.”
They gain skills in other languages too. DIS instructional days are split primarily between French and English, with a third language, Spanish or Mandarin, incorporated beginning in pre-K4.
Even parents who speak another language themselves choose these kinds of schools and programs. Dallas mom Nelyda Villaseñor initially learned Spanish from her parents but gained fluency in dual-language programs. So it was an easy choice to enroll her 3-year-old daughter in bilingual pre-K at Dallas ISD’s Arthur Kramer Elementary.
“I have a few cousins whose parents enrolled them in only-English classes starting in kindergarten, and they can barely speak Spanish,” she shares. “They are not able to write it nor really read it fluently. That makes a huge difference.”
Villaseñor tells us her daughter grows her language abilities mostly through playtime and basic skills building. “I feel like her vocabulary has expanded,” she said. “She’s using fuller sentences now.”
Cultivating Culture
Another important aspect of language learning is immersion in the culture of study. For example, DIS follows the French education model. “We have more breaks during the day,” says Laupie-Williams. “We have three different recesses—that’s a little different from American schools, I think. Playing outside is important for us.”
And the children learn French stories and songs, too, such as classic book Roule Galette and children’s song Une Souris Verte. Plus, there’s one day out of the year that’s dedicated to celebrating all the countries around the world that speak French.
There’s also a multinational feel at Mi Casita, where most of the teachers were born outside of the United States. “We have teachers from Honduras, Mexico, Puerto Rico and Colombia,” says Page Peter. “Their cultural experience, they bring that to the classroom.”
Ultimately, these schools teach kids how to navigate modern life. “It’s that open mind that they get here at DIS,” Laupie-Williams says. “Being aware at such a young age of all the different cultures, all the different languages, is preparing them for the global world that they’re going to grow up in. ”

Spanish for Preschool Children is a comprehensive program that includes a variety of educational activities, active games and fun lessons aimed at expanding vocabulary, developing listening and speaking skills. You can attend classes as a preparation for school.
The author’s program “Polyglotics”
The network of language centers uses a communicative teaching method. Learning is conducted through communication and dialogues. Its key feature is complete immersion in a foreign language environment. The teacher speaks exclusively in Spanish, accompanying his words with visualization methods. This approach allows you to quickly get rid of the language barrier, learn the correct articulation and easily understand the speaker, and, therefore, quickly engage in communication with him.
Spanish courses for preschool children are aimed at all-round development. In the classroom, students train their memory, stimulate mental activity, reveal their creative potential, learn to cooperate in a team and discover leadership qualities.
Course Features
Small groups
up to 6 people
The limited number of students allows the teacher to work individually with everyone, working through weaknesses.
Comprehensive approach
Our methods combine several training programs at once. Classes are guided by beautifully illustrated textbooks and provide linguistic immersion, communication factor and physical response.
Communicative method
In addition to complete immersion in the language, the kids perform exercises aimed at mastering the skills of speaking and listening, and then – to develop reading and writing.
Features of the lesson plan
Spanish for children 4-6 years old in Polyglot is aimed at the gradual development of a large amount of information. When developing the course, the methodologists of the network of centers paid special attention to the peculiarities of the age and mentality of the students. Therefore, the curriculum is enriched with creative exercises, literary and musical five-minute sessions, and interactive games.
Classes are held in close communication with the teacher and peers. The construction of dialogues, imitation of life situations with the distribution of roles is used. Memorization of new words and lexical constructions is carried out not by cramming, but in a natural way. Through fun games, in the creative process, the child naturally enriches vocabulary and learns to speak.

Top 10 Spanish Immersion Programs for International Students ⋆ Study Abroad Guide
It can seem intimidating to start learning Spanish all at once with native speakers around you. However, anyone who has learned a second language knows that the most effective method of learning it is total immersion.
The Spanish immersion programs are fantastic because you are constantly exposed to the language. Spanish immersion programs are useful because they force you to pay attention to the rhythms, patterns, and complexities of the language while encouraging you to converse with it. You learn on the go from native speakers, just like a child does.
Why learn Spanish by immersion
Learning Spanish vocabulary and verb conjugation at a school in your home country can be the first step in finding a new way to express yourself in Spanish. However, to properly understand how native speakers interact, you must have lived in a country where Spanish is your native language.
One of the best things about the immersive program is that many of them include homestay accommodation where you will live with your family, eat with them and even go on excursions. Living in a family, you will see firsthand how people live in the country where you study.
What to look for when choosing a Spanish program
Choosing a Spanish course is not something to be taken lightly. Beware of offers and promotions that seem too good to be true, promising you the magic solution to finally learn Spanish. You should always choose a reputable Spanish school to achieve what you really want.
Don’t fall for cheap deals that claim to be the magic solution for learning Spanish. They play with you.
Check online for Spanish school and course ratings and information about language schools.
Study the entire program and compare it with others.
Another factor to consider before enrolling in a Spanish course is the school’s reputation. Read their reviews online.
Select a school or Spanish course based on proximity to your home. Don’t be afraid to drive to work if the result is better!
How to choose the dive program that’s right for you
When you go through an immersion program in a Spanish-speaking country, you often have to apply your knowledge of Spanish. Instead of grammar and vocabulary exercises, you will have to speak the language.
Spanish will always surround you. You will need to use your Spanish skills to do simple things like grocery shopping or finding your way home.
You will learn from native speakers throughout the procedure. Typically, these speakers will want to help you learn.
The importance of learning from native speakers cannot be overestimated. Not only will you improve your communication skills, but you will also understand how words and phrases are actually used. Getting that kind of knowledge from a textbook can be tricky.
Find a suitable program duration.
A few weeks to a few months is the typical duration of an international Spanish immersion program. It’s unbelievable that someone could master Spanish completely in a few weeks; however, one of the benefits of a compact and short spanish program is that it can help you determine if you want to continue on this journey or not after you complete it.
Please select the correct country.
Travelers who want to learn Spanish by immersion often choose Spain as their first and only destination as it is the place where the language originated. Parts of Spain have mild weather and an inexpensive cost of living compared to many other European countries. The country also has a long history of teaching and promoting its national language. As you learn and practice the language, you will progress faster. By doing daily chores with your host family, such as shopping for groceries and eating together, you acquire the language and learn to think in Spanish.
Balance your experience in and out of class
Taking a language course while traveling is a much more rewarding experience than just sitting in a class in your city. Get to know the language and culture, taste the cuisine, see the local sights and interact with the shopkeepers. These are experiences you will never forget. Choose a country with a good reputation that welcomes guests, has a stable and peaceful political climate, and welcomes people from all over the world to their place of residence.
Choose your accommodation
The best Spanish immersion programs offer homestay programs with reliable and trustworthy families. These carefully selected families are experts in making their visitors feel at ease in their homes. The host family will tell you about local traditions, invite you on special excursions and talk about local events, places of interest and travel. Your host family will also provide you with information about the local economy. Also, depending on the bond you form with your host family, you may have the potential to develop friendships that can last for many years after you return home.

Suppose you are interested in landscapes and rural architecture. In this case, you can take part in a program trip to rural areas, where students can interact with the local people and learn about their cuisine and history, as well as participate in the local music scene if they so desire.
Language immersion in Spain – IH Madrid
International House Madrid has been teaching Spanish since 1986. You will learn practical, real-world Spanish with the support of our qualified teaching staff, allowing you to communicate successfully while enjoying your studies. The exact format of the curriculum depends in part on the proportion of students from each language group. Two way immersion can be used in schools where half of the students speak Spanish and half speak English. If the majority of students speak English, one-way immersion is the most appropriate approach.
Are Spanish immersion programs suitable?
Many people find that participating in an immersion program is the most effective way for students to thrive in a foreign language. Advocacy groups also believe that sending children to an immersion program at an early age is beneficial, which is why full immersion child care and preschool are so popular. In particular, if neither parent speaks a foreign language, they can be very helpful. Why? Children learn much more from other children than from adults, whether for better or worse. As a result, if you are planning to send your child to an immersion school, consider that this can greatly improve foreign language fluency.
What is the Spanish immersion program?
Spanish immersion programs include Spanish as part of the regular school curriculum. Previous knowledge of Spanish is not required. It is designed for students who are fluent in English and Spanish and want to improve their communication and reading skills in both languages. Early exposure to a language increases the likelihood that a child will fully master that language later in life. It is like a child’s brain that learns any language with which they are sufficiently familiar, flawlessly and without accents, if they are adequately learned. According to research, this skill weakens with age and eventually disappears by the time a child reaches high school.
Is it possible to learn Spanish by immersion?
The Spanish immersion programs are fantastic because you get to know the language all the time. The time you spend immersing yourself in a language is valuable because it forces you to pay attention to the rhythms, patterns, and subtleties of the language while encouraging you to converse with it. You learn on the go from native speakers, like a toddler learning a new language.
Although Spanish is widely spoken and one of the most spoken languages in the world, dialects and accents vary from country to country. To prevent dialectical variations and confusion later on, it is recommended that if you have a specific place where you want to work after completing your Spanish study program, you are looking into employment opportunities in the same field.
How do you do Spanish immersion at home?
Immersion is a teaching method that involves prolonged exposure to environments or situations that are native or relevant to the subject being studied. This is especially common when teaching a foreign language and the language being taught, or the target language, is the only language used.
As a language teacher, I have found that there is nothing more effective for mastering a language than total immersion in a language. Reading or watching the news is a great way to test your abilities and find out what’s going on in the world. Wouldn’t it be better to do it in Spanish? CNN en Espanol is a popular Spanish-language news channel for native Spanish speakers.
It’s fantastic if you have the opportunity to live in a country where the language you want to learn is spoken. However, now you can immerse yourself in the experience from the comfort of your own home. Reading blog posts, e-books, articles and essays written in Spanish can help you improve your language skills. You must understand how to achieve your goals in learning Spanish and what principles you must follow in order to be effective and efficient.
Are immersion schools worth it?
The benefit of immersive language learning is that you get the most up-to-date version of the language, including material not found in textbooks. Most importantly, in order to learn correctly, you must have the right mindset. A strong fear of making mistakes will only keep you from progressing, and fluency will only increase if you try to speak with all your shortcomings.
What does research say about immersion?
The very best Spanish immersion schools have a stellar reputation online and offline and are easy to find. Before making a decision, consult with academic institutions and other groups that send representatives to the site, as well as online reviews. A truly effective Spanish immersion program will have an outstanding reputation in the region, the country and the world.

Types of schools in Spain
In Spain, the following types of secondary schools are distinguished:
1. Public (colegios públicos). Only Spaniards or children of citizens with a Spanish residence permit or residence permit study in these schools. The big disadvantage of such schools is the overcrowding of classes.
2. Semi-state (colegios concertados). These schools are funded by the state (local government) or the Catholic Church. Their children receive public education. The emphasis is on learning foreign languages.
3. Private (colegios privados) schools accept children from both Spaniards and foreigners. International private schools are very popular in Spain. These schools use dual programs in the education of one country, for example, England, France, USA, Germany and include subjects according to the Spanish education system (Caxtoncollege in Valencia, etc.).
4. In Spain, there are also private international boarding schools that teach children under the IB, A-level programs. The advantage of this education is: the high quality of education that meets international standards and the financial availability of tuition fees compared to education in other European countries. Teaching in Anglo-Spanish and American-Spanish schools is conducted in English, all Spanish subjects are taught in Spanish. Schoolchildren receive at the end of such schools 2 certificates – Spanish and one of the European countries (depending on the school – English, American, French, etc.)
5. Boarding schools are very popular with foreigners. Teaching is in English, and some of the courses and faculties are in Spanish. The classrooms are small. Boarding schools are divided into 2 types:
Full board (accommodation of students on the school grounds during the school year)
Partial boarding (students live on the campus of the school several days a week)
The emphasis in boarding schools is on religious, sports education, the study of several foreign languages.
Features of education in private schools:
Individual approach to each student
Development of creativity
Emphasis is placed on developing practical skills for later life
Each school has its own unique teaching method

The last step is higher education Educación superior.
Higher education in Spain complies with European and international standards of education, as well as the norms of the Bologna process.
There are 3 cycles of higher education:
Bachelor’s degree – Grado degree (3-4 years of university, depending on specialization)
Master (Master degree) – 1-2 years of study in a narrow specialization, you can enter only after receiving the Grado degree

In addition to schools, you can get an education in Spanish colleges.
The structure of colleges in Spain consists of 4 levels:
1. The first preparatory level – corresponds to the 2nd senior grade of the Spanish school. Pupils study optional subjects (minimum 5 per trimester) necessary for the chosen specialty. Upon completion, students receive a certificate of general complete education.
2. 2nd level (from age 18 or after 1st year of college or after high school). Pupils study 4 subjects in their specialty in the 1st year of study and take an exam in 1 subject to choose from, in the second year – 3 subjects and 3 exams. According to the results of the exams, they receive an AICE (Advanced International Certificate of Education) diploma, which gives them the right to work in their specialty without holding managerial positions.
3. Level 3 (1 year of study) provides an opportunity to improve qualifications or completely change one’s profession. Upon graduation, graduates receive a GNVQ (General National Vocation Qualification) certificate.
4. 4th level – upon completion of a year of study, gives graduates the right to open their own business (for example, a law office or a procedure room) or hold leadership positions.
Other types of education
In addition to the basic levels of education in Spain, there are so-called special types of education (Enseñanzas de régimen especial).

Music
Dance

Tina’s Child Care
Cristina has watched my oldest son (he’s 4 now and in pre-K) and is currently watching my 2 year old daughter. Prior to Cristina, we had my son in a daycare. It was a terrible experience. He was left unsupervised (at the time he was around 2) and ended up facing ant bites – head to toe. He was leftin soiled diapers and had terrible rashes. He screamed and cried and everyday! One day they just closed! After that, I didn’t know what to do! My friend told me about Cristina and thank God she had an opening (for when I returned to work). She helped my son potty train and even got him little gifts to motivate him! She gotten little gifts for them for Christmas and birthdays. They are always clean and she makes sure they have healthy snacks. My kids are picky eaters and sometimes aren’t interested in what I pack – Cristina always has fresh food and snacks. She is extra cautious and makes sure all kids are safe and supervised at all times.
She has been really understanding if I’m running a few minutes late to pick up too.
My babies love Cristina. I never worry about their care. They have always excited to go each day. She treats each child like they are special and loves them like a grandma would.
Cristina is a blessing to my family! We are grateful to have peace of mind knowing our babies are safe and WELL taken care of. I’m happy to provide a reference, always!…

Family Reviews
We absolutely adore this place. The staff are some of the most amazing people I have ever met and my son is disappointed when he can’t go over the weekend. He has made friends his own age and they work with the kids to achieve developmental goals. He’s always happy to “go to school” which makes it so much easier to leave him.

My daughter is in the infant room. The staff are very good and attentive. I feel confident that my child is being taken care of above and beyond! Each day she comes home with a sheet that lets me know what activities she participated in, what she ate, and documentation of her naps and potty schedule. Overall a great experience with peace of mind that my child is being taken care of this far.

Meet Our Director, Faren Manuel
My name is Faren Manuel and I’m the Center Director of The Sunshine House in Little Elm. I have been a part of the Sunshine House family since 2010 as our Explorer’s teacher. I later transferred to our School-age and Pre-K teacher. During my 7 years with the company, I have been able to gain a lot of knowledge and experience with all of the age groups. In July of 2017, I was presented with the opportunity to hold the position of Assistant Director. I have been a part of the Little Elm community since 2004 and I am so honored and excited to take on my role as the Center Director in Little Elm.
I received my Bachelors of Science Degree in Human Development and Family Studies from UNT in 2017. I have my heart in every classroom of our building and cannot wait for what is to come.
When I am not working I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, going to concerts or a movie, art projects, and off roading in my jeep. I believe as an educator we should cherish our children and value them as a whole. Children learn from interactions and it is important to be a positive role model for them. I promise to listen and value the words of the children I care for and do my best to make a positive impact on the life of every family.

Planting and care
The elm genus includes more than 40 species, and these trees received the Russian name “elm” for their flexibility: baskets, rims and sledges were knitted from their bast. Other names of the plant: elm, elm, birch bark. The geographical area of distribution of elms is quite wide: its species grow in certain parts of North America, Europe, the Caucasus, Asia, in areas with a temperate and warm climate.
General description
Elms appeared on earth millions of years ago, they can be attributed to relict tree species. On the ground, they are more common in mixed and broad-leaved forests, they can grow singly. They love fertile and alkaline soils, tolerate a lack of sunlight well and are themselves able to create a dense shade due to their dense crown.
Young elms have a light brown smooth bark, which darkens with age and becomes covered with deep longitudinal furrows, becoming rough and thick. Mature trees of many varieties look powerful, grow up to 40 m in length, and the trunks of individual specimens reach 2 m in diameter. There are also shrub species. The roots of trees germinate to a great depth, in podzolic soils they branch widely to the sides. Elm leaves are very beautiful: rough or smooth, ranging in size from 4 to 20 cm, saturated bright or dark green, triple-toothed, pointed to the edges or oval, lined with relief stripes from the center to the sides, arranged alternately, almost closely on short cuttings. On the branches, they form a kind of lace due to the relief pattern. The shade given by spreading wide elm crowns is almost not translucent by the sun. Leaves wither very early, acquiring a red-brown color and falling off in early autumn.
The elm tree blossoms and bears fruit in April, even before the foliage appears. Its flowers are dioecious, inconspicuous, collected in small yellowish bunches. The fruits are small nuts surrounded by lionfish. On trees, they ripen already with the first onset of heat – in May. Carried by the wind around the area, the fruits fall into the soil and sprout within a few days.
Due to their gnarled furrowed bark, elms are very often attacked by pests or fungus.
Elm species
About 10 varieties of elm grow in Russia. Almost all of them are centenarians – able to reach an age of up to 250-300 years.
Ordinary
Ordinary, or smooth, elm is distributed throughout the European part, in Western Siberia, in the Caucasus. Depending on soil fertility, tree trunks rise from 10 to 25 m, their diameter is up to 1.5 m in old specimens. In urban areas and on soils poor in nutrition, such elms are much lower and thinner. The bark is dark brown in color, embossed, rough, can peel off in small scales. Shoots form a wide elliptical crown. Leaves – up to 15 cm long and 10 cm wide, elongated, framed with sickle-shaped teeth. The front side is dark green, the reverse side is lighter, matte, slightly pubescent. Brown-violet small flowers bloom in April, after 7-12 days in their place small fruits with membranous lionfish are formed. Common elm grows quite quickly, tolerates pruning well, creates a dense shade. It can be used for landscaping parks, alleys, house adjoining territories.
Squat
Small-leaved, or squat, elm or simply elm justifies its name. Compared with related giants, its maximum height is no more than 15 m, it often forms shrub forms. Distribution areas: Transbaikalia, Far East. The elmovik has thin branches, the leaves are rounded, serrated, unequal at the base, pointed at the ends. Size – about 4-7 cm. In the spring, the foliage of the squat elm is pale green, leathery. It gets dark in summer. Inflorescences are small, yellowish-brown. Ilmovik does not like heavily shaded areas, preferring bright places, but he himself creates a rather dense shadow. The composition of the soil is unpretentious, tolerates drought well.
Vane
One of the common Far Eastern species, for the original shape of large leaves resembling sharp blades, is often called split. Grows mainly in highlands. Tree trunks reach 25 m in height, the crown is cylindrical, very dense.
Rough
This species prefers fertile soils, does not tolerate highly saline soils, and is found in deciduous forests of Eastern and Western Europe. The trees are straight-stemmed, with a fairly smooth dark brown bark, up to 30–40 cm high. The leaves are very large – about 17–20 cm, ovate, light green, rough on top, with a hard fleecy surface on the reverse side. The life expectancy of the rough elm is up to 400 years.
Properties and uses of wood
In terms of density, dry elm wood is close to birch – it is 550–600 kg/m³. It has a beautiful noble texture with a pronounced natural pattern. The heartwood is light brown, the sapwood is pale yellow. Ilm materials are characterized by high hardness, resistance to decay and deformation, high resistance to impact loads and compression.
Due to its high density, elm is difficult to cut, split and other types of processing, but bends quite well. The smooth surface of the material perfectly tolerates polishing. Fresh timber during drying practically does not crack and does not warp.
Elm has long been used for the production of bows, wheel rims, yokes, wooden parts of the harness. Dishes were hollowed out from the array. In London, Venice and other European cities, elm wood was used to carve bridge supports, use it in the construction of river dams, locks, the construction of mines, and cellars.
Elm is now more used as a veneer to add artistic value and ennoble lesser quality woods or as part of composite materials for interior decoration. Ilm materials are used for the production of parquet, wooden frames, panels and handles, baseball bats, furniture parts, blanks and products that require bends.
Planting and care
Breeding an elm tree in a personal plot is not difficult. Moreover, this can be done with seeds, since they sprout very rapidly – within a few days. The only drawback is that germination is quickly lost, so you should not miss the moment.
Collected from the tree after the end of flowering, the seeds are placed in a moist nutrient substrate for several days. You can just put them on wet cotton wool. The germs are immediately treated with a fungicide, otherwise the fungus that has appeared will be impossible to destroy.
After 2-3 days, germinated seeds are planted in a container with soil. It is better to use black soil for these purposes so that the plant develops faster. In the absence of nutrient soil, a mixture of humus with leafy soil is suitable. The soil must be loose and well moistened.
Seeds are deepened by 1-2 cm, making the distance between plantings about 25 cm. Topsoil is covered with moss, hay or cotton wool. The soil needs to be moistened daily. After 10 days, it will be possible to observe the young shoots and remove the covering material.
Sprouts are useful to expose to the sun more often. Since elm seeds ripen in April-May, their germination period falls on the end of spring – the beginning of the active vegetation of most plants. In clear and low-wind weather, it is better to leave the container with shoots in the open air: on the balcony, in the garden.
In the first year, elm shoots rise up to 20 cm, in the second year they can be planted in open ground. Similarly, ready-made cuttings or purchased seedlings are planted in spring or autumn.
Young elms are not capricious, undemanding to the composition of the soil, temperature conditions or moisture . However, in the first years they must be protected from strong winds and frosts, wrapping them with special agrofibre for the winter. It is worth remembering that the nutritional value of the soil directly affects the growth rate of trees, so it is advisable to periodically fertilize poor soils with organic matter. It is also necessary to ensure that the soil around the roots is always well loosened.
In hot weather, additional watering will have to be introduced; with regular rains, even young shoots in open ground do not need special moisture.
Elms grow by 40–50 cm per year. Pruning is usually not done in the first years, allowing the crown to grow properly. Remove only dead or diseased branches. As the trees mature, the greenery can begin to be “tamed”, giving an aesthetic appearance.
Elm springtail, scale insects, and leaf beetles are the most common pests of elm. In diseased plants, foliage and branches dry quickly, the bark becomes covered with painful growths. Pests can be controlled by traditional methods: spraying the trees with a solution of copper sulphate and other insecticides and fungicides. Young trees can be easily rid of pests, adult specimens are much more difficult to cure. Trees are especially difficult to tolerate fungus damage, for this reason it is necessary to use fungicides as a preventive measure even at the planting stage.
Planting elms is a great way to plant gardens, squares, suburban and urban landscapes. These trees perfectly tolerate the effects of a gassed atmosphere, purify the air from dust particles, soot and smoke, and create a picturesque street landscape. They are usually planted along roads, near river banks, on the edge of ravines in order to strengthen the soil and prevent landslides.

Features of the Elm
Most experts consider the elm (ulmus laevis) to be as powerful and majestic as the oak. Such a relic breed is a long-liver, its life expectancy is several hundred years. Karagach is quite widely found in Europe and North America. On the territory of Russia, this plant is represented in several subspecies.
Elm is grown both in mixed plantings and singly. It prefers to grow in nutritious soil, however this tree also thrives quite well in poor soil. With a lack of sunlight, such a plant begins to actively reach up. Moreover, elm is a fast-growing plant. In one year, the growth in height is about half a meter, while the girth of the trunk increases to 30 cm.
The height of an adult tree can reach up to 40 m, but there are varieties that look very similar to a shrub. In a young plant, the bark is pale brown and smooth (without roughness). Over the years, its surface is covered with vertical grooves. A strong and well-developed system of elm roots goes into the deep layers of the soil: with a girth of the trunk of 150 cm to a depth of 30 m. However, there are such varieties whose root system grows in breadth, while it covers large areas.
The shape of the sheet plates is elongated-oval, while their edge is serrated. Their size is 4–20 cm. The foliage is short-leaved, it is placed alternately on the branches. With the onset of the autumn months, the leaves change their color from green to brown-red. They fall off pretty quickly.
Elm flowers in early spring before the leaves open. Yellow inflorescences are small. The seeds are small winged nuts. Their full ripening is observed at the end of May, after which the wind carries the seeds in different directions. In the presence of favorable conditions, the seedling may appear in just a few days, after the seed falls to the ground.

Elm species with photo
Elm is the most widespread among all species of the Ilm family. It easily adapts to bad weather conditions and withstands frosts down to minus 28 degrees. The most popular are the following subspecies of elm:
Smooth or common elm (Ulmus laevis)
The height of such a tree can reach up to 25 m. The surface of the trunk is covered with dark brown bark with a clearly visible relief. Leaf blades are large. This variety differs from the rest in the color of the leaves: one surface is dark green, and the other is a lighter shade with slight pubescence. Inflorescences are painted in burgundy-violet color.
Elm (Ulmus pumila)
This low-growing tree has a height of about 15 m. Quite often it looks like a shrub. The species is most widely distributed in the Far East. Medium-sized leaf plates are painted in a greenish color. During flowering, the plant is decorated with small brown-yellow inflorescences.
Scotch or mountain elm (Ulmus glabra)
Prefers fertile soil. Most often, the plant can be found in mixed forests. Compared to other varieties, the bark of this elm is the smoothest. The height of the tree is about 40 m. The surface of the green large leaf plates is uneven.

Distribution
Elm is found naturally in Europe and the Scandinavian Peninsula. Temperature drops are not terrible for such a plant, but if the air temperature drops to minus 30 degrees and below, then freezing of young branches may occur. On the territory of Russia, elm is found in the Southern Urals, in Western Siberia, the Volga region, etc.
Planting outdoors
Planting
Planting an elm outdoors is easy. To do this, you need dried seed material that has matured well. Seedlings will appear a few days after sowing. It should be remembered that the seeds lose their germination very quickly, so it is better not to delay sowing.
Step-by-step instructions for sowing:
Seeds are collected after the flowering of the elm is complete. Next, the seeds are placed in wet cotton wool or sown in a moistened substrate. Before this, it is recommended to treat the seeds with an antifungal drug.
After a few days, the seeds are sown in a container filled with potting mix. Chernozem is best suited for sowing, as it will accelerate the growth of seedlings. You can also use leaf humus. Whatever substrate you choose, it should be moist and soft.
Bury the seeds about 10–20 mm into the substrate. In this case, the distance between the holes should be approximately 25 centimeters. From above, the soil mixture is covered with a layer of dried grass, sphagnum moss or cotton wool. Moisturizing the substrate is carried out daily. After about a week and a half, a seedling should appear, after which you need to remove the covering material for good.
Seedlings should be exposed to direct sunlight as often as possible. If there is no wind and precipitation outside, then it is recommended to take the container with seedlings to fresh air (in the garden or on the balcony). By the end of the first year of growth, the height of the seedling will be about 20 centimeters. Its planting in open ground can be carried out in the second year.
Elm care
For several years, while the plant is young, it must be protected from frost and strong winds. The plant needs shelter for the winter with a special covering material. Do not forget that the development of the root system is directly related to the nutritional value of the soil. In this regard, if the soil is poor, then regular fertilization will be required. And do not forget to systematically loosen the surface of the soil near the plant.
During the year, the young tree grows quite quickly and reaches a height of about 0.4–0.5 m. The branches of the first and second years are not pruned, this is necessary for the correct formation of the crown. Cut off only dead or diseased branches. Crown pruning can be carried out during the growing period of the tree.
Propagation methods
Elm can be propagated by seed (detailed above), but cuttings can also be used. Harvesting of cuttings is carried out in late autumn. Treat it with a root stimulant. Put the cut in a container of water and wait for it to grow roots. Planting the cuttings in open ground is carried out when the first roots form in it. It is planted in a special fertile and loose soil.
Diseases and pests
The most common pests on the elm tree are scale insects, springtails and leaf beetles. You can understand that the plant is sick by the following signs: the appearance of growths on the surface of the bark and the drying of the crown. To get rid of pests and diseases, it is recommended to treat the tree with an insecticidal or fungicidal preparation, and a solution of copper sulfate is also often used.
While the tree is young, it is much easier to cure it of various diseases. Old trees are extremely difficult to treat, fungal diseases are especially dangerous for them. In this regard, already during the planting of elm, it is recommended to use antifungal drugs.
Uses and Meanings
Elm fruits, bark and leaves are widely used in alternative medicine. However, before using elm-based products for the treatment of any disease, it is necessary to consult with your doctor. The fact is that such treatment has certain contraindications and unwanted side effects.
A decoction of leaves and bark has a pronounced anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and wound healing effect. The extract is used in the treatment of diseases of the heart, thyroid gland, kidneys, blood vessels, etc.
Decoction is used for throat diseases. For example, with angina, it is used for regular gargling. The leaves are used to make a tea that helps with constipation. Bark baths are recommended for kidney diseases and hemorrhoids. For rashes on the skin, tincture is used.
Elm wood has excellent properties and therefore it is widely used in industrial production. Often, elm wood is used as an alternative, replacing more expensive tree species with it. The fact is that such wood has a texture that allows you to imitate valuable varieties, it has a rather light color. Elm is even liked by lovers of mahogany. Paintings are made from elm, as well as furniture for the home.
Elm wood has a high density: approx. 600 kg/m 3 . Its cut has a spectacular texture, due to which it is widely used in carpentry. Such wood is resistant to decay, and it is also very difficult to saw or split it. Great for polishing.
In ancient times, elm was also popular with carpenters. And its bark was used to make paint. Such a tree is often used to decorate city streets and parks.

Landscape use
The mighty elm has a lush, domed crown. Due to the fact that the foliage is very dense, it is able to protect residential areas from gas, dust and dirty air, trapping them. In addition, the elm looks very impressive and gives a thick shadow.
Often, landscape designers create various figures from the crown of elm tree due to the fact that the plant has dense branches. A well-developed strong root system helps to strengthen the slopes of ravines, banks of rivers and lakes.
Such a tree is often planted in the local area. It is used not only for decoration, but also to strengthen the soil. This allows you to protect the nutrient soil from slipping, blurring and weathering.
When choosing an elm variety and a place to plant it, it is important to consider the size of a mature tree. To date, there are both very large varieties of elm, and miniature ones. For example, there will be few low elms in a vast area, and large tall trees are not well suited for the local area.

Description of the rough elm
Rough elm is a tree with a round or semi-oval crown with large leaves. It can grow up to 40 meters high, the trunk reaches 80 cm in circumference. The bark is brown, on the surface of the crack.
The leaf is up to 15 cm long, oblong, widened, with teeth along the edges, the roots are short. The color of the leaves is light green, in the autumn they turn yellow.
Elm has flowers and anthers. The female flowers are clustered and sit on small pedicels; the male anthers are purple. The tree blooms in early spring, the process lasts 7 days.
The fruits of the tree are winged nuts, small in size. Fruit ripening occurs immediately after flowering. Elm is a fast-growing tree, grows well on loose fertile soil, moderately moistened. Salt soil does not tolerate drought well, but calmly tolerates drought. May die in harsh winter.
Rough elm is very well suited for landscaping urban areas. It can be planted both singly and in groups. The tree is quite common in Russia (European part) and regions of the North Caucasus.
Reproduction. Propagated in autumn, fully mature seeds. Young plants can be transplanted. To achieve the desired variety, the plant must be grafted.
Cultivation. This is a fast-growing tree, but capricious. He loves the sun and good fertile soil moderately moistened. Winter, without a strong cold, endures easily. Trees growing in gardens and parks need to form a crown. Elm normally tolerates city conditions and polluted air.
Diseases and pests. Dutch disease, the main disease of the tree. The causative agents of this disease are elm sapwood. When the plant is already infected, young branches begin to wither and turn yellow, after which they die and the whole tree suffers. To prevent this from happening, biostimulants and organic top dressing are used. Thus, the tree, and its root system, becomes stronger to various stresses. Trees affected by the disease should be uprooted immediately.
Use of rough elm. The plant has strong wood, quite elastic and durable. It is difficult to split and process, but it is easy to grind. The drying process occurs moderately, but there is a possibility of all kinds of distortions and cracks. Such wood is used in finishing works and for creating pieces of furniture. With its help, lathes, carts, machines for agriculture, inventory are created. It is used when decorating alleys in park areas.

General description
The history of elm goes back several million years, so the tree belongs to relic species. Trees grow both singly and as part of mixed forests, they prefer fertile soils, but they also grow well on poor soils. Elms do not suffer from lack of sunlight; growing to a height of up to 40 m, they themselves create a shadow for undersized plants. The elm trunk reaches two meters in diameter, but there are undersized varieties close to shrubs.
The trunks of young trees are covered with smooth light brown bark, older trees can be distinguished by dark rough bark with deep vertical furrows. Due to the fact that the elm bark is very clumsy, insect pests or parasitic fungi easily settle in it.
Elm leaves are not to be confused with other : they are serrated, oval in shape, lined with relief parallel stripes from the center to the sides. The size of the leaves is 4-20 cm, the arrangement is alternate on short cuttings. With the advent of autumn, the dark green color of the foliage is replaced by red-brown hues, the yellowed leaves fall off very quickly.
Flowering and fruiting of the tree occur in April, when the leaves have not blossomed.
Small yellowish flowers in bunches, fruits are winged nuts. Fruit ripening ends at the end of May, dry lionfish with a rustle are carried by the wind throughout the district. When placed in favorable soil, the seeds germinate within a few days.
Elm species
Elms are long-lived trees that can grow for three hundred years. About ten varieties of elm grow on the territory of Russia, most often you can find the following species:
Smooth elm (common elm). The height of the tree does not exceed 25 m, the trunk is dark brown, embossed. The leaves are large, 15 cm long, about 10 cm wide, with crescent-shaped teeth along the edges. A distinctive feature of the common elm is the color of the leaves: on the upper side they are dark green, on the lower side they are light, with a small edge. The flowers of the tree have a brownish-purple hue.
Squat elm. From the name it is clear that the tree differs from its relatives in its small size – the tree does not grow above 15 m, often grows as a shrub. Other names of this species are elm, small-leaved elm. The leaves are small (4-7 cm), pale green in spring, dark green in summer. The flowers are small, yellowish-brown.
Rough elm. Grows only on fertile soils, often found in mixed forests. The bark of the rough elm is smoother than that of other members of the genus, the trunk is straight, up to 40 m high. The leaves are large (up to 20 cm), light green, rough.
Wood application
Elm wood is very dense, density values are about 600 kg/m 3 . A beautiful texture is visible on the cut of the trunk, the core is light brown, the underbark has a pale yellow color. Ilm wood is resistant to rotting and warping , difficult to split or cut, while being highly polished.
Due to its properties, elm wood has long been used for the production of wheel rims, dishes, rocker arms. Also, the material was used in the construction of bridges and dams, in equipping mines and cellars. Currently, elm wood is used in the form of veneer for interior decoration.
Elm is used to make parquet, parts of wooden furniture, frames, panels. Often the material is combined with lower quality wood species to give a more aesthetic appearance to products.
Medicinal properties
Medicinal properties of elm are little known, but people who have tried to be treated with decoctions and infusions from the bark and leaves of the tree always keep at home prepared dry elm raw materials. The chemical composition of elm leaves and bark is diverse : it contains ascorbic acid, tannins, steroids, flavonoids, phenolcarboxylic acids.
Elm infusions and decoctions reduce inflammation, have an antibacterial effect, accelerate wound healing. Plant extracts are used to treat diseases of the kidneys, skin, musculoskeletal system, heart and blood vessels, and the thyroid gland. A decoction of elm bark is used to gargle with sore throat, tea from the leaves is drunk for constipation. For hemorrhoids and kidney diseases, baths with the addition of a decoction of the bark are useful. The infusion is used as a lotion for skin rashes, hard-healing wounds.
When treating with infusions and decoctions of elm bark and leaves, it must be taken into account that plant materials can cause hypersensitivity reactions, which manifest themselves in the form of allergies. You also need to understand that not all diseases can be cured by folk methods, if symptoms worsen, you must definitely see a doctor.
Planting and caring for a tree
Growing elm in your home garden is very easy due to the high germination of seeds in the first few days after ripening. With each passing day, the ability to germinate is lost, so you need to not miss the moment when the seeds fell from the tree.
Basic tips for growing elm:
It is recommended that the harvested seeds be treated with a fungicide solution before sowing – this increases the likelihood that future shoots will be healthy and viable. Seeds are wrapped in wet gauze or cotton wool for germination, when sprouts appear after 2-3 days, they are transferred to a container with earth. Ideally, if black soil is used for planting, humus can be mixed with leafy soil.
Sprouted seeds are planted at a depth of 1-2 cm, between adjacent shoots a distance of at least 25 cm should be maintained. It is necessary to constantly monitor that the earth does not dry out, to maintain moisture, the soil is mulched with moss or hay.
After 10-14 days, the young trees will be sufficiently rooted and will be able to extract moisture from the deeper layers of the soil, so the covering material can be removed. Plants are placed on the sunny side, in calm weather they are taken out to the balcony or garden.

I think that Academy House is a very friendly place to learn things. Even for the older kids like me. When we get off from school Aftercare gives you a snack that is always up to date. We get to do our homework in peace, and at the end of the day if your lucky we get to go to the gym. Also the administrator’s keep a good job leaving every thing organized. While the cook always have a good way of keeping things clean and sanitized, while the food is delicious. The teachers have also a big part to play they are all so nice and kind. They are so nice they could be like your best friend. I’ve been there from such a little age and I think I would not regret it. THANKS FOR ALL THE THING ACADEMYHOUSE DOES!!!

Academy House is a warm and loving school that provides only the best for their students. As a former teacher there, I personally can share the beauty that was created in my classroom! We are aligned with the Pre School standards and teach the enriching curriculum that is High Scope. We focus on STEM studies, writing, math, language arts, and more. By the end of the school year, my parents are always proud to see how much their child has grown. It is important to remember that a lot of the times people leave a review, it is sadly due to a moment of anger. I wish more parents would take the time to discuss the positive impact we have had over the last several years. I recommend this school to anyone who wishes for their child to receive a great education.

There are many violations and hazards in this school who’m which I as an employee had addressed to management, but nothing get’s resolved. Some classes are in need of repairs, and are not suitable for children to be in. As for the staff, very young and inexperienced. It seems like management put’s more interest on money paid by the parents instead of investing on an adequate environment for the children. There’s even holes on the walls in some classrooms, bathrooms and play areas. Also an infestation of mice and roaches that appear on the toy areas. I’ve personally seen it. Some classrooms are in violation of being overcrowded with children, and when the city inspectors come in the children are immediately separated into different classrooms until the inspectors leave. I’ve even seen some children being escorted out of the Day Care. Makes me wonder if this establishment is really for the development of the children attending or for personal benefit of the manager/owner.

Apache2 Debian Default Page: It works
Apache2 Debian Default Page
This is the default welcome page used to test the correct
operation of the Apache2 server after installation on Debian systems.
If you can read this page, it means that the Apache HTTP server installed at
this site is working properly. You should replace this file (located at
/var/www/html/index.html) before continuing to operate your HTTP server.
If you are a normal user of this web site and don’t know what this page is
about, this probably means that the site is currently unavailable due to
maintenance.
If the problem persists, please contact the site’s administrator.
Debian’s Apache2 default configuration is different from the
upstream default configuration, and split into several files optimized for
interaction with Debian tools. The configuration system is fully documented in
/usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian.gz. Refer to this for the full
documentation. Documentation for the web server itself can be
found by accessing the manual if the apache2-doc
package was installed on this server.
The configuration layout for an Apache2 web server installation on Debian systems is as follows:
apache2.conf is the main configuration
file. It puts the pieces together by including all remaining configuration
files when starting up the web server.
ports.conf is always included from the
main configuration file. It is used to determine the listening ports for
incoming connections, and this file can be customized anytime.
Configuration files in the mods-enabled/,
conf-enabled/ and sites-enabled/ directories contain
particular configuration snippets which manage modules, global configuration
fragments, or virtual host configurations, respectively.
They are activated by symlinking available
configuration files from their respective
*-available/ counterparts. These should be managed
by using our helpers
a2enmod,
a2dismod,
a2ensite,
a2dissite,
and
a2enconf,
a2disconf
. See their respective man pages for detailed information.
The binary is called apache2. Due to the use of
environment variables, in the default configuration, apache2 needs to be
started/stopped with /etc/init.d/apache2 or apache2ctl. Calling /usr/bin/apache2 directly will not work with the
default configuration.
By default, Debian does not allow access through the web browser to any file apart of those located in /var/www,
public_html
directories (when enabled) and /usr/share (for web
applications). If your site is using a web document root
located elsewhere (such as in /srv) you may need to whitelist your
document root directory in /etc/apache2/apache2. conf.
The default Debian document root is /var/www/html. You
can make your own virtual hosts under /var/www. This is different
to previous releases which provides better security out of the box.
Please use the reportbug tool to report bugs in the
Apache2 package with Debian. However, check existing bug reports before reporting a new bug.
Please report bugs specific to modules (such as PHP and others)
to respective packages, not to the web server itself.

Obtaining Copies
If an image is displaying, you can download it yourself. (Some images display only as thumbnails outside
the Library of Congress because of rights considerations, but you have access to larger size images on
site.)
Alternatively, you can purchase copies of various types through
Library of Congress Duplication Services.
If a digital image is displaying: The qualities of the digital image partially
depend on whether it was made from the original or an intermediate such as a copy negative or
transparency. If the Reproduction Number field above includes a reproduction number that starts
with LC-DIG…, then there is a digital image that was made directly from the original
and is of sufficient resolution for most publication purposes.
If there is information listed in the Reproduction Number field above:
You can use the reproduction number to purchase a copy from Duplication Services. It will be
made from the source listed in the parentheses after the number.
If only black-and-white (“b&w”) sources are listed and you desire a copy showing
color or tint (assuming the original has any), you can generally purchase a quality copy of
the original in color by citing the Call Number listed above and including the catalog
record (“About This Item”) with your request.
If there is no information listed in the Reproduction Number field above:
You can generally purchase a quality copy through Duplication Services. Cite the Call Number
listed above and include the catalog record (“About This Item”) with your request.

Duplication Services Web site.
Access to Originals
Please use the following steps to determine whether you need to fill out a call slip in the Prints
and Photographs Reading Room to view the original item(s). In some cases, a surrogate (substitute image) is
available, often in the form of a digital image, a copy print, or microfilm.
Is the item digitized? (A thumbnail (small) image will be visible on the left.)
Yes, the item is digitized.
Please use the digital image in preference to requesting the original. All images can be
viewed at a large size when you are in any reading room at the Library of Congress. In some
cases, only thumbnail (small) images are available when you are outside the Library of
Congress because the item is rights restricted or has not been evaluated for rights
restrictions.
As a preservation measure, we generally do not serve an original item when a digital image
is available. If you have a compelling reason to see the original, consult with a reference
librarian. (Sometimes, the original is simply too fragile to serve. For example, glass and
film photographic negatives are particularly subject to damage. They are also easier to see
online where they are presented as positive images.)
No, the item is not digitized. Please go to #2.
Do the Access Advisory or Call Number fields above indicate that a non-digital surrogate exists,
such as microfilm or copy prints?
Yes, another surrogate exists. Reference staff can direct you to this
surrogate.
No, another surrogate does not exist. Please go to #3.
If you do not see a thumbnail image or a reference to another surrogate, please fill out a call slip in
the Prints and Photographs Reading Room. In many cases, the originals can be served in a few minutes.
Other materials require appointments for later the same day or in the future. Reference staff can
advise you in both how to fill out a call slip and when the item can be served.
To contact Reference staff in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room, please use our
Ask A Librarian service or call the reading room between 8:30 and
5:00 at 202-707-6394, and Press 3.

On the morning of the 25th they reached the edge of the Hill and encamped near a large old tulip tree, known as ‘ud Boom’ to the early settlers and ‘King of the Woods’ to the later ones. The area is now known as Waldo Avenue, between Henry Street and Magnolia Avenue. The tree was cut down on December 20, 1871. Lafayette’s headquarters were on Place Van Wagenen at the northwest corner of Academy Street and Place Bergen. Mr. Taylor claims “in the garden of the old parson’s grounds on the northwest side of the square,” where he entertained General Washington, who came from Hackensack, at dinner. Lunch was prepared in Van Wagenen’s weaving workshop and eaten under an apple tree. This tree was blown away by the wind on September 3, 1821, and a piece of it was made into a very beautiful cane in a gilded frame, with the inscription: “Shaded the hero and his friend Washington in 1779 “The War of Independence was won faster than the renovation of the historic Apple Tree House in Jersey City.” NJ.com .

Walkthrough 9 Jersey City Armory0028 [5] it enters the Journal Square District and Academy Street two blocks east of Bergen Square. Jersey City Municipal Courts are also close to the intersection. At Sip Avenue the bridge crosses the former Pennsylvania Railroad Branch of Jersey City cut. It was at this location that the 1910 Hudson and Manhattan Railroad opened Summit Avenue Station [6] which is now part of the Journal Square Transportation Center used by the Port Authority’s Trans Hudson rapid transit system. On the southeast side of the bridge is the New Jersey State Office Building.

The neighborhood is the county of Hudson County where the Hudson County Courthouse attraction is located. The concentration of Filipino-Americans creates Little Manila, and one long block to the west is the India Square district. After crossing the Bergen Arches, the Long Dock Tunnel, and the Divided Highway, Summit Avenue enters the central section of Jersey City Heights, and passes Jersey City Reservoir No. 3 (Reserve) [9] and Pershing Field, a major park in the area. The avenue is becoming more residential, with examples of Victorian and Edwardian-era homes, and pre-war low-rise apartment buildings. The Second Reformed Church of Hudson City is located on the Avenue. [10]

Parents share their experience with Gardens Learning Center
Welcomed with Open Arms
Fifteen years ago our son Rudy became a part of the Gardens Learning Center family. That is when our journey with this wonderful establishment began. With the love of the owners, Susie and Orlando Puyol, he was welcomed with open arms. With a quality curriculum and certified teachers Rudy did wonderfully. Not only did he feel comfortable he excelled in their program and entered Elementary school in the gifted program.
Ellen and Rudy Chacon
Support & Encouragement
GLC has been one of the best decisions we could have made. Ashley has enjoyed her years there with all the teachers and staff, and they have made us feel loved and welcome. They have been nurturing and have provided Ashley with support and encouragement socially, educationally, and spiritually. In addition GLC has allowed for friendships to develop and flourish for not only Ashley, but for us too as parents with other families and staff at GLC.
Jeannie Kay
Forever Indebted
As working parents, we knew we would have to find a daycare for her. We were lucky to live down the street from GLC. We stopped by one day, and met the staff. At the time, all we could do was trust and have faith that our child would let us know somehow that this was the right place for her. It is five years later and this establishment is now our family’s second home.
Randy & Jennifer Raimondi
A Christian Approach
When we were left with very little time to do our research on childcare options for our son, Gardens Learning Center came into our lives. We knew within minutes that this was exactly where he should be. The unconditional love he received from every corner of their walls was tangible daily when coming and going. Activities were always age appropriate, so very creative and plentiful. It has launched our son into a life filled with love of learning.
The Miller Family
Wonderful Care
Thank you so much for providing such wonderful care for our son. Carson has enjoyed the past 10 months learning and growing at Gardens Learning Center. When I was pregnant looking for daycares I was searching for a center that was small with wonderful staff, Christian based, and somewhere I felt safe and assured leaving my son at everyday. GLC has provided all that and more.
The Reinke Family
High Fives & Hugs
Gardens Learning Center has been a blessing for our family this year. Our daughter arrives at school each morning with a big smile on her face because her teachers and other staff members greet her with high fives and hugs. The outpouring of love is incredible, and it is easy to see the amount of care that everyone at GLC provides.
The Borrows Family
Loving Environment
When the twins, Gigi and Collin, were 4 years old I decided to go back to work. I had a plan. They would attend the preschool my eldest daughter attended, they would be happy, I would have peace of mind, and all would be well. Fortunately, that was not God’s plan. The first time I met Ms. Susie and visited GLC, I instinctively knew that this was the perfect school for my kids. Seeing them happy and knowing that they are learning in a safe and loving environment is a wonderful blessing.
The Rouzard Family
Relocating from Europe
After relocating from Europe to Florida we began researching the options for childcare in the Palm Beach Gardens area for our 1-year-old daughter. We spoke with and met with various types of providers and determined Gardens Learning Center was the best fit for our needs. Not only did we like the balance of daily activities, we also liked that it’s family owned and we were welcomed in to their loving family from day one.
Hanne & Rob Tuinman
Care & Compassion
Thank you so much for all the care and compassion you have shown our girls since we came to GLC in 2008. We truly feel that both Camryn & Addison not only had a great start to their many years of education, but also were loved and cared for when we were away from them. Camryn had a wonderful 5+ years here and made many wonderful friendships along the way. We will forever look back fondly on all our girls memories of GLC. Thanks again!
Katie & Kevin Wilkes
Nurturing & Learning
It’s hard to believe that 5 years have gone by, but Matthew is now a well-prepared Kindergartner thanks to nurturing and learning at GLC. As a new mom I searched to find the best environment for our 1st son, and just looking at the pictures on the GLC web site of the happy children performing in a Christmas Pageant reassured us that GLC was the place that he would be cared for with Christ-like compassion.

Hear what parents have to say about Guidepost Montessori
Changing the world, one student at a time
We are a school where children find the joy in learning — and thus make it possible for them to continue learning for the rest of their lives.
To think mathematically. To solve problems. To create things. To encounter great literature that inspires their character development. To build themselves as capable, efficacious beings. To place themselves in history and in society. To spark meaningful friendships and deep personal values that last a lifetime.
Our goal at Guidepost Montessori is to serve each individual child, to help them realize their limitless potential, and the opportunities they will have to create real and lasting change throughout their lifetime.
Hear from our Guidepost Families
Our 2 and 4-year-old kids attend Guidepost Montessori 5 days a week, and we are very pleased with the professionalism, care, daily updates shared on their progress and overall good feeling that we get when we drop off and pick them up each day. Highly recommend the school!
“Guidepost has been a perfect fit”
Guidepost has been a perfect fit for our pre-schooler! The staff at Guidepost are truly amazing. The guides are compassionate, understanding, and informative. I love the app they use to provide daily updates about what my little one is learning. Since enrolling at Guidepost, my daughter’s independence has increased, she’s learned skills to more effectively express her emotions when she’s upset, and she has learned so many things! Each day on our drive home she tells me about her daily artwork, the fun playground, and the new lessons she learned. Aside from the education component, the community is phenomenal. The school has hosted multiple virtual events, including pumpkin painting and hot cocoa in October and a book fair!
“The best decision we have made”
Enrolling our daughter at Guidepost has been THE BEST decision we have made. We were nervous because she is so young and due to COVID, hadn’t been around many other children or had any experience in a school environment but the administrators and guides at Guidepost were welcoming, patient, helpful and kind. After only 3 weeks, our daughter LOVES school and can’t wait to go each morning. And we see her developing new skills in front of our eyes. We could not be happier with our experience at Guidepost!

Language Immersion Options
Children under the age of six absorb language effortlessly, which is why we are pleased to offer bilingual environments. In our Spanish Immersion program, children learn both Spanish and English literacy skills, however, the prevailing language spoken throughout the day is Spanish. The overall emphasis on Spanish rapidly increases fluency, as children feel naturally compelled to communicate with their Spanish-speaking guides. Learn more about our Spanish Immersion program here.

General Information
On a picturesque coastline with spacious beaches and lush parks, washed by the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Palm Beach is located – a modern resort town with a high standard of living and excellent conditions for recreation. The city got its name after the shipwreck of the ship “Providencia”, heading in January 1878 with a cargo of coconuts from Havana to Barcelona. The settlers who lived here saved valuable cargo and set up a coconut plantation, amazing for these places. Many of the early settlers got rich very quickly, as there was no end to orders for coconuts, which were bought at any price.

How much to charge for an after-school child care gig
Before you head into an interview for an after-school nanny or babysitter job, it’s important to put some time and research into pay rates. The more you know about the going rates for your area and the job at hand, the better off you’ll be when it’s time to negotiate pay on your own behalf.
During one of my first interviews for an after-school child care job, I didn’t do any research to determine my pay rates. I was inexperienced and thought the parents would have a fair rate in mind. The interview went well, and I felt confident the family would offer me the position. However, when they asked, “How much do you charge?” I just said, “That depends on your budget.” That worked out well for them, they said, because they could only afford to pay $150 a week.
“I learned to always come to an interview with a rough hourly and weekly estimate in mind.”
— LATASHA DOYLE, FORMER NANNY
My heart sank. The position required 20 hours a week, plus transportation and meal prep. In the end, I had to turn down their offer. The family was very disappointed, and I felt awful. After that day, though, I learned to always come to an interview with a rough hourly and weekly estimate in mind.
Doing a little bit of legwork beforehand can prevent you from experiencing that same sticky situation when you’re applying to after-school positions. Here’s how you can determine an after-school care pay rate that works for both you and the family.
Determining rates for basic after-school care
When deciding how much to charge for your after-school care services, consider the national average.
According to Care.com’s 2022 Cost of Care Survey, parents paid part-time, after-school sitters an average of $261 per week for one child. After-school sitters made an average of $17.40 per hour, working about three hours a day, or a total of 15 hours per week. Full-time nannies made an average of $694 per week, or about $17. 35 per hour, for one child for a 40-hour workweek.

That said, some areas may have higher costs of living, so it is helpful to find the average hourly or weekly rates for your area. Find the going rate where you live using the babysitting rates calculator.
Jenny Ochoa, a veteran child care provider from Miami, recommends browsing after-school job listings for help with rates. “I look at families’ hourly or weekly preferences before I really hammer down on my rates,” Ochoa says.
Common factors that impact after-school care rates
The going rates and job postings aren’t the only things that should be guiding your rate research. Consider some of the other common factors that can affect your pay rates.
After-school care experience
Families often want someone to step in and manage the after-school rush without much guidance.
“While I wouldn’t charge a ton more for your years of experience, I would recommend at least $1 to $2 more per hour,” says Rachelle Gershkovich, author and founder of Maternal Instincts, a night nanny agency in Denver.
Longer or more flexible hours
Some parents have a “normal” 9-5 work day, and some don’t. If the family you want to work with keeps nontraditional hours or the schedule changes by the day, you may need to charge more or keep an hourly rate (rather than a weekly one).
Transportation
Some after-school sitters or nannies ask for a higher rate to account for the use of their car and the expenses associated with it. Note: Remember, it’s your responsibility to track your mileage and related expenses for tax purposes.
Household duties
Pet care, housekeeping, grocery shopping, meal prep — all of these are additional after-school services you can offer. It’s often easiest to find a flat rate for your “full service,” but families may want to pay you separately for occasional things like housekeeping or picking up the dry cleaning.
Tutoring
If you offer tutoring services, you may be able to charge more. You can check current after-school tutoring job listings to find out what rates tutors are charging in your area. While you likely can’t charge a typical tutoring rate on top of your hourly or weekly care rate, it is something to take into account when you figure your cost.
Safety certifications or health training
Do you have certifications or training that could boost your rates? Are you specialized in caring for infants or have you worked with children with special needs? Make sure to take this into account when setting your rate.
“A la carte” services
Many parents need basic care for their kids, but they’d also love to find someone who offers more.
“I’d be willing to pay a portion of the normal rate for someone who could teach my kid to swim or do something ‘out of the norm,’” says Julie Macon, a mom of two from Golden, Colorado.
Dog walking, packing suitcases and watching kids on the weekend are just a few things you may offer to increase rates or earn extra money.
Other cost considerations to keep in mind
In addition to all the factors listed above, there are a few elements that new after-school nannies and sitters may not know to consider when figuring out their rates. These include:
Parents’ budgets
Parents need help with their kids after school, but that doesn’t mean they can pay as much as someone seeking full-time care. As Mandy Leslie, mom of two from Chicago, puts it: “Some after-school sitters cost just as much as full-time care. That is really hard on our budget. ”
Early arrival
While you may only see the children for three to four hours a day as an after-school care sitter or nanny, you will often need to get in a school pickup line early or get to the bus stop before the children. Make sure you consider the extra time when calculating your rates.
Fewer hours
Fewer hours means less pay than a full-time position, but with just as many expectations (sometimes more, if you count homework help and/or meal prep). Know exactly what you need to make before accepting an offer; it’s not fair to you or the family if you’re unhappy with your rates.
Unexpected “full” days
School isn’t always in session. In addition to a “regular” weekly rate for school weeks, you should also have rates for full days, like:
Sick or snow days.
School in-service days.
Holiday breaks.
Summer expectations
Talk to the family about their summer needs during your initial interview. Then, work to develop a summer rate (if it’s a good fit).
Know your worth — and charge it
Once you’ve figured out your after-school care rates, be confident in them. Gershkovich adds that after-school positions are often “the hardest to fill” because of the nontraditional hours and extensive needs these families have. That means, if after-school care is right for you, there are families looking for you.
Know what you want to charge and which services you can offer. Then, share your rates confidently.
Get it in writing
When you and your employers come to an agreement on your rate for after-school care or any other duties, get it in writing. A nanny contract or babysitter contract can help ensure everyone is on the same page about expectations and rates and the services that will be given in exchange.
How much should I pay for after-school child care?
Hiring an after-school babysitter or nanny to care for your kids at home between the end of the school day and the end of your work day — and perhaps for an hour or two after that to transition from evening to nighttime — can be a huge stress reliever. Some sitters or nannies may stay to watch kids while parents cook and/or settle in or help with baths or bedtime rituals.
“It was the best decision of my life,” says Michaelann H., a real estate director and mom of three in Tampa, Florida. “When you get home from work and school, the kids need food and homework [help] and your attention and baths — but there is still laundry and dishes to do. And how do you pay attention to the screaming baby while trying to cook healthy meals?”
For parents and kids, the benefits of after-school care are clear, but how much will it cost? According to Care.com’s 2022 Cost of Care Survey, parents paid after-school sitters an average of $261 per week. After-school sitters made an average of $17.40 per hour, working about three hours a day, or a total of 15 hours per week. Nannies made an average of $694 per week, or $17.35 per hour, for a 40-hour workweek.

That said, a variety of factors go into a nanny or babysitter’s wage. Here are eight things to consider when deciding how much to pay an after-school caregiver for their valuable work.
1. Location
Child care rates can vary widely from place to place. For example, in the Chicago area, the going rate for a sitter to watch one child averages $15.75 per hour, but in Seattle, Washington, it averages $19.75 per hour, according to the Care.com babysitting rates calculator. You’ll see the same cost differences city to city in nanny rates.
To get a sense of what child care providers earn near you, ask around. Family and friends who are parents or parents in a local Facebook group might be a good place to start.
To get a close estimate, you can also check out the Care.com calculators:

Cost of child care calculator (full-time rates)
2.
Number of children
“I pay a lot higher than most parents because we have multiple kids and dogs, and I want my sitter to keep coming back!” says Jene L., a mom, author and TV host in Rotterdam, New York.
The more kids you have, the more demanding the job for the nanny or sitter, so you may need to increase the hourly rate for your caregiver per child. That rate is usually about $1 to $2 more per hour for kids in the same family, says Rachel Charlupski, founder of The Babysitting Company, a company that connects parents with sitters in several cities across the country. If you’re sharing a nanny or sitter with another family, the rate tends to go up about $5 to $10 per hour per family.
3. Number of hours
“Sometimes parents need only an hour or two of care before they come home,” says Charlupski.
That can make you feel like you’ll get away with spending less, but know that many sitters will set a minimum number of hours — say, 15 hours a week — so they know they’re guaranteed a certain amount of work each week or for each sitting job.
You might also decide to hire a full-time nanny who takes care of your babies or younger children during the day and school-age children after they get home from school. Full-time work may mean a similar (and sometimes slightly higher or lower) hourly rate, but more hours obviously means you’ll pay them more total per week.
That said, make sure you and your sitter are in agreement on not only an hourly rate but also a minimum and/or maximum number of hours before you hire them, advises Charlupski. It’s also wise to have a written nanny contract or babysitter contract that outlines everything you’re agreeing upon, including rate and number of hours.
4. Driving or other transportation
If your kids have after-school activities or regular playdates, your after-school caregiver will need to be willing and able to transport your kids.
“The hardest thing [in hiring a sitter] was making sure they could pick my boys up from their camps and after-school activities, so a decent car and a good driving record were important,” says Michaelann.
“Parents may pay higher wages as they seek a sitter who drives a safe car,” says Elizabeth Malson, founder of The U.S. Nanny Institute, formerly called the Amslee Institute, in Sarasota, Florida.
Charlupski also points out that sitters who drive kids should be compensated for gas used while on the job and for a car wash once every few weeks.
5. Experience and qualifications
Looking for someone with a child care diploma? A teaching degree? Years of experience?
“Education and experience can increase hourly wages for child care providers who provide additional services,” says Malson.
Candidates with more experience and/or more child development education than others may stand out and may be in higher demand.
6. Homework help and tutoring
In general, after-school sitters should expect to help kids with their homework as part of the job, says Charlupski. But at times, parents want more intensive tutoring, and if so, they should be prepared to pay extra for that service. In this case, Charlupski says, tutoring is generally a separate transaction from babysitting.
“It should be at least double for that time, usually an hour or two maximum,” says Charlupski, emphasizing that “homework help is different than tutoring, and we do not recommend charging more [for homework help].”
7. Housework
You might be tempted to hire someone who can wear two hats: nanny and cleaning person, but Charlupski warns against this.
“We do not recommend a sitter agrees to deep cleaning because it takes away the time that they are supervising and engaging with the kids,” she says. “But we always recommend cleaning up after themselves and the children and their activities. The home should look the same or better than how they arrived.”
To that end, make sure any household chores you add to your after-school sitter’s plate are duties that can be reasonably done while they keep a close eye on your child. For example, Michaelann says her after-school sitter does her kids’ laundry and loads and unloads her dishwasher. Similar expectations should be agreed upon up front and outlined in the written contract when you hire your caregiver.
8. Additional benefits and responsibilities
Since every family has unique needs — and different sitters have different skills they bring to the table — you may find yourself adjusting the sitter’s responsibilities and possibly the rate during the hiring process.
“We modified our sitter’s job description when we met the person we hired and saw what her strengths were,” says Michaelann.
A few skills that can command a higher hourly wage, according to Malson, include “speaking a second language, caring for pets and household management.”
And while after-school sitters who work part-time hours may not receive employment benefits, such as paid time off, you might find that offering benefits to a full-time nanny keeps them satisfied with their job. If you do, their rate can be adjusted to reflect perks you offer, as benefits are often part of pay negotiations.
The takeaway for parents who are hiring
Charlupski urges parents and caregivers to establish expectations together and come to a mutual agreement so everyone’s on the same page from the start.
“Everything should be clear,” she says.
For infrequent babysitting gigs, it’s common to simply have a verbal agreement. But for regular after-school or full-time care, it’s a good idea to sign a written contract together with your sitter. Here’s some guidance for creating a babysitting contract or nanny contract to get you started.
What everyone deems worthy of higher pay may vary, but every parent can agree that a caregiver’s kindness is invaluable.
As Jene puts it, “If they are good to my children, they deserve to be compensated well.”
Cost of Before and After School Programs – Education Expenses
CostHelper > Schools & Job Training > Before and After School Programs
Public Schools: $100-$500+ a month
For-Profit Centers: $150-$600+ a month
Private Schools: $300-$800+ a month
Sometimes called Extended Day programs, before and after school care fills the gaps between standard school classroom hours and most parents’ work schedules.
Typical costs:
Some public schools offer before and after school care for their students, with typical fees of $100-$500 or more a month ($1,000-$5,000 or more for the school year, September to May) depending on family income levels, location, the activities provided, the hours of operation, and whether the student participates in the program only before school, only after school or both.
These programs may be operated by the school district or contracted out to a non-profit group like a YMCA or boys and girls club. For example, Southern Saratoga YMCA Childcare[1] operates programs in Shenendehowa District cafeterias, charging $109-$174 a month for a morning program (7:30-9 am) five days a week, and $239-$328 monthly for after-school care (until 6pm).
At for-profit preschools, nurseries and child care centers, before and after school care can cost $150-$600 or more a month ($1,500-$6,000 a school year), depending on location, activities provided, staff-student ratio and hours of operation. For example, Sunshine Kids Club Camp[2] in Sykesville, MD costs $190 monthly for before care only, $231 for after care only and $360 for both; transportation is provided by local school buses, which pick up and drop off students in front of the club.
Many private schools offer extended day programs for their students, typically for $300-$800 or more a month ($3,000-$8,000 a school year), depending on hours of operation, activities provided (recreational or academic) and the school’s reputation. For example, Swain School[3] in Allentown, PA provides up to four hours of before and after school supervision at $9.25 per hour per child, or about $740-$780 a month.
Home day care or a babysitter before and after school typically costs $2-$12 or more an hour, or $125-$775 a month for about three hours a day, depending on location, total number of children cared for, and whether snacks, homework assistance or planned activities are included. The lower rates typically apply to informal group situations — if one parent agrees to watch several of their child’s classmates after school for a nominal fee or if a home day care provider is caring for a younger sibling all day, and charges a lower rate for watching the child’s older siblings after school. A babysitter may charge up to $15 an hour in some locations, but that’s typically for infants and younger children who need more care.

What should be included:
Some before and after school programs are simply supervised child care while others include homework/study time, sports, games, arts and crafts projects, music, movies and more.
Before school care can last 45 minutes to two-and-a-half hours and after school programs can be one to four hours, depending on the program’s opening and closing times, and the school
Additional costs:
Many programs end at 6 or 6:30 pm; if a child is picked up after that time there may be an extra charge (typically a flat fee of $5-$25 or an hourly rate of $45-$60). Maria Montessori Charter School[4] in Rocklin, CA, charges $1 for every minute after 6pm.
There might be cancellation fee of $10-$25 or more if there is no advance notice that a child will not attend the program. Crown Sports Care[5] in Fruitland, MD has a $15 cancellation fee with 48 hours advanced written notice, and no refund for same-day cancellations.
Discounts:
Public school may provide free care before and after school for students from low-income or homeless families.
Sibling discounts for multiple children from the same family are typically 5%-25% or $5-$15 or more off the standard fee. For example, the Boys and Girls Club Huntington Valley[6] in California charges $68 weekly for after-school care for first- to eighth-graders and $63 for each sibling.
Before and after school care expenses may qualify for tax credits[7] up to 30% of the total cost.
Shopping for before and after school programs:
Before and after school programs are offered by schools, churches, boys and girls clubs, YMCAs, YWCAs, in-home day-care operators and others. The US Department of Health and Human Services lists types of program providers[8] .
After spending the day in the classroom, some children need a quiet, small-group setting while others want active recreation and socializing. Albuquerque Public Schools lists tips for choosing a program[9] .

Our public school’s after school program is $507 a month (or $5,070 a year). I thought it was a little pricey because it’s for about 3 hours a day and sometimes I pick up my child early. The one good thing is that if there’s a teacher work day (a random day where there’s no school because teachers are planning, training, etc. ), then the after-school care is available all day (but the kids are just sitting around playing video games). It costs so much that it’d be competitive to find a nearby program (like language lessons or supplemental programs) that picks up kids, but we didn’t find one nearby we liked.

13 questions about extensions: price, duration, benefits, meals, sleep and more
Starting from this year, extensions have been brought to a common denominator in all schools in the country – now it implies a structured and orderly activity for children after school. Together with the Department of Education and Science of the City of Moscow, we answer the main questions related to the work of after-school groups in the capital.
How long does the extension last?
When trying to enroll a child on mos.ru in an extended day care group (GPA, development and socialization group, etc.), parents often find that an aftercare program can last from 1 to 6 hours. Moreover, in some school there can be three groups at once with different duration of work (conditionally, 1 hour, 3 hours, 6 hours), while in others only one option is offered. The Department of Education and Science of Moscow explains that “there are no uniform standards for the duration of the work of the GPA, but most often groups are organized just for 1 hour, 3 hours or 6 hours. The start and end times of the extension are set by the educational organization, taking into account the opinion of the parents.
In fact, the extension service usually starts at 14:00–15:30 (less often at 13:00) and ends at 18:00–19:00.
How much does the extension cost?
Prices vary greatly from school to school. The approximate range of prices is from 2000 to 7000 per month. As the Moscow Department of Education explains, “the school makes its own decision to open extended day groups. If a school opens an after-school program, then, in accordance with the law, it has the right to charge a fee for the supervision and care of children, while the amount of the fee is agreed with the governing council, which includes the parents of schoolchildren.
The cost of the extension, in addition to the costs of the salaries of teachers, educators, teachers of additional education, also includes the costs “which the institution incurs in connection with the provision of this service.” This item can include cleaning of premises, utility bills, and expenses for materials – pencils, paper, plasticine, paints, soap, etc.
All decisions on preferential terms for large and low-income families and children with special needs are made also the governing board. And even if there were such benefits last year, then this year they can be reviewed and, let’s say, reduced from 50% to 30%. And at the same time set a quota for the number of preferential places in the group.
How many children can be on an extension?
The number of children in the day care group is determined based on the sanitary requirements and conditions of the premises in which the children are engaged. At the same time, as noted in the Department of Education, “an extended day group can be made up of students from different grades of primary, primary and secondary schools.”
If we assume that the class reserved for the extended day group has an area of 30 square meters, then in it, even if we do not take into account the area occupied by furniture, there can be a maximum of 12 people at the same time (according to SanPiN, one student should have less than 2.5 sq. m, and in new buildings – at least 3.6 sq. m of area).
Who runs the afterschool program?
Of course, a lot depends on the personality of the teacher who leads the extended day group: at least this is the second most important person for elementary school students after the class teacher. And it is one thing when the GPA is conducted by a teacher of additional education, a former primary school teacher or a student of a pedagogical university, for whom this work is an adaptation to the school and who is fully invested in it, and quite another additional load on the second shift.
But, according to the department, educational organizations have the right to independently determine who will lead the after-school group: it can be either a teacher or another pedagogical worker. In other words, an after-school program can be led by a music or drawing teacher, a psychologist or a teacher of additional education. Theoretically, the governing board can also take part in resolving this issue.
Is it possible to bring food to the extension?
For children who stay for an extension, you can always order lunch or an afternoon snack in the canteen. Alternatively, a student can have a snack at the buffet using the Moskvenok card (the range includes cold and hot drinks, vegetable and fruit salads, sandwiches, pastries). Moreover, parents have the opportunity not only to get acquainted with what is offered in the school canteen and buffet (Muscovites can see this data in their personal account on mos.ru), but also to establish a ban on the purchase of certain delicacies.
Children with medical prescriptions may bring home prepared meals. At the same time, schools should provide all the necessary conditions for such students: a separate area in the dining room, a refrigerator for food and a responsible employee who helps children warm up food.
Everyone else is also not forbidden to bring homemade food to school, but you need to remember that parents take full responsibility for its freshness and quality. Whether they will help warm up the food in the canteen depends on the employees of the distribution line, on the class teacher or the teacher on the extension – here it’s how you agree (as a rule, at school they meet halfway).
Can I change into comfortable clothes?
School uniform is not compatible with a walk in the school yard. In addition, schoolchildren often draw, sculpt, and play on extensions, so sundresses, skirts, trousers, shirts, vests can fall victim to all sorts of activities.
Thus, despite the fact that the child is still at school, his school day is over, and therefore, according to the Department of Education, he has the right to change into any clothes that are comfortable for him. Which, of course, significantly increases the comfort of the child’s stay in the GPA.
Will you be able to sleep after dinner?
Quiet time is a standard kindergarten story. However, the school (attention!) should now also provide a time and place for first-graders to sleep.
According to Appendix 6 to SanPiN 2.4.2.2821-10, for first grade students in the GPA, it is recommended to “allocate sleeping quarters and playrooms. In the absence of special rooms for organizing sleep and games in a general educational institution, universal rooms can be used that combine a bedroom and a playroom, equipped with built-in furniture: wardrobes, single-tier beds.
And for students in grades 2-8, the bedrooms are replaced with assigned rooms for organizing play activities and daytime sleep “on request for weakened students.”
Another thing is that each educational organization proceeds from its own capabilities, and if there is no room for beds, it most likely will not appear, since the presence of bedrooms and playrooms is advisory, not mandatory.
At the same time, the same Appendix 6 states that in the extended day group mode “the following must be provided for: meals, a walk, daytime sleep for students in grades 1 and weakened students in grades 2–3.” You can also read there: “… each student should be assigned a specific bed with a change of bed linen at least once every 10 days.” Who is responsible for washing bed linen is not specified.
How long should the walk be?
Each school has its own daily schedule (as a rule, it is published on the school website), but this schedule must include physical activity. Under favorable weather conditions, children will definitely go for a walk. Recommendations: spend at least an hour outside before lunch after the end of school hours, as well as an hour before self-study (if the GPA as a whole lasts more than an hour). Street time should be reserved for sports games, exercises, etc.
Separately, it is noted that a walk at school is of a pedagogical nature, and for this, a specially equipped playground should be on the school grounds. In the event that parents are not satisfied with the quality of the walk (say, a child says that children are fooling around on the street while teachers are standing aside and talking), you can always contact the class teacher or the school administration.
Will the teachers help with the lessons?
The so-called self-training is provided for in the GPA daily routine – this is the time to do everything that is assigned at home. The teacher organizes this work, answers questions – but does not check completed tasks and does not help solve problems.
The recommended time to start “self-training” is three to four o’clock in the afternoon, “because by this time there is a physiological rise in working capacity.” The total time spent on homework should not exceed (in astronomical hours, including mandatory breaks): in grades 2-3 – 1.5 hours, in grades 4-5 – 2 hours, in grades 6-8 -th grade – 2.5 hours. For the 1st grade, homework assignments are advisory in nature, and therefore the norms for their preparation are not prescribed.
What else should students do during the extension?
The recommendations for organizing the daily routine of students attending the GPA assume, for example, participation in “events of an emotional nature”, that is, visiting circles, participating in games, quizzes and amateur activities. The Department of Education notes that the teacher in the GPA “monitors the discipline of students and their observance of the daily routine, organizes homework, conducts cultural, leisure and recreational activities with the children. ”
Parents, who now, as it is supposed, can influence the content of the extension, can always contact the school administration with their comments, suggestions and wishes.
Can I use the telephone?
At the beginning of September, we were reminded that students must not use their phones during class. This prescription does not apply to the GPA: the Moscow Department of Education assures that “if the parents do not mind, then the child can take the phone for an extension.” But at the same time, it is recommended to remember that “while preparing for lessons, the child should be focused on learning and not be distracted by gadgets.”
Is the student taken to a circle in another building?
The GPA provides for a number of extracurricular activities, but often the child, in addition to the extension, also attends additional sections or circles at school – a swimming pool, karate, dancing, a choir, etc. As a rule, all extracurricular activities take place in the same building , in which children study, but in fact it also happens that the group’s classes are held in the neighboring building across the road. In this case, younger students must be accompanied by a teacher, while older students can go to additional classes on their own.
And the last thing: until what age can a child be left in the GPA?
There are no age restrictions, but most often after-school groups are opened for elementary grades. If the parents of high school students also have a need for the GPA, then, by the decision of the school, an after-school program can be organized for them as well. At the same time, the difference between the extension for elementary school students and for secondary school students will be only in the format of activities. For beginners, this is drawing, modeling, writing, for senior classes – classes according to the school curriculum.

10 changes that will happen to you after school
1) You will not communicate so much with friends and acquaintances from school
This is not good and not bad, it’s just that life is arranged in such a way that everyone has their own path. No matter how sad it is to part (even for a while) with old friends, you can still see them. Just not as often as before. Of course, the changes are likely to make you sad at first. But you need to move on, and gradually you will begin to get used to everything, and also understand that it was inevitable.
In order not to fall into depression, it is important not to forget about the positive moments that will await you after graduation – about interesting discoveries, acquaintances and amazing prospects. Focus on the unknown and the new instead of constantly remembering the past. It is not for nothing that they say that the young are dear everywhere, and over time you will feel it. In addition, it is no longer necessary to keep in touch with those who for some reason did not like you or offended you, and for some it will be the best thing that could happen after graduation.
2) New environment and new people
For several years you went to the same offices, interacted with the same people, and seemed to know the school like the back of your hand. Now something completely new and perhaps even more exciting awaits you – the life of a freshman. At a university or college, there are more opportunities not only for education, but also for personal development. A variety of hobby groups, discussions, student organizations, cultural events and, of course, completely different rules of life and study – all this requires close study. Don’t be afraid to take the first steps, ask questions (in most cases, senior students are willing to help “first students”) and take part in the activities of your educational institution. So you will surely make friends with someone and you can, if necessary, ask for help from a friend, whether it is to borrow a summary or explain a difficult task.
3) You may decide to make a radical change
Someone after graduation decides to continue their education in another city or country, because today there are a lot of options for studying. And this, of course, is a very exciting, unique experience, a chance to live away from your family and immerse yourself in a new life. If you’re thinking about big changes, weigh the pros and cons carefully, consult with your parents, ask friends for advice, and don’t forget to read student and alumni testimonials from the university or college you’ve chosen. In the first years of your studies, you will need funds for food and accommodation, will your relatives be able to support you? For what purpose do you want to leave to study, are you going to return? Can you not see loved ones for a long time? Think carefully about how to answer these questions.
4) There will be much less “obligations”
At school, they usually say: “Everyone should come to the line”, “Those who do not bring a textbook with them or do their homework will get “two”, “After the lessons we are going to and let’s go to the museum.” However, now no one will force you to do something and constantly remind you why you need to carry this or that book with you, as well as prepare for classes. In a university or college, it is assumed that once you have chosen an educational organization and entered, you understand why you need to get an education, take the process seriously and know that no one else needs your studies – neither mom and dad, nor the class teacher (who, by the way, you won’t). Therefore, the advice is this – get ready for the fact that you will have to do and learn a lot on your own, and teachers will not always give good grades the first time. You may even have to retake something, “catching” the professor you need for several days in a row. At the same time, grades, in fact, will not matter as much as “deuces” in school, when you are scolded by the whole family for a bad mark or praised in front of the class for an excellent essay. Only the knowledge and skills acquired during studies matter. When applying for a job, no one will look at how you passed the exams – only at what you are.
5) And there are more opportunities
From now on, you no longer need to intensively prepare for the Unified State Examination by regularly visiting a tutor and solving standard exam tasks. Use your free time to good use: sign up for foreign language courses, go in for sports, read books that you have long wanted to get acquainted with, get additional education, track the poster of interesting events in your city – why not, all this, by the way, can still come in handy you in the future.
And, of course, start slowly taking steps to realize yourself professionally — take part in competitions, attend thematic events (lectures, master classes, conferences), meet new people and learn about opportunities for students (internships in companies or educational institutions, grants and scholarships). Many recruiters say that it is better to take the first steps as early as possible, so you should not put them off until later.
6) You can start making money
According to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, you can work full time from the age of 18, and before that, teenagers are allowed to work a shorter day. The first job does not have to be profitable and according to your training profile. Early in his career, Henry Ford was making $2.50 a week for his work at the foundry, and Elvis Presley was driving a truck for $1 an hour. Do not forget that you are just entering adulthood and starting to gain knowledge about it, so the vacancy of a promoter, waiter or receptionist will do. All the same, you will not be able to get a higher paying job without the necessary work experience. And the conditions in such positions, as a rule, are focused on students and suggest a flexible schedule of employment, and sometimes a temporary nature of work. But what happiness it will be then to understand that here it is, your first earnings, which can be spent at your discretion.
7) Self-organization decides everything
Student years are one of the best in the life of any person. This is a carefree and fun time, full of vivid impressions, not without reason they say: “Students live happily from session to session. ” However, this phrase contains one of the main difficulties in the life of every university or college student. During the busy period of passing exams, you will have to exert yourself to the maximum – re-read all the notes, work on the answers to the tickets and try to learn as many terms and formulas as possible, as well as analyze the difficult points of the theory. How to deal with all this if comrades from another group invite you to take a walk? There is only one way out – to disagree and concentrate on studying. And, yes, it will be really hard, especially during the first exams. But over time, many begin to get used to such a regimen and organize their time in such a way that not only not to start getting an education, but also to have time to have fun with friends.
8) Change of social status
Adult comrades will no longer condescendingly call you a “schoolboy” and make fun of your fears of the exam. As a student, you can attend many interesting events for free or for a symbolic amount, as well as receive a scholarship if you study full-time at the budget department. In addition, students have the right to use various discounts (they are provided not only in some shops and cafes, but also, for example, when buying tickets for public transport or trains). Feel free to use all your advantages, because student years fly by so quickly.
9) Self-determination
So it turns out that while studying at a university or college, many begin to think about whether they made the right choice of program and place, whether they need to change something. Someone, after studying for a year, enters again, others are transferred to related specialties. There is nothing surprising in this, because there are many options, but life is one, and it’s not always possible to decide in which direction you would like to develop from the first time.
Be that as it may, even if everything suits you, after graduating from a bachelor’s degree, you will have a choice – whether to go to a master’s program, and if so, where. Or another option – you can understand that for some reason you don’t want to work in the profession, and start, for example, doing something else from the student bench. The advice in all such cases is the same – you need to be aware of what is interesting for you, what you feel a great craving for. To do this, you should learn to listen to your inner voice and extract valuable advice for yourself from this.
10) Growing up
An adult is someone who is able to make decisions and take responsibility for them. In the course of long-term training, you willy-nilly have to grow up gradually – to become older and even wiser. If graduation from school takes place on a grand scale and is most often perceived as a kind of farewell to childhood, then on the eve of graduating from a university or college, students mainly think about how to get a diploma and where to go to work later. There is a change of priorities: young people learn to plan the future themselves and take steps to achieve their goals.

What to choose after 11th grade: university or institute.
The role of career guidance in the professional self-determination of high school students
Leave after 9 or stay until 11
This question worries not only graduates of the 9th grade, but also everyone who is just about to move to the graduating class. You need to make a choice even before receiving an incomplete secondary education. By the 9th grade, it is desirable to understand at least in general terms in which direction to develop a career, since it is better to start the path in your favorite business from an early age. Not everyone knows at such a young age which specialty is best suited. Anyone who has not decided on a profession in the ninth grade should consult with a career guidance specialist. This will help you make an informed choice and get a specialty that will be in demand in the next 20-30 years.
In the question “Is it better to leave after the 9th or 11th grade?” There is no one size fits all answer. In choosing a profession, you should focus on your own feelings and desires. However, it is not always possible for a student to clearly build his career plan for many years, starting with the choice of a promising specialty and educational institution (college or university). There are a number of professions that are taught in college. In order to get such a specialty, it is better to go to college after 9 and get a secondary vocational education or study until 11 and only then enter a secondary specialized educational institution.
In some cases, it makes sense to study up to grade 11. First of all, this applies to those young people who want to devote themselves to science in the future, or already in the 9th grade they imagine which university they will enter in the future. If you see yourself as a doctor, pilot or engineer from childhood, you will need to get a higher education after school.
For all those who have not yet decided on their future profession, consultation with a career guidance specialist will help. You will be able to learn more about yourself, get valuable advice on choosing a sought-after and promising specialty, and valuable advice on building a career. You can sign up for a consultation here https://profconsult.online/services/.
Is college after 9 or 11? In secondary schools they enter after the 9th grade. But if you didn’t get into college after 11th grade, you can go to college.
Examinations after grades 9 and 11
What is passed after the 9th grade and is it possible to enter the secondary school without exams
After the 9th grade, students take the final exam – the OGE. In a college or technical school they enter according to the competition of certificates. The applicant needs to calculate the average score of the certificate and find out the passing score in college. Pupils with the best results in the ninth grade are admitted to colleges without exams. For some areas, upon admission, they arrange testing (journalism, military specialties) or are asked to demonstrate certain skills (drawing, writing essays, etc.).
It is also possible to enter a college on a commercial basis and study for a fee. You can enter with almost any grades in the certificate. There are such educational institutions in many regional centers: in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Rostov-on-Don.
What exams are taken after the 11th grade and how to enter a college or university
After grade 11, graduates take exams in the form of the Unified State Examination. Compulsory exams are mathematics and Russian. If mathematics is required upon admission, then you need to take the profile option. If you are going to go to a specialty where mathematics is not required for admission, you can leave basic mathematics. It must be passed in order to receive a certificate. The choice of other disciplines for passing the exam depends on the specialty. Enrollment in a university is based on the results of the Unified State Examination, however, educational institutions with a high rating also take into account the victory of schoolchildren in specialized Olympiads.
How to pass the exam if you left after grade 9
When entering a university or college, you need to bring a certificate and report your exam results. If you did not finish the 11th grade at school and are going to enter a university, then you need to get a secondary specialized or secondary technical education. Then you should pass the exam.
When applicants switch to a similar specialty, passing the exam is not required. Moreover, they enroll immediately in the second year of a specialized university. If you have received a secondary legal education, you can enter a law school. This statement is true for other specialties as well.
To pass the exam after a technical school, you need to come to the department of education in your region and apply. You will need to bring a graduation certificate.
Students who have switched to self-education after grade 9 can submit an application in the prescribed form and pass the USE in the general manner, in accordance with the Federal Law of December 29, 2012 N 273-FZ (as amended on March 7, 2018) “On Education in the Russian Federation”, as well as the Order of the Ministry of Education RF N 190, Rosobrnadzor N 1512 dated 11/07/2018.
College or technical school: where to go after grade 9
It all depends on what specialty you want to apply for. Students who receive practical secondary vocational education study at the technical school. Training in these educational institutions is aimed more at obtaining practical skills. Studying at a technical school provides an opportunity for education for both boys and girls. Young men go to study as car mechanics, welders, electricians, and finishing workers. Many girls are found in such specialties as a seamstress and a hairdresser.
In college, theory teaching prevails over practical training. There is a more in-depth level of education. Colleges aim to prepare students for higher education. That is, when a student graduates from college, he can immediately enter the 2nd year of the institute.
In colleges, students study for 3-4 years, and in technical schools, study takes less time – 2-3 years. Specialties in college are studied in more depth. If in a technical school students study as a “technician”, then after college they are assigned the specialty “senior technician”.
Pros and cons of acquiring secondary specialized education after grade 9
The advantages of suzes:
Many secondary schools are easier to get into. Some don’t even require exams.
Colleges and technical schools teach professions that will always be in demand.
After leaving college, you can immediately enter the 2nd year of the university
When you graduate from high school, you will get a job earlier than university graduates.
If you enter a college or technical school, then it is more likely that you will get a budget place.
Studying at a secondary school is simple, unlike most universities.
But studying in technical schools and colleges has no less serious drawbacks:
Pupils enter secondary schools at the age of 14-15. At this age, they still do not know who they want to be next in life. It is often advised to act by relatives who do not know who you really want to be. Either the decision to go to college comes spontaneously.
College graduates are not as sought after as college graduates. Employers, first of all, will choose university graduates.
Studying at a secondary school is not suitable for ambitious people. With this education, it will be more difficult to achieve high goals in life. But remember that if you do not have a higher education, then this is not a sentence. There are many successful people without a “crust”.
University after 11th grade? Stages of higher education.
Undergraduate
A bachelor’s degree is a level of higher education that provides basic knowledge in a specialty. Advantages of a bachelor’s degree:
1. Bachelors of Russian universities can enter Europe. Many countries have a two-tier system of higher education. The first level, that is, a bachelor’s degree, you get in Russia. You can continue your studies in Europe.
2. You will study for 4 years. This is less than in a master’s or specialist’s degree.
3. On the plus side for boys: undergraduate studies involve deferment from the army.
4. After completing a bachelor’s degree, there is an opportunity to enroll in a master’s program.
The biggest disadvantage of this level of study is that the employer does not want to take bachelors to work in their specialty, because they believe that 4 years is not enough to get the full range of knowledge in a particular specialty.
Specialist
Master’s and specialist’s programs differ from bachelor’s degrees in that they provide more in-depth knowledge in the specialty. The specialist studies for 5 years.
Studying for a specialist lasts longer than for a bachelor’s degree by only one year, but has significant advantages:
A specialist is more likely to get a job in his specialty.
A graduate of a specialty has the opportunity to go to work in any field. He can work at an enterprise in his specialty, he can teach, or he can get a job in the authorities.
Immediately after the specialty, you can go to study at graduate school.
As in the case of bachelors, future specialists will have a deferment from the army. But already for 5 years.
Minuses:
Master’s degree
A master’s degree is an addition to a bachelor’s degree. That is, you first need to study for four years at the bachelor’s degree, and then go to study at the master’s program for two years.
Advantages:
1. Master’s degree is a great option to extend your student years.
2. If a student is going to become a scientist, then this is a great opportunity to prove himself.
3. The master’s degree is recognized all over the world. Graduates of the master’s program can get jobs in many international companies.
4. The magistracy extends the deferment from the army for young people for another 2 years.
Flaws:
1. To enter a master’s program after a bachelor’s degree, you need to pass entrance exams.
2. Students are more demanding: they will need to do scientific research.
3. Masters in the course of training practice in teaching.
4. At the end of the course, masters take final exams and complete a master’s thesis. This dissertation is more difficult than when graduating from a bachelor’s or specialist’s degree.
What to choose after the 11th grade: university or institute.
There is no significant difference between a university and an institute in terms of education. And there, and there you need to constantly go to pairs. How seriously your diploma will be quoted will depend more on the university. The Institute is a higher educational institution with a narrow focus: medical, aviation, technical, etc.

Why are you called the “Russian” School of Math?
The “Russian” comes from our approach – which is based on elite math schools in the former Soviet Union, adapted to the U. S. environment. According to Russian tradition – the study of mathematics is the pre-eminent tool of mental development. We teach math in a way that not only builds mathematical excellence, but also develops intellect and character.
Where does your curriculum come from?
We offer one continuous curriculum, from K-12. Our curriculum and methodology, perfected over 20 years by our team of gifted academics, is inspired by elite mathematical schools in the former Soviet Union, adapted for the American educational environment.
How big are your classes? What is the teacher to student ratio?
Our average class size is 12, and with three levels per grade we’re able to ensure that each child is placed in a class that is appropriately challenging. Classrooms are an essential part of our methodology and curriculum as the environment enables students to verbalize and debate their ideas and exposes them to different ways of thinking.
How long are your classes? Can an elementary school child sit that long?
Our class-times vary depending on a child’s age. Starting anywhere from 1.5 hours for kindergarteners to 2-4 hours in high school. In the younger grades, we regularly mix activities and work with manipulatives to keep students engaged.
How much homework should I expect?
The goal of homework is to reinforce what was taught in class. Our teachers assign just enough to strengthen the skills developed in class. Homework is an excellent tool for you to gauge your child’s learning. It should take approximately half the length of your child’s lesson to complete. If the homework takes an unreasonably long or short amount of time, that may be a red flag indicating that your child is not in an appropriate level.
Who are your teachers?
All of our teachers have a background in mathematics or a related field and have a passion for the subject. They also go through extensive training to teach according to our specific methodology and curriculum.
What is the best age to join?
It takes many years to develop a deep mathematical foundation as well as the type of mindset we focus on building. With mathematics, as with a language or a sport, the earlier a child starts the better. Our students begin to reason with abstract concepts in elementary school, and by middle school they are not only familiar with essential elements of algebra but can easily apply them in problem solving.
What is your tuition?
Please submit the tuition request form above and we will automatically email you a pdf with our tuition costs by grade.
Is your program right for my child?
We have designed multiple levels for every grade specifically to be able to serve each child’s development based on his or her knowledge and ability. We recommend scheduling a free evaluation, as these sessions enable us to get a sense of each child’s needs and recommend a class that is best suited to him or her.
Will your program confuse my child in school?
The concepts that we cover are fundamental and we study them in depth. Children see concepts from a variety of different angles. This doesn’t lead to confusion but rather empowers students by deepening their understanding. Since our curriculum is generally ahead of public school, children will often first learn concepts at RSM. Once they master them, we find they can adapt to any school format.

Read Online Dark Days in Sunnyvale by Emil Costa – LitRes
Prologue
Henry Schumer turned off the engine and the police car rolled noiselessly up to the porch. Lights were on in the house. The patrolman grinned: after all, he was right not to trust his daughter. She said that she would spend the night with a friend, and she herself arranged gatherings at home. Well, if with girls, otherwise…
He got out of the car, covering the top of his fair-haired head with his hand, and only outside put on his cap. Due to his high growth, Henry kept banging his head against the doorways, and you can’t count how many times he kissed his forehead as he got out of the car. However, it didn’t take long to toil in patrols: Schumer served as a deputy sheriff for the second year and believed that the position of chief was in his pocket. It’s time for the old man to rest.
The door was successfully closed without too much noise. Stepping springily over the step, the policeman went up to the porch and listened. Silence. They must be smoking in the kitchen. Maybe it’s better to go through the back door and scare the girls as you should, so that it would be disrespectful? Meggie’s secretiveness was beginning to get on her nerves: almost eighteen years old, and the devil knows what was going on in her head. I used to study excellently, but in recent years there have been not enough stars from the sky. We should take it seriously.
The policeman entered the house and slammed the door behind him. The bright light in the living room blinded him for a moment. Making a stern grimace, Henry turned to the center of the room, where there were several chairs, and immediately saw the muzzle of a pistol pointed in his direction. Before the head had time to think something, the hand reached for the holster and even had time to unfasten it. A shot rang out.
As a seasoned basketball player, Henry is used to punching different parts of his body in practice, but it was a hard hit! His eyes darkened. He sank heavily, clutching the wound in his stomach with his right hand. The cap rolled to the side, the revolver flew under the armchair. Schumer curled up on the floor and stared in amazement at his own blood, a dark puddle spreading over the clean parquet. The light in his eyes faded. It was cold.
Finally, the policeman had time to think that this was the coldest October night in his life.
Chapter 1 Welcome to Sunnyvale!
The knock on the door echoed in my head and drove away the remnants of sleep. I rolled off the couch where I passed out the day before, tossed the empty bottle into the trash can under the table, and stomped to open it. Wilkins was out of sorts and started grumbling from the very doorway:
– Who would doubt it, you haven’t even opened your eyes yet! Monday morning – I understand everything, but it’s time to know the measure!
– I have you for this, – I went to the bathroom, rubbing the back of my head, – What kind of urgent business?
The old man looked around my bachelor’s quarters with disgust. He was sweating from his haste, despite the very fresh morning, and he was breathing heavily. Wilkins went to the window and lifted the transom, letting the cool autumn air into the room. In everything that concerns cigarettes, he was an intolerable hypocrite, like all recently quit smokers.
My partner sat down on the sofa and while I was soaping my face, he stated the essence of the matter in his very specific manner:
– I was pulled out to the police station early in the morning; the phone is acting up, so they sent a patrolman. Wake everyone up, you fool… Mary picked up some stuff while I was driving to work. In general, time is running out. I did not wait for you there, I jumped home – and immediately here.
– Another business trip? I grimaced as I stepped out of the bathroom.
– I hope it’s the last one for me. So tired of all this fuss … Collect your clothes and move.
I opened a closet, on the floor of which lay a “disturbing briefcase” for such cases. What’s inside, I did not look. Nothing new for sure. Together with the briefcase, I took out a suit from the bowels of the wardrobe and even dug out a pair of decent socks on the top shelf.
Five minutes later we went down the stairs. Downstairs, I tried to move more slowly, because I owed the landlady. Police detective is not the most profitable position; I didn’t have the best account with the authorities and I didn’t blame him at all for this. So the money was not that much, and life in Boston is expensive. This is especially true for rental housing, even when it comes to the kennel that I call home.
Wilkins’ 1952 Dodge was waiting for us at the curb. The old man bought it seven years ago right off the assembly line and was terribly proud of it. Alas, the partner refused to understand that in our time, machines become obsolete at the speed of light. He got behind the wheel, and I threw the briefcase into the back seat next to the owner’s belongings and flopped into the passenger seat. My head was still splitting, there was a disgusting aftertaste in my mouth, so it was beyond my strength to appreciate the beauty of the Boston morning washed by the autumn rain. When the car started off with a grinding sound, I asked for decency:
– Where are we actually going?
– In Sunnyvale, – the disgust that the partner put into this harmless name, expressed all the contempt of the inhabitant of a big city for the province, – Population twelve thousand sixty-four people, forty-seven miles from Boston to the southwest … We will be there by breakfast.
– And what happened there – the sheriff got caught on a bribe?
– If only! Someone shot a cop in his own house.
I whistled. Look what business: in Boston, we were not entrusted with anything more serious than car theft, but here … It seems that it is not very important for the big shots that the killer goes to jail, otherwise they would not have sent the head drunk of the investigation department and his elderly partner to this case .
– Any witnesses? Versions?
– I don’t know anything. I was called right out of bed and told to pick you up and go straight to the scene. The corpse was found at dawn, someone close; he’ll probably be taken away by the time we get there,” the mongrel ran across the road, and the partner savagely pressed the horn, “Mary cursed what the world was worth. Jenny has a performance at school the other day, and here is this business trip…
Wilkins is our father with many children and five minutes to a pensioner. The ballet of his youngest daughter worries him much more than the death of a colleague, albeit a stranger. It is not surprising that the partner’s mood is not to hell.
I stole a glance in the side mirror; if I had known that a business trip was coming, I would not have gotten so drunk the day before. In Boston, you won’t surprise anyone with a rumpled face, especially if you are investigating thefts and car thefts, but in Sunnyvale … And even an internal investigation … I would not want to disappoint the locals and discredit the honor of the uniform. Although I have long forgotten what honor is, and I don’t wear a uniform. One of the advantages of being a police detective is the ability to dress in civilian clothes. After so many years in the form, I never get tired of rejoicing at it.
Sunnyvale appeared ahead an hour later; we made a short stop near the only hotel at the entrance to the city. The one-story building looked at the road with the blind eyes of windows. Rooms in such places are rented by prostitutes and drug addicts. The receptionist – an unshaven fellow in a greasy shirt – was quite surprised at the sight of guests from the big city.
“Decent people rarely drop in here, more trash… If you only want to have fun with girls for cheap, then you’ve come to the address,” he said from behind a counter covered with spots of the most mysterious origin.
“I don’t have fun on the job,” I replied, showing the type a police badge, “Two numbers, and preferably cleaner.
– How many nights? the porter perked up instantly.
“Until tomorrow, but in general I would like less,” Wilkins sighed.
A minute later, having thrown my belongings into a room with a huge broken-down bed, I went to look for a partner. He got a room at the very end of a corridor as long as a gut. Encountering a couple of suspicious faces along the way, I knocked on the last door. The furniture in this room looked more decent, but behind the wall a bunk creaked mercilessly, and a local moth squealed in time with its rhythmic moan.
– Right in the morning! What will happen here at night? Wilkins complained, “Not only have they sent you to hell, they won’t even let you sleep. ”
– It is unlikely that she plows around the clock, – I reassured the old man, – And in general, before evening, the city will find out that cops live in the hotel, and all the beauties will be blown off the horizon.
– To hell with them, with the girls – did you see what freaks were wandering along the corridor? I can’t stand drug addicts. They attack with anything, and then they will either slaughter their neighbor or lay hands on themselves. There was still not enough new business to rake here.
– This will not be an internal investigation, they will rake it on their own. Are we going?
“We should have a proper breakfast,” Wilkins sighed as we got into the car.
– Maybe we can intercept something in the station. Or the inconsolable widow will turn out to be a good housewife…
– Good housewives don’t have dead husbands lying around in the house, – his companion answered instructively.
And, damn it, I didn’t argue with him.
It was a gloomy autumn morning over Sunnyvale. In general, a pretty town. It must be good to raise children here. My wife once wanted to move into one – or so she said. And now he lives in midtown Manhattan, in a tiny and expensive apartment with brick walls; this is a former building of either a garment factory or a soap factory. God knows what women really want.
We stopped near the polling station and Wilkins ran out to get the address of the dead man. When he returned, our Dodge moved on and a few minutes later pulled up on a quiet street five blocks from downtown. Perhaps it was even difficult to call it a street: “Flower Dead End” was listed on the road sign before turning into a secluded nook surrounded by several houses. Only five almost identical two-story boxes, behind which the local nameless river carried its waters. Four of them had manicured lawns in front of them, with flowerbeds and garden gnomes and such nonsense, and one was clearly empty.
The house we wanted was in the middle, at the very end of the cul-de-sac. Several police and civilian vehicles parked in front of him, cluttering both the lawn and the parking space. An ambulance was also present; inside, two hefty orderlies toiled with boredom.
We stumbled in front of a neighboring house, on the porch of which an old lady was sitting in a wicker chair, frowningly watching what was happening. Why did I silently call her a lady? The devil knows. Some kind of breed was felt there: in the posture, the fit of a gray head with a neat haircut, hands folded on their knees, pursed wrinkled lips … In a word, these old women are no longer allowed out.
Getting out of the car, my partner and I stomped to the right house, on which there was a sign with the number three. The door and windows were wide open, the breeze fluttered the curtains. One could only hope that the corpse was indeed fresh enough: I am accustomed to everything, but Wilkins’ delicate stomach does not tolerate rotten meat.
Looking around the scene, I frowned. Those provincial morons didn’t even think to put up a fence. I had to forget about possible footprints on the lawn: right next to the house, with its nose almost buried in the porch and one wheel stuck in a flower bed, there was a police car. On his dashboard under the windshield, I noticed an idiotic cowboy hat. These are only worn …
– What is the name of the local sheriff?
“Murdoch,” said Wilkins, rummaging through the pockets of his raincoat for cough drops, “Do you think he’s there?”
– Not otherwise, – I pointed to the hat, and my partner grunted with laughter, – Do you think he also has boots with spurs?
– I put on the mustache up to the ears.
“Half a dollar ready,” I went up to the porch and entered the house first.
The deceased did not live well. The living room we entered had new but cheap furniture. A striped faux-wool rug adorned the middle of the room. On it are arranged in a semicircle two armchairs with a low back and one with a high back; all turned towards the small TV in the left corner. A dining table with two chairs is located near the window to the right. Behind the door opposite were, apparently, a kitchen and stairs to the second floor.
The owner of the house was lying in a pool of his own blood next to the threshold – he barely had time to enter and immediately got a bullet. He was curled up on his side in a fetal position, his hands pressed to his wounded stomach. At the sight of the body in police uniform, my soul became bad: I forgot how hard it is to investigate the murders of good guys. A bald-headed man in civilian clothes was sitting on a chair near the corpse, writing down something; I saw rubber gloves on his hands. The coroner must be.
There were three other people in the room: they just stared at us. Here, guests from the big city were clearly not welcome. Two young cops and one older, this squat bloke in a leather jacket with a cigarette in his mouth was especially unceremoniously goggling. Unfortunately, there were no cowboy boots, and at the sight of the sheriff’s face, it became clear that the bet was hopelessly lost. Suppressing a sigh, I stepped towards him and held out my hand.
– Detective Carl Boyd. I’m assuming you’re Sheriff Murdoch?
“I’m the best,” he shook the outstretched hand languidly, “So you’re bigwigs from Boston?”
Which was to be proved – we were definitely not welcome … I didn’t even raise an eyebrow, and my partner pulled out five fingers from his pocket and modestly introduced himself:
– Wilkins.
He always pretends to be a neighbor across the street who has wandered in to borrow a hammer. However, if I had spent so many years as an assistant detective, I would also rarely mention my own title. With such a partner, of course, you will not earn authority. Needless to say: the old man does not have enough stars from the sky, and no one expects this from him. And the team of us is what you need: he has long been counting the days until retirement, and I – when I get a knee in the ass.
Trying to act as if the situation was under control, I looked around the room and said:
– Bring me up to date.
– There is nothing to enter. Dead cop. Henry Marvin Schumer, thirty-nine. This is his body, and this … – the sheriff waved his hand around the gray head, – his house. I’m sorry, I won’t offer cocktails in the absence of the hosts.
– I prefer clear tape. When was the body found?
“They called the station at seven in the morning,” answered a tall policeman with protruding ears that puffed out funny from under his cap, “I was called from home, I was here at half past seven.
– Who called?
– Daughter found the body – she must have called.
I noticed several photographic portraits on the walls: the owner of the house, dressed in a military style, is captured against the backdrop of a Norman village, he is in basketball shorts with a cup in his hands, again he is already in a police uniform. There were also three or four shots of a little girl, no more than eight years old. Pretty, with chubby cheeks. She is engaged in ballet, won the spelling contest . .. Clever, although blonde – her father’s daughter.
Is she at the station?
– At the neighbor’s. We can call if needed.
– Nothing. I’ll talk to her later…
The girl must be in shock: it’s no joke to find her father in a pool of blood. What are these rednecks thinking?
I took out my cigarettes and looked around for an ashtray.
“Henry didn’t smoke and didn’t allow guests,” the sheriff observed, puffing out a puff of smoke.
– This is not a reason to litter at the scene of the murder. Wilkins…
My partner was about to protest, but he caught my stern look and immediately rushed off to the kitchen, which was indeed outside the door. He rattled the crockery there for a few seconds and finally returned with an empty coffee cup in his hands.
– Grab your health.
– Thank you.
I lit a cigarette, took a cup and squatted down next to the body as if I were going to have coffee before the initial examination. I must admit, I forgot this procedure hopelessly. Moreover, the smoke hit the brains with a blunt hammer, recalling yesterday’s fun. Strictly speaking, getting drunk to the point of passing out to the crackle of an old radio is not much fun, but there was no choice. And now we had to get together. There is no need to write a detailed description of the victim, but I did it for myself in order to remember …
So, the murder victim, Police Officer Henry Schumer. White male thirty-nine. Above average height, thin, athletic build. Blonde hair, medium length, parted on the right side. The eyes are open, the mucous membranes are dry. Eye color is blue. The victim has an oval face, a high forehead, a straight nose, and a large mouth with thin lips. What else … The chin is square.
He was a handsome guy, what is there. I wonder if he managed to understand that he was starting to go bald?
Wears a police uniform. On the right side of the jacket, in the region of the liver, there is a large blood stain and a hole from a wound, presumably from a gunshot wound. The cap rolled off in the fall and lies four feet from the body. Revolver (38 gauge) five feet away, under the chair. The holster is open.
Did he try to defend himself?
The victim lies on the right side, legs bent at the knees and pulled up to the chest, both hands pressed to the stomach. There was an oval-shaped pool of blood near the body, about three feet square. No splashes or shoe prints. The room is in relative order. Walls and furniture without visible damage; no traces of other shots were found.
Cleanly done. If the perpetrator left any evidence, then these idiots have trampled everything a long time ago. Look, the corner of the carpet was turned away so that it wouldn’t get dirty with blood, they were fucking clean.
My stomach hurt. An experienced forensic specialist was needed here, and not a former military policeman who is thrown into thefts and domestic brawls. I had practically nothing to do with the murders, and if I ever investigated them, the identity of the perpetrator was obvious from the very beginning. In the evening I will certainly get drunk, and now the main thing is to keep my face. Pretend that everything is going according to plan – and they will believe you. Always works.
I raised my head and looked up at the coroner, who was putting some tools into a briefcase.
– Was the body turned over?
“This one…” he nodded at the big-eared one, “swears he doesn’t. I moved a little, within reason.
– You swear? I looked gloomily at the young cop, who immediately drew himself up to attention.
– I didn’t touch anything!
– Exactly? So the house stood open all night like that?
– It was I who ordered the windows to be opened here, – Murdoch stood up for his subordinate, – It stinks of blood – even get out.
– And how can we work now? – I carefully extinguished the cigarette butt on the bottom of the cup, – The devil knows what else your guys managed to stir up here.
– By that time, everything that was needed was photographed. They took fingerprints from switches and doorknobs – everything is as it should be, – the coroner intervened, – I arrived at the same time as the police, I live nearby. The door and windows were closed, the curtains drawn. The light was on. The carpet, by the way, had already been turned away.
I looked inquiringly at the lop-eared one, and he shook his head. Well, then, the killer distinguished himself with his chivalry. Or maybe the victim’s daughter? Unlikely, but it needs to be clarified. I turned to the bald man and asked:
– I understand you are the local coroner?
– Dr. Alvin Bell, pathologist…
– Are you not a forensic specialist?
– Alas, – he spread his hands in bloody rubber gloves, – But I’m ready to serve in any way I can. Not for the first time.
It doesn’t get any easier from hour to hour… And how to work here? Civilian doctor, thank you for not sending a dentist!
I looked at him appraisingly and asked:
– Time of death?
– Judging by the way the guy was twisted, between midnight and two o’clock. I would bet at midnight.
“What a way to place bets everywhere… With your excitement, you have to live in Vegas,” Murdoch gritted his cigarette in his teeth.
– Who told you about my retirement plans? Bell responded nonchalantly.
– So what about the victim? I reminded.
– He was shot in the stomach – that’s all I can say for now. There is no visible burn along the edges of the wound, there are no traces of gunpowder on the clothes, so they did not shoot at close range. It’s too early to talk about the murder weapon: the cartridge case was never found.
Why not!
– And the bullet?
– There is no outlet, so it is stuck inside. Bring the guy to me in the dissecting room – and I’ll pull her out in no time.
– Are all the cartridges in place? I asked, nodding at Schumer’s revolver.
– Yes. It’s on safety, the perpetrator had his own gun. We didn’t find it.
I got to my feet and walked over to the table to put down the cup.
– You can pick up the body.
Bell looked outside and whistled. Car doors slammed shut, and feet in huge boots stomped on the porch. He didn’t want to see the orderlies loading the cop’s twisted body onto a stretcher. It’s better to have a look around the house. I took a step towards the only door leading out of the living room: beyond it was a small hallway. A staircase ran up along the right wall, under which a guest toilet was sheltered, and a spacious kitchen was visible ahead.
Nothing of interest was found in the toilet. In addition, the light bulb burned out – it hardly occurred to the killer to look here. I closed the door and went straight ahead. The food in this house was treated with indifference. Looking in the kitchen cabinets, I found nothing but a few packs of spaghetti and canned meats. All household utensils – a couple of pots and a frying pan. The only knife, however, was in excellent condition: sharpened and cleanly washed. Plates and cutlery are new and inexpensive, like everything I’ve seen here.
Mrs. Schumer doesn’t seem to like cooking. Does it even exist? There are no female photos in the living room. Is the victim a single father? Widower or divorced? I did not want to ask my colleagues, they are not very friendly. It’s easier to look through a personal file in the precinct, all the information about the family is entered there.
Returning to the corridor, I climbed the narrow stairs to the top. There were three doors leading out of the semi-dark hall on the second floor. The middle one was ajar, behind it was the bathroom. I looked around briefly and, finding nothing relevant, pushed open the left door and entered the master’s bedroom. A narrow bed stood along one wall, opposite a built-in wardrobe, with doors painted beige to match the walls – a minimalist, even ascetic setting. The bed is lined up. This guy is used to discipline. The only decoration was a pair of dumbbells lying near the window.
“Like empty,” Wilkins said from behind.
– More like a bachelor’s room, don’t you think?
– It seems that a woman has not been here for a long time.
– If they did, it was obviously not every night.
In the closet we found a few shirts with coat hangers and an evening suit in a paper bag. On the shelves, in addition to underwear, was a neat stack of gray T-shirts and several pairs of basketball shorts folded in a rectangle. Four pairs of sneakers lined up on the closet floor. Sport was not the last place in the life of Henry Schumer.
I crossed the hall and pushed open the third door. The layout of the daughter’s room mirrored the father’s bedroom. However, the nursery turned out not to be childish at all. No toys or books with bright covers, the same dull beige paint on the walls… But there was a dressing table that served as a desk and a shelf with books. Mostly textbooks, several encyclopedias, a French dictionary.
Opening the closet, I whistled: a young lady’s wardrobe could compete in compactness with her father’s, but something else surprised me. All these dresses, blouses and trousers, hanging neatly on the shoulders, belonged to an adult girl. She’s probably not tall, but the little girl in the living room photo has definitely grown up.
– Strange family, huh? – asked partner, as if reading my mind.
– Not the right word. Can’t wait to look into his personal file.
– So we’re going to the station?
“Let’s go,” I closed the closet and listened: it was quiet downstairs, “It seems that our colleagues have already gone there.
Sunnyvale, California, Industry
In the 1880s, 48% of farm and garden work in Santa Clara County was done by Chinese workers. This percentage decreased significantly after the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act. The next ten years saw a significant influx of immigrants from Italy, the Azores and Japan who replaced the Chinese in agricultural work.
In 1897, Walter Everett Crossman bought 200 acres (809,000m) of land with the intent of starting a real estate business. He advertised the area as “Beautiful Murphy”. Later, in the 1900s, a real estate pioneer referred to the land as The City of Destiny.
Also in 1897, the Encina School was opened, which was the first school opened in Murphy. Until that time, city children went to school in the nearby town of Mountain View.
In 1901 the residents of Murphy were notified that they could no longer use the name Encinal or Murphy for the local post office. Then it was decided to give the city a new name – Sunnyvale.
Sunnyvale continued to grow when the dried fruit companies boomed in 1904.
In 1906, Joshua Hendy’s ironworks was moved from San Francisco to Sunnyvale after the company building was destroyed by fire in the 1919 earthquake.06 years. This plant was the first non-agricultural enterprise in the city. Joshua Hendy’s factory soon moved from mining equipment to high-tech products such as ship steam engines. That same year, Libby (Libby, McNeill & Libby – a Chicago meatpacking company) decides to open a fruit packaging factory in Sunnyvale. Today, a water tower, painted to match Libby’s first fruit tin, marks the location of the old factory.
In 1912, as a result of a general vote of residents, Sunnyvale was officially approved as a city.
Fremont High School was opened in 1925. Until that moment, a military base functioned on the territory of the school. Aircraft bound for Moffett field stopped here to refuel. On the school grounds there are still buildings of the old military style, including a hangar in which wrestling classes are now held.
In 1930, Congress decided to locate the West Coast dirigible base at Sunnyvale. This naval air base was later renamed Moffett Federal Airfield.
During World War II, the demands of the wartime economy caused agrarian holdings in Santa Clara County to give way to high-tech industry. The workshops of the Joshua Hendy factory assembled ship steam engines, ship guns and rocket launchers to support military capabilities. With the growth of the defense industry, a labor shortage in the agricultural sector began to grow, but this shortage was soon filled by emigrants from Mexico who arrived in Sunnyvale.
After the war, fruit orchards and corn fields were cleared for new homes and offices. In 1956, the Lockheed Aircraft Company moved its headquarters to Sunnyvale. In 1969, AMD was founded in Sunnyvale, a microelectronics company (AMD is now Intel’s main competitor in the microprocessor market).
In 2003, most of the remaining horticultural holdings owned by Olson (English C.J. Olson) were liquidated due to the construction of a shopping center. The last horticultural site in Sunnyvale is now located just behind Las Palmas Park (eng. Las Palmas), but it is also planned to be liquidated to use the land for building houses and shops. But there are still quite a few gardens that are the property of the city, such as the garden in the area of the city’s cultural center (English Community Center).
As the geographic center of Silicon Valley, Sunnyvale is home to a number of high-tech company headquarters such as Juniper Networks, AMD, Palm, Inc., Network Appliance, Spansion, Yahoo, and Ariba. The city also hosts several aerospace and defense companies such as: Lockheed Martin (the company’s largest office), Honeywell, Northrop Grumman (the Hendy Ironworks museum is located on its territory). Spirent Communications also has an office in Sunnyvale.
Also partly bordering Mountain View, Sunnyvale is home to NASA’s Joseph Ames Research Center for the study of the Moon and Mars.

Sunnyvale (eng. Sunnyvale ) is a city in Santa Clara County, California, United States. It is one of the major cities in Silicon Valley. The 2000 census reported that Sunnyvale had a population of 131,760.
The city is home to US Air Force Station Onizuka (commonly referred to as “the blue cube”). The base, named after astronaut Ellison Onizuka (eng. Ellison Onizuka ), a member of the crew of the deceased Space Shuttle Challenger, is the primary satellite surveillance station of the United States military forces.
Sunnyvale is one of the few cities in the United States that has an integrated public safety system where all personnel are trained as firefighters, police officers and paramedics at the same time so they can participate in any emergency response.
Sunnyvale is the 18th safest city in the US (2005).

Geography
Sunnyvale is located at 37°22′7.56″ N and 122°2′13.4″ W.
Sunnyvale is bordered by San Francisco Bay to the north, Mountain View to the west, Santa Clara and San Jose to the east, and Cupertino to the south.
According to the US Land Registry, the city covers an area of 58.6 km² of which 55.8 km² is land and 1.8 km² (3.05%) is water. The city is located at an altitude of 39 m above sea level.
Climate
On May 4, 1998, Sunnyvale was hit by an unusual F2 tornado during a severe thunderstorm, causing significant damage, resulting in approximately $4 million in damage. Tornadoes are very rare in the San Francisco Bay Area, and oddly enough, this tornado had an anticyclone rotation.
History
When the Spaniards first arrived in the Santa Clara Valley in 1770, these lands were quite densely populated by the Ohlone Indian tribes (English Ohlone ). Mission Santa Clara was founded here in 1777 by the Oloni Indians who converted to Christianity.
In 1842, Rancho Pastoria de las Borregas (Spanish: Pastopia de las Borregas ) was allocated to Estrada and Inez Castro (English: Estrada Castro, Inez Castro ). On some of these lands, the cities of Mountain View and Sunnyvale subsequently arose. Two years later, another allotment of land was allocated to one of the few Native Americans, Lupe Ynigo (Spanish Lupe Yñigo ). His land was originally named Posolmi ranch (eng. Posolmi ) in honor of the Indian village that was located on these lands earlier. Posolmi Ranch was later renamed Ynigo Ranch.
In 1844, Martin Murphy Jr. (eng. Martin Murphy Jr. ) and Mary Murphy (eng. Mary Murphy ) traveled in a wagon along the California Way and completely crossed the Sierra Nevada mountain range. In 1850, Martin Murphy Jr. bought a piece of land on the Pastoria de las Borregas ranch for $12,000. Murphy established a wheat farm and also started Bay View.0167 Bay View ). After Murphy’s death in 1884, his lands were divided among his heirs.
In 1860, the San Francisco and San Jose Railroad came to an agreement to establish Murphy Railroad Station, which led to the construction of a railroad track to Bay View. Later, another railway station “Lawrence” (Lawrence) was created on the southern border of Bay View.
In the 1870s, taxation, imports, and soil degradation caused grain farms to become unprofitable in Santa Clara County. Small fruit farms have replaced large grain farms. In 1871 James and Ellois Dowson (Eng. James and Eloise Dawson ) founded a fruit cannery in the Santa Clara area. Horticulture and canning soon became the dominant industry in the area. The invention of the railway refrigerated wagons further strengthened the position of fruit farms. Fruit farming became so common that in 1886 the San Jose Chamber of Commerce named Santa Clara County the “Garden of the World.”
In the 1880s, 48% of farm and garden work in Santa Clara County was done by Chinese workers. This percentage decreased significantly after the passage of the Chinese Immigration Prohibition Act (Eng. Chinese Exclusion Act ). The next ten years saw a significant influx of immigrants from Italy, the Azores and Japan who replaced the Chinese in agricultural work.
In 1897, Walter Everett Crossman (eng. Walter Everett Crossman ) bought 200 acres (809000m²) of land with the aim of engaging in real estate trading. He advertised the area as “Beautiful Murphy” (Eng. Beautiful Murphy ). Later, in the 1900s, a real estate pioneer referred to the land as “City of Destiny” (Eng. The City of Destiny ).

My child has been a student of this chilcare center since it’s opening day in March of 2006. It feels so good to find a childcare center that really loves and care about the children as well as the families. My son can count and say his ABC’s in spanish as well as play the game of chess and he’s only 4 yrs old. I am so glad to have found a childcare center like this they come few and far between. Thanks Mrs. Wescott for all your hard work and dedication to our children. So if your looking for a center where love and learning grow hand in hand this is the place.

Vine training – vine pruning for beginners. Photo – Botanichka
Which gardener has not dreamed of a pergola or a gazebo covered with grapes? And so that large clusters of transparent pink (blue, green, yellowish) berries hang right above your head! Here’s another to collect statistics: who tried to do this and how many gardeners got the desired result? Not like a dozen bunches hanging from above, namely, as in the pictures – a full-fledged harvest. Probably a few, very enthusiastic. None of my friends got this result. For various reasons, where a powerful limiting factor prevails – climate. But many have received dense dense vine thickets and console themselves with some kind of harvest, shade and large lop-sided leaves for dolma. About how to force the grapes to engage not in growth, but in fruiting, I will tell in this article.
Raising grapes — vine pruning for beginners
About the insidiousness of grapes
When I first moved into my husband’s house (this was in the Khabarovsk Territory), my husband was engaged in pruning the hybrid Amur grapes that grew on the plot. As a rule, in autumn, before wintering. Over the summer, the grapes overgrown completely wildly and fruited so – well, if only to eat.
I started cutting grapes in the summer not because I was so smart – I didn’t know almost anything about grapes then – it was just that the wildly growing vines constantly clung with their whiskers to the rope on which I hung the laundry, and they terribly interfered. And having picked up a pruner, it’s hard to stop – I shortened all the long shoots.
Three weeks later, history repeated itself, and then again. As a result, the “bald” grapes ripened earlier, since the tassels received more sun. The result inspired me to study the topic and start a global experiment. The next year, I started cutting grapes from the moment the young shoots grew, to the pitying sighs of loved ones. In the summer, I cut and plucked every 2 weeks! Stepchildren, this grape shoots immediately after the removal of the previous ones, and very plentifully. By autumn, grapes were harvested three times more than usual.
The situation described is not surprising. Grapes need to grow, conquer space, which he tries to do. For friends in the Khabarovsk Territory, Amur grapes without pruning tightly braided a gazebo for the third year, for the fourth year they spread to a neighboring birch, and now a few tassels hang at a height of 6-7 meters (for Amur grapes and 10 meters is not the limit, he is not afraid of frost ).
Fruits are the way to multiply as much as possible in adverse circumstances, therefore grapes are not grown in industry without pruning. Pruning is not only autumn or spring, but also several summer ones, depending on the vigorous growth of the variety.
Three years ago, already in the Kuban, I placed two wine varieties on the southeastern side of the shed. According to the characteristics, one variety was positioned as a moderate growth, the second one was declared by the seller as medium growth. In the third year, with the same pruning, the moderately tall one stays within two meters, the medium-sized one climbed onto the roof, crawled into the attic (what does he need there, in the dark?), With abundant long shoots, he draws an area of 6 square meters. Fruiting in volume is the same. Conclusion: the information of sellers must be filtered through the Internet without fail, while local forums are preferable.
With such vigorous varieties, which most often have a lot of “wildness” in their genes, most of all hassle. And winter-hardy varieties, for the most part, carry these genes. So cut, cut, cut!
Grapes need the maximum possible growth with the maximum possible amount of foliage, and we need large sweet berries. At the same time, all this does not work: resources, whatever one may say, are limited by the capabilities of the root system.
Over the centuries of domestication of grapes, gardeners have developed basic rules for directing the activity of the bush to the right place. Limiting the volume of the plant during the entire growing season turned out to be the most advantageous solution. Pruning, pinching, removing stepchildren and extra leaves during spring, summer, autumn, force the bush to direct resources into fruits, so that, if not for themselves, then at least for children. At the same time, you don’t need to cut everything in a row, so you can be completely without a crop.
First, to make it clear, about the principles of grape fruiting. For fruiting this season, you need a strong ripened last year’s shoot – one or more. It is he who is fixed horizontally, young shoots will climb out of his buds with a “comb”, which will lay fruit brushes. It is better if there is no more than one brush per shoot, then the grapes will be large and the brush will be full. The most fruitful part of last year’s shoot is the middle third.
This last year’s shoot with young growth and harvest is a disposable organ, in the fall it will have to be decisively removed. For next year’s harvest, accordingly, it is necessary to grow a new young strong shoot this season, placing it vertically so that it is not spent on branching. Branching from it will be required in the next season.
That is, the vine in the current season is allowed to: grow several (4-6) young shoots from last year’s shoot and lay inflorescences on them; grow 1-2 young strong vertical shoots from the bottom of the vine. Everything else (additional shoots, stepchildren) must be removed in its infancy. It pecked or grew a little – they broke it off or pinched it off. Removing young shoots is less traumatic for the plant than pruning hardened shoots with secateurs. Even on the fruit-bearing process, the crown must be pinched when 5 leaves form above the brush, and maintained in this form.
In autumn, the shoot with fruiting shoots is cut out completely, new strong vines (which grew vertically) are cut to a third and wrapped up for the winter. Or left on a support if the variety and climate permit. And so every year.
All these abuses of the plant add stress to it and reduce its resistance. Therefore, our well-bearing horticultural varieties are noticeably less resistant than wild or free-growing ones. This applies to both diseases and winter hardiness. The vine stores all the substances necessary for wintering in the bark and buds, and we cut this down a lot in the fall. An unpruned vine winters noticeably better, but spring pruning causes a strong “weeping” (outflow of juice), due to which it loses health and may even die.
Significant reserves necessary for initial spring development are also made by grapes at the root base and perennial wood. To increase the volume of perennial wood, small stems (one or several) are formed in grapes at the very beginning of cultivation – in grape terminology they are called “sleeves”. From them, the shoots described above grow.
In autumn, the shoot with fruiting shoots is cut out completely, new strong vines are cut to a third

When planting a new or updating an old, neglected bush, one should decide: what, in fact, is ultimately seen in the future?
A shady arbor with good fruiting is possible only in the south, and even then with a proper location, and from resistant varieties. That is, if you need shade and decorativeness, the easiest way is to plant girlish grapes or Amur grapes, and not bother with shelter and weekly processing. And a few berry tassels will be a bonus.
Large bunches with tasty berries will be produced by the vine with proper placement and regular care (including treatment for diseases to which cultivars are very susceptible), so decorativeness is in last place here.
Grapes are a light-loving plant, they want the sun to be as much as possible. Extra lighting, as practice shows, does not happen in our latitudes. There is always little. Even the western orientation, according to my observations, the vine does not favor. The sun loves grapes so much that every leaf and every bunch should be well lit. That is, the thinner the crown, the better.
It is in Central Asia and Cyprus that you can give grapes some independence on pergolas: there is a lot of sun there, but water is not very good (more often even very bad), and grapes do not rage as green as in more humid regions. Drought is a severe stress that forces the vine to bear fruit.
Requirements for pruning, plucking, processing, and for most varieties and shelter for the winter, transparently hint that a low bush is desirable. In order not to climb ladders every two weeks, demonstrating the wonders of tightrope walking, and not to suffer when packing a plant for the winter. The maximum height for fruit-bearing shoots is 1.5-2 meters to reach with your hand. Non-fruiting shoots (which are for next year’s harvest) can be 3 meters high, but they need to be arranged in such a way that they grow vertically.
Vertical flat placement of the bush with an approach from two sides is the most convenient for its processing. With regular removal of excess growth, both leaves and brushes are well illuminated. Not bad and placement against the wall, but there is worse lighting. Although there is a good option – the location of the grapes at the white southern wall. Or a white screen on the south side. Reflected light is slightly worse than direct light.

Brief Technique of Working with Grapes
When it is decided that fruit grapes are needed, a suitable place is found and a suitable strong support is built, the work with the vine can begin.
In the first year, 1-2 strong vertical shoots are grown in grapes, pruned in autumn, leaving 4-5 buds and packed for the winter. In the spring, overwintered shoots are fixed horizontally, shoots will climb up from them with a “comb”, which will lay fruit brushes. For the first fruiting, 1-2 brushes are quite enough, for testing. Closer to the center of the bush, strong vertical shoots will break through, for a start one or two are enough, even if they grow vertically, this is for next year’s harvest.
In the summer they pin everything superfluous, as described above. In autumn, horizontal shoots are shortened to 30-40 cm, cutting off the fruiting shoots from them – these will be perennial “sleeves”. The vertically growing shoots are shortened by a third and packed for the winter along with the “sleeves”. Then there will be an annual repetition: last year’s shoots – horizontally, new ones, from the “sleeves” – vertically. The horizontal ones are cut to the “sleeve” in autumn, the vertical ones are shortened by a third and hibernate.
Old neglected bushes that are self-sufficient, produce a lot of shoots and foliage, and the number of berries they have is a mockery of the owners, the easiest way to renew. To do this, you need to dig out the base of the bush to the place where the sleeves go to one point, cut off the unnecessary sleeves completely, and shorten the necessary ones (for example, directed in different directions and parallel to the support) to 20 cm. Sprinkle with crushed coal and bury back. The following year, this bush is allowed to grow 2-4 young strong vertical shoots, everything else must be removed. In the fall, cut to 1/3, hide for the winter. Next is the standard loop.
In general, it is worth starting. And there, after the first harvest, and interest in the subtleties will appear, experience will be gained, you see, and it will reach a fruit-bearing arbor.

Parable “On Education” Young the woman came to the sage for advice. — Wise man, my child is a month old, how should I raise my child: in severity or in kindness? The sage took the woman and led her to a vine: — Look at this vine. If you do not cut it, if, pitying the vine, you do not tear off its extra shoots, then the vine will run wild. Losing control of the growth of the vine, you will not wait for sweet tasty berries. But if you shelter the vine from the sun and its caresses, if you do not carefully water the roots of the vine, then it will wither and you will not get sweet tasty berries … Only with a reasonable combination of both, you can grow amazing fruits and taste their sweetness! As a reasonable combination of affection and severity contributes to the upbringing of a normally socializing personality, so the interaction of the entire staff of our kindergarten is aimed at the versatile development of children, taking into account their age and individual characteristics.
