  2. Viruses • A virus is a program that can ‘infect’ other programs by modifying them to involve a possibly evolved copy of itself. • Viruses effect program files , but they can also effect certain types of data files that support executable content. • A virus may not be infectable, but can allow for a viral code. Vulnerabilities in certain products can allow data files to become manipulated in a way that it can cause the host program to be unstable.

  3. Elizabeth Blackwell • Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England. • Samuel Blackwell, her father, moved the family to the United States in 1832 where he became involved in social reform. His involvement in abolitionism led to a friendship with William Lloyd Garrison. • After Samuel Blackwell died Elizabeth and her two older sisters, Anna and Marian, opened a private school with their mother to support the family. • She wanted to become a woman physician. She went to Henderson, Kentucky as a teacher and studied medicine privately. • After suffering from going blind in one eye, Elizabeth gave up on being surgeon. • However, she didn’t give up on being a doctor.

  4. Why Learn French? • One reason to learn French is to be able to talk with the people who speak it. • Your trip to another country will be greatly enhanced in ease of communication and friendliness if you speak the language. • Speaking a new language helps you understand more about the culture and people. • You can also enjoy literature, film, and music in the original language.

  5. Good Fats, Bad Fats, and Worst Fats • Unsaturated fats are divided into monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats. Both types are thought to have beneficial effects on cholesterol levels. • Monounsaturated fats help lower bad (LDL) cholesterol while also boosting good cholesterol (HDL). • Polyunsaturated fats are thought to help lower total and bad cholesterol, but monounsaturated fats are favored because some research says that polyunsaturated fats are less stable. They can also reduce levels of good cholesterol as well as bad. • Polyunsaturated fats are sometimes a good source of omega-3 fatty acids. They are found mostly in cold-water fish, nuts, oils, seeds, dark leafy greens, flaxseed oils and some vegetable oils.

  6. Basic Stroke Information • A stroke is a sudden impairment in brain function. • If someone is having a stroke, they may not be able to talk, speak clearly, walk, or move a limb because blood has stopped flowing to an area of the brain. This is usually caused by the blockage of or rupture of a blood vessel. • Strokes leave behind long-lasting neurological impairments. The severity of these depends on the damage to the brain. • There are two major categories of stroke: ischemic and hemorrhagic. Ischemic strokes are caused by a physical blockage of blood flow to the brain. Hemorrhagic strokes are caused by a blood vessel inside of the brain rupturing.

  7. What Should Be in a First Aid Kit? • A cell phone should be kept in a first aid kit for anyone who does not carry one themself. • Exam gloves, band aids, tweezers should all be kept in a first aid kit. • Hand cleaners should also be put into a first aid kit because washing your hands with warm water and soap is the best way to keep germs from spreading.

  8. Leonardo Pisano Fibonacci • Also referred to as Leonard of Pisa, Fibonacci was a number theorist. • He was born in approximately 1170 and died 1250. • He was born in Italy but he obtained his education in North Africa. • Fibonacci gave us our decimal number system which replaced the Roman Numeral system. • It was this problem that led Fibonacci to the introduction of the Fibonacci Numbers and the Fibonacci Sequence which is what he remains famous for today. The sequence is 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55.. This sequence is that each number is the sum of the two proceeding numbers.

  9. King Tut • Tutankhamen also known as King Tut was a pharaoh in the Egyptian late 18th dynasty. He is thought to have ruled the second half of the 14th century B.C. • King Tut’s tomb was found by Howard Carter in 1922. Not much was known about Tutankhamen beyond his death as a teen, but the discovery of his tomb was of tremendous importance to archeology of Ancient Egypt. • Recent DNA evidence reveals King Tut to have been the son of Akhenaten, and probably, a sibling. • He seems to have led battles in Syria and Nubia.

  10. Helping Deaf Children • When you have a child with hearing loss in your classroom, you need to be careful not to assume that this student has other developmental or intellectual, delays. Typically, many of these students have average or better than average intelligence. • Many students with hearing disabilities will have some form of specialized equipment recommended by the audiologist. Help the child to feel comfortable with his/her device and promote understanding and acceptance with other children in the class. Remember that the devices do not turn the child’s hearing back to normal. • Noisy environments could cause grief to child with a hearing device. Keep noise around the child to a minimum. • Check the device often to ensure it’s working. • Cushion chair bottoms. • Use visual approaches if possible. • Provide visual materials and demos whenever possible.
