by Cindy Trumbore

Maiden Point Shelter is overflowing with cats and dogs. Every cage and kennel is filled to capacity, and heartrending meows and barks come from extra cages lining the hallways. The shelter is at its most overcrowded since it was opened in 1993. 2 There is a simple solution to the overcrowding at Maiden Point Shelter: more people in our area need to adopt pets, rather than buying them. Yet judging from the “designer” pets we see on the streets of our town, the public seems strangely unconvinced of this fact. There are two main reasons for the problem, according to Biz Raleigh, the director. First, we had a mild winter, so more cats were outside. As a result, there are more litters of kittens now. There is another surprising reason, however, for the overcrowding. Raleigh has noticed a direct link between the number of mortgage foreclosures in our area, and the number of pets that get brought to the shelter. When people lose their homes, they are often forced to find housing that doesn’t allow pets. 3 In fact, Raleigh says that in the past six months, Maiden Point received nearly 200 cats and dogs alone. That’s a 100% increase over the previous six months. “We’re at the point where we’ll have to start putting unadoptable animals down to make room for the ones with a better chance,” Raleigh says, sighing. “I really don’t know why people looking for a pet don’t come here first.” 3 She points out that pets from pet stores have often been raised in unclean, unhealthy, crowded conditions, especially dogs from so-called “puppy mills.” In contrast, the shelter pets are spayed and neutered, and treated for problems such as heartworm and fleas, before they are adopted out. 3 People especially need to open their minds to adopting older pets, she says. Some people assume that when they get an older pet, they will have to “undo” the bad habits it

learned from a previous owner. However, Raleigh says that just the opposite can be true. 4 “An older pet is often much more used to small children and is housebroken compared to a kitten or puppy,” she says. If you have never owned a pet, consider getting one from Maiden Point. There are many benefits, starting with your health. A study done at the State University of New York at Buffalo in 2001 found that dog and cat owners with high blood pressure who were in stressful job situations had lower increases in pressure than people without pets. There is a very practical reason to consider adopting from the Maiden Shelter. A “designer” dog or cat can easily cost $500 to $800. At Maiden Point, says Raleigh, for a mere $100 you can get a cat or dog that is already spayed or neutered, a month’s supply of pet food, a safety collar or flea collar, and a free check-up with a veterinarian. In case you have your heart set on a certain breed, Raleigh says that many popular breeds, such as labs, beagles, and Siamese cats, occasionally turn up at the shelter. 5 So if you’re pet-shopping, make Maiden Point Shelter (555-555-2000 or www.maidenpointshelter.org) your first stop. You can fill out a short application, get your references checked, and go home with a pet the same day. The shelter is open weekdays from 9:00 to 5:30 p.m. and Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. through 3:00. The pet you save will reward you with many years of love, gratitude, and good health.

SIOP ® in Practice

A good way to get students excited about reading is to teach them how to properly use the school library and its resources. Work together with your school librarian to schedule a formal visit. Students, especially Beginning and Intermediate students, need to learn about the different sections of the library and how to find books they enjoy. Help them learn how to search for subjects, keywords, or favorite or recommended authors. It’s especially important for them to understand the procedures for checking out and returning books. Introduce students to library staff members who can help them with these activities should they need it.

OBSERVATION PROTOCOL

Lesson PreParation Feature 3: Content Concepts appropriate of age and educational Background SIOP teachers must carefully consider the content concepts they wish to teach and use district curriculum guidelines and grade-level content standards as guides.

Literacy Navigator ©2012 Common Core Edition Intervention that unlocks students’ comprehension of complex informational text Literacy Navigator ©2012 provides a series of lessons in which students learn strategies for reading informational text. Reflecting the latest research on reading comprehension, and using flexible modules that tackle the demands of Common Core State Standards, students will develop the necessary skills that take them beyond their independent reading level. Used as a supplement or as an intervention, Literacy Navigator is made up of five different levels, with 30 Foundations Lessons, 15 Word Study Lessons, and pre- and post- test assessments. Each 45- to 50-minute lesson includes an introduction, work time, guided practice, and reflection. Level locators (pre-tests) in the Assessment and Reporting Online System (ARO) pinpoint the comprehension level of informational text for the student in order to determine appropriate level placement. Checkpoints then monitor and benchmark students as they progress, while post-tests assess student improvement. With the rigor of Common Core State Standards in every lesson, Literacy Navigator is carefully matched to the levels of both the Developmental Reading Assessment (DRA) and the Qualitative Assessment of Text Difficulty. This modular supplemental reading program helps students succeed at high-stakes reading assessments.

Section A:

The natural environment and people Chapter 1: River environments 1.1 The hydrological cycle

Introduction

Fresh water is essential for life on Earth. This water is constantly being recycled as it moves through a cycle known as the hydrological cycle or water cycle. This is a global circulation of water − it is a giant closed system (Figure 1.1). This means that there is a fixed amount of water in the system because water neither enters nor leaves the Earth and its atmosphere.

This chapter is about rivers. They are a vital part of the global circulation of water. They are responsible for the creation of landforms found throughout the world. They are valuable to us because they supply much of the water we use in our everyday lives. At the same time, because of the risk of ﬂooding, they can become hazards that threaten people and their settlements.

the atmosphere – here the water exists either as water vapour or as minute droplets in clouds the land – here water is stored on the surface in rivers, lakes and reservoirs. Water is also taken in by plants and temporarily stored in vegetation. It is also stored below ground in the soil or bedrock. This is known as the groundwater store. Generally speaking, water exists in these stores in a liquid form. However, it can also exist in a solid form as snow and ice, as for example in ice sheets, glaciers and snowfields. 1
