UW-Madison’s Language Institute hosted World Languages Day on November 14, 2013 at Union South. This exciting, college-for-a-day experience introduces more than 600 Wisconsin high school students and their teachers to many of the world languages and cultural topics offered at UW-Madison. The event, which features faculty, students and staff, aims to inspire students to pursue a second or third language regardless of their educational and career goals.

Montessori has its own materials, but there are many I use to supplement, especially as English is not like Italian and students have so many irregular spelling and grammar patterns to learn. The materials address handwriting, phonemic awareness, phonics, spelling, vocabulary, grammar, writing, and reading.

5th and 6th Grade Language Arts students are currently reading My Side of the Mountain by Jean Craighead George. The book tells the tale of a teenage boy living in the Catskill Mountains who raises a falcon hatching to help him hunt. On Monday, students experienced falconry first-hand through the educational program Talons! A Bird of Prey Experience. Lorrie from Talons! shared a variety of raptors with the students and talked at length about their behavior, both in the wild and as companions to humans. During lunch, all students were invited to the gym to watch the birds fly.

UNICODE 5.1.0 meets Or-Omcode∞.1.0
Unicode represents the Tower ob Babel en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Babel In computing, Unicode is an industry standard allowing computers to consistently represent and manipulate text expressed in most of the world's writing systems. Developed in tandem with the Universal Character Set standard and published in book form as The Unicode Standard, Unicode consists of a repertoire of more than 100,000 characters, a set of code charts for visual reference, an encoding methodology and set of standard character encodings, an enumeration of character properties such as upper and lower case, a set of reference data computer files, and a number of related items, such as character properties, rules for normalization, decomposition, collation, rendering and bidirectional display order (for the correct display of text containing both right-to-left scripts, such as Arabic or Hebrew, and left-to-right scripts). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UniCode
Or-Omcode∞.1.0 represents a new Universal Language de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universalsprache derived within the Doctine Of Essense by

Encoding Unicode into the Or-Omcode∞.1.0 all traditional languages become semantically transformed within the new universal language parameters. portal.or-om.org/art/UnicodemeetsOrOmCode/tabid/6319/Defa...
