Caesar is a 7-year-old second grader. Caesar claims that he does not like math. To understand Caesar’s results, you must understand the terms raw score, standard score, percentile rank, and grade/age equivalent. Caesar was tested in basic concepts (numeration, rational numbers, geometry), operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, mental computation), and applications (measurement, time, money, estimation, interpreting data, problem solving). From Caesar’s scores on the Key Math Revised he appears to be slightly above average in math comprehension. An average standard score is 100. Caesar received a standard score of 101 in basic concepts, 102 in operations, and 107 in applications. This shows that Caesar ranked highest in applications, meaning that he is slightly above average in measurement, time, money, estimation, interpreting data, and problem solving, and average in basic concepts.

The grade/age equivalent scores show what grade level matches the student’s performance, and then what age level matches the student’s performance. Caesar received a 7-11 in basic concepts, 7-8 in operations, and 8-3 in applications. These results are interesting, but do not determine his knowledge in mathematics. Grade/age equivalent scores are a statistical abstraction; there is no evidence to support the score. The grade/age equivalent score is an estimation of what the average student can comprehend at a certain age or grade level. The Committee to Develop Standards actually warns for people not to trust these scores as absolute truths of a students’ intelligence. This can be seen on how much these scores differ from the standard score and percentile-ranking Caesar was given. It is highly unlikely that Caesar scored slightly above average on his standard score and percentile ranking, and as high as an 8th grade or eleven year old
The following evaluation presents the components of the normative sample applied in the KeyMath-3 Diagnostic Assessment (KeyMath-3 DA). For reference, a norm sample characterizes as a selected sample of test-takers from various common characteristics such as gender, age, grade, race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or some combination thereof, for the purpose of creating test norms. The KeyMath-3 DA is a comprehensive, norm-referenced measure of essential mathematical concepts and skill which is untimed and individually administered (Connolly, p. 1, 2007). Furthermore, the test consists of 372 full color test items and 10 subtests covering three general math areas: Basic Concepts (numeration, algebra, geometry, measurement, data analysis and probability), Operations (mental computation and estimation; addition and subtraction; and multiplication and division), and Applications (foundations of problem solving and applied problem solving). Additionally, data from the U.S. Bureau of the Census (2004) reinforced the integrity of the normative sample to establish the target counts in age, grade and season, race/ethnicity, geographic region and socioeconomic status.
Many people knew Julius Caesar as powerful and popular Roman general and statesman. Julius was born in Rome the year of 100BC, and later died in 44BC. Growing up Julius had a well-rounded family. His father, Gaius Caesar, governed the region of Asia, and his mother, Aurelia Cotta, was the noble birth. At the age of seventeen, Julius married Cornelia, the daughter of an influential politician in Rome. Then just at 31, Julius had fought in wars and become involved in Roman politics. Although some people might view Julius Caesar as a villain, he was considered to be a hero in the Roman world. Julius Caesar is a hero because he improved the Roman Republic, changed the local governments, and protected the reconstruction of the city-states.
Julius caesar has just come back from slaying an important man to Rome, by the name of pompey. The people of his home are out of work enjoying life as a holiday, or as a day off of work, when they should be working. With these people there are two men who seem to be questioning everyone on why they are off of work, when it is technically not their place to say so or to do so on this day.
In The Tragedy of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, Mark Antony resembles Joe Biden in many ways. These two powerful, political figures have similarities between them that I would have never guessed would be there. For example, both men were allocated important roles to a leader or president. They were both appointed to be second in command, or a vice president to their chief. This also led to them having almost identical occupations in their later life. Another detail about these men is that they both had great loves of their lives at one point. These women both had an influential impact on one of the men’s lives. Mark Antony and Joe Biden have similar ways they speak and use some of the same methods into their speeches and writings. These
The aim of a dictator is to gain complete control over every aspect of a nation or empire, so it is to be expected that this control would extend to their natural and architectural surroundings. Julius Caesar and Adolf Hitler were two such domineering men, with definitive ideas of how their land should appear and function. This essay will explore how two dictators, living thousands of years apart (100-44 BC and 1889-1945, respectively) controlled the design and building of their landscapes. Specific attention will be paid to how each man’s political principles are represented through one iconic symbol of his architectural choices (in this case, the Forum of Julius Caesar in Rome, Italy and the Reichsparteitagsgelände-Nazi party rally grounds-in

Common Core.There are many things AJ loves about math, but common core standards is not one of them. He says that common core makes math boring and makes you do extra work. This to him makes him dislike math, but not enough to make him hate it more than he loves
Mahatma Gandhi once said “There is a higher court than courts of justice and that is the court of conscience. It supersedes all other courts.” This quote illustrates the idea that man must live longer with his conscience than with a simple decision made in a courtroom. The distinction between right and wrong must be derived from one’s morals, not the rulings of the state. This concept of conscience conquering law can be applied to works of literature such as the Sophocles’ Greek tragedy Antigone and Reginald Rose’s Twelve Angry Men.
16. He believes that Caesar has too much power, thinking of others as slaves. He feels that anyone could be like him, but it is their own fault that they are not. He sounded envious of his popularity.
Octavius Caesar is deserving of commendation for his ability to strictly operate upon a political agenda while producing significant results. However, he is not a man as he forgoes humanness for his political strife and even less of a ruler as he is dishonourable and hypocritical in his actions and beliefs. Caesar is a disciplined man and acts logically, in accordance with the values of the Roman Soldier. Thus, Antony who self-gratifies is condemned by Caesar for neglecting his duty as a Roman soldier. Although, Caesar’s questioning of Antony’s loyalty to Rome is valid; it only emphasizes the two traits he lacks the most, honour and loyalty.
When Caesar was seven years old he attended the local school, where he was taught bilingually in both Latin and Greek, and learned the Roman rituals and traditions. Caesar learned not only how to understand the basic concepts of life but learned in what it meant to be Roman. Many “[c]hildren learned to admire such quintessentially Roman qualities as dignitas, pietas, and virtue.” Caesar was told that he was a special human, and that one day all of his acquired knowledge would show the world what a Roman truly
Student A’s is currently being progress monitored on the third grade level for math computation. He is monitored using a variety of assessments. The two most frequent assessments are AIMS Web Computation assessments and Moby Max math fluency. This error analysis will focus on his progress and scores using the Moby Max math fluency program. This is a computer-based program that the student uses daily. He was administered a placement test when he first began using the program that placed him in the appropriate lessons. The student works on his math fluency on Moby Max a minimum of twice a week. The other days of the week he is working on math problem solving on Moby Max.
Julius Caesar is the one of the famous Roman generals. Many may recognize this name from the great works of Shakespeare. Before the great works of Shakespeare, Julius Caesar was famous in his Roman city which. Julius Caesar was a dictator that turned the Roman republic to the Roman Empire. Even though the life time of Julius Caesar took place in 100 BC – 44 BC, people everywhere will mention Caesar’s name and legacy.
The researcher’s main concern was to investigate differences in math perception between those students scoring highly versus those students scoring poorly on national exams. The researcher thought that the solution would be due to cross-cultural differences in achievement.
Imagine living in a great empire run “by the people, for the people.” Now imagine if someone threatened that democracy, someone who could become king if he accepted it, someone who was loved by everybody; let's be honest, we would all want to get rid of him. In Cassius's case, he got his wish. Often a forgotten character behind Caesar, Antony, and Brutus, Cassius was the “big man,” though who got all of this into play all by using his words. In the first lines, he speaks “Fellow, come from the throng. Look upon Caesar”(24). The first words he mutters make him seem as though he is a friend of Caesar's, this goes along with the rhetoric of dramatic irony almost he stands up for Caesar treating him as almost every other man in the play by William Shakespeare; Julius Ceasar. Cassius is a safisticated vermon with the persuasive skill of a king and the vocabulary of a scholar.
