Summer seasons brings problems to every one. Everyone has to take care of himself during this season. Not only human beings are troubled by this season, even the animals and plants are not spared. Animals and plants also feel the heat. Plants require special attention towards themselves as they cannot move to save themselves from the hot weather. Our garden acquires a special place in our hearts. Everyone has a garden in their backyard which contains some beautiful plants, flowers and tress. We are the master of our garden and it is our own responsibility to take good care of it. Our garden contains numerous flowers, plants and tress which need special attention during the summer season. We must keep some necessary points in our mind …show more content…
5. Plant tress at distance- Plants requires space to spread their roots in the soil. The tress should be planted at a distance so that there is enough space for each plant to grow and develop freely. Congestion may lead to stunted growth. 6. Cut down the dry leaves regularly- To make the garden look more appealing and beautiful, the owner should keep on cutting the dry leaves regularly so that the garden always looks green. Cutting and clearing the dried leaves can make the atmosphere more beautiful. The dry leaves can work as nutrition for the growing plants when kept near the root of the plants in the soil. 7. Plant seasonal tress- To make the garden more beautiful stress should be laid on planting seasonal tress and plants which grow in summer. This will make the garden more look more pleasing to the eyes with the blooming flowers and green tress. 8. Plant tress in a cool place- Planting tress in cool place during summer can help its cause. Plants could be kept safe from excess exposure from sunlight by planting them in a cooler place. 9. Protect your garden from animals- Usually people do not pay attention to proper safeguard of the garden from intruders. But this small mistake can lead to total devastation of the garden. The boundaries of the garden should be appropriately protected so that animals cannot cross that border to gain access to the garden. Animals
A lot of great graphic novels have been challenged this year, one of them would be This One Summer. The book, This One Summer, by Mariko Tamaki and Jillian Tamaki, has received multiple awards, they received the Caldecott Honor award, which is the first graphic novels to ever receive one, but it’s still banned in schools. I don’t believe it should be banned for middle school students, but I do support it’s banning in elementary schools. Middle school students, and high school students, should be allowed to read this since they might have, or gone through similar situations. They could also relate to some of the content in the book like when Rose’s parents were fighting and she didn’t talk to them at all, or when she’s acting out because of that.
The two short stories that we read in this unit, “All Summer in a Day” by Ray Bradbury ,and “Examination Day” by Henry Slesar, both have meanings of their societies. In “All Summer In A Day” the main character, Margot lives on Venus and gets bullied by the other kids on Venus because she has seen the sun back on Earth while they only saw it when they were babies. On the only day where the sun goes out Margot gets shoved into a closet while the kids that bullied her get to go enjoy the sun for the first time in 7 years. In “Examination Day” the main character, Dickie, gets killed because his intelligence quotient is above the amount the Government wants it to be. Both of their societies are highly sophisticated but, they are very different
As with all things, it takes some hard work and effort to keep your garden looking good. However, there are a few ways to make your maintenance work in the garden quick and easy. 1. Get the pH of your soil by taking it to your local garden center or even your agriculture department of the local college or county co-op. By formulating your soil to fit your needs, you will have the best looking garden around. Adding compost and even organic fertilizers are a great choice for maintaining your garden soil. If you can get the pH right, your plants should last for ages. 2. Keep like minded plants together based on needs. You should try to keep plants that need water in one particular area while plants with fewer water needs should be planted in another place. The same principle goes for sunshine as well. Some plants just need a little bit of sun while others need the shade. Keeping like minded plants together takes the guessing out of maintenance. 3. Choose raised bed containers for a controllable approach to gardening. The raised beds allow for easier weed control as well as the proper drainage, fertilizer, watering and more. Plus, you don't have to get on your hands and knees to care for your plants. 4. Mulching is important to plants. Not only is it a material that looks good but also does some great things for your place as well. For instance, mulch is not only attractive but
The journalist stresses that having your own garden can significantly decrease the size of one’s carbon footprint and also brings up the point that “by engaging both body and mind, time spent in the garden is time (and energy) subtracted from electronic forms of entertainment” (Pollan). For those who might question the effectiveness of gardening as means of consuming enough food, Pollan notes that “during World War II, victory gardens supplied as much as 40 percent of the produce Americans ate”. This clearly establishes the credibility of Pollan’s argument and his urgent way of presenting
Veggies, fruits, flowers oh my! Gardens have all of these wonderful, healthy, goodness! Let’s start out with the supplies we need for a delicious garden! For the soil you should buy Miracle Grow if you want your plants to stay healthy and grow large. Fruits, vegetable, and flowers already in plastic pots are a faster and easier way to grow a garden. Also, a pot with a hole in it (for the water to drain in) or the soil outside works best for a place to grow the garden. Another thing is a plastic plate to put under the pot so the water doesn’t get everywhere. The final supplies needed are a watering pot and some water.
In “A Summer Life” Soto is the name of a six-year-old boy who faces a decision between sinning and not fulfilling his sweet tooth desires. This all started when Soto became bored and thought the only way to cure his boredom was through sin. Though Soto knows that sinning is iniquitous he ends up going against all of his religious beliefs and greedily taking the pie for his own longing to eat something sweet. Shortly after, Soto knows stealing the pie was wrong and regrets his decision. In “A Summer Life” Soto shifts from greedy to guilty by using striking imagery, potent ethos, and biblical illusions to recreate his story.
The project identifies and analyse how the vegetation of the area can be influenced by soil composition and climate by performing first hand investigation such as analysing soil type and grain size. It’s also about the aspects of the local environment that have been affected by people and propose realistic solutions to the problems that exist.
We have observed two different short stories, one called “Examination Day” by Henry Slesar, and another called “All Summer in a Day” by Ray Bradbury. “Examination Day” is about how when a person becomes 12 years old they have to take an examination determining their intelligence. Anyone with an intelligence above the norm is considered unacceptable. Anyone smarter than the norm is eliminated. The story focuses on a very intelligent boy taking his Examination, and getting killed for being too smart. The story “All Summer in a Day” is about a colony on Venus that faces constant rain and the sun shining once every 7 years. The story focuses on a girl Margot, from earth who is harassed by the others on Venus since she remembers the sun being
The minute that everybody has been expecting for has at long last arrived. The people are inclining toward the edge of their seats, listening for the last chime to ring to unleash them to freedom. We all love it when summer vacation has arrived, but the time just passes by so fast. A high percentage of the students want there to be a longer summer vacation, but are there really any benefits? Well yes in fact a longer vacation will be associated with many benefits such as increased social life, health benefits, and educational plus financial gains.
The role of gardens play a much more important role in Japan than here in the United States. This is due primarily to the fact the Japanese garden embodies native values, cultural beliefs and religious principles. Perhaps this is why there is no one prototype for the Japanese garden, just as there is no one native philosophy or aesthetic. In this way, similar to other forms of Japanese art, landscape design is constantly evolving due to exposure to outside influences, mainly Chinese, that effect not only changing aesthetic tastes but also the values of patrons. In observing a Japanese garden, it is important to remember that the line between the garden and the landscape that surrounds it is not separate. Instead,
In life, people seem to judge each other based on not only their looks but what they have. Specifically, when people have things we don’t. Ray Bradbury shows this theme in his short story “All Summer in a Day.” Additionally, the song “All Bad” by Justin Bieber comprises a similar them. Both of these stories reveal a universal theme about not judging people based on what they have that you don’t. In both “All Summer in a Day” and “All Bad” we learn that jealousy can affect the way people act and it can make them cruel. However, although these stories are very similar, the way the themes are portrayed draw out differences.
In England and a significant number of other countries, class structure in the education system means the cohort of children placed in a year group together could differ greatly in age. Children born in the summer months can be up to nearly a year younger than their autumn born counterparts. At aged four, this potential year significantly compromises a fraction of the children’s lives and therefore means summer born children may be behind in terms of development hindering their academic ability in comparison to their older counterparts. Whilst there is ongoing research into the topic, presently there are many conflicting views on whether delaying summer born children’s entrance to primary school would be beneficial stemming from the belief that they are disadvantaged. Whilst there is evidence to prove that they perform consistently worse academically on tests (Daniels et al., 2000), there are also findings to suggest that it is not their month of birth that leads to potential shortcomings in terms of academic achievement.
It is the author’s view that in education, the nature of curriculum is continuously changing and as educators we have not yet found a 'successful curriculum '. Ross (2000) suggests that a reform of the curriculum needs to be undertaken and that as educators we need to continuously evaluate and critically challenge our curriculum frameworks for the growing changes in society. He continues his metaphor and uses the imagery of a garden to highlight what gardens are used for by society. Ross (2000) suggests that gardens can be used for a number of different purposes; whether it be to provide food, as a means of exercise, for leisure reasons or simply as a means of relaxation. He also asks the question “who are gardens for?” and what is their purpose (Ross, 2000, p.2). Ross (2000) uses this metaphor to argue the importance that when developing a curriculum, educators first need to consider what the purpose of the curriculum is and who is the
My favorite season of the year is summer because of the warm weather, the school vacation, and the endless fun. I really enjoy the warm weather because it’s the perfect atmosphere to do outdoor activities. My favorite part about summer has to be the fact that school is closed for two months. During summer, you’re free to do whatever you want, not worrying about curfew or waking up early for school. Summer time is a great time to relax with friends and family by soaking up the sun at a beach or simply having dinner together.
With every end, there is a beginning. When the cold winter ends, there is a new beginning in nature where the trees and flowers start fresh as they grow once again. The poem “Spring”, takes us, readers, to a setting where the place shows complete nature. We are to imagine aesthetic scenery where spring has arrived and everything that happens during this season is happening right in front of us.
