In Colonial Williamsburg, Bruton Parish Church had about 2,000 members that worshiped in this building. People had to pray at the church at least once a month. Some of the members had different beliefs, but still went to a place that worshiped what the British wanted. Bruton Parish encouraged freedom of religion and to pray to whoever people wanted. The patriots learned about freedom of religion at Bruton Parish Church and wanted to have their own religious view. With many church members, people would talk about current events and would find out important news by having multiple conversations among many different people. After having a dispute at the Capitol building, sometimes members of the council and burgesses would go to the church and
Every forest has a story to tell. By looking closely at its habitants, that story can be interpreted. Much of this narrative is written in the trees: their age, their tolerance to shade, and the rate at which they grow are all characteristics that can imply a lot about their environment. Exploring these relationships and how they connect with each other can indicate the health and history of the land. Heiberg Forest, located in northern New York, was once used for agricultural purposes in the 1800-1900’s. (Nowak, Lecture Notes) Much of the land once used for farming was left to regrow back into a young forest. The life history of different tree species can be determined by examining the most common species in Heiberg.

“Outdoor education is in line with current thinking, but also echo’s the philosophy of the McMillan sisters.

The story is set in a remote community named Wirrawee in a 21 century context. This is stated through out the book. “Lee lived in town, like Fi. "Lee and Fi, from Wirrawee" we used to sing.”(Ch 1. P15) This Town is rural and right next to a formidable mountain range. The author describes the town and its surroundings with in the book with: “Way in the distance you got glimpses of the rich farmland of the Wirrawee district, dotted with houses and clumps of trees, the lazy Wirrawee river curving slowly through it. And on the other side was Hell” (Ch 2. P19) Wirrawee is a country town with many farms surrounding it. It is a small tight night community who live directly next to a large mountain range which is quite mysterious and majestic. The
Teesdale’s industrial heritage is just as enticing as its scenery, and this walk has a good mixture of the two. The woodland around Hudeshope Beck sustains a rich variety of wildlife and makes a superb finish to the walk.
After doing the exhibition on forest schools I have learnt a lot about pioneers who have influenced forest school. Forest schools initially started in the 1950’s in Sweden and a concept of the feature was later introduced
The writings of John Wycliffe and the Lollards function as sort of a prequel to the protestant reformation that would sweep through England and Europe in the sixteenth century. It is clear that the Lollards were not all perfect representations of Wycliffe’s beliefs. Furthermore, just like the many divisions of Protestantism, Lollardism was made up of many groups of differing opinion. It was not a monolith. However, there are numerous discernible similarities in belief between Wycliffe, and his varied followers, and the eventual English Reformation.The writings of John Wycliffe were a significant precursor in the political and religious developments of the English Reformation.
To give an analysis of the Rock Brook School, an assessment of the site visit must be made. Overall, based on the site visit, I was impressed by all aspects of the school from the time I walked in until the time I left. When I first arrived at the school, in order to enter the building, I had to be buzzed in and was greeted in the reception area by a staff member. I signed in and was given a visitor tag to wear during my visit. I was informed that the Director, Ms. Caterson would be with me momentarily. While I waited, I had the opportunity to observe the staff’s interaction with the students. The staff was very engaging with the students and everyone seemed to know everyone’s name. Outside the classroom, names of each of the children, the name of the teacher, teaching assistant, and speech therapist were posted next to the door. The school had a very warm and welcoming environment. The staff were extremely friendly and said hi when they walked by. Where I was sitting, most of the children seemed very young and had varying degrees of disability.
While getting the permissions and scheduling the times for observation, I returned to visit on (25/2/2015). In Alsh 'ab secondary school, the researcher observes two secondary school teachers there.
