A Divisional Previews The Atlantic Division 1. Boston Celtics With the big offseason acquisition of Al Horford, the Celtics are hoping to change their recent playoff history; the last two seasons have been two one-and-done, getting swept by the Cavaliers and losing to the Hawks in six respectively. A big hole that the previous two Celtics team had was at the center position. Night in and night out, the center position was among the worst in terms of production. With Al Horford now on the roster

last opportunity to search for help outside the organization, help that could get them over the hump and into the playoffs, where every team, thanks to parity that now rules the day, has a chance at the big prize. Third place in the Metropolitan division is a pipe dream at this point, with New York trailing Columbus by 15

After a tough road loss to the Hornets on Saturday night and a tough loss at home to the Russell Westbrooks on Monday, the Knicks stand at 8-9 before heading into a home and home against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The Chief of Staff to the Supreme Allied Commander (COSSAC) planners proposed to land three divisions (two British and one American) abreast onto Normandy's sand and shingle beaches, followed immediately by two more and flanked on the east, near Caen, by elements of a British parachute division. Many details, including the exact landing date, were not specified by COSSAC in order to leave some flexibility to the Supreme Commander. The weather

The history of the United States Army’s 1st Infantry Division is one of many “firsts.” The most complete history of the division, James Scott Wheeler’s The Big Red One: America’s Legendary 1st Infantry Division from World War I to Desert Storm, describes many of these firsts in detail. The 1st Division was the first U.S. division to be organized in the Army during World War I, the first division to deploy overseas, and the first unit to engage the enemy in Europe as part of the American Expeditionary

82ND ENGINEER COMBAT BATTALION The men who served in the 82nd Engineer Combat Battalion during World War II may have thought they achieved very little but their accomplishments helped in winning the European Theatre of Operation. Their engineer tasks included but were not limited to, erecting bridges, emplacing minefields, creating and continuing to make road improvements to allow for freedom of movement for allied forces.

areas are related and it is critical for educators to support these relationships in the classroom. Multiplicative thinking involves recall of basic facts, the relationship between multiplication and division and underpins the development of fractions. Comprehension of fractions includes the division of objects, fractions as numbers, the multiple ways equal fractions can be represented, as well as being represented as decimals. Place value is a very important underpinning concept of decimals. Place

Michalczuk‟s (2007) understood basic math facts to be an important skill for students to succeed in math. Michalczuk (2007) generalized students who could answer single-digit, 0 – 9, multiplication problems (2 times 3, or 5 times 7, etc.) “Within three seconds will do well at math and those that answer in less than one second will do excellent at math” (p. 1). Perso (2007) has defined the “looking back-to-basics” as a need to teach and focus on the basic arithmetic skills needed as a skill for higher

To introduce the concept of division, I will have the students take out their notebooks and title their pages “division- fact families.” I will ask the students to tell me what they think that division means, and after some discussion, I will ask them to write that division is used to share equally or create equal groups. I will ask the students to give me some examples of when they needed to create equal groups of something. I will provide an example of Halloween candy bags, and making sure that

In general, how successful was the lesson? Did the students learn what you intended for them to learn? How do you know? In general, I feel that this lesson was generally successful. The students, for the most part were engaged and thinking about the North East region. During the previous lesson, we discussed that the regions were divided by climate, culture, geography and economy and the students were able to apply those concepts to the lesson. Because they are familiar with this region, because
