cooperluver24 asked:


He is a 17yr old Arabian gelding that is 14.3 hands. He rides english and western. He neck reins very little. He rides as smooth as a cadalaic. He is a real sweetie. He picks up his feet very well. He is so good about it that when you set one hoof down he picks the next one up. He is suited for a beginner rider and as a lesson horse. He is also good around kids. Lots of trail miles and loves apples and carrots.

If you could help that would be great. Also, if you might be interested in him let me know.

Thanks

Mikel

krizteniz1 asked:


I am going to be a freshman in high school next year and will be taking the highest english class a freshman can take. I know that we will be reading many novels and I would like to know some that i might read so i can read them over the summer. My current english teacher says that sometimes you will need to read the book twice to understand it fully.

Can someone help me brainstorm ideas on a short story for my english class?

By pcgumban | December 17, 2009
susie asked:


okay so i have an assignment to create a children’s book. the story’s audience is supposed to be like 1st/2nd graders (that would be age 6-7 year olds, i believe) and its conflict is supposed to teach them some kind of moral or lesson, while entertaining them at the same time. i’m having trouble coming up with a topic, so ..help?

my english teacher said she’d actually read our stories to her kids who are about that age, so this question applies to parents mostly :] (what’s a good story you’d want your kids to read)

Why do “experts” say that kids have more capacity to learn languages than adults?

By pcgumban | December 10, 2009
Gabby_Gabby_Purrsalot asked:


I’m not sure how much I buy the theory of children having the capacity to learn languages
so much faster. Picture this: Family moves from another country (doesn’t matter which one) where dad works, there are a couple of people who speaks his native language. Mom stays in the house all day cooking and cleaning and tending to the kids. the kids are outside playing
with the neighbor kids, none of whom speak their native language. They also attend public school during the school year, and maybe attend an ESL class part of the day. So… dad has no real motivation to become fluent quickly because he has friends who can translate at work. Mom is in the house all day with little to no contact to native speakers of English. Kids are outside talking to their friends in English, because that’s the only language the friends speak. I think it’s more about immersion and desire to learn. Kids are generally less self conscious with their language errors, also, and they’re not afraid to try!

Tell me, in which language a kid should learn? English or mother-tongue? there are some hot arguments on my blog and I support mother-tongue, and say any language should be learned through mother tongue.
