SORRY FOR ANY MISTAKES THIS IS A ROUGH DRAFT DOUBLE CHECK AND CHANGE THINGS BEFORE YOU SUBMIT IT
In the morning, it’s sometimes easier to hit the snooze button than reach for the cereal. Breakfast often takes the backseat to catching a few more minutes of sleep. As a result, the most important meal of the day is often the one most skipped – a decision that will continue to affect you hours later.
Passing on breakfast is anything but productive, especially for teenagers. Studies show that kids who eat breakfast on a regular basis perform better academically, have increased attendance and make fewer trips to the school nurse’s office. In fact, research reflects that students who eat breakfast each day, on average, score more than 17 percent higher on math tests and are 20 percent more likely to graduate than students who don’t eat breakfast at all.
When kids miss out on breakfast in the morning, they often become distracted more easily, their grades can suffer and they’re more likely to miss class. Still, millions of children in the U.S. start their school days on empty stomachs.
That’s why it’s important to provide an alternative option – one that starts in schools and makes it harder for students to skip an early meal. With some flexibility, all students can get a nutritious start. As classes pick back up in the fall, schools should consider serving food before, during and after the first bell in the morning.
Any teacher knows that the challenging part of serving breakfast at school, however, is that students arrive at different times. Latchkey students, for instance, often arrive earlier than other children. Teenagers, the group that skips breakfast more than any other, frequently get to school just before classes start.
Despite these challenges, it’s becoming increasingly important for schools to find a way to fill students’ stomachs in the morning. Groups in Ohio, like the American Dairy Association Mideast, the Children’s Hunger Alliance, the Ohio Action for Healthy Kids and the Ohio School Nutrition Association, are urging schools to make breakfast a daily routine. By doing this, they're challenging schools to increase the performance and productivity of their students.
Some schools already take steps to make breakfast a priority, and their methods are working. Here are three proven strategies that can increase the number of students who eat breakfast:
Breakfast in the classroom. When breakfast is served in the classroom, students can eat in a familiar, comfortable and convenient environment. Easy-to-eat foods, such as whole-grain cereal, fruit and milk or breakfast sandwiches with milk, are served to children in the classroom as the day begins. As kids finish up breakfast, teachers can take attendance and get the class focused on the day’s assignments.
Grab-and-go. Popular with older students, the idea behind this approach is for students to pick up a bagged breakfast on the way to class, and eat at their desks or wherever their school designates. Paper bags are filled with items such as fruit, a cheese stick, milk and whole-grain cereal or bagels that make breakfast easy and convenient. It can be served in a variety of high-traffic areas such as the cafeteria, hall or entryways, making it easy for students to pick up on their way to class.
Second chance breakfast. Some students simply aren’t hungry when they wake up, but they still need to eat. Second chance breakfasts, which are served after first period, are a great way to reach these students, or even those who ate much earlier in the morning. Like the grab-and-go bags, these meals are designed to be easy to carry and eat on the run.
The key to the program options above is to make eating breakfast as convenient as possible. Some schools even installed vending machines that feature healthy breakfast choices on different floors and in various locations throughout the campus. The more accessible the options, the more likely students are to participate.
It’s important to remember, though, that not just any foods will do. It’s the healthy, nutrient-dense foods such as fruits, protein, dairy and whole grains that jump-start kids’ energy and help them feel fuller for longer. If your child’s school doesn’t offer a breakfast program, reach out to the principal or food service director to see how you can help get one started.
Simply eating breakfast won’t make kids smarter, but it will put healthier, more engaged students in those desks every morning. Before we let our kids skip breakfast, remember why it’s considered the most important meal of the day.

Answer:
Explanation: Emperor Constantine (ca A.D. 280– 337) reigned over a major transition in the Roman Empire—and much more.

The Kingdoms James Baldwin There was once a king of Prussia whose name was Frederick William. On a fine morning in June he went out alone to walk in the green woods. He was tired of the noise of the city, and he was glad to get away from it. So, as he walked among the trees, he often stopped to listen to the singing birds, or to look at the wild flowers that grew on every side. Now and then he stooped to pluck a violet, or a primrose, or a yellow buttercup. Soon his hands were full of pretty blossoms. After a while he came to a little meadow in the midst of the wood. Some children were playing there. They were running here and there, and gathering the cowslips that were blooming among the grass. It made the king glad to see the happy children, and hear their merry voices. He stood still for some time, and watched them as they played. Then he called them around him, and all sat down together in the pleasant shade. The children did not know who the strange gentleman was; but they liked his kind face and gentle manners. "Now, my little folks," said the king, "I want to ask you some questions, and the child who gives the best answer shall have a prize." Then he held up an orange so that all the children could see. "You know that we all live in the kingdom of Prussia," he said; "but tell me, to what kingdom does this orange belong?" The children were puzzled. They looked at one another, and sat very still for a little while. Then a brave, bright boy spoke up and said,-- "It belongs to the vegetable kingdom, sir." "Why so, my lad?" asked the king. "It is the fruit of a plant, and all plants belong to that kingdom," said the boy. The king was pleased. "You are quite right," he said; "and you shall have the orange for your prize." He tossed it gayly to the boy. "Catch it if you can!" he said. Then he took a yellow gold piece from his pocket, and held it up so that it glittered in the sunlight. "Now to what kingdom does this belong?" he asked. Another bright boy answered quickly, "To the mineral kingdom, sir! All metals belong to that kingdom." "That is a good answer," said the king. "The gold piece is your prize." The children were delighted. With eager faces they waited to hear what the stranger would say next. "I will ask you only one more question," said the king, "and it is an easy one." Then he stood up, and said, "Tell me, my little folks, to what kingdom do I belong?" The bright boys were puzzled now. Some thought of saying, "To the kingdom of Prussia." Some wanted to say, "To the animal kingdom." But they were a little afraid, and all kept still. At last a tiny blue-eyed child looked up into the king's smiling face, and said in her simple way,-- "I think to the kingdom of heaven." King Frederick William stooped down and lifted the little maiden in his arms. Tears were in his eyes as he kissed her, and said, "So be it, my child! So be it." The little girl who gives the final answer causes the king to feel
A) struck by her charm.
B) moved by her innocence.
C) alarmed by her insight.
D) mystified by her identity.
Answer:

Explanation:
He was moved by her innocence because the others didn't say anything that truly moved him, but she said something she thought was true and the king was moved by her innocent answer.

There is a movement to have an amendment added to the U.S. Constitution. According to the system of checks and balances, what can be done?
Answer:
For an amendment to be made, two-thirds of the members of each house of Congress must approve it, and three-fourths of the states must ratify it. Congress decides whether the ratification will be by state legislatures or by popularly elected conventions in the several states (though in only one instance, that of the Twenty-First Amendment, which repealed prohibition, was the convention system used). In many U.S. states, proposed amendments to a state constitution must be approved by the voters in a popular referendum.

Answer:
A quipu, or knot-record (also called khipu), was a method used by the Incas and other ancient Andean cultures to keep records and communicate information. In the absence of an alphabetic writing system, this simple and highly portable device achieved a surprising degree of precision and flexibility. Using a wide variety of colours, strings, and sometimes several hundred knots all tied in various ways at various heights, quipu could record dates, statistics, accounts, and even represent, in abstract form, key episodes from traditional folk stories and poetry. In recent years scholars have also challenged the traditional view that quipu were merely a memory aid device and go so far as to suggest that quipu may have been progressing towards narrative records and so becoming a viable alternative to written language just when the Inca Empire collapsed.

Answer:
Since the end of the War, colonial governments had started planning an expansion into the new western territory. In fact, this had become a big political issue among colonists. Now they were being asked to restrict their desires to expand and explore. This angered the colonists. They felt the Proclamation was a plot to keep them under the strict control of England and that the British only wanted them east of the mountains so they could keep an eye on them. As a result, colonists rebelled against this law just like they did with the mercantile laws. They took scores of wagons westward toward the Ohio Valley.
