The International Primary Curriculum is an idea that began in Britain eight years ago. Today this curriculum is taught in more than one thousand primary schools in fifty-eight countries, including the United States. Educator Martin Skelton co-wrote the International Primary Curriculum, or IPC. He says for children to learn and succeed, they need a program that permits them to learn individually. "Our view is the teachers should be thinking about their kids in their class and why they are not learning and trying to work out what they are going to be doing tomorrow to help individual kids learn much better." He says the idea with the curriculum is to help today’s children become good citizens of the world and twenty-first century leaders. "Most world problems are going to be solved internationally now. I mean no single country is going to solve the environment or terrorism. It’s a multi- cooperational activity." Mr. Skelton says the curriculum has activities built around the development of "international mindedness" starting from the age of five. "We encourage the kids to mingling with schools in other countries, and then of course things like Skype now make that fantastically easy to do." The British American School of Los Angeles is one of a few American private schools that teach the International Primary Curriculum. Second grade teacher Alison Kerr says the main goal is to engage children in the learning process. This term, for example, her class is learning about people important in history. "I got the children to come in secret and dress up with several clues of a famous person. They had to research and bring us ten written clues and the rest of the class had to guess who these significant people were. So the children do not simply just do the same worksheet type of format every single time." The British School in Boston held a fair for students and parents called Around the World in a Day. Emma Northey, head of primary learning at the school, says fifty-one nationalities were represented. She described one activity designed to teach about similarities between different cultures. "The children were each given a passport. They basically knew that they were going around the world in a day and we said to them ’You have to come back with two similarities that you had seen between the different cultures.’ Even the three-year-olds came back to me saying ’Gosh, you know everybody writes. Some people write going down. Some people write from left to right, some from right to left.’" Another educator, Kate Foy of the British School in Washington, says the teacher’s role is to enable students to discover for themselves. "And you kind of have to sit back a little bit. You have to make sure you’re asking the right questions. You maneuver yourself around the classroom and enable the children to learn as opposed to telling them.\ According to Martin Skelton, the environment or terrorism is______.
Volleyball is a team sport played by two teams on a playing court divided by a net. The sport originated in the United States, and is now just achieving the type of popularity in the US that it has received on a global basis, where it ranks behind only soccer among participation sports. Today there are more than 24 million Americans who play volleyball. There are 800 million players worldwide who play Volleyball at least once a week. The object of the game is for each team to send the ball regularly over the net to ground it on the opponent’s court, and to prevent the ball from being grounded on its own court. The ball is put into play by the right back-row player who serves the ball by hitting it over the net to the opponent’s court. A team is allowed to hit the ball three times (in addition to the block contact) to return it to the opponent’s court. A player is not allowed to hit the ball twice consecutively, except when attempting a block. The rally continues until the ball touches the ground/floor, goes "out" or a team fails to return it to the opponent’s court or commits a fault. Volleyball scoring systems are as follows: RALLY POINT SCORING: The team winning a rally scores a point (Rally Point System). When the receiving team wins a rally, it gains a point and the right to serve, and its players rotate one position clockwise. The best of three or best of five games will win matches. Each non-deciding game will be won by the team that first scores 25 points with a minimum two-point advantage (no scoring cap). If there is a deciding game, it will be won by the team that first scores 15 points with a minimum two-point advantage (no scoring cap). SIDEOUT SCORING: Only the serving team may score a point, except in the deciding game when rally-point scoring is used. When the receiving team wins a rally, it gains the right to serve (also scoring a point in the deciding game), and its players rotate one position clockwise. Rotation ensures that players play at both the net and the back zone of the court. A team wins a game by scoring 15 points with a two-point advantage and wins the match by winning the best of three or five games. In the event of a 16-16 tie, the team scoring the 17th point wins a non-deciding game with only a one-point advantage. In a deciding game there is no point cap. What does the word "consecutively" (Line 6, Par
