Reading is Fundamental Reading is the foundation that a child’s ability to learn is built on. The fundamentals of all learning are based on reading. Research has proven time and time again that reading to your child‚ even as early as pregnancy and infancy‚ helps to spark their curiosity to learn to read. By reading aloud during pregnancy and infancy‚ the ground work is being laid in the development for a child’s love of reading (Promoting Literacy). To help children develop a love of reading

has led to incomplete understanding and underestimation of the influence of social determinants on health. According to Link and Phelan (1995) the social determinants are the ’Fundamental causes’ of diseases. The social factors that are linked to illness include race‚ socioeconomic status‚ gender and stress. A fundamental cause involves access to resources that help individuals avoid risks whereas the individual-level risk factors like poor diet‚ cholesterol‚ exercise and high blood pressure can

in solution to the amount of light it absorbs. It included the observations of absorption or emission of electromagnetic radiation resulting from transitions of atoms or molecules from one energy level to other level. The spectrophotometer measures how much light is absorbed at a given wavelength. When an atom or molecule absorbs energy‚ electrons are promoted from their ground state to an excited state. When a molecule at a ground state absorbs energy‚ it called transition to a higher energy state

Most interhalogen compounds known are binary (composed of only two distinct elements). Their formulas are generally XYn‚ where n = 1‚ 3‚ 5 or 7‚ and X is the less electronegative

It is not only something that can kill you but also can put a strain on you and your family financially‚ emotionally‚ and medically. Lung cancer is formed when the cells of the lungs grow in an uncontrolled way‚ this creates a lump or a tumor which can either be malignant (cancerous) or benign (not cancerous). Radon gases‚ smoking‚ and second hand smoke cause lung

HOW TO UNDERSTAND AND FIND YOUR PURPOSE Being an entrepreneur is in a lot of ways similar to being an explorer. We set out on a long journey‚ regularly pushing our minds and bodies‚ and often have little or no idea of where the road will eventually lead us. As an entrepreneur‚ though‚ it’s important—critical‚ even—to at least know the next few steps of your journey. You might have no idea where you’ll be in 5 years‚ but you’d better have a good idea of what you’re doing in the next few months —

The gross domestic product is frequently used to establish a country’s wealth or standard of living. Even though the GDP is supposed to determine a country’s economic health‚ many nonbelievers think the gross domestic product does not account for the underground economy. An underground
