Just Found This As I Was Going Through My College Papers. It Might Help Some Of You Out If You’re Filling

Thank you for the ressource! Langblr is a lifesaver tbh

OKAY GUYS I DON’T KNOW IF THIS HAS BEEN DONE BUT I NEED TO TALK ABOUT BILINGUIS. ya’ll, this site is amazing. it’s a site of free, public-domain bilingual books. and there are SO MANY LANGUAGES. it’s not just french and spanish, but also dutch, mandarin, ukrainian, esperanto and way more. there are only five books but they are all classics and they are all amazing! 

see that? that’s Alice in Wonderland in Esperanto and English. AND IT GETS BETTER. in certain languages, YOU CAN PLAY THE AUDIOBOOK ALONG WITH IT AS YOU READ. it’s also worth noting that you don’t have to have it in english and another language. you can have it in any two of the languages offered. 

anyway, here it is. so please guys, spread the knowledge, because it’s totally great and i have a new addiction.

Such a great stylistic horse!

The reason I've been taught is the Jewish Temple being destroyed. It's like that Temple was destroyed, but the couple now has an obligation to create a spritual one in their home.

The explanation to balance the joy of the wedding, and add seriousness to the occasion I think is based on that. (There's a story in talmud where a rabbi saw the other rabbis there were too excitable so he smashed a really fancy cup and they shut up and chilled a bit.)

I can’t believe Into the Spiderverse casually made Peter Parker canonically Jewish. I feel valid in this chili’s tonight.

Thursday, May 4, 2k17: EXAM TIPS

4. May is AP Exam season! What are your tips for studying for tests?

May Study challenge by nkbstudies

So here in Canada, we don’t have AP at every school and our exams are at the end of June. BUT, I have picked up a few tips. 

1. Make review sheets at the end of each unit. By the end of the semester, these will pile up and you can look back @ summaries of the entire year. Here’s a quick way to create one, s/o to my Math teacher. 

2. Flash cards. Ofc this one is obvious, BUT instead of just defining the term, try to get the term by the definition, work backwards! 

3. Clean/organize/create a new layout for your study. This’ll help to not only distract you but motivate you bc everything will look nice now. It’ll also give your brain a new place to work at. 

4. Practice Worksheets. A lot of you like to rewrite your notes (and so do I!) but another thing that is similar and works well is creating mini worksheets and working on them whenever you can. Whenever I know that I’m going to get these say like four questions wrong, I would make worksheets of about 10 questions and add these ones in them, sometimes worded differently. I do them whenever I have a spare moment, such as on the way home, during lunch break, at homeroom. This forces me to think and eventually causes me to remember them. Try to pick problems that you know for SURE are on the test!
