November birthdays are associated with two gems; Citrine and Topaz. The warm color of Citrine is said to be a gift from the sun and itâs believed to be a healing gemstone. Topaz is most desired in its rich orange Imperial Topaz color but it is found in a variety of rich colors like blue, pink and yellow.
Brevity: Mini-lessons are short, usually 10-15 minutes, rarely more than 20. They are intentionally kept short so that the majority of each writing period will. be available to the students for writing. Focus: Each mini-lesson covers a single, narrowly defined topic.
Our student body is diverse-all are welcome, and all ï¬nd appropriate challenges. Students can attend 2 two-week mini-courses on mathematics, statistics and the gamut of physical sciences. During the summer of 2007, we will offer at least nineteen such mini-courses, nine of which will be in mathematics and statistics.
