![]() Stella Parks recommends baking the pie at a single temperature (400) for a longer period of time (75 minutes), and even gives you a suggested internal temperature if you’re nervous about doneness, and lo, it was perfect, with a crisp bottom crust (despite having no parbaking step) and with caramel-y juices. I bet you can guess what would actually happen every time I made this: I’d remember to reduce the temperature the first time, never the second, and it also looked overbaked before it was done. Time and temperature changes: Previously, I used the baking instructions from America’s Test Kitchen, which at the time were to heat the oven to 500☏, lower it to 425 after the pie was in, and then, 30 minutes later, reduce it to 375 for the remaining baking time, for about 60 minutes baking time total, which was also rarely enough. Here’s what I do a little differently these days (and do skip right to the recipe if you’re not into the Inside Baseball of all it): But that pie is 12 years old - that pie recipe would be IN MIDDLE SCHOOL right now - it’s okay if it’s not the same person it was in its toddler years and no I’m not projecting, you’re projecting, this is about pie, okay? Out of loyalty to the old pie recipe, I wanted to do talk about in a new post because I know there are people who make it yearly and I don’t want to change the way it’s written. ![]() So I did the only rational thing and brought slices of my pie-brag to everyone I saw for a couple days and then I ran out of pie and made another one using the same tweaks and it, too, was the best apple pie I’d ever made, so I did the only rational thing and made a third one and now I think it’s time for us to talk about what I think has made it so much better. This time, with some help from the genius Bravetart book, I tweaked it a lot, and it was the best apple pie I’ve ever made. I started with the apple pie recipe that’s been on this site for 12 years, but over the years I’ve tweaked it a little at home in small ways (different spice levels, some brown sugar worked in, thinner slices). ![]()

![]() Ann's spelling bee resources, graded spelling word lists, spelling games, worksheets, and other language arts resources have become respected around the globe since she launched Spelling-Words-Well in 2010. Create a grid with game names, books read, practice times and award gold stars for your child to place on the board. Ann Richmond Fisher is a longtime published educational writer, a former classroom teacher and a former homeschool teacher. Some kids really like to have a sticker board on the refrigerator or somewhere in a public place where they can show how well they’ve done. All of your activities should involve praise and parent / caregiver involvement. Special Note: It is helpful for your Kindergarten student to feel a sense of accomplishment. This will help your child be a part of the learning process and learn planning and organizational skills as well as goal setting. ![]() As you find real words, keep score of how many your student found.Īt the beginning of the week, you might sit down and have a team meeting about what you hope to accomplish this week with your student. Help your child read the words as needed. Then start trying consonants in front of them. Then on another card write endings like “un” or “oat” etc. First, create a flash card deck of letters a-z using index cards. Rhyme Game: Take a common ending like “un” and add consonants to the beginning. This game helps with word recognition and it’s something you can do as a family too! Then put them on the floor face down and flip two cards over at a time until you find matches. Is Your Kindergartener Prepared for a Spelling Bee Check Out These 50 Must-Know Words Reading 50 Kindergarten spelling bee words every kid should know Share 50 Kindergarten spelling bee words every kid should know These free spelling bee words will put your kid on the right path to learn English in year. Memory Game: Get some index cards and write down some sight words in pairs. This is a fun activity that helps with word recognition. Then work with your child to put arrows in the book on common sight words. Get stickers from an office supply store that are designed to be taken off (the stickers that are used to mark signature locations). Target Practice: Go to the library and get books with common sight words. ![]() They contain many sight words that will help your student become more familiar with these common words. Online Spelling: Practice our kindergarten spelling lists by importing them into your account. If a judge feels that the speller does not understand the word, he can work with the pronouncer and speller until all parties reach an understanding of the word.Help your Kindergarten student grow his knowledge of sight words by the following activities: Participants in the spelling bee face the judge so that he can see their lip movements and make sure they understand what word they are spelling. The 2020-2021 School Spelling Bee Study List is broken down into three levels of difficulty: One Bee, Two Bee and Three Bee. Judging the Spelling BeeĪ judge makes all the decisions regarding whether or not the words are spelled correctly. The bee ends when a student successfully spells both words. ![]() ![]() If the second student fails to spell the second word correctly, the first student has a chance to spell it. If the second student fails to spell the first word correctly, a new word is given to the first student to spell. If the first student misspells a word, the second student must spell it correctly and must also spell the next word on the list correctly in order to win the spelling bee. When only two students are left in the competition, the rules of the game change slightly. If all students misspell their words in a round, no one will be eliminated and the round will start over. Students who misspell their word are eliminated from the competition. A student can stop in the middle of spelling a word and start over, however he must respell the word the exact way he spelled it before starting over or risk elimination. When he is finished spelling the word, he should once again pronounce it to let the judge and pronouncer know he is finished. When a student is ready to spell a word, he should first say the word to be spelled, then spell it out. If a word has a homonym, which is a word that sounds the same but is spelled differently, the pronouncer is responsible for letting the student know the definition of the word to avoid any confusion in spelling. ![]() ![]() Initially the clubhouse is dilapidated, but Apple Bloom fully repairs it and the clubhouse becomes their headquarters. In The Show Stoppers, Applejack passed on her old clubhouse for the Crusaders to use. The club's purpose is to "work together to find out who we are, and what we're supposed to be", and the Crusaders are very often, if not always, seen engaging in activities in pursuit of their cutie marks. The society is not kept a secret, as the Crusaders later come to sing about it at a talent contest and often shout out the name of their group. The term Crusade refers to any military expedition undertaken by the Christians of Europe in the 11th to the 13th century to reclaim the Levant and convert the Baltics, though it is commonly used as a metaphor meaning a vigorous movement for or against something. They each propose a name for it and Apple Bloom's suggestion–Cutie Mark Crusaders–is approved by everyone. Sweetie Belle suggests they found a "secret society". The three fillies meet at Diamond Tiara's cute-ceañera and form a bond, as all three don't have their cutie marks yet.

In Friends Forever Issue #2, the Crusaders accept Discord as an honorary member. In My Little Pony Micro-Series Issue #7, a Greater Equestrian Mimicker ( Globulus Improbulus) to whom Scootaloo gives the name "Imp" joins them but is later taken back home. Starting at the end of One Bad Apple, Babs Seed, Apple Bloom's cousin from Manehattan, joins them and says she will start a Manehattan branch of the CMC. Their unity is based on mostly being called "blank flanks", ponies who have not yet gotten their cutie marks Imp, rather than being a blank flank pony, is a Mimicker who has not yet settled on one form, Gabby is a griffon, and Lilymoon already has her cutie mark at the time of her joining.Įach of the founding three fillies represents a different race, with Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle being an Earth pony, a Pegasus, and a unicorn respectively.

Elsewhere, he dropped in some unusual outside musical references: Laid Back’s “White Horse” got oddly wedged into “Running With the Night,” Van Halen’s “Jump” filled in a few cracks during “Dancing on the Ceiling,” and the Ohio Players’ “Fire” was mashed up quite effectively with “Brick House.” “Love Will Conquer All” featured the most attractive transition, recast in a quasi-acoustic tropical groove. ![]() ![]() To be fair, Richie did offer some enhancements to a few of his songs. But if he uses his Kodak moments as a gauge, he’ll be serving up nostalgia by the pound when he hits the road, because this audience, mostly in their 40s and 50s, seemed quite content to thumb through the memories of Richie’s musical yearbook. In his defense, Richie warned early in the two-hour show that it was “the tour before the tour,” implying that the set list and arrangements might get a tune-up before he commits to a routine. Richie has a new album, “Coming Home,” to promote, but he spent more time playing old Commodores songs, and a preponderance of synthesizer sounds guaranteed that much of the evening’s material would sound dated and unimaginative. There were no trophies to be had Friday at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles, and for all intents and purposes his concert also was a rewind experience. LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Tuesday’s American Music Awards featured a flashback segment with Lionel Richie in a heavily sequined jacket from his trophy-winning peak in the mid-1980s.

![]() ![]() It becomes tiring in the long run and causes negative thinking in me and I'll most likely stop participating for this reason and focus on other places as it's simply not interesting. ![]() They most likely either didn't like the game for what it is (which again won't change, would it be Ren'Py or RPGM, it will remain a VN and the same game), or just want to state their bias against RPGM in public, OR didn't play the game at all. Now, on F95 50%+ of the feedback is towards the use of RPGM by people that never talk about the actual game, or about the actual content or anything remotely close to the actual work that is put into the game.

Like instead of making the big bad queen lady in any way bad, she's just super fucking annoying while being totally in the right, like yeah she's sexist at the main character but it's not like we don't deserve it. It's so fucking weird, it Doesn't matter.

Putting in the time to get over the beginner hump can be tough. There’s no avoiding it: learning to draw well takes practice. And with an archive of drawing tutorials at your fingertips, it’s easier than ever before to learn from the experience of illustrators working in various styles. For developing artists, the same principle applies. Musicians don’t learn to play guitar by writing original music they learn to play music from other songwriters. “If you’re a true beginner, there’s no shame in just copying as much as possible.” “I started drawing by basically copying anime, and that’s still very prevalent in how I draw now,” Louis says, noting that it’s a beginning step on the way to developing your own style. “Focus on a style that you’re most intrigued by,” graphic novel writer and artist Ethan Young says. It’s notable that this advice comes from many artists. But when you’re first starting out, pulling reference images or observing things in real life is super helpful.” If you reference something enough times, you build muscle memory so you’re able to just draw without reference. “Every working professional artist I know uses tons of reference. “Beginner artists seem to think, ‘If I use reference, I’m cheating.’ There’s this weird mentality surrounding copying,” illustrator and comic artist Jen Bartel says. Trying to pass off the work of another artist as your own is plagiarism, but emulating the work of accomplished illustrators is an observational exercise that can help you improve your drawing skills. The more you understand proportions, the better you can mess around with them if you want to go super stylistic or more realistic - build that basic foundation first.”īuilding off the work of those who’ve come before you is a great way to learn. ![]() “It’s a good idea to understand what goes into building that structure.

There is no such thing as wasted effort in drawing.”įrom flowers to figures, whether it’s a fellow commuter on the subway or a dog at the park, you are surrounded by models you can use to hone your skills.
