5 Reasons to Play Sports over the Summer

5 Reasons to Play Sports over the Summer Orange County Summer Tutor Tips: 5 Reasons to Play Sports over the Summer Organized sports activities are a huge part of many childrens upbringing. However, the sports season can get to be overwhelming for some students when combined with academic responsibilities and increased homework assignments. If this is the case, summer can be a great time for kids to participate in sports and athletic activities. In fact, students who are not a fan of organized sports can still benefit from more independent forms of physical activity. In order to receive an overall well-rounded education, its a good idea for kids to learn about health and fitness to keep their body feeling well in addition to keeping their mind sharp through academics. 1. Socialization and teamwork Organized sports provide an excellent opportunity to develop essential social skills such as teamwork. The majority of the academic year is focused on individual achievements thus summer sports activities are a great opportunity to learn the value of contributing to a team. Depending on the child’s age and athletic goals, sports activities are ranging from fun and lightly competitive recreational leagues and camps to highly competitive regional sports teams. Summer is also a great opportunity for kids to try out different organized sports to see which ones they enjoy the most. Many sports camps are only one week long and can offer children a variety of choices (READ: 10 Reasons You Need a Summer Tutor). 2. Self-esteem The academic year requires kids to be very competitive if they are going to succeed, especially as they grow older and get closer to college applications. Childrens sports teams are also competitive, but they provide coaching that helps players track improvement and focus on personal goals as well as playing a valuable role as part of a team. Children who gain athletic ability will often be able to enhance their self-esteem and make growing up a little bit easier. 3. Fitness and nutrition Knowing about health, fitness, and nutritious eating habits is also part of a well-rounded education. When children play sports over the summer, they learn about what types of foods can fuel their body and give them more energy and which foods just make them more tired. Kids can also learn about athletics through kinesthetic learning and coordination, which can help their overall fitness and keep them healthy through their teenage years (READ: Irvine Summer Tutor Tips: 5 Ways to Transition to Summer). 4. Problem solving Problem-solving is also a valuable aspect of playing sports, whether in an organized league or a casual neighborhood game. There are tons of variables that need to be addressed when it comes to focusing on a goal of beating another team or learning how to cope when a player is out sick. When children learn to problem-solve as a group or with the help of a coach they learn valuable skills that can be used in a classroom setting as well as in life in general. 5. Making a commitment Choosing a sport to play over the summer also helps children learn about the importance of making and keeping a commitment. If children can choose which sport or athletic endeavor they want to participate in they have a little bit of choice over their schedule and can learn that sometimes it’s a challenge to keep a commitment even to something fun. Learning to prioritize multiple activities (especially for older students who need to multitask) is an important part of growing up and learning to thrive during challenging periods. The summer is an ideal amount of time to commit to something because, if kids end up choosing an activity they dont enjoy, the commitment will only go on for a couple of months at most.

What Is CO2 in Chemistry?

What Is CO2 in Chemistry?What is CO2 in Chemistry? The definition of CO2 in Chemistry is a gas which contains Carbon and other compounds such as Oxygen. Since the Oxygen and Carbon compounds are heavier than the Hydrogen and Nitrogen molecules, the molecule itself is termed as a heavy molecule.There are several types of gas that are known as the chemical elements. Some of these gases include: nitrogen, oxygen, and methane. However, all of these gases have their own characteristics that make them volatile or not volatile. In other words, some gases react with air by being stored under a vacuum while others form bubbles.Methane is one gas that can be bought and stored under a vacuum. This gas is also called the pale yellow gas.When Methane forms under a vacuum, it becomes a very heavy gas. It is extremely flammable but doesn't have any inherent color. There are several disadvantages associated with this gas.For example, if there is an electrical fire extinguisher near the source of thi s gas, it will not explode due to the fact that the pressure will be equalized to the gas. Also, the vapor itself will have great gravity strength thus making it easy for it to rise into the air.Many other common elements that are found in nature are unstable. As such, the heavier molecules are unable to react with the lighter ones resulting in an extremely low density. When you use a dry chemical fire extinguisher, the moisture in the mixture will tend to combine with the lighter elements to produce the mixtures which you would recognize as water vapor.You must realize that most chemical reactions occur in a gaseous state. If there is an airtight container such as a sealed container, then you don't want the gas to escape but instead hold the gas within the container.

Solution: Here the given proportion is 6 : k = 2 : 3. It can be expressed as a fraction in the form. 6 / k = 2 / 3 Now multiply both sides of the equation by k. This gives 6 = 2 k /3. Now multiply both sides of the equation by 3. This gives 2 k = 18. Now divide both sides of the equation by 4; therefore, k = 18 / 2. Hence the value of k for the given proportion 9. Example 2: Find the value of x in the proportion x : 4 = 5 : 2? Solution: Here the given proportion is x : 4 = 5 : 2. It can be expressed as a fraction in the form. This gives, x / 4 = 5 / 2. Now multiply both sides of the equation by 4. This gives 4(x/ 4) = (5 / 2) (4); x = 20/ 2. Hence the value of x for the given proportion is 10.

VT: How far ahead of time should a student begin working on his or her college application? It depends on which part of the application youre referring to. I think its a good idea to work on the activities grid at the end of junior year, as well as to gather information like your parents graduation years (i.e. things you dont tend to know off-hand). But Im also a strong believer that there is such a thing as too early when it comes to essays. I find that students are truly ready to begin in August, after their summer activities have come to a close, and theyve had time to reflect. Theres tremendous growth that occurs over the junior-to-senior summer, and so the better essays come after that. I also find that students who wait until that point tend to go through fewer drafts and write stronger essaysoverall. VT: What are the best ways to go about selecting a terrific essay topic? I advise students to think about the things that they truly care about and that they feel define who they are. Most importantly, do not let the question, What would be a good college essay topic? guide you! A good brainstorming session goes a long way in thinking about yourself, and the traits and experiences that define you. Also, your essay doesnt have to be about a massive life-changing event; in fact, the best topics often reside in the everyday details of life. VT: Are there any essay topics you get tired of seeing or would warn students to stay away from? In theory, theres the possibility of doing any topic well, but I find that writing about getting injured and then coming back from it (or some variation of that theme) rarely generates a truly unique piece of writing that gets the job done. Id also think long and hard before writing about a summer service trip. VT: What is the biggest mistake a student can make on a college application? Students overthink their applications, and, in the process, make themselves seem more generic than they really are. I find that applicants dont let go enough. When youre tense and trying so hard to perform well, it shows and thats not a good thing in the college admissions process. VT: What is the typical process an admissions officer goes through to evaluate applications? Typically, admissions officers read through the Common Application, page by page, in the same order that you see it on your Print Preview. They then review the transcript, recommendations, and any other supporting credentials, and, as they go, they record their thoughts, impressions, and evaluative remarks on some kind of evaluation card, electronic or otherwise. VT: What do you think is the single most important thing a student should make sure they present in the best possible way on their application? Your goal as an applicant should be to present your authentic self to the committee. You get to choose which aspects of yourself to share, but whatever you select, be genuine in your presentation. VT: How should students go about determining the culture of a university, and whether they would be a good fit? I always encourage students to stop regular people on campus who are not tour guides or otherwise affiliated with the admissions department. Ask them what they like and dislike about the college, why they chose to attend that school, and what they would change about it. If you can, its also a good idea to stay overnight with a current student and to pick up a copy of the student newspaper. VT: Early-action, early-decision, binding/non-binding, regular decisions...With so many choices when applying, what do you recommend to students? While Early Action and Early Decision programs tend to have more favorable admission rates, it really depends on the student and the school. The real key lies in picking the right school to potentially apply Early Action/Decision to (assuming theres a place you love enough to do that). VT: How important are grades and standardized test scores when admissions decisions are being made? Theyre both really important, as is the rigor of your curriculum. Rarely does a student get into a college where he or she was really off the mark academically, assuming there are no extenuating circumstances coming into play. Grades and scores serve as a guidepost for the student to determine what is a likely target, and what is a reach versus out of reach school. VT: What tips do you have for students asking their teachers for letters of recommendation? Ask a teacher who has seen your mind truly stretch dont just pick the teacher in whose class you did the best, or in the subject area that comes most naturally to you. The teacher recommendation is supposed to be more an assessment of your intellectual capability, not a character reference, so think about that when choosing between teachers. It also doesnt matter if you think or know whether the teacher is a good writer. You want someone who is going to be able to comment positively on your intellectual abilities, and who will be able to give concrete examples to support that.
