Meire et al., 2015, 2017; Sørensen et al., 2015) Studies on biogeochemical cycling in Scoresby Sund which is the largest fjord system in the world and influenced by several marine and land-terminating glaciers Scoresby Sund differs from other east Greenland fjords due to its unique topographic and bathymetric structure consisting of several narrow (~5 km) inner fjords with depths of more than 1,000 m and a wider (~40 km) and shallower (~600 m) outer fjord Both the inner fjord arms and the outer fjord significantly vary in the magnitude and mode of delivery of glacial meltwater exported from the GrIS which allows for the examination of the particular influence of meltwater on the fjord's biogeochemical cycling We examine patterns of carbon cycling and export within Scoresby Sund in an effort to shed light on the influence of meltwater with regard to the functioning of this poorly studied coastal fjord system The study presents a snapshot of the carbon dynamics in Scoresby Sund during the summer season net community production (NCP) and POC flux estimates supplemented with information on the hydrography of the fjord derived from a summer 2016 cruise along a transect from the shelf to the fjord head Further data from a second cruise in summer 2018 were used to discuss circulation patterns within the fjord system special attention was given to processes close to a prominent marine-terminating glacier at the head of a branch of Scoresby Sund Our results show that productivity and POC fluxes were dependent on the degree of meltwater supply with low productivity and high fluxes in the vicinity of glaciers Our study provides for the first time a detailed description of Scoresby Sund's biogeochemical cycling and gives a perspective on how this and similar glacial fjord systems may respond to increasing glacial melt from the GrIS in the future Landsat 8 false color images (OLI/TIRS C1 Level-1 Geological Survey) of the period of sampling (15 to 26 July 2016 depending on image availability and cloud cover) showing the Scoresby Sund fjord system and the fjord parts visited namely Nordvestfjord and Outer Scoresby Sund (OSS) Light blue regions correspond to the ice cover of the GrIS Major marine-terminating glaciers (MTG1-5) and surface meltwater discharges (SMD1-7) are marked in the map and displayed in enlarged images Daugaard-Jensen glacier (DGJ) is indicated at the head of Nordvestfjord White lines at the fjord mouth (A+B) and the entrance to Nordvestfjord (C) mark the positions of the LADCP transects during MSM76 with green pentagons showing where sediment traps were deployed and blue pentagons indicating where the camera profiles were performed the standard sampling program was conducted including CTD casts and in most cases sampling for nutrients and dissolved inorganic carbon/total alkalinity Station numbers are included for stations that are explicitly mentioned in the text Note that some stations were visited twice upon entering and exiting the fjord system three marine-terminating glaciers drain into Nordvestfjord and two into the OSS Seven meltwater rivers flow into Nordvestfjord and two into the OSS Data were collected during a comprehensive sampling program with the German research vessel RV Maria S. Merian (cruise MSM56) (Koch, 2016). Twenty-two stations were sampled between 10 and 19 July 2016 along a transect from the inner Nordvestfjord to the fjord mouth, and additional three stations at the Greenland shelf (Figure 1) The methods were calibrated using certified reference material (batches #102 and #161) supplied by Scripps Institution of Oceanography where PAR(0 m) data was extrapolated from the top 5 measurements Regarding marine-terminating glaciers, the resolution of our dataset does not allow to distinguish between subglacial discharge (surface melt that is discharged through channels at the glacier base) and submarine melt (meltwater from below sea level) (Straneo and Cenedese, 2015) even if we are aware that both meltwater types might enter the fjord waters in different ways Mean concentrations in the Polar Water at three shelf stations were 6.3 ± 1.3 μmol l−1 for nitrate+nitrite and 0.6 ± 0.09 μmol l−1 for phosphate For the depth of the winter remnant layer we took the temperature minima at the individual stations (between 41 and 135 m depth) The net nutrient drawdown was obtained at each station by integrating the difference between the concentration in the temperature minimum and that in the surface layer above it. To exclude dilution by ice melt, evaporation, and precipitation, nutrient concentrations were normalized to a constant salinity of 34.5, as described in Hoppema et al. (2007). We then applied the following equation (modified after Ulfsbo et al., 2014): Accounting for variability in our definition of winter nutrient concentrations resulted in deviations in our estimates of NCP of ±18% (from nitrate+nitrite deficits) and ±41% (from phosphate deficits) from the ones presented here and flux of particulate organic carbon measured in sediment trap samples per station (stations with only CTD and shelf stations casts are not included) four sampling rounds were conducted within 24 h where n (#m−3cm−1) is the particle size distribution in a given small size range and w (md−1) is the average sinking velocity of the particles in a given small size range Since both particle mass m and sinking velocity w scales as a power relationship when expressed as a function of particle diameter d the product of m and w also scale as a power relationship as a function of d We used a minimization procedure to find the factor and exponent providing the best-fit between the trap collected fluxes and F obtained from the in-situ images at the trap depths using the Matlab R2015a function fminsearch Vertical distribution of the (A) total particle volume [cm3l−1] An artifact on a picture at 100 m depth lead to a single high value in (A) but by relating the sediment trap POC measure during the computation process to all pictures within a depth range of 10 m above and below the actual depth of the sediment trap The dotted line in (B) indicates the Martin curve based on the maximum and the deepest POC fluxes the remineralization exponent b from the previous fitting as well as the NCP at the surface were used As most of the camera profiles did not cover the water column down to the bottom, we fitted a Martin curve to the profiles for extrapolation (Martin et al., 1987; Belcher et al., 2016): The Martin curves differ considerably from the POC flux profiles at the surface which might be the result of small particles that could not be detected on the images the general pattern of the decrease in POC flux is consistent: POC flux and total aggregate volume peak in the upper 100 m of the water column and particles are attenuated to low and quasi constant fluxes at depths below 200 m To test the robustness of the findings based on the b value with a more simple approximation of export and remineralization we calculated the ratio between the discrete POC fluxes at 100 m depth and the NCP estimates at the camera stations (by relating sediment trap stations with the closest camera stations) above the PW a ~10 m thick very fresh surface layer was recorded with temperatures sometimes exceeding 3°C most likely reflecting summertime surface discharge of meltwater from the GrIS combined with solar heating in the fjord maximum mixed layer depths are limited to the upper 10 m of the water column During the cruise we noticed the presence of icebergs from calving glaciers in the whole fjord with increasing density toward the fjord head or for the POC fluxes by weighted-average gridding due to the low profile number Bright lines indicate the CTD and camera profiles The approximate positions of marine-terminating glaciers are shown by blue dashed lines and surface meltwater discharge by blue triangles above the panels Daugaard-Jensen glacier is situated close to the westernmost station (left side of the panels) the 27.9 kg m−3 isopycnal deepens from 300 m in the OSS to 500 m in Nordvestfjord indicating higher densities (salinities) to be present in the OSS compared to Nordvestfjord in this depth range This pattern is reminiscent of a deep overflow (spill) of AW across the sill that does not extend all the way to the bottom in Nordvestfjord Figure 5. Same as Figure 4 for the upper 500 m of the water column: (A) temperature (°C), (B) salinity, (C) dissolved oxygen (μmol kg-1), (D) turbidity (NTU), (E) POC flux (g C m-2 d-1), and (F) chlorophyll a fluorescence (μg l-1). Section plots of the nutrient distributions are in Figure 6 Figure 6. Same as Figure 4 for the nutrient distributions within upper 500 m of the water column: (A) nitrate+nitrite (μmol l-1) The depth of the euphotic zone as derived from the 1% depth of PAR ranged between 20 and 69 m throughout the whole study area While light penetration varied in the Nordvestfjord between 20 and 44 m (mean = 32 m it increased toward the OSS and the adjacent Greenland shelf we assume that they reflect carbonate mineral precipitation Figure 7. Least-square linear regressions of (A) Total dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) vs. salinity (R2 = 0.906) and (C) Total alkalinity (TA) vs. salinity (R2 = 0.942). Linear regressions were performed based only on samples with salinities >25. Normalization of (B) DIC and (D) TA was performed according to the formula of Friis et al. (2003) for non-zero freshwater endmembers Dashed lines in (B,D) represent the approximate mean values of the samples with salinities >25 Deviations relative to this line (low-salinity samples mainly from the surface of Nordvestfjord) indicate processes other than conservative mixing that modify TA and DIC concentrations The NCP was high in the OSS (58 mmol C m−2 d−1 for phosphate deficits, 82 mmol C m−2 d−1 for nitrate+nitrite deficits) compared to Nordvestfjord (32 mmol C m−2 d−1 for phosphate deficits, 36 mmol C m−2 d−1 for nitrate+nitrite deficits; Table 2) Visual analyses of net samples from Nordvestfjord revealed that the phytoplankton community was already in a post-bloom stage (B and fecal pellets found in the sediment traps show that intense grazing already diminished the primary production a healthy and thriving phytoplankton community was observed in net samples of the OSS and remineralization in Nordvestfjord (NVF) and the Outer Scoresby Sund (OSS) indicating active primary production and remineralization nutrient concentrations and turbidity increased toward the depth of the AW (200 m) while the POC flux stayed low throughout the water column Figure 11 summarizes the main processes that are discussed in the following chapters As mass should be approximately conserved on weekly and long time scales the tidal correction seems to add to the plausibility of the results The outflow is found in both channels to occur mainly at middepths confined to a layer bounded by the 27.9 kg m−3 at the bottom and the 0°C isotherm (i.e. the flow across section C seems to vary strongly with depth with an inflow of warm AW of 65 · 103 m3 s−1 at the bottom compensated by an outflow of slightly colder AW There is no indication of pronounced horizontal recirculation as was found at the mouth of Scoresby Sund no evidence for horizonal recirculations are found Here the flow seems to vary mainly in the vertical - reminiscent of estuarine circulations with an inflow at depth and outflow above this The inflow of warm AW into Scoresby Sund at depth and the compensatory outflow at shallower levels means that the heat and mass need to be transported upward within Nordvestfjord The gradual warming of the subsurface layer (erosion of PW layer) may be explained by this The fact that the isohalines are essentially flat in the upper 200 m throughout the OSS and Nordvestfjord may mean that there is a balance between salt being mixed upward and the input of freshwater from marine terminating glaciers and icebergs into the subsurface waters of the fjord Since there was no patch of other high nutrients and the chlorophyll a fluorescence was not elevated the surface meltwater must have been the source of silicate and silt We assume that surface meltwater rivers accumulated silicate during their way across the bedrock surface The indirect impact of glacier meltwater discharge on the distribution of nutrients and the resulting productivity in the fjord depends on the meltwater source. Meire et al. (2017) described two possible patterns: a fjord dominated by marine-terminating glaciers is likely to be productive because of enhanced upwelling of nutrient-rich deep water induced by the deep meltwater plume (see also Kanna et al., 2018) a fjord that is dominated by land-terminating glaciers discharges meltwater directly into the surface layer and is therefore characterized by low productivity because of enhanced stratification Even when not much is known about the marine-terminating glaciers in Scoresby Sund it seems as if these factors produced plumes that obtained neutral buoyancy below the photic zone with only having a minor fertilizing effect on primary production The depth of neutral buoyancy can be different for each marine-terminating glacier nutrients were transferred from the Greenland shelf to the OSS in the layer from 40 m to the bottom with concentrations of up to 12 μmol l−1 of nitrate+nitrite; 0.8 μmol l−1 of phosphate; and 6.0 μmol l−1 of silicate It seems as if these waters would not supply the whole Scoresby Sund with nutrients because nutrient concentrations decrease shortly after entering the OSS our stations were located at the southern side of the OSS entrance and thus in the outflowing water (see section 4.1) the connection between the inner fjord waters and the shelf waters in terms of nutrient concentrations would possibly have been clear Above, we discussed why no nutrients arrived in the very surface layer (upper 10–20 m), resulting in a low primary productivity in Nordvestfjord. However, the situation with the nutrients supply to the euphotic zone is more complicated than this. The euphotic zone ranged from 20 to 44 m (see section 3). In a similar depth range of 20–35 m, the chlorophyll a fluorescence maxima were found (Figure 5F) Nutrient concentrations were clearly higher in the deeper waters (>30 m) than in the near-surface water This constellation can be explained by upwelling of nutrients which are consumed by primary producers near the lower boundary of the euphotic zone identified by a chlorophyll a fluorescence maximum the deep maximum of chlorophyll a fluorescence in the fjord is very much influenced by the different meltwater inflows which in turn determine the nutrient availability redistribution of sediments and phytoplankton cells increased turbidity at the bottom and at the surface turbidity was solely elevated at high-oxygen patches near the surface suggesting that only plankton itself increased turbidity also situated at Greenland's west coast reporting on light penetration depth from <1 m near a meltwater outlet to a typical range from 6 to 39 m in the main part again correlated with the concentration of suspended inorganic matter we suspect that the contribution of meltwater from land-terminating glaciers in Scoresby Sund is higher than in Godthåbsfjord Note that there are some uncertainties in the approach of obtaining a freshwater endmember estimate for TA and DIC because low-salinity samples have been excluded from the linear extrapolation as they might have been influenced by biological processes due to the stable freshwater surface layer and the distribution patterns of nutrients which are indicating no upwelling to the surface we believe that the latter is the least likely cause visual analysis of net samples and the catchment of debris and fecal pellets in the sediment traps demonstrated that production was terminated remineralization of part of the organic material after the productive period might have caused our NCP to be underestimated Because these assumptions may not completely hold in a fjord system an overestimation of NCP may have been introduced at some locations in the OSS where we sampled on the southern side of the fjord and nutrient-poor water (see section 4.1 and 4.2.1) generating openings (polynyas and leads) in the sea ice during winter We conjecture that also the ice break-up is affected by tidal dynamics and wind forcing may have acted differently on the winter sea ice cover in Scoresby Sund and in Godthåbsfjord ending up in different timing of the blooms from the fjord mouths to the inner fjords a spring bloom in April/May and a summer bloom in July that was probably initiated by upwelling of nutrients from deeper layers We could not observe such an upwelling of nutrients to the upper surface layer during the time of the expedition but upwelling to the lower bound of the euphotic layer could be deduced from the existence of a maximum of chlorophyll a fluorescence the import of nutrients from the shelf could have either supported a prolonged spring bloom or initiated a summer bloom Our dataset does not allow further analysis of the temporal bloom dynamics in Scoresby Sund Differences in NCP estimates based on nitrate+nitrite or phosphate deficits may be a result of a deviation from the canonical Redfield ratio. This deviation may be caused by different remineralization rates of the nutrients, or a phytoplankton assemblage with a non-Redfieldian stoichiometric ratio. Also, nitrate is more prone to be altered by additional processes other than phytoplankton growth, for instance denitrification and nitrogen fixation (Anderson et al., 2003) both estimates show the same trends within the fjord system we calculated the daily NCP rate based on the number of open water days since winter and averaged out fluctuations in production within this period while the POC fluxes (and the resulting export to the sea floor) are snapshots of the situation during the time of the cruise The density gradients described before may have given the zooplankton additional time to feed effectively before particles sank to a depth were microbial respiration dominated over zooplankton activity At the sill between the OSS and Nordvestfjord a higher POC flux at depth than in the surrounding waters was observed Whether this is caused by the overflow of AW into the basin of Nordvestfjord (see section 4.1) would need further investigations it might be that the sill plays an important role in the distribution of particles and solutes at the entrance to Nordvestfjord our data suggest that the Scoresby Sund can be divided into two parts with particular biogeochemical regimes: The outer fjord part (OSS) experiences high productivity due to the large surface area that reduces the stratifying impact of surface meltwater discharge and the import of nutrients with shelf waters as well as an active pelagic remineralization reducing the sedimentation of organic carbon to the sea floor is the opposite; primary production is limited by the supply of nutrients and shadowing by silts at the surface whereas the export efficiency is high due to ballasting by exactly those silts we assume that we recorded signs of the submarine meltwater export of Daugaard-Jensen glacier; these could not be detected further outfjord due to the gradual mixing with fjord waters from depth confirming that meltwater itself does not introduce additional nutrients (see section 4.2.1) The hydrographical settings and biogeochemical cyclings are therefore profoundly different between Young Sound and Scoresby Sund which makes a direct transfer of Scoresby Sund's conditions to Young Sound regarding future projections difficult We nevertheless believe that a thorough examination of fjords along the coast of Greenland reveal important information on the way Arctic glacially-influenced ecosystems are developing with ongoing climate change even though fjord systems can barely be compared to each other as a whole several hydrographic and biogeochemical concepts are similar and can be related to each other Analyzing the topography of Scoresby Sund in more detail would therefore add significant information for making projections on the future fate of Scoresby Sund's carbon cycle The Scoresby Sund fjord system is the largest fjord system in the world but its hydrography and biogeochemical cycling has never before been studied We presented data from a comprehensive sampling program in summer 2016 They show that circulation and biogeochemical cycling largely depend on the kind of freshwater import from the GrIS to the fjord and on the fjord width that defines the degree how meltwater can act on the hydrography of the fjord We define two different regimes in Scoresby Sund: we assign Nordvestfjord to be a hotspot of carbon burial We analyzed processes close to the glacier front of Scoresby Sund's largest marine-terminating glacier at the head of Nordvestfjord We saw signs of a freshwater plume 8–10 km away from the terminus that obtained neutral buoyancy at 200–240 m depth While NCP was not higher than at other locations in Nordvestfjord the POC flux was high possibly due to meltwater-induced mass mortality of planktonic organisms With ongoing climate warming we anticipate an intensification of the differences between Nordvestfjord and the OSS compared to present-day conditions Investigating the other fjord arms of the Scoresby Sund fjord system would reveal important information whether processes are similar to those we observed in Nordvestfjord This could then be used to give an area-based estimate on production vs whether Scoresby Sund is or will be a source or a sink of atmospheric CO2 Long-term observations are needed to understand the seasonal variability of production and remineralization within the fjord and to assess Scoresby Sund's role in the Arctic carbon cycle our observations highlight the impact of the interplay between fjord geometry and glacial meltwater discharge on hydrography and biogeochemical processes and contribute to the understanding of Greenland's fjord systems and their carbon cycling Conceptual figure of the different regimes in Scoresby Sund influencing the fjord carbon cycle Two-dimensional circulation was observed at the entrance to Nordvestfjord with inflowing water below 400–500 m depth the formation of a three-dimensional circulation pattern consisting of outflowing water at the southern side and inflowing water at the northern side was possible (2) The import of meltwater (3) consists of rising meltwater plumes from submarine discharge and surface meltwater inflow (4) indicates the deep overflow of Atlantic Water across the sill and meltwater discharge result in (5) plumes of high turbidity at the depth of surface and submarine meltwater discharge as well as resuspension The distribution of nutrients is determined by upwelling caused by rising plumes of subglacial discharge and by the import with Atlantic and Polar Water from the shelf (6) Arrows

The sheer volume of ice here means it’s closed nine months of the year, leaving visitors a short window in which to explore. That’s where Secret Atlas’ micro cruise around East Greenland comes in getting you off the beaten track and up close to towering glacier after towering glacier there’s more here than floating ice sheets you could find yourself cruising along Volquart Boons Coast where you can stop to see the lava-sculpted basalt columns of Viking Bay and you may even meet ancient Inuit tribes but discover their hidden off-shoots too: like Hare Fjord and Røde Fjord And the otherworldly landscapes don’t stop there: the 74km-long Ø Fjord boasts an intricate and breathtaking labyrinth of icebergs If you embark on a more traditional expedition cruise, you’d be one of 350 passengers. As one of only 12 like-minded travellers, the biggest draw with Secret Atlas’ Greenland expeditions is that you won’t have to tackle the crowds and you don’t have to queue or wait to get a spot on the next zodiac – it’s ready and waiting deck hot tub and sauna are blissfully quiet and with the best guide-to-guest ratio in the industry it’s easy to soak up all that expert knowledge your smaller (more manoeuvrable) ship is focused on lower impact travel and is therefore better for the environment Edge-of-the-Earth town Ittoqqortoormiit is perhaps one of our favourite stops on a Secret Atlas itinerary Not only is it the most isolated settlement in Greenland but it’s also officially the most remote inhabited community in the Western Hemisphere It has less than 400 residents and is located some 800 km from the next-closest town it’s the gateway to the largest fjord system on the planet cut-off from the rest of the world by sea ice most of the time to reach it you’ll need to employ a helicopter displaying elusive natural wonders like polar bears not to mention a pretty patchwork of technicolour houses – a stark contrast to the otherwise pristine Cruises flex to suit guests and the weather meaning very little time is wasted and you’ll never feel rushed there’s no wasted sea days – guests simply take a Secret Atlas private charter flight from Iceland to East Greenland and less time worrying about potential sea sickness while crossing the infamous Denmark Strait Secret Atlas prides itself on its expertise and evoking the true spirit of exploration and each itinerary is hand-made for explorers which is why ‘Expedition Micro Cruises’ were born These trips prioritise freedom and connection to the wild – giving you that feeling that typically only comes from being a travel pioneer it was a sailing expedition across East Greenland that first inspired the company’s co-founder harnessing the wisdom and insights of photography pros Sign up to our newsletter for free with the Wanderlust Club Firefighters were called to a bus fire at a service station located along an Eastlink-Lakeside ramp in Scoresby at 9.42am this morning Three CFA vehicles from Scoresby and Rowville and several from MFB arrived on scene and brought the incident under control at 9.52am District 13 Commander Matt Hirst said smoke and flames were visible and people were seen evacuating the bus “The kids were all safely evacuated from the bus and the vehicle was parked in an open area away from the petrol bowsers so crews could extinguish the fire,” Mr Hirst said “The petrol station was closed down for a period of time.” There were no injuries during the incident and Ambulance Victoria was not required on scene A rear tyre blowout has been determined as the cause of the fire A replacement bus was organised to transport the occupants View all stories View more contacts The Facebook feed is contained within an iframe and as such is not available via keyboard access.

In August 2023, FUSD launched a literary initiative to help get students reading on grade level by the end of first grade FUSD adopted innovative literacy tools like Reading Progress Reading Progress is a powerful reading fluency tool that tracks a student’s reading skills helping them to focus on specific areas of improvement while quickly providing actionable insights for educators educators and educational leaders have access to data and insights for individual students Integrated seamlessly into Microsoft Teams for Education Reading Progress simplifies the process of creating It offers educators and reading specialists valuable data visualizations for both class and individual performance and growth New enhancements including AI passage generation and AI comprehension questions generation help educators to save time while personalizing learning experiences for students’ needs To gain a clearer picture of Reading Progress in the classroom, Microsoft partnered with LearnPlatform to evaluate the impact of the tool on FUSD K-6 students’ reading achievement The study found a positive correlation between consistent Reading Progress usage and improved reading outcomes for kindergarten through sixth-grade students students who regularly engaged with Reading Progress demonstrated two key improvements: higher reading accuracy and faster reading speeds I used to do fluency individually with the students and it took so much valuable class time they can push themselves to read independently To ensure the findings about Reading Progress were reliable, researchers utilized an approach that meets the rigorous evidence standards for Level II (Moderate Evidence) under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) The research employed a quasi-experimental design This approach compared students who used Reading Progress to those who did not propensity score matching was used to create comparable groups of students Researchers collected and analyzed data on: The analysis showed that Reading Progress had a positive impact on student reading achievement This was particularly noticeable for two cases: when students increased usage and for students from disadvantaged backgrounds Students using Reading Progress consistently showed significantly higher gains in iReady reading scores for both K-2 and grades 3-6 students compared to non-users The average i-Ready score among Reading Progress users was 454: significantly higher than the average non-user score of 448 if a student at the 50th percentile had used Reading Progress they would be expected to perform at the 54th percentile it represents meaningful progress in reading achievement Reading Progress was shown to benefit English language learners and students who qualified for free/reduced lunch The average full year i-Ready score among English learners who used Reading Progress was 440 significantly higher than the average non-user score of 429 An English learner at the 50th percentile using Reading Progress would be expected to perform at the 59th percentile: a jump equivalent to roughly one full grade level For Reading Progress users who qualified for free/reduced price lunch their score was 451 as opposed to the average non-user score of 444 This translates to a possible 50th percentile to 55th percentile jump indicating that Reading Progress can be a valuable tool in supporting diverse learner populations According to elementary school teacher Idia Elegbede-Abode and it helps me to better group the students Reading Progress has also improved my students’ motivation the parents have even been getting involved With Reading Progress taking care of fluency we can use precious class time to focus on comprehension.” Students who used Reading Progress more frequently demonstrated higher reading accuracy and faster reading speeds Seventy-eight percent of K-2 Reading Progress users submitted between two and five assignments per month that were had a 10% higher average accuracy percentage across their assignments the benefits of Reading Progress are that I can have alone time with every kid without having to have alone time with every kid and I know exactly how they’re reading 83% of grade 3-6 Reading Progress users submitted 20 or fewer assignments with those submitting more assignments scoring six points higher on their full year i-Ready Reading assessment These findings suggest that increased engagement with Reading Progress correlates with improved reading performance highlighting the potential benefits of consistent use Reading Progress also really helps to drive my instruction and hit what they really need to learn to become exceptional readers they’ve become much better readers because they are far more aware of their own reading.” Reading Progress is a valuable tool for improving literacy rates across grade levels This study confirms that consistent use of Reading Progress maximized student benefits and enabled educators to leverage data to inform instruction and provide differentiated support to students It even shows potential in reducing achievement gaps Integrating Reading Progress into a literacy curriculum is simple Educators can easily create a practice assignment with Reading Progress through Assignments in Microsoft Teams for Education You can use your own Word or PDF file from your computer Class Notebook or select a passage from the embedded ReadWorks library or use the new passage generator tool Two AI-powered features have been added to Reading Progress passage and

to create a unique environment that will be as relevant in 30 years’ time as it is now Originally purchased by the Spooner family in 1945 the sprawling 200 hectare site represents one of the largest landholdings on Melbourne’s fringe at Scoresby (although now with the M3 and M1 freeways it’s just a short 20 minutes drive from the CBD) The property is still owned and also managed by the same family Caribbean Business Park was designed by architects Andrew Kings and Peter Ryan.Credit: Alex Reinders Developed over a number of decades and now with more than 4,500 people working here it’s surprising that the family’s grandson Ben Spooner knows virtually everyone who comes and goes “How many directors of a company this size knows that one of the gardeners travels two hours every day (one way) to work here,” says architect Andrew Kings who has been involved with Caribbean Park for 20 years with architect Peter Ryan in planning the park’s future together with additional retail,” adds Kings With a lake as the park’s centerpiece and manicured gardens by Oculus landscape architects the two latest low-rise office buildings create another ‘piece in the puzzle’ where each piece is conceived from the ‘future backwards’ “The idea is to look back at this place in 30 years’ time and see that the design still has integrity and a high level of finish,” says Kings with Ryan were as mindful of the spaces between buildings as the structures themselves it’s about responding to the views of the lake and the broader landscape,” says Ryan pointing out the vistas created between buildings together with the generous curtain wall-style glazing We want to continue to create a balance between work and home We also didn’t want a design that was overly fussy or faddish something that would already appear dated in a few years’ time,” says Spooner ‘engaging’ and ‘a place where family (of those working here) would feel comfortable dropping in’ also formed part of the Spooner family’s initial brief here the latest addition includes underground car parking The first thing one is greeted by is an airy cafe with an inverted pyramid-shaped roof for sun protection from the outdoors There’s generous seating on the terrace of the cafe or alternatively a series of outdoor pods with built-in seating and wi-fi for more informal meetings will add an additional 8,000 square metres to the Caribbean Business Park a typical floor spaces extends up to 2,000 square metres In a neighbouring building there’s Waterman where there are individual tenancies including a bank a barber’s shop and the ability to rent a desk or a fully enclosed office from childcare to a gymnasium,” says Spooner who was as mindful of the outdoor amenities as much as those indoors with a portion of the vast estate given over to the Caribbean Gardens and Market that attracts thousands of people each week Kings and Ryan were also mindful of views from the new offices over those below features a roof garden (not for use) but simply to green the outlook and shallow ponds cut a swathe through the central gardens “People shouldn’t have to get in their cars at lunch time They can either dine in the cafe (a restaurant for fine dining forms part of a later development currently under construction) or simply eat their lunches on the manicured grass,” says Ryan The idea of business parks took hold in the 1970s as businesses were keen to relocate from the CBD and inner areas if not Melbourne’s largest in terms of land holdings clearly demonstrates that with the right outlook and master planning “It comes back to the Spooner family’s vision to create a unique environment that will be as relevant in 30 years’ time,” says Kings The architects and private family behind Melbourne's

An avalanche follows like poured powdered sugar. A wave breaks with the boom of cannon fire. Moving to the safety of more remote waters, we survey the trauma from afar. The glacier growls once again.  “Good for the movies, not the environment,” says Bernabe when asked what he feels about the calving slab. “The glaciers are decaying too fast. It’s a tap that can’t be turned off.” He traces his fingers along the icecap’s grooves and between the two peaks that bookend the ice shelf’s onward rush into the sea. “It’s beautiful, but dangerous and scary at the same time.” The next day, we learn to appreciate the intimate dance between bergs, floes and glaciers. Out on the water with Bernabe, it’s part education, part quiz, and I’m soon learning to work out an iceberg’s age, and even temperament, from its colour, with the different hues revealing details akin to a lonely-hearts advert, it turns out. Alabaster-white means young and bubbly, I’m told. Sapphire-blue is more mature, but still likes to travel. Black can be impulsive and dangerously flirty with boats. “Your senses sharpen on land here, but as for things that can bite, chase or kill you, Greenland isn’t like other places in the Arctic,” says Sergey, one morning as we climb to a viewpoint overlooking Øfjord. “Fox, wolf and polar bear are scarce. So too are whale, orca and narwhal. Scoresby Sund is for landscapes on a scale you’ve probably never encountered before.”  I’m alone until the call to return to the ship, when we rejoin the sea and set course back to Iceland. By midafternoon, our vessel — the last arrival of this brief polar season — has left Scoresby Sund. By sunset, east Greenland is behind us, ablaze under a sky of fire, while wholly consumed by endless ice and deep Arctic silence.   Though cruising is a popular way to explore travelling by land allows more exposure to the wild landscapes of south-central Alaska where glaciers meet bear country","link":"https://www.nationalgeographic.com/travel/article/overlanding-in-alaska-where-glaciers-meet-bear-country-in-pictures"},{"description":"Jaagir Manor lies at the pulsating heart of the great Terai ecosystem Getty Images","dsc":"India is home to approximately 75% of the world's wild tigers the majority of which can be spotted within the country's national parks.","ttl":"Luxury collection wild tiger","rchDsc":{"markup":"India is home to approximately 75% of the world's wild tigers the majority of which can be spotted within the country's national parks Patrick and Becky Holden mature their Hafod cheddar behind the farmhouse Scoresby and Boronia suburbs making a name for themselves in KnoxMing Haw Lim 2 Constable Court Scoresby, sold for $200,000 above its reserve for $1.3 million THE heat in the Knox property market shifted in 2017 to the new buyer favourites of Upper Ferntree Gully The four suburbs had median house price growth ranging from 16 to 23 per cent in the 12 months to September Buyers pushed out of more expensive areas have turned to these areas to buy permanent and investment properties Previously hot suburbs such as Wantirna South and Wantirna saw price growth moderate to around 13 per cent in 2017 after strong price growth in 2014-2015 24-26 Tresise Ave, Wantirna South, sold in December for $2.75 million to set a new suburb record price MORE: Parents buy pre-teen kids an apartment each Record price for landmark BMW site Iconic The Castle home shipped to new digs Agents said buyers and investors have focused on less popular suburbs because they offered value for money and also had large blocks suited for subdivision and development the Knox market was described as healthy by agents The year saw auction clearance rates remain strong at between 70 and 80 per cent for much of the region While clearance rate often soared above 90 per cent on some weeks agents reported a drop-off in the number of bidders as the year progressed “Some buyers are holding back and waiting for properties to be passed and preferring to negotiate,” Biggin & Scott Knox partner Emily Grainger said 10 Stradbroke Rd, Boronia, offered luxury features and sold quickly for $1.58 million some vendors could have seven or eight offer for their properties but this decreased to three or four by year end “The buyers are still out there and we see many are locals who are upgrading or downsizing She nominated Boronia and Bayswater as the hot markets this year attracting a wide range of buyers with affordable homes and also after infrastructure upgrades “We see investors and developers snapping up blocks for immediate development or to hold on for the longer term,” Ms Grainger said with this 10 Stradbroke Rd home offera prestige lifestyle The strong demand in Knox continued from 2016 into 2017 but softened after spring Ray White Ferntree Gully director Patrick McConnachie said “There is now a better balance between supply and demand Listings fell in winter but many homes came on the market in spring,” he noted with many vendors well rewarded during the first nine months “The year started strongly in January with high inspection numbers but inspections and offers per property have fallen slightly in the last quarter,” Mr McConnachie added “The market is no longer favouring sellers in terms of huge buyer interest and high prices But it is still a seller’s market due to strong demand.” third parties have written and supplied the content and we are not responsible for it completeness or reliability of the information nor do we accept any liability or responsibility arising in any way from omissions or errors contained in the content We do not recommend sponsored lenders or loan products and we cannot introduce you to sponsored lenders We strongly recommend that you obtain independent advice before you act on the content realestate.com.au is owned and operated by ASX-listed REA Group Ltd (REA:ASX) © REA Group Ltd.

At Alamo Gulch, as Philip Pullman calls the scene in his book The Subtle Knife Lee holds off a zeppelin full of Magisterium soldiers long enough to give John Parry a chance to get away and talked to Slate about what makes this death scene work about playing a character who’s an icon for fans and about Lee finding something worth fighting for This interview has been edited and condensed for clarity When you got the role of Lee a couple of years ago how much of your excitement was about getting to play this final shootout Like it’s one of the most heartbreaking ways to go in any literature I’ve read I think the secret of it is that it’s not one death I watched the reactions on social media when the episode aired in the U.K because they are such a unit and we’ve gotten to love them both and neither did we.” That speaks volumes of the futility of war And when we are thrown into battles that are waged over ideas that are above our pay grade But I also think that Lee’s belief in his personal cause—which is purely that Lyra might live—is heartbreaking because he goes all the way in he’s kind of picking pockets and he’s in bar fights He’s secure in who he is based on the way he banters with Hester he finds someone to care about and someone to … He finds a cause in his life worth fighting for Where did you film the scene and what was the experience like We filmed it way up in the wilderness in Wales One of the things I’m grateful for is that we filmed it sequentially which has not always been the case on this show Whenever you have a show that has a lot of effects you’re filming Episode 4 this day and Episode 3 the next we filmed the whole thing in order over the course of a week So we got to Alamo Gulch on Monday and I was dead on Friday and every step you see in that sequence happened in order Did you have an on-set Hester to interact with I had a brilliant puppeteer who also does lines for me there’s a puppet there that gets erased in post and replaced by the CGI Hester There’s a whole universe out there of readers who I’m sure you’ve encountered over the past couple of years for whom these characters really How does it affect your work to play a character who’s in so many people’s heads already because there’s already been an iconic Lee Scoresby [in the movie The Golden Compass] So when the producers and Jack Thorne came to me and said, “We thought of you for Lee,” I went, “OK, this is just a different direction. They’re drawing more upon the young Lee of Once Upon a Time in the North.” And also “When the Sun Goes Down,” is based on a Will and Lyra moment in that third book And so I’ve also been really pleased to see that the line that the writers have taken with the show is kind of … faithful-plus it’s faithful to the things that I think matter to me as a fan It links Lee and Lyra in a very specific way he senses a kinship with her that is chemical But also that childhood that he faced is also something he and Mrs the fact that he’s able to find a common ground with her is really unexpected She’s kind of the big bad in the first book but she grows into something so much more complicated because she really loves her daughter and would do anything for her And getting to play with Ruth Wilson was like a dream that I didn’t think would happen I have this great cast and I … see some of them.” I never see James McAvoy Lee’s character is cut from a very old-fashioned storytelling cloth He’s a cowboy hero and a marksman and a sly fox how did you approach making him particular to you That’s so interesting, because I feel like Latino representation in the classic Westerns is not … uh … not great, overall. Not great, and that all used to be Mexico, guys. Δdocument.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value", ( new Date() ).getTime() ); What’s the inspiration behind Stanley Burgers and when did it open? Scoresby isn’t ordinarily known for its restaurant hotspots. How and why were you drawn to this quiet eastern suburb? I have lived in the Knox area with my family for over five years. It’s a unique suburb and I felt that it was in need of a unique food venue providing quality meals. My hope is to serve the current community and attract new residents to this area, but this is only the beginning. Our hope is that Stanley Burgers Scoresby is the first of many to open in the future. Tell us a bit about the menu. It’s big on epic burgers and delicious shakes. What was the philosophy behind it?

Our Mykonos Burger, for example, is packed with Greek souvlaki meat. The Waikiki Burger is named after a beach in Hawaii and provides tropical flavours with the addition of pineapple. Our Miami Burger features the famous American mac and cheese patty and our Miyakajima Burger features Japanese pancakes. We are excited to have a very wide selection.
