INPUT ARTICLE: Article: One reason many students and young people don't enjoy reading is that they feel it is always "required," and never a choice. If you can offer them a choice of reading that takes their interests into account, they're more likely to learn to love reading. A choice of how to read can also be helpful. For example, in-class reading periods can be very helpful for some students, while others need to be at home alone in their rooms to focus. A choice of what to read can help young people understand that reading doesn't always mean dry or boring. In addition to the classics, provide options such as magazines and comics. If your home doesn't have many books or other reading materials, it will be more difficult for your child to see reading as something enjoyable that s/he could do even in leisure time. Keep interesting, fun books around your home. Set a good example by reading yourself. If your children see you enjoying a good book, they may be more likely to pick one up themselves. Try reading together as a family. Creating a positive association between reading and family fun time can help take the pressure off of young people to "perform" in their reading. Create a "reading space," either in your classroom or your home. It should not have other distractions and should be a pleasant little retreat where the child can enjoy reading. Use books as rewards. Offer to take your child on a trip to the bookstore to pick out a few new books as a reward for chores or good performance in school. Help your child see that reading can be something that's fun and rewarding. There's no reason that the story has to end when the back cover shuts. Encourage young people to engage with their reading creatively. For example, you could encourage students or your own children to draw scenes from what they read. Performing reading in funny character voices can provide extra drama to reading. Ask questions about how children feel about the reading. Encourage them to think about what might happen next in the story, or write their own continuation. Ask them to create a movie poster highlighting what they think is the most important element from the book. One reason children may feel uncomfortable reading is that they worry they don't understand what they read or will get the "wrong" answer. Be supportive and encouraging of young readers. Never tell a young reader that his/her opinion or interpretation is "wrong." Instead, ask the child how s/he came to this opinion. This will help her/him articulate how she formed her ideas and will help teach him/her about how to hone reading skills. If a young reader tells you that s/he is having trouble understanding, be patient. Don't make the child feel stupid or ignorant for not "getting" the material. Instead, ask questions to find out where the confusion is, and guide the child into stronger skills. Accept every comment, no matter how "wrong" or inaccurate it may seem, as a valuable contribution. Remember that it can be terrifying for young or inexperienced readers to even offer their opinions. If the idea is inaccurate or needs correcting, ask further questions about it rather than rejecting it out of hand.

SUMMARY: Offer a choice. Provide an environment that fosters reading. Encourage creativity. Be supportive and encouraging.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Tails' ears are big, and the mouth area occupies about a third of his head. Use lines and circles in doing so. Use the circle to indicate the tip of the fingers. It is shown in the picture in color pink.

SUMMARY: Sketch a big circle, and 2 smaller circles attached to each other. Add the mouth area and the ears. Sketch the position of the extremities. Add the shapes for the hands. Add the shapes for the socks and the gloves. Sketch the 2 tails using irregular curvy lines. Add the main shape of the tails. Add the fluff beside the mouth area and draw the hair features. Add the eyes. Add another fluff at each side of the chest area. Draw the basic features of Tails. Erase the draft and then, add more details. Color Tails.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You want to use hair tools that are gentle on your hair and scalp. Paddle brushes help your hair lie flat, giving the appearance of longer length, while round brushes create the look of shorter strands. Boar bristle brushes in particular work great to spread natural oils through your hair, which promote hair health. In addition, use elastic hair ties without any metal. The metal pieces on hair ties can snag your ends and cause damages. Metal combs often result in broken ends, so instead use plastic combs instead. When using styling products like leave-in conditioners, mousses, gels, serums, and hair sprays, always select products with natural ingredients over products with chemical or artificial formulas. Chemical products will strip your hair of its natural oils and cause excessive dryness, while natural products will replenish and hydrate your hair. Look for products rich in coconut oil, jojoba oil, castor oil, and almond oil. In addition, styling products with essential oils like peppermint, tea tree, and eucalyptus are great for thickening hair. In addition to natural ingredients, you can purchase shampoos, conditioners, and styling products that are advertised as "volumizing," "thickening," or "lengthening." These are formulated with ingredients that help open up the hair cuticle. You can also use specialty products that offer hair growth. For best results, use a quarter-size amount when you wash or style your hair. if you want some volume as your hair grows. To get the appearance of thicker hair, squirt a quarter-sized amount of dry shampoo into your hands, and rub your hands together. Then, run your hands through your hair at the roots. This temporarily increases the width of your hair strands. Also, dry shampoo helps your roots stand up, giving the appearance of thicker hair. Exposing your hair to high temperatures cause damages, dryness, and split ends. To keep your hair as healthy as possible, try not to use tools like flat irons or curling irons. Instead, wear your hair naturally or consider updos! Apply a heat protectant hair product before you use a flat iron or curling iron if you do use them. If you still want to use heat styling tools, the best tools to prevent damages are iconic dryers and ceramic irons. In addition, you can use other styling options that require less heat. For example, hot rollers are a less damaging option than curling irons.

SUMMARY: Use a boar bristle paddle brush or plastic combs to avoid breakage. Use hair products rich in natural ingredients. Use thickening shampoos, conditioners, and products. Use dry shampoo Limit the use of heating styling tools.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The degree (or "order") of a polynomial is simply the largest exponent value in the expression. If the degree of your polynomial is 2 (there is no exponent larger than x2), you can find the axis of symmetry using the formula method above. If the degree of the polynomial is higher than 2, use this graphical method. Make two lines in the shape of a plus sign. The horizontal line is your x-axis; the vertical line is your y-axis. Mark both axes with numbers at equal intervals. Spacing should be uniform on both axes. Take your polynomial or function and calculate values of f(x) by putting all values of x into it. You now have pairs of y = f(x) for every x on the axis. For each (x, y) pair, make a point on the graph vertically on the x-axis and horizontally on the y-axis. Once you have marked all the graph points, you can connect your dots smoothly to reveal a continuous graph of your polynomial. Inspect your graph carefully. Look for a point on the axis such that when a line is passed through it, the graph splits into two equal, mirrored halves. If you can find a point call it "b" on the x-axis that splits the graph into two mirrored halves, then that point, b, is your axis of symmetry.

SUMMARY:
Check the degree of your polynomial. Draw the x- and y- axes. Number your graph. Calculate y = f(x) for every x. Make a graph point for each pair. Draw the graph of the polynomial. Look for the axis of symmetry. Note the axis of symmetry.
