Problem: Article: Work with children first on the four basic parts of speech: nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. For young children, these will be the concepts that are easiest to grasp. Conjunctions, interjections, determiners, and prepositions are more abstract concepts and therefore difficult for young children. Children learn best when they are engaged in an activity. When it comes to grammar and the parts of speech, try making their learning a game. Set out eight paper bags, each labeled with a part of speech. With the child, write down a variety of words on a set of notecards. Ask them to place each word in its correct speech bag. For every word they correctly place, they earn a point. Rather than present grammar as an abstract concept, try using activities that link the parts of speech to objects and actions that the child would use. One such activity can be done with a class or individual child. Write "Noun," "Adjective" and "Verb" on the board or on a piece of paper. Place an object in a bag. Have a child reach into the bag and--without looking-- feel the object. Ask them what they think it is and write their answer under noun. Ask them what it feels like and write the answer under adjective. Ask them what they would do with it and write their answer under verb. Once you have all of their answers, have them make a sentence using all three of their words. Music helps increase attention and improve memory when learning. Children may find it easier to memorize tricky grammar concepts when it is explained to them in song. There are songs available on the internet or available on children's music albums. Better yet, try to write a song with your class or child that will engage them in the creation process. Songs can provide an easier method for children to memorize the more difficult and abstract parts of speech, such as the conjunctions, interjections, prepositions, and determiners. Mad Libs is a game where one person asks the other for various parts of speech, before inserting these words into a predesigned story template. What emerges is a funny and nonsensical story. Since Mad Libs requires players to understand parts of speech, you will be testing the child's understanding of grammar. They will be so tickled by the resulting story that they will not notice that you are teaching them. This is a fun idea for a large group of children. Gather various outdoor sports equipment (such as hula hoops, cones, jump rope, and balls). Break up the children into groups. Each group must design an obstacle course using sentences that use all of the basic parts of speech: nouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs. They will describe the obstacle course to the other groups using their sentence, and the other groups must set up and perform the described action. Examples of sentences include: Quickly twirl in the green hula hoop. Gently bounce the big ball. Gracefully jump through the spinning rope.
Summary: Start basic. Make a game. Introduce tactile activities. Sing a song. Play Mad Libs. Create an obstacle course.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Mix together Epsom salt and sea salt, then add dried rose petals and rose oil. Use these bath salts to turn a normal bath into a fragrant, skin softening experience. Stir together 1 cup (240 ml) Epsom salt and cup (60 ml) sea salt. Crush a handful of dried rose petals and mix into the salts. Stir in a few drops of rose oil. Scoop bath salts into a thin cotton bag and tie the top. Add the bag to your tub as it is filling with water. Mix together honey and rose petals to make a scented sweetener for your tea or fruit salad. Use honey with a mild flavor so it doesn't compete with the rose. Stir together 1 cup (240 ml) of a light-flavored honey and 1-2 tablespoons (15-30 ml) of dried rose petals. Cover and let sit for five days or up to a week. The longer it sits, the stronger the flavor will be. Strain out the rose petals and use the honey as usual. Mix together seven ounces (200 grams) of dried rose petals and 1 pounds (570 grams) of tea. Use a good quality tea, such as oolong. Store in an airtight, opaque container, and prepare according to the instructions for the tea.

SUMMARY: Make soothing bath salts. Create a rose scented honey. Make rose scented tea.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Leaving the refrigerator door open lets the cold air out, meaning your fridge has to work harder to maintain its inside temperature. Also, try to remember that oven-baked foods will cook more quickly and evenly if you can avoid opening the oven door repeatedly to check on the food. Try to pull everything you need from the refrigerator in one go. Use an oven timer for help with preheating, checking on your food, and remembering to turn the oven off. Putting frozen items in the refrigerator to thaw is safer than thawing them on the counter. Frozen foods also help to keep the interior of your fridge nice and chilly as the cold seeps into the surrounding air. Thawing foods like meat or casseroles all the way will reduce their cooking time once you're ready to start. If you're only using a small saucepan to cook with, put it on the smallest burner. Using a larger burner will allow heat to escape into the room, and does not cook your food any faster. This can be especially helpful around the holidays or if you enjoy baking large batches of pies or cookies. You can also turn off the oven before the end of the specified cooking time; the residual heat will continue to cook the food for several minutes. It'll boil faster that way, and keep steam heat from escaping into your kitchen. If you boil water every day, an electric kettle can save time and energy because they heat up very quickly. For speed and convenience, many people try cooking meals where all the ingredients can be cooked together in one pot. Soups, pasta dishes, and rice-based dishes are great examples of recipes that can be made using only one pot. This may require cooking in stages, i.e., browning the meat, boiling the pasta, and then finally combining all ingredients in the pot to finish the cooking together. Once your pot has reached the boiling point, turning the heat down will save energy by allowing the heat trapped inside the pot to do most of the cooking. Leaving your soup to boil increases the possibility of scorching food at the bottom of the pot, so lowering the heat can have more than one benefit. Cooking outdoors is a great summer pastime, but you can grill year-round if the weather permits. Cooking over an open fire or charcoal grill won't add a dime to your energy bills, and you can cook large amounts of food for use throughout the week.
Summary:
Open the refrigerator or oven door only when absolutely necessary. Thaw frozen foods in the refrigerator. Match the size of the pot to the stove top element. Optimize your preheated oven by cooking several items in a row. Use a lid when boiling a pot of water. Try one-pot cooking. Put soups and stews on simmer. Use a charcoal grill outdoors.
