February sees the birth of jeans, a national park, the Supreme Court, and in Japan they’re throwing beans. And then a cow flew a plane…so be sure you don't miss any of this month's writing prompts!
Here's a sample from this week's collection:
February 4: Today is Setsubun (Bean Throwing Day) in Japan. To drive out evil spirits and prepare for spring, roasted beans are scattered around the house, temple, or shrine. While you scatter them, you chant, "Devils out, happiness in!” Then you collect one bean for every year of your age and eat it. So beans are good luck food in Japan. What is your good-luck food? Why do you think of that food as bringing good luck?

A sample from this week's prompts:
January 25:
The first winter Olympic Games opened in Chamonix, France, in 1924. It began the process of popularizing winter sports for ordinary people; prior to then, only very rich people (or those who lived in the mountains) skied. Do you like or participate in a winter sport, or would you like to learn one? Which one? Why that one? (If you are not interested in winter sports, tell why you feel as you do.)
The novelist W. Somerset Maugham (pronounced MÆHM) was born in 1874. He once wrote: “It is bad enough to know the past; it would be intolerable to know the future.” What about the future would you not want to know? Why?

According to The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, state officials confirmed that LifeSkills Academy had already received over $200,000 as a part of the Milwaukee Parental Choice Program this year before vacating the premises around Dec. 12.
“They moved out, as people say, in the dead of the night,” All Saints Catholic Church’s Father Carl Diederichs explained to the paper. LifeSkills had rented a building owned by the church.
Department of Public Instruction (DPI) documents obtained by The Journal-Sentinel indicated that LifeSkills had been paid $202,278 in taxpayer money this year and $202,278 in voucher payments for the 2012-2013 school year. Since joining the voucher program in 2008, the school had received over $2 million in payments.
But during the last full school year, only one of LifeSkill’s students managed to score as proficient in reading and math.

January 13, 2014 | 12:15pm Modal Trigger Principal at NYC’s worst elementary on time for work — ‘a first in 7 years’ School officials are finally investigating PS 106 whose fur-loving principal Marcella Sills actually showed up to work on time on Monday morning. Photo: J.C. Rice and Dennis Clark
A top city school official was on scene at the notorious “School of No” in Queens Monday to investigate shocking conditions, first exposed by The Post on Sunday, as angry parents and a City Council member demanded answers.
“Every day, my son tells me all they do is watch TV all day long. I teach him how to read, but this school has not helped him at all. All they do is yell at the kids. I ask them why they are always yelling and the teachers say they have to because the principal is so strong on them,” griped Ivelisse Lantigua, 39, whose son is a second-grader at PS 106 in Far Rockaway.
Sources said that fur-loving principal Marcella Sills has an abysmal attendance record and history of uncaring and bizarre behavior.
“The PTA has problems with the principal. My wife is the vice president of the PTA. The principal, she doesn’t care. She dodges parents. She says she’s busy but then she’s just standing around, and always ready to leave,” said Jonathan Pelaez, 26, who was dropping off his daughter for pre K.
After seeing the Post report, new Schools Chancellor Carmen Farina assigned a deputy to visit PS 106 Monday morning.
“What was reported … is unacceptable, and if true will be immediately addressed,” Farina said in a statement.
Sills arrived around 7:30 a.m.
“She hasn’t shown up that early in six or seven years,” a source said.

Did any of the florida teachers that were fired because of 2009 Code Of Ethics Law get their jobs back? I was in the classroom for three years and was let go.
