Why Use Adapted paper?
There are many reasons why a piece of adapted paper can be just the support needed to improve handwriting. Adding a small adjustment to the writing space can make adapted paper which offers visual prompts necessary for legible (and functional) handwriting.
Adapted paper can be used for reasons such as:
- Visual Structure- Visual prompts like highlighted lines, vertical lines of graph paper, or a bold baseline can offer the support needed for line use, letter placement, letter spacing, and letter size.
- Consistent writing space- Adapted paper offers consistent guide lines that structure handwriting, allowing for carryover of visual motor skills.
- Baseline support- Some adapted paper offers a visual or physical cue in the way of a bold baseline or a raised baseline. These visual and physical prompts may support improved baseline use for letter placement, letter sizing, and spacing.
- Visual scanning- Some adapted paper tools offer a margin guideline on the left and right sides of the page. These visual lines support visual scanning skills so that written work starts at the left margin without drifting in toward the middle of the page. The right margin line offers a visual cue to stop at the right side of the page.
- Letter sizing- Some versions of adapted paper include visual prompts or icons for sky letters, dirt or grass letters, and underground letters. This can improve consistent letter sizing.
There are many different versions of adapted writing paper. Trying different styles can be one way to determine which style is best.

Writing Instruction for Special Needs Students
Read Time 2 mins | Mar 26, 2020 9:49:59 AM | Written by: Toolbox
Download the research report below
We all know that one effective strategy is to break down a task into smaller, more manageable tasks. Teachers often segment a five paragraph essay, by asking students to ‘just write the introduction.’ But it’s the word ‘just’ that’s almost laughable. (In fact, do you ever notice how anytime the word ‘just’ precedes a task, it’s usually in attempt to make a difficult process appear easy?) “Just writing” an introduction can be so overwhelming and anxiety-producing for a special ed student that they simply shut down. The question becomes HOW to teach these skills.
Research has shown that focusing on the discrete skills and aspects of the writing process produces higher student achievement and success rates than writing taught with a holistic focus on product. When not overwhelmed with having to ‘fill’ an entire page of lined paper, special needs students, after direct instruction that includes teacher modeling and guided practice, can celebrate being successful at writing an interesting beginning for a story, or writing an enticing lead for an expository piece. A segment of elaborative detail, or of suspense. Small successes along the way encourage them and build confidence.

Renaming MSI was the wrong move
To name the museum of science and industry after ken griffin, who repeatedly badmouths our city and fled to florida with his company, is a shameful stain on a once-beloved institution..
The Museum of Science and Industry in Hyde Park.
Sun-Times Media
As a kid growing up in the near southwest suburbs, there were few treats as special as a visit to the Museum of Science and Industry. The huge train set. U-505. The coal mine. Yesterday’s Main Street. A heart you could walk through.
It was utterly amazing to me and helped foster a love of learning that propelled me to becoming the first member of my fairly recent immigrant family to get a college degree. I am sure I am not alone in having a special place in my heart for the MSI.
Noted philanthropist, businessman and true Illinoisian Julius Rosenwald initially endowed the museum but vehemently declined to have it named after himself. It was for Chicago, not his vanity.
Obviously, Ken Griffin’s vanity is a totally different animal.

To name the museum after such a divisive figure, one who repeatedly badmouths our city and fled to Florida, with his company, after he found he could no longer buy an election in this state, is a shameful stain on a once beloved institution. That’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to his abhorrent behavior, behavior he tries to obscugate with charitable giving just as long as he gets his name slapped on anything he donates money to.
I have probably been to MSI once in the past five years, but I’ve lost count of the number of times I have recommended the museum to visitors to our city, especially ones with children. No more. There are plenty of other great museums in this city to support instead of the one that sold its naming rights like it was a ballpark, to a right-wing Florida billionaire that a huge swath of Chicagoans detest and despise.
Julius Rosenwald would be ashamed.

- MSI to rebrand as Kenneth C. Griffin Museum of Science and Industry — named after big donor who fled Chicago
Nothing wrong with renaming museum
Letter writer Jonathan Rivera writes, “If Ken Griffin can rename the MSI, an institution that sits on public land in a public park, what’s next?” But he’s wrong: Griffin didn’t rename anything. The MSI Board of Directors did. They asked Griffin for money — lots of it — and the quid pro quo was they renamed the museum. Griffin didn’t make them do anything. The only thing Griffin did was something Rivera and I didn’t: donate money so the museum can maintain its greatness.

Grading schools? Give an A+ to public education
One of the problems with the question of grading public education in Chicago (May 14, 2024) and elsewhere is the presumption that almost everything can have a grade. But many if not most grades (except, perhaps in aerodynamics and other precise sciences) are arbitrary. What is the difference between a 3.9 (B) and a 4..0 (A) with a question like this?
Regardless, where is historical humility in this debate? Schools work enormously hard to improve and there is compelling evidence that if equitably funded, with appropriate resources, every school could be a genuine stepping stone to a living wage, lifelong learning, civic responsibility and so forth for a vast range of students. Education has always been a context for dilemmas and debate and if we’re giving grades, I give an A-plus to that fact that public education, including our mayor’s attempt to equalize funding — with all of its ups and downs — survives.

Going back to electric buses
I read where some cities want to invest in electric buses to cut pollution. I wonder how many people realize Chicago once had electric buses crisscrossing the city until the late 1950s and early 1960s. Overhead power lines lined the streets and buses connected with long poles to power them. My dad was very upset when they replaced those clean-running buses with diesels because of sitting in traffic behind them.
Now after more than 60 years they want to go back to what was once the norm for Chicago. Oh well, one step forward and two steps back is typical for Chicago politicians.

China and Russia reaffirm ties as Moscow presses offensive in Ukraine
BEIJING (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin thanked Chinese leader Xi Jinping Thursday for China’s proposals on ending the war in Ukraine, which have been rejected by Ukraine and its Western supporters as largely following the Kremlin’s line.
At their summit, Putin and Xi reaffirmed a “no-limits” partnership that has grown deeper as both countries face deepening tensions with the West, and criticized U.S. military alliances in Asia and the Pacific region.
Putin’s two-day state visit to one of his strongest allies comes as his country’s forces are pressing an offensive in northeastern Ukraine’s Kharkiv region in the most significant border incursion since the full-scale invasion began on Feb. 24, 2022.
China claims to take a neutral position in the conflict, but it has backed Moscow’s contentions that Russia was provoked into attacking Ukraine by the West, and continues to supply Russia with key components that Moscow needs for its productions of weapons.
A joint statement after Putin and Xi met said that both sides believe that for “a sustainable settlement of the Ukrainian crisis, it is necessary to eliminate its root causes.”
Russia has said that the war was sparked not only by the threat posed to Russia by Ukraine and its backers but as necessary to wipe out alleged Nazism in Ukraine.
The Kremlin has repeatedly sought to link Ukraine’s leaders to Nazism, even though the country has a democratically elected Jewish president who lost relatives in the Holocaust, and despite the aim of many Ukrainians to strengthen the country’s democracy, reduce corruption and move closer to the West.
It wasn’t clear if the joint statement’s wording meant China was explicitly endorsing the Russian allegation of Nazi influence in Ukraine.
But the statement also noted that “The two sides pointed out that it is necessary to carry out education on the correct historical perspective, protect the world’s anti-fascist memorial facilities, and protect them from desecration or destruction, and severely condemn the glorification of or even attempts to revive Nazism and militarism.” That echoes Russia’s persistent contention that Western countries downplay the Red Army’s role in defeating Nazi Germany.
China proposed a broadly worded peace plan in 2023, calling for a cease-fire and for direct talks between Moscow and Kyiv. But the plan was rejected by both Ukraine and the West for failing to call for Russia to leave occupied parts of Ukraine.
The largely symbolic visit stressed partnership between two countries who both face challenges in their relationship with the U.S. and Europe.
“Both sides want to show that despite what is happening globally, despite the pressure that both sides are facing from the U.S., both sides are not about to turn their backs on each other anytime soon,” said Hoo Tiang Boon, a professor who researches Chinese foreign policy at Singapore’s Nanyang Technological University.
While both leaders said they were seeking an end to the war in Ukraine, they offered no new proposals in their public remarks Thursday afternoon.
“China hopes for the early return of Europe to peace and stability and will continue to play a constructive role toward this,” Xi said, speaking alongside Putin.
His words were an echo of what China said last year when it first offered a broad plan for peace outlining general principles for ending the war in Ukraine.
Putin said he will inform the Chinese leader in detail about “the situation in Ukraine,” and said “we appreciate the initiative of our Chinese colleagues and friends to regulate the situation.” He added that the two planned to engage in further foreign policy discussions at an informal meeting later Thursday.
After Russia’s newest offensive in Ukraine last week, the war has entered a critical stage, as Ukraine’s depleted military waits for new supplies of anti-aircraft missiles and artillery shells from the United States after months of delay.
The joint statement from China and Russia also criticized U.S. foreign policy at length, hitting out at U.S.-formed alliances, which the statement called a “Cold War mentality.”
“Both sides expressed serious concern about the consequences caused to the strategic stability of the Asia-Pacific region by AUKUS,” according to the statement, referring to the acronym for Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States.
China and Russia also accused the U.S. of deploying land-based intermediate range missile systems in the Asia-Pacific under the pretext of joint exercises with allies. They said that the U.S. actions in Asia were “changing the balance of power”and “endangering the security of all countries in the region.”
Thursday’s meeting was yet another affirmation of the friendly “no limits” relationship they signed in 2022, just before Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
Since then, Russia has become increasingly economically dependent on China as Western sanctions cut its access to much of the international trading system. China’s increased trade with Russia, totaling $240 billion last year, has helped the country mitigate some of the worst blowback from sanctions.
Moscow has diverted the bulk of its energy exports to China and relied on Chinese companies for importing high-tech components for Russian military industries to circumvent Western sanctions.
“I and President Putin agree, we should actively look for convergence points of the interests of both countries, to develop each’s advantages, and deepen integration of interests, realizing each others’ achievements,” Xi said.
In their meeting, Xi congratulated Putin on his election to a fifth term in office and celebrated the 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations forged between the former Soviet Union and the People’s Republic of China, which was established following a civil war in 1949. Putin faced no credible opposition in the presidential race, and, like Xi, hasn’t laid out any plans for any potential successors.
On the eve of the visit, Putin said in an interview with Chinese media that the Kremlin is prepared to negotiate over the conflict in Ukraine.
“We are open to a dialogue on Ukraine, but such negotiations must take into account the interests of all countries involved in the conflict, including ours,” Putin was quoted as saying by the official Xinhua News Agency.
Putin said a Chinese proposal made in 2023, which Ukraine and the West rejected, could “lay the groundwork for a political and diplomatic process that would take into account Russia’s security concerns and contribute to achieving a long-term and sustainable peace.”
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said any negotiations must include a restoration of Ukraine’s territorial integrity, the withdrawal of Russian troops, the release of all prisoners, a tribunal for those responsible for the aggression and security guarantees for Ukraine.
Putin has blamed the West for the failure of negotiations in the opening weeks of the war, and praised China’s peace plan.
Russia-China military ties have also strengthened during the war in Ukraine. They have held a series of joint war games in recent years, including naval drills and patrols by long-range bombers over the Sea of Japan and the East China Sea. Russian and Chinese ground forces also have deployed to the other country’s territory for joint drills.
China remains a major market for Russian military, while also massively expanding its domestic defensive industries, including building aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines.
Putin has previously said that Russia has been sharing highly sensitive military technologies with China that helped significantly bolster its defense capability. In October 2019, he mentioned that Russia was helping China to develop an early warning system to spot ballistic missile launches — a system involving ground-based radar and satellites that only Russia and the U.S. possessed.

Wayfarers Chapel Is Coming Down
The famed chapel in Southern California closed this year because of severe damage from a landslide. Leaders now say it will be disassembled until a new site is found.
By Douglas Morino
Perched among redwoods on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Wayfarers Chapel has served as a spiritual home in coastal Los Angeles County for nearly 75 years.
The glass chapel in Rancho Palos Verdes was a popular spot for weddings, and it attracted photographers for its architecture, sprawling ocean views and manicured lawns. But it was closed in February because of severe damage from a landslide that city officials attributed to recent winter storms.
Chapel leaders said this week that the chapel, a national historic landmark, would be disassembled and stored until a new site could be found.
“We’re all devastated,” the Rev. Dan Burchett, the chapel’s executive director, said in a news conference. “We’ve been working feverishly to do what we can to save the chapel. But the landslide is looming, and it’s a tragedy felt by many.”
Officials hope to rebuild the chapel in a safe, stable spot, either on its current campus or on another plot in the city, said the mayor of Ranchos Palos Verdes, John Cruikshank. The project to disassemble and eventually rebuild the chapel is expected to take four years.
I recently visited Wayfarers, walking under a canopy of redwoods and pines as crashing waves echoed in the distance. Stone walkways were cracked and broken. About 15 of the chapel’s glass panels were shattered, and several structural beams were on a precarious slant.
The chapel, affiliated with the Swedenborgian Church of North America, was built in 1951 in Portuguese Bend, an area notorious for ground movement. City officials attribute the current instability to the 1950s, when work crews were grading land for a road at the top of the Palos Verdes Peninsula and triggered a long-dormant landslide. It’s been in motion ever since, spanning 675 acres and threatening hundreds of homes, city officials said.
When the chapel closed in February, more than 175 scheduled weddings and special events were canceled. Naomi White’s wedding was among them.
“Getting married there was something I had my heart set on for a long time,” said White, 28, who grew up in the nearby community of San Pedro and had chosen a date in July. “There’s something about how the glass brings in light in such a gorgeous way. The chapel combines faith with nature, and being there is a spiritual experience.”
Some parts of the ground in the landslide area are moving more than nine inches a week, affecting an important highway as well as the chapel. The road is rapidly deteriorating, with new fissures and large cracks that slow traffic. City officials have allocated more than $14 million to install pumps that remove underground water, which contributes to the movement, and to repave broken roads.
“Everyone is feeling anxious and nervous,” Ara Mihranian, the city manager, told me. “It’s very important to be aggressive and do what we can immediately. For years we’ve been saying something imminent is going to happen.”
Although the ground is moving fairly quickly, residents have been told that a single cataclysmic landslide isn’t expected, Mihranian said.
But for Eva Albuja, who grew up on a street above Wayfarers and has lived in the area for more than four decades, it’s still unnerving to think that the landslide is creeping closer every day. The ceiling and walls of her house on the landslide’s southern edge are lined with cracks. Two neighbors have had their houses red-tagged as unsafe to occupy, and many more houses have structural damage.
“It’s been very hard,” Albuja told me, holding back tears. “ We don’t know what will happen.”

Does the “no limits” relationship have limits?
Russian President Vladimir Putin is embarking on his first foreign trip since his splashy inauguration to a fifth term in office, and his destination is no surprise: China.
The two-day state visit beginning Thursday is expected to be heavy on pomp and ceremony, with effusive toasts and carefully choreographed gestures of friendship and mutual respect.
But status matters, and Putin is clearly the junior partner to Chinese President Xi Jinping. As the Economist magazine put it after the visit was announced: “Vladimir Putin will meet his big brother in Beijing.”
Despite inherent lopsidedness in their dealings — China is Russia’s principal trade partner, while Beijing’s largest export market is the United States — Xi has gone out of his way to imbue the visit with a sense of historic significance.
The two leaders are expected to sign a joint declaration after their talks, and there will be a gala celebration marking 75 years of diplomatic ties between the two countries.

Chinese President Xi’s trip to Europe: ‘Charm offensive’ or canny bid to divide the West?
Touring Europe for the first time in five years, Chinese President Xi has sought to both woo and divide. Ukraine and trade are wedge issues for China.
May 9, 2024
Putin — known for sometimes staging haughty keep-them-waiting displays when other leaders make the trek to the Kremlin — has taken a notably deferential tone toward his host.
In a pre-trip interview with China’s official Xinhua news agency, he expressed admiration for elements of Chinese culture, including martial arts and philosophy.
“Our peoples are bound by a long and strong tradition of friendship and cooperation,” he told Xinhua .
Putin’s expressions of gratitude are well-warranted. Since Russia’s February 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine , Xi has propped up his Russian counterpart in a variety of crucial ways.
China has helped Putin weather wartime Western sanctions, extending a particular lifeline to Russia’s lucrative oil and gas industry. Over the last two-plus years, Russia’s energy exports to China have easily offset the rupture in what had been Moscow’s cozy prewar energy relationship with Europe.
In many ways, the strategic relationship serves both Beijing and Moscow — and represents, in the view of many analysts, two autocrats’ unified challenge to the West.
“China and Russia are forging a partnership increasingly reminiscent of a great power alliance,” military intelligence analyst Chels Michta wrote in a commentary this week for the Center for European Policy Analysis.
But while Xi and Putin share a disdain for a U.S.-led world order, their interests are not identical. And the Ukraine war is at times a complicating factor.
China does not provide Russia with weaponry. But the Biden administration has prodded Xi’s government over its sale to Russia of so-called dual-use items — components such as machine tools, microelectronics and rocket propellant, which have civilian and military uses.
Blinken, in a somber visit to Kyiv, reasserts U.S. support for Ukraine
Ukrainian president signals to U.S. secretary of State that the need is dire, but that the war against Russia is not lost.
May 14, 2024
That came up last month when U.S. Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken visited Beijing and chided China for “powering Russia’s brutal war of aggression against Ukraine.”
Washington has also said it will take a harder line against Chinese-based financial institutions and firms that help Moscow circumvent wartime restrictions, warning of secondary sanctions against them.
Even as China publicly professes neutrality on Ukraine, many observers believe Putin was emboldened in his war aims by a joint pact struck with Beijing days before the invasion, proclaiming a “no-limits” partnership.
In the course of the Ukraine war, however, some points of friction have emerged. China has been made uneasy by Putin’s occasional strident nuclear threats , the latest of which came this month when the Kremlin announced it would conduct exercises simulating the use of tactical — or battlefield — nuclear weapons near Ukraine.

Russia announces plans to hold drills near Ukraine simulating the use of battlefield nuclear weapons.
May 6, 2024
In a variety of international settings — most recently during a high-profile European tour last week — Xi has expressed hopes for peace in Ukraine, even as he has refused to condemn Russia’s ongoing attempt to batter its neighbor into submission.
Ukraine has been careful not to publicly denigrate China’s peace proposals — a 12-point plan unveiled more than a year ago, followed by additional “principles” set forth last month — but the government in Kyiv and its allies believe that if Beijing wanted to genuinely play the conciliator, it could use its influence to rein in Putin.
On the eve of the visit, Putin praised the Chinese proposals, which were tepidly received elsewhere, as “realistic and constructive.” The Russian leader also draws frequent parallels between his contention that Ukraine rightfully belongs to Russia and China’s claim to Taiwan .
Russia tries to breach Ukraine’s defenses in the Kharkiv region. Feint, or all-out assault?
Ukraine is trying to determine if Russia’s ground attack in Kharkiv is opening a new war front — or meant to divert overstretched Ukrainian troops?
May 10, 2024
During last week’s European tour, Xi joined France’s President Emmanuel Macron in calling for a “global truce” during the Summer Olympic Games in Paris — one that would theoretically apply in Ukraine, where the tempo of fighting has been intensifying .
Ukrainian military officials acknowledge that for the moment at least, Russia has battlefield momentum on its side , making new territorial seizures in Ukraine’s northeast and notching steady incremental gains on the eastern front lines.
Despite elaborate displays of Sino-Russian friendship, in some parts of the world the two see each other as rivals rather than partners.
Super spy or paper pusher? How Putin’s KGB years in East Germany helped shape him

Xi is well aware that Putin’s international isolation leaves him at a disadvantage, and in some venues, such as Eastern Europe, that gives China greater economic latitude.
“The full-scale invasion of Ukraine is accelerating the process of China edging out Russia from Central and Eastern Europe,” wrote analyst Dimitar Bechev of the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center after Xi’s visit last week to Hungary and Serbia.
Putin, he wrote, “has become toxic in a way that the Chinese leadership is not.”
