AMMAN  Kenny Golladay Youth Jersey , May 10 (Xinhua) -- The Queen Rania Foundation and Google.org announced Wednesday that they have joined forces to create an online learning platform for Arabic open educational resources.

The online platform will target students from kindergarten to 12th grade and their teachers across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, said the foundation in a statement a copy of which was obtained by Xinhua.

The initiative comes at a crucial time to ensure millions of children across the region have access to better education.

Presently, an estimated 13 million children in the MENA region, or 40 percent of school aged children, are missing out on an education due to conflict and displacement.

Additionally, the refugee crisis has strained existing educational systems in host countries similar to Jordan and Lebanon which are currently hosting vast numbers of refugee students, thereby compromising the quality of education offered to both local and refugee children.

Speaking of the goals of the platform  Teez Tabor Youth Jersey , Queen Rania said, "I am confident that, with the support of Google.org, we can bring about more equitable access to high-quality education, wherever students live, and break down the learning barriers facing so many children in the Arab world."

Vice President of Google.org, Jacquelline Fuller  Jarrad Davis Youth Jersey , said "We're proud to support the ambitious work of the Queen Rania Foundation as part of our ongoing commitment to education programs that harness the power of technology in a way that helps all children have the opportunity to learn and grow."

The first phase of implementation will focus on the mathematics curriculum for all grades, starting with older age groups, and will later expand to include other subjects.

In order to ensure equitable access to its services, the platform will eventually include offline access and support, building upon the work that the Queen Rania Foundation and Google.org have already accomplished.

In the run-up to Christmas  Kerryon Johnson Youth Jersey , we may not know it, but we?re already preparing ourselves for some stress. We?re getting together our ideas of what we want to do on the day, who we?re inviting, where we?re going, and what gifts we are buying. In all this, we?re developing expectations. Expectations of how the day will pan out, and in doing so  Frank Ragnow Youth Jersey , it?s often likely that some of those expectations won?t be met. And in all this, we want our children to have a great Christmas too. So how do we have a great Christmas without all the stresses that put a strain on our relationships, not only with our kids, but with our guests too?

. Patience and understanding. Not really something that springs to mind when we think about all our relatives coming over. There are always the usual infuriating comments made by at least one relation, maybe about our children?s behaviour or what they?re eating. When you react to something, look at what?s behind your reaction, the meaning you are giving it. For example  Graham Glasgow Womens Jersey , if a comment were directed at you and your child like ?kids these days are just not grateful for all these expensive toys?, how would you be feeling? Would you be cross, or guilty? And why? It comes down to the meaning you have given it ? you could make it mean ?I?m not a good mother?, or ?I?ve brought my child up to be selfish?. If this is so, then you can choose to give it a totally new meaning, maybe, ?that?s just the way he is?  A'Shawn Robinson Womens Jersey , ?it doesn?t mean anything?, or you can understand that, especially with elderly people, they are still living in their youth and do not understand modern values.

. Even though you are busy preparing lunch and serving your guests? needs, be aware that your kids still need your attention and see you as their number one role model ? do not neglect them. Remain patient with them, and answer their requests.

. At strategic times, get a relative to look after them ? this is often appreciated by both parties. Relatives like to think they are wanted and are being useful.

. Make Rule Number One - No kids in the kitchen before lunch! This means you can get on with preparations without stressful interruptions. It will also mean you are not rejecting them by shooing them away whenever they come in and get under your feet. They are more likely to respond positively to the rule rather than being told to go away.

. If you don?t traditionally open your presents until after lunch  Michael Roberts Womens Jersey , give the kids a gift to open in the morning to keep them occupied.

. Have a great all-round family game for kids and guests to get on with while you are making the preparations for lunch.

. If you?ve got creative kids who want to help, give them a task in the kitchen that they can get on with, like preparing vegetables. Remember, let go of any ideas of perfection ? most guests understand that some things kids do for us won?t be perfect ? the fact that they prepared it will be appreciated.

. After Christmas day, when all the guests have gone home, it does seem to be a bit bleak, with the excitement over and more days in the school break to get through. Be organised with ideas of activities so that no-one is bored.

. After all the over-eating  Jalen Reeves-Maybin Womens Jersey , a feeling of lethargy can kick in. Kids can be hyperactive, and behaviour wilder than normal, causing family upsets. Get them outside, doing active pursuits ? walking, riding bikes, scooters and .  Cheap Jerseys    Cheap Jerseys Wholesale    Cheap Replica Jerseys    Cheap Jerseys China Free Shipping    Cheap Authentic NFL Jerseys    Cheap NFL Nike Jerseys    Wholesale Jerseys    Wholesale Jerseys From China    Wholesale Jerseys From China    Wholesale New Sports Jerseys
