What are the Chicago city boundaries?

Chicago city borders are very irregular. The most definite border is the Eastern which is Lake Michigan. Not surprisingly, O'Hare International Airport is within the borders of Chicago. Although many think it is connected to the city by the Kennedy Expressway, it is actually connected by a small strip of land that runs along Foster Avenue. The strip was ceded to the City of Chicago by Rosemont in exchange for Lake Michigan water service, allowing the city to annex the O'Hare land.

By looking at the maps for the communities along the borders of the city, you can discern the actual border areas.

What is SQ3R?

Survey, Question, Read, Recall, and Review

SQ3R reading methodSQ3R is a reading strategy formed from its letters:

Survey! Question! Read! Recite! Review!

SQ3R will help you build a framework to understand your reading assignment. Before you read, Survey the chapter:

  • the title, headings, and subheadings
  • captions under pictures, charts, graphs or maps
  • review questions or teacher-made study guides
  • introductory and concluding paragraphs
  • summary
Question while you are surveying:
  • Turn the title, headings, and/or subheadings into questions
  • Read questions at the end of the chapters or after each subheading
  • Ask yourself,

    "What did my instructor say about this chapter or subject

    when it was assigned?"

  • Ask yourself,

    "What do I already know about this subject?"

    Note: If it is helpful to you, write out these questions for consideration.

    This variation is called SQW3R

When you begin to Read:
  • Look for answers to the questions you first raised
  • Answer questions at the beginning or end of chapters or study guides
  • Reread captions under pictures, graphs, etc.
  • Note all the underlined, italicized, bold printed words or phrases
  • Study graphic aids
  • Reduce your speed for difficult passages
  • Stop and reread parts which are not clear
  • Read only a section at a time and recite after each section
Recite after you've read a section:
  • Orally ask yourself questions about what you have just read, or summarize, in your own words, what you read
  • Take notes from the text but write the information in your own words
  • Underline or highlight important points you've just read
  • Reciting:

    The more senses you use the more likely you are to remember what you read Triple strength learning: Seeing, saying, hearing

    Quadruple strength learning: Seeing , saying , hearing, writing!!!

Review: an ongoing process

Day One

  • After you have read and recited the entire chapter,

    write questions in the margins for those points

    you have highlighted or underlined.

  • If you took notes while reciting,

    write questions for the notes you have taken

    in the left hand margins of your notebook.

  • Complete the form for a critical reading review

Day Two

  • Page through the text and/or your notebook to re-acquaint yourself

    with the important points.

  • Cover the right hand column of your text/note-book

    and orally ask yourself the questions in the left hand margins.

  • Orally recite or write the answers from memory.
  • Develop mnemonic devices for material which need to be memorized.

    Make flash cards for those questions which give you difficulty.

Days Three, Four and Five

  • Alternate between your flash cards and notes and test yourself

    (orally or in writing) on the questions you formulated.

  • Make additional flash cards if necessary.

Weekend

  • Using the text and notebook, make a Table of Contents - list all the topics and sub-topics you need to know from the chapter.
  • From the Table of Contents, make a Study Sheet/ Spatial Map.
  • Recite the information orally and in your own words as you put the Study Sheet/Map together.
  • As you have consolidated all the information you need for this chapter, periodically review the Sheet/Map so that at test time

    you will not have to cram.

What state did public schools start in?

If you are talking about one room school houses.... It was in the early 1700's

The first One Room School House looked like an Early Settler house. As time went on some buildings had gable roofs with straight lines. A number of influences gave them their characteristics. The brackets under the eaves are Italianate. The white trim which follows the eaves forms a pediment of a Greek Revival homes. The triangle over the windows are a carpenter's version of the Gothic Revival.

The gable roof is the triangular upper portion of a wall at the end of a pitched roof. A bracket is a support for a shelf or other weight attached to a wall. A pediment is in classical architecture. It is a low pitched triangular gable above a portico. A portico is a roofed space, open or partly closed, forming the entrance of a house like a porch roof. There are many styles including the Greek Revival.

The time period that this was popular was from the early 1700's thru the 1900's.

People had to live close to the school because the children had to walk to school. There was only one room for all the children. School was very important to early settlers; therefore it was one of the first things they built. The schools were started for religious reasons, mainly so that children could read from the Bible.

Where can you find information about Sally's Stage in Chicago?

Sally's Stage was located on the East side of Western Avenue about a half block south of Devon. It probably closed 20 years ago and the site may now be a Middle Eastern or Indian restaurant. It had a huge pipe organ. Accd to http://www.acorntheater.com/prod2011211111.htm, the organist was: "Highly accomplished theater organist, Don Springer, plays music from the 1920's - 40's including those sweet and happy toe-tapping melodies everyone enjoys. He is the former organist in residence at the Hinsdale Theater in Hinsdale IL and played the Barton Theater Pipe Organ for years as the senior organist at the unconventional and wildly popular Sally's Stage in Chicago, IL during the 1980's." Sally's was owned by a guy named Joe Bortz. He purchased the building that housed Sally's Ribs up on Western Ave. and turned it into Sally's Stage. Accd to some "a cathedral of convoluted bad taste bringing together roller skating singing waiters, a huge theatrical pipe organ and some of the most mediocre pan pizza ever tasted, all in one cavernous room." It also had a mechanical bull. Joe also owned and founded the Dr. Jazz Ice Cream parlors on Montrose and in Evanston.

Where can you find information on Wieland's Dairy in Chicago?

The Wieland Dairy and Ice Cream Factory, (in Chicago), was developed by my great grandparents, Jacob and Gottlieben (Gleich) Wieland. They came to the USA in 1889, bringing along their 7 sons,1 daughter, and Jacob's father. The Wieland Dairy was very successful, as was the Ice Cream Factory, where the "Good Humor" ice cream bar was developed. In the early 1930's the dairy was sold, for $8.5 million to "Borden", hence the name "Wieland/Borden Dairy" on all the bottles, for a period of time, (stipulated in the sale), later becoming just "Borden". The money was divided equally between the the sons and daughter. Two of the sons were against the sale, so they started CJ Wieland & Company Dairy. Not knowing whether this is a genealogy question or a question about the dairy itself, I welcome all to contact me. My father was eventuallya partner in the C.J Wieland Dairy and the chief chemist developing the formulas for the products. The Dairy was eventually sold to Hawthorn Melody in 1951. I would LOVE any photos anyone has of the dairy such as someone said they had. C.J. Wieland had an ice cream parlor and was regarded as the premium brand in Chicago. The aidry products were sold both in many markets and by home delivery.

What is the theme of Carl Sandburg's poems?

Carl Sandburg's poem "Chicago" defends the city against dark accusations of prostitution, poverty, and exploitation of the working class. In the end, he suggests that such accusations plague any large city, and he asserts that "Under the terrible burden of destiny," Chicago laughs "as a young man laughs, laughing even as an ignorant fighter laughs who has never lost a battle, bragging and laughing that under his wrist is the pulse, and under his ribs the heart of the people." Thus, he asserts that the spirit of the city not only survives, but thrives in spite of its dark underbelly, and perhaps even has more character because of it.

When did Carl Sandburg write poem Man with the five broken fingers?

I am extremely frustrated. Although it has been at least 43 years since I heard the poem "The Man With The Five Broken Fingers" by Carl Sandburg I haven't been able to find it anywhere. I was read the poem by my literature teacher when I was in the 8th grade. I believe the poem had to do with a man's treatment in a prison war camp during World War 2 ---- [Edit] The Poem first appeared on August 23, 1942. It was probably written earlier that year.
