![]() ![]() ![]() In photography, aperture refers to the opening of a lens’s diaphragm which controls the amount of light allowed into the camera. Know this – The wider the aperture, the more blurred the background. Here are some of the biggest factors that influence bokeh in photography: Aperture Size Factors that Influence the Bokeh Effect in Photography You can see that as an object becomes increasingly out of focus, it becomes so blurry that it eventually just looks like a dot. When the lights are in focus they are rendered as dots of light, you can see as they gradually shift more and more out of focus, the lights become increasingly larger and softer. You can see in this next image how the lights are in focus on the left and shift to out of focus on the right. It can be described as ‘how out of focus areas of the image are rendered’ – we’ll explore how the direction of the light effects how out of focus areas are rendered later in the article. I’m using lights as the example because they illustrate what is happening best. However, once you understand how the aperture affects both the background blur and the exposure, you’ll crack this technique in no time.īokeh what is it? Here are some examples This degree of separation is achieved by transforming unnecessary details in the background into a mix of soft shapes and uniform colours.įor beginners, shooting bokeh photography can seem confusing because it involves the aperture, which in my teaching experience, students struggle with the most. The bokeh effect helps draw attention to the most important parts of the photograph by isolating it against a blurred background. If used correctly, this stylistic technique can produce stunning portraits, product shots and even landscapes. Probably because I know how to do it and that’s enough, getting into deep conversations or one lens vs another doesn’t interest me in the slightest. But, it is worth noting, I’ve never actually been in a conversation with another human being about Bokeh. If you say Bo Ke then people will know what you’re on about. Seriously though I’ve heard it pronounced, Bor Ka, and like Okay but with a B in front Bokay. ![]() Derived from the Japanese word boke (ボケ), which literally means “haze” or “blur,” the bokeh effect is used to create images wherein a subject is placed against a blurred background or foreground. ![]()

Yes, theme parks could do more to warn their visitors of the danger of high G attractions. On Mission: Space, the peak G force is much lower than on Rock n' Roller Coaster, but it is sustained for a much longer period of time. Such preexisting medical conditions led to the death of two riders in the past year on Disney World's Mission: Space, another high G force ride. Put someone with a congenital defect, or even a bad case of high blood pressure, on a high G force ride and aneurysms and stroke can result. High G forces and circulatory problems provide a potentially fatal mix. Authorities have yet to determine the cause of death, but in 2000 the ride was the scene of a non-fatal incident where a rider suffered bleeding in the brain. Witness Rock n' Roller Coaster at the Disney-MGM Studios theme park in Walt Disney World, where yesterday a 12-year-old boy died. With twists, turns and sharp acceleration, even a relatively low speed ride can exert force on the body three, four and even five times the force of gravity. Not height, not speed, not length, but the pressure exerted on one's body. ![]() But over the past decade, theme park thrills have added a fourth dimension. Traditionally, thrill ride fans measured the intensity of their favorite rides three ways: tallest, fastest, longest. Robert Niles The end of the high G force thrill ride?

The Young Child and Mathematics by Juanita V. In the meantime, I highly recommend reading up on teaching math in the early childhood grades! Pretty much the only reading I EVER do is professional reading because I’m just a nerd like that! So, I’ve got a few fantastic recommendations for you! Number Pockets: Organization and Record Keeping ![]() I’m putting together a series of blog posts to make this a little easier for you! They will take your through how to build a foundation in pre-k and how to use my Number Pockets system to help your kinders and firsties fully develop the concept of decomposing numbers! Just use the links below to read through the entire series! (Links will become live as posts are added! But for now, you can see what’s coming!)ĭecomposing Numbers: Building the Foundation in Pre-K ![]() Ultimately, YOU are the expert on your kiddos! And YOU will need to decide when they are ready for the next level of learning! It’s a definite progression, and the grade level suggestions are just that… suggestions. And in first grade, we transition into written addition and subtraction facts. Lots and LOTS of manipulatives! Some of my absolute favorites are Unifix cubes, counting bears, two-sided counters, and ALL the mini-erasers from Target! (I may have a slight obsession with these!) In kinder, we start putting a little more structure to it by adding in written representations of the number combinations. We lay the foundation in preschool and pre-k with manipulatives. So, to teach decomposing numbers, we need to give our kiddos as many different opportunities as possible to play with these different combinations of numbers. But when we’re teaching flexible skills, we have to teach them in flexible ways. You model it, teach it, and have your kiddos practice it until they get it. The counting sequence is always the same. Numbers are always written the same way, and you model it, teach it, and have your kiddos practice it the same way over and over until they get. Skills that are conceptual in nature are only developed through experiences… and a LOT of them! In other words, it’s not a simple procedure you can teach like when you teach how to write a number or how to count. The best way to teach your kiddos to decompose numbers is to give them as many experiences with it as possible. We go straight from counting to adding and subtracting without giving our kiddos time to play with and develop the concept of decomposing. They need to And that’s where we mess up. And our youngest learners need to have a firm grasp on this long before we ever expect them to write an addition sentence or memorize a subtraction fact. For example 6 can be broken down into different pairs of numbers: 0 & 6, 1 & 5, 2 & 4, and 3 & 3. ![]() To put it simply: bigger numbers are combinations of smaller numbers, and our kiddos need to be able break them down and put them together. They need to understand the concept of decomposing numbers, and they need to be able to apply that understanding in different situations and different ways so that they have flexibility with their number sense. ![]() Decomposing numbers is something our kiddos need to be able to do with automaticity at a conceptual level. It is also critical to kiddos being successful later with concepts like place value, multiplication, division, area, and higher level problem solving. It provides kiddos with the foundation they need to understand addition, subtraction, and how they relate to each other. It is based on part-part-whole relationships, and it is a critical piece in developing number sense. It depends on the conceptual understanding that any number can be represented in parts. When a second grader is struggling with place value, a third grader is struggling with multiplication, or a fourth grader is struggling with finding area, there is one common factor that was probably missed during the early years: decomposing numbers.ĭecomposing numbers is the ability to break a number into smaller parts. But then, years down the road, the very same kids who mastered all of those basic skills in pre-k, kinder, and 1st grade are now struggling in math and no one understands why. And depending on the age you teach, addition and subtraction are probably on that list as well. We know that we need to teach things like colors, shapes, numbers, counting, sorting, patterning, and graphing. In the world of early childhood math, there are some things most of us know. ![]() ![]() ![]() You do not need to request a separate license.)

The tutorials are pretty good but lack a few important bits of information that are available in the manual, which is clearly and informatively written. The graphics and aesthetics are very nice for a wargame, and the UI is highly functional and informative. The game does a good job of being accessible without being simplistic. There's enough text and flavor to put me in the game, but not the paralyzing walls of text about every unit as in WitE. Often one scenario will directly proceed from the previous scenario your units and some of your accomplishments on the field carry over from one scenario to the next, but your exact position on the map does not. The scenarios seem well-designed with a fairly smooth ramp-up in difficulty (at least on the "normal" difficulty level that I'm playing on). The scale of the battles is just right for an entry into wargaming, with you controlling division-level troops through focused scenarios linked together into a somewhat dynamic campaign. You can buy the game on the Steam portal or on the official website.Unity of Command II is the first fairly serious wargame I could really get into. Unity of Command download for free on PC, it will not work, unfortunately. Higher level means more options on the battlefield. Try not to sacrifice units in vain, the level of which may soon be increased. Consider meteorological conditions when preparing for offensive or defensive actions.Īs you gain experience, your warriors become stronger and may level up over time. The area in which a unit can move and attack will be highlighted in yellow after you select a unit on the map.Īrtillery and aviation work worse in fog and cloudy weather. During heavy rains, heavy equipment becomes very vulnerable due to reduced maneuverability. The weather also has a great influence on the outcome of the battle. In these cases, try to concentrate as many units as possible in the battle zone. But there are situations when a frontal assault cannot be avoided. ![]() Look at the map and think, maybe there is a direction in which it will be easier to move forward. But you should not immediately throw all your forces at the city around which the enemy has large forces. The more part of the map you control, the easier it will be to create new units, since controlled cities provide additional resources. An army that has the best supply fights much more efficiently. Logistics in the game is given special attention. For the delivery of military cargo, on the contrary, it is preferable to have roads. ![]() Some troops get a bonus when they are on high ground or vice versa when they are hidden by the forest. Try to use the terrain and vegetation to improve your units' chances of winning. There is no hurry, you can think over each move before moving your armies across the playing field. Moves are made alternately with the opponent. The game is addictive easy to get carried away and lose track of time. These are the main tasks to deal with when you play Unity of Command.Īlthough at first glance the game may seem simple, make no mistake, this is a great strategy game that will not get bored.
