Cabin Formative

Log cabins form part of Lancashire attraction

Log cabins are part of a visitor attraction located in Lancashire that is based on a country and western theme, it has been pointed out.

Writing in the Guardian, Irma Heger noted she recently took her two daughters to the area to see what it has to offer.

Established 25 years ago when the line dancing craze was at its height, the facility is a family-run "honky-tonk", which is the phrase used to describe an American-style drinking and dancing den.

As well as the log cabins, there are wagon wheels, bulls' head trophies, paintings of country singers such as Kenny Rogers and Willie Nelson and plenty of American flags on display.

Indeed, Ms Heger described the place as a "veritable wild west wonderland".

Commenting on one of the things she witnessed while staying at the attraction, she added: "It's not every day you see a Native American, complete with feather headdress, step out of a giant Chevrolet 4x4 in Lancashire.

"The car in question bears his picture, larger-than-life and rising from flames painted on the bonnet. His moccasins silently carry him past a group of cowboys into a log-clad saloon."

Those staying in log cabins or other accommodation in the area can also see music in the theme of the American west. Indeed, country bands perform every weekend and, according to Ms Heger, they attract aficionados from all around the UK.

Also, on Sundays, the visitor hub is open during the day and is free.

Meanwhile, for nature lovers, there are plenty of walks in the surrounding area and the attraction is surrounded by trees.

The centre and others like it may be particularly popular among Britons at present as more people look to make trips and take holidays in the UK rather than going abroad as a means of saving money.

The Cabin $8.99 In these mordant, elegant, and often disquieting essays, the internationally acclaimed dramatist creates a sort of autobiography by strobe light, one that is both mysterious and starkly revealing. The pieces in The Cabin are about places and things: the suburbs of Chicago, where as a boy David Mamet helplessly watched his stepfather terrorize his sister; New York City, where as a young man he had to eat his way through a mountain of fried matzoh to earn a night of sexual bliss. They are about guns, campaign buttons, and a cabin in the Vermont woods that stinks of wood smoke and kerosene -- and about their associations of pleasure, menace, and regret. The resulting volume may be compared to the plays that have made Mamet famous: it is finely crafted and deftly timed, and its precise language carries an enormous weight of feeling.

Formative Assessment and All That Jazz $146.58 The findings of this research essentially indicate that formative assessment strategies, when engaged regularly and properly, are effective in informing teaching practice. Furthermore, the findings suggest that teachers who regularly collaborate about their practice are more effective and more likely to attempt new formative assessment strategies in their practice. This collaboration, within a supportive professional learning community, affords the practice of a more guaranteed and viable curricular experience for students as well as reflective and improved pedagogy among the teachers engaged in the study. Similar to the practice of jazz musicians who collaborate in an environment where mentoring of younger musicians helps to nurture improvisational skills, we attempted to use collaboration as a vehicle to nurture our practice of formative assessment and our pedagogy as teachers.
