Keeping Up With The Joneses - What does it mean in English

Keeping Up With The Joneses - What does it mean in English Keeping up with the Joneses is an  English idiomatic expression  that  regularly appears  in conversation and also, though less frequently, in written EnglishA few weeks ago, one of my students asked me the meaning of the expression keeping up with the Joneses. Is this an idiom you have used before? Do you know what it means?Lets look at this now.What does Keeping Up with the Joneses mean?In this saying, the surname Jones alludes to any, generic, neighbor.To keep up with the Joneses refers to competitiveness between people. It means not falling behind your neighbor in terms of their material possessions and, in order to achieve this, buying whatever your neighbor has and doing what they do.For example, if your neighbor buys a new car, then to ‘keep up with them,’ you too will also need a new car. If they paint their house, then you should too, etc. The list is endless and refers to every possession, activity (like going on holidays) etc. It can be an unhealthy obsession.Of course , the use of the surname Jones normally refers to neighbors but it can also mean any acquaintance, colleague, friend etc.A Quick Exercise to Practice this IdiomLets look at an artistic representation of the concept of keeping up with Joneses:What does the cartoon depict?What problems do you think people who try constantly to keep up with the Joneses would have?Do you think that you, in any aspect of your live, could be said to keep up with the Joneses?  Where does the expression come from?Keeping up with the Joneses is said to have originated in a popular cartoon strip run in an American newspaper at the start of the 20th century by cartoonist Arthur Momand. Interestingly while the expression was the title of the cartoon, the Joneses were never actually featured in it. Instead the cartoon focused on the McGinis family who lived next door to the Joneses and who looked to them constantly as a source of reference as to what they should have and the social status they should be striving to attain.Want to keep learning?

The Importance of Homework - ALOHA Mind Math

The Importance of Homework Much as we, ourselves may feel like moaning and groaning about it, as parents it is our responsibility to make our child understand why homework is important. Manychildren find it difficult to comprehend why they need to spend additional time at home doing schoolwork, after spending so many hoursdoing the same in school. Here are some of the benefits of homework to help us convey it better to our children. Update parents: Home work assignments serve as the easiest way for parents to get to know what children are doing at school. If not for homework, the only way for parents to remain updated would be through periodic meetings with the teachers, which is not really an easy practice to achieve. Practice makes perfect: When children practice the same math problem multiple times, it helps them understand the concepts better. Sometimes performing the same calculation in a relatively quieter environment helps to approach it more easily. Also in cases where parents may help with homework, they might give additional tips and tricks for tackling something that the child might find difficult otherwise. Improves organizational skills: Scheduling when to do homework and even remembering to bring back the required books, are all small skills that the child picks up and that will help him or her in improving their organizational skills, as they grow older. Parents can also help by looking for ways in which we can make homework less of a chore, and work it into our daily schedule better. It should definitely not be used as a threat, or for holding back a treat, as this would make the child associate negativity with homework. Teaches responsibility: As children grow up, they will start taking responsibility for their own homework, and you may just need to have a check to know what their schoolwork is all about. They will be answerable for non-completion or erroneous work, and this will also help them in being more responsible for their schoolwork and other activities. Our Math and English classes at Aloha USA also use homework as an integral part of teaching your child. Please see our website for more details:http://www.aloha-usa.com.

Wanting To Make A Difference In The World, This Young Student Has Her Sights Set On Politics

Wanting To Make A Difference In The World, This Young Student Has Her Sights Set On Politics Wanting To Make A Difference In The World, This Young Student Has Her Sights Set On Politics Ava, 12, Level I Math, Reading Program Completer Ava started her Kumon journey just over two years ago at the age of 10, and in that time has already successfully completed the Kumon Reading Program. Being in the 7th grade, Ava can say she has already analyzed the works of Shakespeare. “I enjoyed the excerpts in the reading program so much that I ended up borrowing the books to read in my spare time, such as, Pride and Prejudice, The Hobbit, and The Story of My Life,” said Ava. “I also enjoyed interpreting Shakespeare because it’s like a puzzle that’s just waiting for me to solve.” Now, she is determined to complete the Kumon Math Program. She’s already studying above her grade level, but she knows that with a little perseverance, she can complete the entire programâ€"which ends in calculus. Ava thanks Kumon for being able to grasp math concepts with ease in school. As a lifelong resident of Hawaii, it’s no surprise Ava loves taking breaks at the beach from her busy school schedule. She has even developed a sense of wanderlust at a young age with a passion for traveling and discovering new places. After five years of perfecting the art of hula dancing, Ava is proud to say that her hula dance group was selected to perform at the recent 2019 Rose Bowl Parade, and will be the youngest member of her group to perform! Wanting to make a difference in the world, she sees a future in politics or activism, so she can be the voice of people who want to be heard. Ava’s perseverance and determination was recognized by having been one of 55 students selected to attend the 2018 Kumon Student Conference in Calgary, Canada. We had the opportunity to speak to Ava about her Kumon journey thus far. What’s the most beneficial thing you’ve learned in Kumon thus far? Patience is the most beneficial thing I’ve learned because it helps me in and out of the classroom. For example, I will not always understand the formula, but I won’t give up on it right away. I will take a break and ask the teacher for help. Patience also helps me with hula dancing because I may not always get the move down, so I will take a breath and ask my friend for help and try it again. If you could sum up your Kumon experience in one word, what would it be? Perseverance. There were many times when I felt like giving up, but I told myself that I would not give up so easily and I would try again. Perseverance got me to where I am nowâ€"completing the Kumon Reading Program, and working on Level I in the Kumon Math Program. How has Kumon helped you outside of the classroom? I tend to be a sore loser at times, and Kumon has taught me to persevere and keep my frustration at bay. For example, when I lose a game, I don’t get mad and give up. I remain positive and try again, just like in Kumon when I am struggling with a concept. What keeps you motivated in Kumon? The thought that Kumon will help me through challenges in life, like my academics, motivates me because I know that Kumon helps many kids get past those tests to be accepted into college. I really want to attend college and study either business or politics, which requires sharp reading and math skills. I know it will help me for my future, and I will never stop giving it my all. What did it mean to you attending the Student Conference? It allowed me to meet other kids who also enjoy Kumon. Most of my friends don’t understand why I do Kumon or believe me when I say I do it for fun and to be smarter. I met so many people who like Kumon, and even like Harry Potter. It was fun talking about our Kumon experiences and our favorite Harry Potter characters. What advice do you have for other Kumon Students? Kumon takes a lot of work and patience. Even though you might feel like you will never finish your worksheet, remember that you’re working to be a smarter student, don’t let the worksheets stop you!
