Insurance Insight
From Fernanda Bressan: REPLY
We had a roof leak that caused interior damage to our home approximately one year ago. Despite having an adjuster and an attorney working on our case, we are having an extremely difficult time getting our homeowners and windstorm insurance carriers to pay the claims we have filed. If you have any suggestions or advice on how to handle this very frustrating situation, I would love to hear from you. Thanks!

Reading APPtitude
 Earlier this week, Team JAB shared local educator, Erin Jones', M.S.Ed tips for helping your kids avoid the infamous summer brain drain. Our mission to help you get your kids classroom ready continues in this edition with suggestions for improving reading comprehension. Literature teacher at Rosarian Academy, Patrick Hansen, recommends the following apps for sharpening fluency, recall, reading speed, and critical thinking skills.
-
Rainbow Sentences focuses on sentence fluency. The who, what, where, when and why of each sentence are color-coded to emphasize word function.
- StoryBuilder provides an easy-to-use framework to help learners create and understand stories and basic narrative sequence.
- SentenceBuilder helps students compose grammatically correct sentences, which helps both reading and writing fluency.
For more educational apps that will keep your kids' brains active for the rest of the summer, click HERE. And if your kids have completed their summer reading and are bored with watching television and playing video games (a parent can dream right?) click HERE for the 2013 Big Summer Read List.
Happy reading and Happy JABBING!
