Abstract Sense of numerical is the important part of mathematics which focuses on the numerical and aims to develop public awareness of the number and processes it, and realize the size of the number and compared numbers with another one, and flexibility in the development of multiple strategies for mental calculation and estimate approximate, and the selection mark numerical characteristics, all that appears in the student performance through the active environment and the structure of sports are interlinked between the calculation methods different, as well as communication between school mathematics and life situations, in recent years the concept of sense of numerical has increased interest in the past (1989, 1991, 1996) announced that the National Committee for Teachers of Mathematics America "NCTM" for the adoption of common numerical theme in the formal curriculum and evaluation standards in the Mathematical Standards book under the following headings: Standard No. 5: The relationship between numbers and the sense of numerical and standard No. 7: The account and appreciation It was found that the development of numerical sense in children comes through social Interaction with adults and other children during play activities and interactions that occur in the formal school. From here came the idea of the study in the development of numerical sense skills to the children first grade through the use of educational games. The study attempted to answer the following questions: 1 - What is the impact of the use of educational games in the development of skill and understanding of the meaning and the size of the numbers for the children of first primary grade? 2 - What is the impact the use of educational games in the development of skill of understanding the meaning and impact calculations for the children of first primary grade? 3. What is the impact the use of educational games in the development of skill to realize the Impact calculations and use them in life situations for the children of first primary grade? To answer the study questions and the achievement of its objectives was to prepare the following tools: 1 - Teacher's Guide 2- Test of the skill of understanding the meaning and the size of numbers. 3- Test of the skill of understanding the meaning and impact calculations 4-Test of the skill to realize the impact calculations and use them in life situations After Tools of the study was Setup. were followed the following steps: • Choose a Study Group. Students from first primary grade from the university elementary school, in the academic year 2011/2012 the first semester, and divided into two groups, the first control and second experimental who has studied the use of educational games. • Teaching for the two study groups. • Application of the dimensional numerical tests skills common to the two study groups Monitoring and analyzing the results and interpretation. The study found an improvement in the understanding of students of the experimental group that used educational games are clearly more of the students of the control group and in the meaning and the size of the numbers and understand the meaning and impact calculations, and more clearly the results of the test the skill to realize the impact calculations and use them in life situations, they came results statistically significant in favor of the experimental group in the application dimensional in the three tests (meaning the size of the numbers and understand the meaning and impact calculations, situations) and the total test overall representative of the common numerical sense skills appropriate for students in first primary grade. Also it shown the high size of the impact when calculated for the three tests and the total of the test as a whole, but it was the most Macon to the test of the meaning and the size of the numbers and understand then to skill to realize the impact calculations and use them in life situations test, finally, to the test of the meaning and impact calculations on numbers. .

The research aims at investigating the status que of children's teaching and learning strategies in kindergartens to improve their future qualifications. It also attempts to provide recommendations and suggestions to the requirements of improving children's future qualifications. The researcher follows a descriptive and analytical methodology to investigate and analyze data. She uses the following instruments: content analysis, questionnaire, parents' surveys. These instruments are deployed to achieve the research objectives; to check teachers' commitment to teaching and learning strategies; to improve the performance of kindergartens, and to provide children future preparation requirements. Furthermore, both authenticity and consistency are validated through the genuineness of content. Reanalysis is also conducted by researchers and a questionnaire committee of kindergarten specialists. The researcher uses the arithmetic mean to calculate the percentage of questionnaire responses and parents' surveys. Then she orders the results descending. The results show that there is a rise in the percentage of those who answered with a "yes," where it ranges between 98% and 74%. These percentages point out that most teachers carry out such methods used in kindergartens as games, stories, synthetic models and practices that develop children's patriotic, national, social, cultural and ethical responsibilities. Parents' survey also demonstrates the fulfillment of integration between kindergartens and homes to better the children's growth and care. This comes as a result of kindergartens' application of qualitative approach; best seen in the recruiting of qualified teachers on the one hand, and well implemented teaching and learning strategies on the other hand. Most notable recommendations and suggestions are: providing kindergartens with a variety of modern means such as up-to-date laboratories for practical specialties, workshops and playgrounds so that children may be able to sort out their interests and connect them with their future life. Moreover, forums and lectures are to be held for kindergarten teachers using visual and audible presentations to help them recognize modern teaching and learning methods. Besides, recruitinent criteria are to be improved so as to include job enthusiasm and children's interactive behavior. Also, the need to set measures to assess children's skills after each activity to assure future interests and needs. Again, family participation in kindergarten activities is essential to assure children's growth in all fields. Finally, the researcher suggests to conduct a research that tackles teachers' satisfaction with children's teaching and learning strategies in kindergartens. .

ABSTRACT We have defined the non-abelian pure gauge theory SU (2) on a torus. Fourier modes are discrete throughout this definition. For enough small size, we have treated the non-glue ball modes as a perturbation of zero modes. Infra-red singularity is not appearing throughout the discrete momentums. The temperature depending contributions of the effective potential of the non-abelian glue ball gauge fields are continuously calculated by us, for the first time on an asymmetric torus, till the fourth grade of gauge fields. So, L is the length of the torus in space direction and is the length in time direction (the inverse of temperature). The Phase transition is indicated by the coefficient instead of the coupling constant g Key words: - Real time in non-equilibrium - Phase transition to quark-gluon-plasma - Non-equilibrium in the quantum field theory .

Abstract The present research-paper deals with isolation in Emily Dickinson's poetry, which is a reflection of the actual isolation that marked her life. Whether this isolation is due to her being single (spinster), or a deliberate choice to protect herself from the outside world, it is intended as a way to escape the social obligations and take the privilege that permits her time and space to write, to liberate her mind and creativity, and to achieve the supremacy of the individual soul. Known for her originality, Emily Dickinson is a highly regarded 19th century poet although she gained much popularity after her death. Having lived a «hermetic life'>> she remains an enigma which befits a person who produced such great works. Her choice of isolating herself from the rest of the world made her quite singular. It is an aspect that most critics and scholars take into consideration when analyzing her work. There are traces of isolation that can be noted in her poems. The effects of having been isolated from the world are likewise evident that contributed to her being one of America's well-admired poets who made a mark in American literature. Those traces may be found along with her defiance to conform to the norms and dictates of society. Moreover, isolation gave her the freedom to write uninhibitedly; this made her work rather interesting, driving scholars and readers to try to dig deeper into the psyche of this enigmatic poet. .
