Next - generation
sequencing involves the application of glass micro-chip based methods and small -
volume liquid handling (microfluidics) to
sequence DNA more quickly and more cheaply than ever before, indeed 1000s times less costly than the technology used to
sequence the
first human genome just a few years ago.
9 • solve one - step problems involving multiplication and division, by calculating the answer using concrete objects, pictorial representations and arrays with the support of the teacher • recognise, find and name a half as 1 of 2 equal parts of an object, shape or quantity • recognise, find and name a quarter as 1 of 4 equal parts of an object, shape or quantity • Compare, describe and solve practical problems for: lengths and heights [for example, long / short, longer / shorter, tall / short, double / half]; mass or weight [for example, heavy / light, heavier than, lighter than]; capacity /
volume [for example, full / empty, more than, less than, half, half full, quarter]; time [for example, quicker, slower, earlier, later]; • measure and begin to record the following: lengths and height; mass / weight; capacity and
volume; time (hours, minutes, seconds) • recognise and know the value of different denominations of coins and notes •
sequence events in chronological order using language (for example, before and after, next,
first, today, yesterday, tomorrow, morning, afternoon and evening) • describe position direction and movement including whole half quarter and three quarter turns PLUS MANY MORE OBJECTIVES!
Also in 1913 a less violent event occurred in France with the publication of the
first volume of Marcel Proust's important novel
sequence À la recherche du temps perdu (1913 — 1927)(In Search of Lost Time).
