What is Peat?

One student asked me the meaning of "peat"as we were about to start a listening activity. As I answered,  I was going  back to my first time in Ireland driving from Dublin to Galway where lots of peat bogs could/can be seen. Maybe that was the first time I learnt about the word and the uses of  it. Have a look at the video to learn about what was the primary source of fuel for heating and cooking for many years in Ireland.

The signs of relationship abuse and how to help

 

Violence against women is a human rights violation that takes place every single day around the world. Globally, one in three women experiences physical or sexual violence, mostly by an intimate partner. While domestic violence and abuse are sometimes hidden, if we know the signs of an abusive relationship, we may be able to recognize it better and seek or offer help.

What are some common signs of abuse?
