How does President Roosevelt respond to Pearl Harbor being bombed?

Franklin D. Roosevelt response was calm, in opposite difference of Churchill's speech.

According to Eleanor Roosevelt -his wife- President Roosevelt was worried about Germany declaring war against the U.S. During the day of the bombing, the President consulted his military generals and spoke to Winston Churchill.

After that, he dictated to his secretary, the speech he was going to deliver in Congress to address the nation the next day. Before going to bed, he had a meeting with his Cabinet members who informed him about the critical situation in Hawaii.

These elements show a measured President Roosevelt, a man that despite the horrible situation, knew how to behave and show composure under heavy pressure. Not everybody understood his reaction. Many expected  Churchill's kind of reaction with the emotion he imprinted in his "Blood, Toil, Tears and Sweat" speech.

This kind of calm response contrast -more than contradicts- Churchill speech, in the emotion, and passion the Prime Minister showed in front of the Parliament, meanwhile, Roosevelt addressed Congress in a somber way.

Children who read tend to do better at school and professionally. The rise in technology means increased demands for higher literacy and consequences are grievous for those who fall short, according to "Preventing Reading Difficulties in Young Children."

Critical Thinking
The growth of digital media as a source of information has reduced the ability of children to critically evaluate the information they are exposed to, says Professor Patricia Greenfield, director of the Children's Digital Media Center at UCLA. Critical thinking skills are crucial in helping students achieve more than a cursory understanding of any topic and helps them form their own opinions. Reading requires a person to think and process information in a way that watching television may not. The more you read, the deeper your understanding becomes of what you are reading and its application. Greenfield tells parents to encourage their children to read and should read to their children. Developing writing skills can help you strengthen your ability to make reasoned arguments on a variety of subjects, which is useful in school and on the job.

Improved Communication Skills
Improving your reading and writing skills also goes hand in hand with developing your communication skills. The more you read and write, the more you broaden your vocabulary and are able to articulate concepts accurately and more effectively to others. Increasing your ability to communicate also helps make you a better worker or student.

More Opportunities
Studies show that people with advanced reading and writing skills have more opportunities in school and professionally than those who do not develop these skills. Children who are avid readers will often find school more appealing. Literary readers are more likely "to engage in positive civic and individual activities--such as volunteering, attending sports or cultural events, and exercising" than non-readers, according to the NEA study.
