Problem: Article: Don’t bring up your idea first thing in the morning or as soon as your mom get home from work. This will make her less likely to hear you out, since she won’t be ready to talk. Instead, find a calm time during the day to bring up the subject. Politely ask her if she has some time to talk to you before stating your case. Approach your mother and say, “Hey mom! Do you have a few minutes to talk about having a sleepover? I really want to have one here and I have a few ideas.” Your mom probably had sleepovers when she was your age. If you can get her to think back to her childhood, she may be more likely to give you what you want. Ask her questions about what she did at sleepovers when she was your age, and if she has any experience hosting sleepovers when she was a  kid. Use your indoor voice and take a breath between each sentence to collect your thoughts. Staying calm while you’re presenting will show your mother that you’ve thought through your ideas and care deeply about having a sleepover. If your mom is initially against it, don’t worry. If you can show her that you’re capable of having an adult conversation, she may change her mind. Don’t throw a temper tantrum if the conversation doesn’t go exactly the way you want it to. If your mother initially says no, wait a couple of days and then try asking her again. She may change their mind over the course of a few days, and asking her again may show them that you’re serious.  If you lose your cool, you’re only going to reinforce your mother’s belief that you aren’t old enough to have a sleepover. If you feel yourself getting really angry, slow your breathing down and count from 1-10 in your head to reset yourself. Even if you didn’t get what you want, thank your mom for hearing you out. If your mother wants to negotiate, be open to modifying your plans. A sleepover at your house will impact your parent too, since they’ll have to prepare their home, coordinate with other parents, and monitor you and your friends, so be willing to accept that they may change your plans. Say, “Thank you for taking the time to listen to me” at the end of your presentation.
Summary: Talk to your mother when she’s in a good mood and not busy. Ask your mom about sleepovers that she had growing up. Share your ideas in a calm manner and keep your voice down. Keep cool if you don’t get your way. Show gratitude and be willing to compromise.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Scan through the piece of music and mark (if you can) any key changes, tempo changes, or change in dynamics. When you first begin sight-reading, you may attempt to count every beat, divide every rhythm, and tap maniacally to the beat. Relax! Every piece of music has hundreds of notes and trying to count and identify every single one can be exhausting and impossible. Instead, divide the piece into bigger chunks of music and try to read it that way.  Cut each measure into 2 parts, and note where the downbeats are. This is a method of interpreting the music in a more relaxed, musical way. Now you can look at 2 beats, or even an entire measure, at a time. This is a lot less chaotic than attempting to count each and every beat. While each piece of music you encounter is beautifully unique, there are certainly repeating patterns that you'll continuously encounter. Purchase sight reading practice materials. Children get better at reading words by reading multiple books. Musicians get better at reading music by sight reading multiple pieces. Try going online to sites like Piano Marvel to gain access to sight reading exercises and music pieces you can practice reading.  Also look online for free sheet music websites. Ask your music teacher if they have extra music they’d be willing to let you copy. Practice often. The best sight readers are musicians who are relaxed and confident in their skills. Becoming an experienced sight reader can take years, but implementing good practice habits is something you can do right now. Try to practice your sight reading for at least 15 minutes every day.  Write down what you practiced and how long you practiced in your journal. Practice sight reading slowly. You can always pick up the pace after you feel more comfortable with the music. Not only will practice drills help you recognize certain patterns and memorize note types, key signatures, and time signatures, it will also help you become a more confident musician. Websites like TheSightReadingProject.com allow you to practice for free online. Grab a cheap music book, flip to a random page, and start sight-reading something. Just like with any skill, the more you sight read, the more confident and proficient you will become. As you feel more comfortable with the basics, you can start fine-tuning your skills.

SUMMARY: Look for any obvious changes in style, key, tempo, or dynamic. Divide music into large chunks. Look for familiar rhythms. Keep a practice journal. Use drills to improve.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Some 4-way switches may have the "in" and "out" pairs opposite each other, rather than top and bottom.

Attach the black and white/blue traveler wires exiting the 4-way switch box to the next 4-way (or final 3-way) switch box to the "out" terminals, often the bottom terminals on the 4-way switch - black on the left bottom pole and white/blue on the right bottom pole.
