Paperback. Etat : Good. Created to follow each Toolkit lesson, the Comprehension Intervention small-group sessions narrow the instructional focus, concentrating on critical aspects of the Toolkit's lesson strategy to reinforce kids' understanding, step by step. Using the language of the Toolkits in a small-group setting, Comprehension Intervention approaches each Toolkit strategy lesson in a new way and with new texts, showing kids that they can apply the thinking and strategy language they learned within the whole group to a wide variety of readings. Framed around the gradual release of responsibility, the four-step session structure provides explicit scaffolded instruction. With an eye towards formative assessment, each session ends with Assess and Plan, a section that supports daily progress monitoring with strategy-specific suggestions for reviewing student work, assessing students' thinking and accomplishment of session goals, and determining the need for additional practice. Comprehension Intervention lessons lend themselves to a variety of instructional settings: Guided reading groups - Sessions are ideal for small, flexible, needs-based guided reading groups to reinforce or extend what has been taught in a Toolkit lesson. Tier 2 RTI groups - Sessions are designed to take about thirty minutes. They break down the original Toolkit instruction into smaller steps, making learning more accessible for Tier 2 students. Tier 3 RTI groups - Infinitely flexible and targeted, sessions help teachers increase instructional intensity for individuals or very small groups, allowing additional time for instruction and practice. Special Education - The Toolkit whole-group lessons are ideal for special ed inclusion because they are based on shared readings, which allow for natural differentiation. All kids can participate in the whole group Toolkit lessons and then have their individual needs met in the small-group intervention lessons.

Hardback. Etat : Very Good. Every leader understands the burning need for change?and every leader knows how risky it is, and how often it fails. To make organizational change work, you need to base it on science, not intuition. Despite hundreds of books on change, failure rates remain sky high. Are there deep flaws in the guidance change leaders are given? While eschewing the pat answers, linear models, and change recipes offered elsewhere, Paul Gibbons offers the first blueprint for change that fully reflects the newest advances in mindfulness, behavioral economics, the psychology of risk-taking, neuroscience, mindfulness, and complexity theory.   Change management, ostensibly the craft of making change happen, is rife with myth, pseudoscience, and flawed ideas from pop psychology.  In Gibbons? view, change management should be ?euthanized? and replaced with change agile businesses, with change leaders at every level.  To achieve that, business education and leadership training in organizations needs to become more accountable for real results, not just participant satisfaction (the ?edutainment? culture).    Twenty-first century change leaders need to focus less on project results, more on creating agile cultures and businesses full of staff who have ?get to? rather than ?have to? attitudes. To do that, change leaders will have to leave behind the old paradigm of ?carrots and sticks,? both of which destroy engagement.    ?New analytics? offer more data-driven approaches to decision making, but present a host of people challenges?where petabyte information flows meet traditional decision-making structures. These approaches will have to be complemented with ?leading with science??that is, using evidence-based management to inform strategy and policy decisions. In The Science of Successful Organizational Change, you'll learn: How the VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous) world affects the scale and pace of change in today?s businesses How understanding of flaws in human decision-making can help leaders guide their teams toward wiser strategic decisions when the stakes are largest?including ?when to trust your guy and when to trust a model? and ?when all of us are smarter than one of us? How new advances in neuroscience have altered best practices in influencing colleagues; negotiating with partners; engaging followers' hearts, minds, and behaviors; and managing resistance How leading organizations are making use of the science of mindfulness to create agile learners and agile cultures How new ideas from analytics, forecasting, and risk are humbling those who thought they knew the future?and how the human side of analytics and the psychology of risk are paradoxically more important in this technologically enabled world What complexity theory means for decision-making in the context of your own business How to create resilient and agile business cultures and anti-fragile, dynamic business structures To link science with your "on-the-ground" reality, Gibbons tells ?warts and all? stories from his twenty-plus years consulting to top teams and at the largest businesses in the world. You'll find case studies from well-known companies like IBM and Shell and CEO interviews from Nokia and Barclays Bank.…

Hardback. Etat : Good. About the Fourth Edition: With new chapters on fluency and motivation, the Fourth Edition of Teaching Reading in the 21st Century maintains the friendly voice of its widely recognized author team and its superior coverage of assessment for learning, and strengthens its commitment to a rich, balanced, and comprehensive program of reading instruction. Always practical, this edition is even richer in first-person accounts, instructional routines, classroom vignettes, and hands-on literacy activities. One reviewer sums it up: In a perfect number of chapters for a typical college semester, Graves et al. carefully cover such incredibly important concepts as the complex, recursive nature of reading and writing, the special considerations. for English language learners, and the intricacies of grouping learners. Countless professors will appreciate the ways in which the authors highlight and consistently interweave such vital notions as metacognition, scaffolding, the gradual release of responsibility model, and reciprocal teaching. Perhaps my favorite part of the text is that there is not just one, but two excellent chapters on comprehension.
