Paperback. Etat : Good. The struggle to understand the true meaning of home is one many of us face. For those who have been adopted, that challenge can be even greater. Throughout her life, Shawna Marie Fischer had searched to find her footing in the world, with no idea that her greatest guide would come with four paws and a wagging tongue. Soulmate Dog recounts Shawna's moving journey with Luna, the yellow lab whose unconditional love not only helped her heal from trauma but unlock her ability to communicate with the incredible furry and feathered angels who walk alongside us. Luna is there as Shawna explores the ways in which being adopted affected her in both positive and negative ways; she also, with the unconditional love only animals can give, shows Shawna where she had compromised herself and, ultimately, how to embrace life to the fullest. Filled with highs and lows, fun adventures and sparks of wisdom, the book will help readers realize the transcendent experience of truly listening to their animal companions, and remember how their relationships with their beloved pets healed their lives and the lives of those around them. It also shows readers how they are in constant communication with their animals (whether they realize it or not), and how they can tune into them in a deeper and more intentional way.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Traditionally, small-group math instruction has been used as a format for reaching children who struggle to understand. Math coach Kassia Omohundro Wedekind uses small-group instruction as the centerpiece of her math workshop approach, engaging all students in rigorous "math exchanges." The key characteristics of these mathematical conversations are that they are: 1) short, focused sessions that bring all mathematical minds together, 2) responsive to the needs of the specific group of mathematicians, and 3) designed for meaningful, guided reflection.As in reading and writing workshop, students in math workshop become self-directed and independent while participating in a classroom community of learners. Through the math exchanges, students focus on number sense and the big ideas of mathematics. Teachers guide the conversations with small groups of students, mediating talk and thinking as students share problem-solving strategies, discuss how math works, and move toward more effective and efficient approaches and greater mathematical understanding.Although grounded in theory and research, Math Exchanges: Guiding Young Mathematicians in Small Group Meetings is written for practicing teachers and answers such questions as the following:How can I use a math workshop approach and follow a certain textbook or set of standards?How should I form small groups? How often should I meet with small groups?What should I focus on in small groups?How can I tell if my groups are making progress?What do small-group math exchanges look like, sound like, and feel like.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. We all need people to help us find the way. In this stirring new book, acclaimed author and educator Eric Liu takes us on a quest for those guiding lights. He shares invaluable lessons from people whose "classrooms" are boardrooms, arenas, concert halls, theaters, kitchens, and places of worship-and in the process, he reveals a surprising path to purpose. As he entered fatherhood and a phase of changing ambitions, Eric Liu set out in search of great mentors. He found much more. He encountered people from all walks of life, from all across the country, with something powerful to pass on about how to change lives. Among those Liu portrays in vivid and fascinating narratives are one of Hollywood's finest acting teachers, who turns a middling young actress into a project for transformation; an esteemed major league pitching coach, haunted by the players he's let down; a rising executive whose eye for untapped talent allows her to rescue a floundering employee; a master clown whose workshop teaches a husband-and-wife team to revamp their relationship, onstage and off; a high school debate coach whose protégée falters at the pinnacle, and thus finds triumph; and a gangland priest who has saved many and yet still must confront the limits of his power to heal. In these pages are remarkable stories of apprenticeship-of failure, hope, and discovery. These are stories of men and women who learned to hear the sound of other people's voices and, in so doing, found their own way to a better and fuller life. As Eric Liu reminds us, these are our stories. Lyrical and accessible, Guiding Lights is a course to benefit any reader, a superb work of narrative nonfiction, and an exciting departure for its accomplished author. This book will change how we live, lead, learn, and love. Pass it on. …

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success was a phenomenon that touched millions of lives. Its author, Deepak Chopra, received thousands of letters from parents who expressed the desire to convey the principles they had learned to their children, along with questions about how to do so. The Seven Spiritual Laws for Parents is Dr. Chopra's answer to those parents who wish to raise children with values that satisfy spiritual needs as well as create the experience of abundance. Exploring specific ways to practice the Seven Spiritual Laws as a family, Chopra explains how to convey these laws to children, and how to embody them in age-specific activities each day. The Seven Spiritual Laws for Parents moves us beyond a focus on private triumphs and failures to experience the spiritual nature of communion with family, to share with those closest to us the infinite riches of innocence and love. The deepest nurturing you can give your child is spiritual nurturing. There are seven simple sayings that can have a profound impact on your child's life. * Everything is possible. * If you want to get something, give something. * When you make a choice, you change the future. * Don't say no--go with the flow. * Every time you wish or want, you plant a seed. * Enjoy the journey. * You are here for a reason. Raised with these insights, every child can obtain the success that comes from having the most valuable skills anyone can possess: the ability to love and have compassion, and the capacity to feel joy and spread it to others. In this essential work for every parent, Deepak Chopra reflects on his experiences as a father as well as his own spiritual journey and offers profound and practical ways for sharing these principles with your children. Also available as a Random House AudioBook.…

Through practical examples, research tools, and easy-to-follow implementation strategies, Richard Sagor guides readers through the process from start to finish. Learn how to uncover and use the data that already exist in your classrooms and schools to answer significant questions about your individual or collective concerns and interests.
