Equal parts penmanship instruction and art-therapy, Create a Signature You Love is a fun and easy program that will retrain your hand to write in smooth, precise strokes and rewire your brain to enjoy and succeed in creative projects. In her candid narrative style, author Brooke Vega walks you through her own journey from "I'm not an artistic person" to "I can learn to be artistic and have fun doing it." Step-by-step, she'll show you how she transformed her own signature from childlike to sophisticated and provide all the tools you'll need to do the same. With this comprehensive guide and workbook, you'll learn: How to finally get your hand to obey your mind and produce fluid, confident cursive writing. How to choose letter styles and flourishes for a beautiful, unique signature. How to stop believing that you're stuck with "naturally bad handwriting" and realize that talent has little to do with beautiful penmanship. How to critique your work instead of criticizing it. How to practice effectively for maximum progress with minimum effort. Practicing art is intimating if you believe that creativity is reserved for those born with innate talent. Change your mind and Create a Signature You Love.

What Is the What
Author: Dave Eggers

ISBN: 0307371379
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 563
Book Description
What Is the What is the story of Valentino Achak Deng, a refugee in war-ravaged southern Sudan who flees from his village in the mid-1980s and becomes one of the so-called Lost Boys. Valentino’s travels bring him in contact with enemy soldiers, with liberation rebels, with hyenas and lions, with disease and starvation, and with deadly murahaleen (militias on horseback)–the same sort who currently terrorize Darfur. Eventually Deng is resettled in the United States with almost 4000 other young Sudanese men, and a very different struggle begins. Based closely on true experiences, What Is the What is heartbreaking and arresting, filled with adventure, suspense, tragedy, and, finally, triumph.

Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
No two children learn the same way. Exploring educational concepts through movement and multiple sensory experiences gives children an opportunity to learn in ways they understand. To capture this array of learning variability, it is important to engage the body's senses; seeing, hearing, touching, tasting, smelling, and moving are the basic building blocks to learning across all domains. The ABC's of Active Learning engages the whole child in multisensory experiences geared to developing the literacy skills needed for reading and writing. The 26 alphabet units provide opportunities for children to use all of their senses to fully explore and experience each letter of the alphabet. Each alphabet unit is complete with phonemic awareness activities including rhyming and alliteration sentences with a children's book suggestion for language enrichment. Multisensory writing using unconventional materials, fine motor crafts, and gross motor games offer developmentally appropriate activities for early learners of all abilities. Children will love the hands-on activities as they connect literacy experiences to each alphabet letter.
