Inside the Social Studies Classroom
Author: Jere BrophyPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135600961
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
EDUCATION/ SOCIAL STUDIES "... a much-needed addition to elementary social studies that will move the field ahead." Keith C. Barton, University of Cincinnati "This text fills a valuable niche and should quickly become a leading reference for teachers and teacher educators." Linda S. Levstik, University of Kentucky This book, resulting from a collaboration among an educational psychologist, a social studies educator, and a primary teacher, describes in rich detail and illustrates with excerpts from recorded lessons how primary teachers can engage their students in social studies lessons and activities that are structured around powerful ideas and have applications to their lives outside of school. The teaching portrayed connects concepts and skills emphasized in national and state standards, taught in ways that build on students’ prior experiences in their local communities and connect with their family backgrounds and home cultures. The analyses include rich descriptions of the teacher-student interactions that occur during lessons, detailed information about how and why the teacher adapted lesson plans to meet her students’ background experiences and adjusted these plans to take advantage of teachable moments that emerged during lessons, and what all of this might imply concerning principles of practice. The principles are widely applicable in elementary schools across the country, as well as across the curriculum (not just in social studies) and across the elementary grades (not just the primary grades).

Raktaar controls a sludge harvested from the fear of living creatures. He is incredibly strong, invisible to human eyes, and does not die from age.

He is a giant wooden man that can communicate with nature and transform into a small flower. Caught between them are brother and sister Boris and Tanya, who Raktaar nearly killed when they were younger. They want Raktaar dead, and Do You See Me Now? is the engaging and illustrative story of Raktaar’s hunger for supremacy fighting Boris, Tanya, and Nehemiah’s drive for peace.

Author: More Readings From One Man's Wilderness
Author: John BransonPublisher: Skyhorse
ISBN: 1626366535
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 872
Book Description
Throughout history, many people have escaped to nature either permanently or temporarily to rest and recharge. Richard L. Proenneke, a modern-day Henry David Thoreau, is no exception. Proenneke built a cabin in Twin Lakes, Alaska in 1968 and began thirty years of personal growth, which he spent growing more connected to the wilderness in which he lived. This guide through Proenneke’s memories follows the journey that began with One Man’s Wilderness, which contains some of Proenneke’s journals. It continues the story and reflections of this mountain man and his time in Alaska. The editor, John Branson, was a longtime friend of Proenneke’s and a park historian. He takes care that Proenneke’s journals from 1974-1980 are kept exactly as the author wrote them. Branson’s footnotes give a background and a new understanding to the reader without detracting from Proenneke’s style. Anyone with an interest in conservation and genuine wilderness narratives will surely enjoy and treasure this book.
