With a Little Help from My Friends

Publisher: Teachers College Press
ISBN: 0807777978
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
This conversation-based approach accelerates language acquisition for EL students and advances academics and social–emotional learning for all. The authors present a research-based pedagogical model to help K–12 teachers modify the way they plan and implement their lessons to better support the linguistic, cognitive, and social–emotional development of culturally and linguistically diverse students. “The authors remind us that we are working too hard in our roles as providers of knowledge and literacy. Rather, a focus on collaborative interactions among students better enables their autonomy, mutual learning, and self-directed paths to meaning and knowledge. The teacher onus is reduced, yet students’ ownership and confidence are bolstered in more socioconstructive and effectual ways. This work is a must read for all educators!” —Socorro G. Herrera, Kansas State University and author of Accelerating Literacy for Diverse Learners “Describes a system of classroom practice that centers on discourse-rich pedagogies. This book makes an important contribution to the growing field of culturally and linguistically sustaining instructional strategies.” —Cory Buxton, College of Education, Oregon State University “The authors’ detailed model for achieving ‘joint productive activity’ transforms the mysterious alchemy of ‘great teaching’ into a thoughtful, collaborative, and mindful process all teachers can use to engage students in learning.” —Betsy R. Rymes, Penn Graduate School of Education

With a Little Help from Our Friends
Author: Beth Baker
Publisher: Vanderbilt University Press
ISBN: 082651989X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
In this book, an award-winning journalist tells the story of people devising innovative ways to live as they approach retirement, options that ensure they are surrounded by a circle of friends, family, and neighbors. Based on visits and interviews at many communities around the country, Beth Baker weaves a rich tapestry of grassroots alternatives, some of them surprisingly affordable: • a mobile home cooperative in small-town Oregon • a senior artists colony in Los Angeles • neighbors helping neighbors in "Villages" or "naturally occurring retirement communities" • intentional cohousing communities • best friends moving in together • multigenerational families that balance togetherness and privacy • niche communities including such diverse groups as retired postal workers, gays and lesbians, and Zen Buddhists Drawing on new research showing the importance of social support to healthy aging and the risks associated with loneliness and isolation, the author encourages the reader to plan for a future with strong connections. Baker explores whether individuals in declining health can really stay rooted in their communities through the end of life and concludes by examining the challenge of expanding the home-care workforce and the potential of new technologies like webcams and assistive robots. This book is the recipient of the annual Norman L. and Roselea J. Goldberg Prize for the best project in the area of medicine.

With A Little Help From My Friends
Author: Carolyn Addie
Publisher: Page Publishing Inc
ISBN: 1662466781
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
With a Little Help from My Friends is a magical journey for all ages, but if you’re a fan of the Fab Four, it’s so much more. There are 323 Song Titles carefully incorporated into the telling of the story (including many rarities, deep cuts, early tapes, demos, covers, giveaways, unreleased, bootlegs, instrumentals, etc.). Each Title appears only once in the story line, just waiting to be discovered by the reader as a fun and entertaining challenge. In addition, trying to unravel the letters in the names of the main characters, as well as many other characters (wives, girlfriends, and those thought to be the fifth Beatle, etc.), poses another challenge to even the most skilled fan. So, grab your highlighter and let the search begin! Beyond the challenges is a story “out of this world,” hoping to brighten your day and to remind you to never forget that pure Joy is inside every one of us if you just let her into your heart. This book is a well-deserved tribute to the Fab Four. But, most of all, the story sparks the desire to bring love into the forefront of our lives, much like how The Beatles inspired our spirits through their music for over sixty years.
