Download or read book Analytical Thinking for Advanced Learners Grades 3 5 written by Emily Hollett and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-07-29 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analytical Thinking for Advanced Learners, Grades 3–5 will teach students to think scientifically, systematically, and logically about questions and problems. Thinking analytically is a skill which helps students break down complex ideas into smaller parts in order to develop hypotheses and eventually reach a solution. Working through the lessons and handouts in this book, students will learn strategies and specific academic vocabulary in the sub-skills of noticing details, asking questions, classifying and organizing information, making hypotheses, conducting experiments, interpreting data, and drawing conclusions. The curriculum provides cohesive, scaffolded lessons to teach each targeted area of competency, followed by authentic application activities for students to then apply their newly developed skill set. This book can be used as a stand-alone gifted curriculum or as part of an integrated curriculum. Each lesson ties in both reading and metacognitive skills, making it easy for teachers to incorporate into a variety of contexts.
Download or read book Animalogies written by Michael Macrone and published by Doubleday Books. This book was released on 1995 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As surely as every dog has its day, nearly every animal in the kingdom has its way with our language. Best-selling author Macrone works his way through many a genus and species to shed light on how some of the more colorful and kooky animal analogies, metaphors, and fables found their way into our everyday speech. More than just a book of phrases, Animalogies is a wealth of information about the curious lives and habits of animals. Once upon a time, bad dogs were actually hung as criminals (hence "hang-dog look"), red herrings were used to foil rival huntsmen, and the information you would get straight from a horse's mouth was his age -- by looking at his teeth.
Download or read book Dog Days and Dandelions written by Martha Barnette and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2013-11-12 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From apian (like a bee) to zodiac (little-animals circle), a word book that spots the animal origins of words and names There are mice in your muscles, and blackbirds in your merlot. Behind adulation is a dog's wagging tail. Peculiar houses a herd of cattle. Grubby is crawling with bugs. Wordhound Martha Barnette collects more than 300 common (and a few not-so-common) words that have surprising animal roots. Tracing word origins back to ancient Greek and Latin as well as to European roots and American slang, the entries offer a guided tour through literature, science, folklore, politics, and more--with a wilderness of animal meanings at every turn. For fledgling word sleuths as well as those who fawn over etymologies, this is a delightful smorgasbord for writers, students, and word lovers.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He also employs this Biblical and folk wisdom in his call for liberty and equality, formulating impressive proverbial jeremiads after the Civil War. But proverbs also suit his fight for civil rights, and he makes the Golden Rule ("Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.") the ultimate wisdom for human life. These elements of traditional folk speech are certainly part and parcel of Frederick Douglass's social struggle for freedom and equality. This book contains a detailed analysis of Douglass's effective use of proverbial language in his published works.

Download or read book The Classroom of Choice written by Jonathan C. Erwin and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2004-05-15 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Outstanding! . . . a great guide for teachers who want to succeed with every student they teach." --William Glasser Teachers everywhere face the daily challenge of engaging students whose knowledge, skills, needs, and temperaments vary greatly. How does a teacher establish a learning environment that supports the class as a whole while meeting the particular needs of individual students? Teacher Jonathan C. Erwin believes the answer lies in offering real opportunities to students rather than throwing up the obstacles inherent in traditional discipline and motivation techniques. At the heart of his approach are the five basic human needs of William Glasser's Choice Theory: survival and security, love and belonging, power through cooperation and competency, freedom, and fun. By understanding and attending to these needs, teachers can customize and manage a classroom environment where students learn to motivate and monitor themselves. Drawing on theories and practices from experts in a variety of learning techniques, Erwin explores each of the five basic needs to create nearly 200 adaptable strategies for teaching and classroom management at any grade level. Readers will find dozens of ideas for helping students make positive changes, including * Improving their work habits, * Connecting curriculum with individual interests, * Opening lines of communication with teachers and other students, * Boosting self-worth through accomplishment, and * Supporting their classmates in cooperative work. Erwin ties everything together in a unit guide that allows teachers to develop a classroom profile based on the needs of individual students. The guide can be used with any district planning approach or curriculum. For teachers seeking a win-win situation in managing their classrooms, The Classroom of Choice is an excellent aid in creating a learning environment in which students and teachers approach each day with energy and enthusiasm.
