Download or read book Little Hut by the Sea written by Andreas Sofroniou and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-08-31 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CELEBRATING SIXTY YEARS OF COMPOSING POETRY It was sixty years ago when I wrote my first four lines of a poem in English. This was called The Fireplace. I was thirteen years of age and a second year student of The English School in my hometown Morphou, Cyprus. The composition of poetry is an art where words construct sentences, verses using metaphors and symbols, which in turn are based on imagination, facts, and life experiences. A poem does not have to rhyme and yet it can be a stanza, a canto to a loved one, an ode to a hero, a sarcastic remark to emphasise the importance of a point made, an elegy composed to explain feelings arranged as a work of art. What prose can explain in three hundred pages, a poem (as a masterpiece) can express in one single page; with more meaning, using larger-than-life pictures describing timeless classic scenes, memorable events and bringing immortality to life itself.

Download or read book Bad Guys Don t Have Birthdays written by Vivian Gussin Paley and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-07-26 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bad guys are not allowed to have birthdays, pick blueberries, or disturb the baby. So say the four-year-olds who announce life's risks and dangers as they play out the school year in Vivian Paley's classroom. Their play is filled with warnings. They invent chaos in order to show that everything is under control. They portray fear to prove that it can be conquered. No theme is too large or too small for their intense scrutiny. Fantasy play is their ever dependable pathway to knowledge and certainty. " It . . . takes a special teacher to value the young child's communications sufficiently, enter into a meaningful dialogue with the youngster, and thereby stimulate more productivity without overwhelming the child with her own ideas. Vivian Paley is such a teacher."—Maria W. Piers, in the American Journal of Education "[Mrs. Paley's books] should be required reading wherever children are growing. Mrs. Paley does not presume to understand preschool children, or to theorize. Her strength lies equally in knowing that she does not know and in trying to learn. When she cannot help children—because she can neither anticipate nor follow their thinking—she strives not to hinder them. She avoids the arrogance of adult to small child; of teacher to student; or writer to reader."—Penelope Leach, author of Your Baby & Child in the New York Times Book Review "[Paley's] stories and interpretation argue for a new type of early childhood education . . . a form of teaching that builds upon the considerable knowledge children already have and grapple with daily in fantasy play."—Alex Raskin, Los Angeles Times Book Review "Through the 'intuitive language' of fantasy play, Paley believes, children express their deepest concerns. They act out different roles and invent imaginative scenarios to better understand the real world. Fantasy play helps them cope with uncomfortable feelings. . . . In fantasy, any device may be used to draw safe boundaries."—Ruth J. Moss, Psychology Today

Book excerpt: Classroom Crusaders presents twelve inspirational profiles of teachers who are leading education reform in their schools, districts, and communities. Their stories clearly illustrate the enormous reservoir of energy, vitality, intelligence, and creativity among our nation's teaching force--and reveal how it could well be our most important source of positive educational change.Each story provides a portrait of someone who challenged the status quo and made a difference. We see how a Brooklyn educator created a place for racially divided students to come together and solve problems peaceably. We learn how a Rochester teachers' union president challenged time-honored labor practices in order to improve schools. And we follow the story of two Milwaukee teachers who started a feisty newspaper to shake up the local education establishment and then went on to create an experimental public school. The profiles show not only what these teachers accomplished, but also how they themselves changed in the process.
