Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am being what they call an incorrigible scamp Under normal circumstances the very idea of speaking about myself would leave me a frantic wreck. This however to me is not a normal circumstance. I am an open book if one could ever strike up the nerve to ask. I like to understand the very deep consequences offending our answers. Feeling through the situation in all its aspects tends to strike a certain terror in people that some are ill prepared for. Life journies through us all. We enter one another's lives only to depart in what seems like mere moments later. This is all okay but the varied amount of emotion produced from such encounters leaves so many faltered. The bound leather volume events of my life aspire me to become as only to what a dream could pronounce. To say from known events and my reasons behind them tell two separate stories. I would like to say that my life began when my first word hit paper but that would be a fallacy on my part. I am shaped by my life before those moments in ways that I do not begin to comprehend. I see these events and am left baffled by my outcome. Choosing how to live this brief time we get between what I was taught to be and by how I get it wrong and by getting it right, this was quite a decision. By what one was taught or by what one learnt. I am being what I feel is a happy person.

Book excerpt: "[C]areful and sinewy plotting, which reveals in chilling detail who gets to make art, and who gets subsumed in the process."—New York Times Book Review A debut thriller for fans of Lucy Foley and Liz Moore, Dark Things I Adore is a stunning Gone Girl-esque tale of atonement that proves that in the grasp of manipulative men, women may momentarily fall. But in the hands of fierce women, men will be brought to their knees. Three campfire secrets. Two witnesses. One dead in the trees. And the woman, thirty years later, bent on making the guilty finally pay. 1988. A group of outcasts gather at a small, prestigious arts camp nestled in the Maine woods. They're the painters: bright, hopeful, teeming with potential. But secrets and dark ambitions rise like smoke from a campfire, and the truths they tell will come back to haunt them in ways more deadly than they dreamed. 2018. Esteemed art professor Max Durant arrives at his protégé's remote home to view her graduate thesis collection. He knows Audra is beautiful and brilliant. He knows being invited into her private world is a rare gift. But he doesn't know that Audra has engineered every aspect of their weekend together. Every detail, every conversation. Audra has woven the perfect web. Only Audra knows what happened that summer in 1988. Max's secret, and the dark things that followed. And even though it won't be easy, Audra knows someone must pay. A searing psychological thriller of trauma, dark academia, complicity, and revenge, Dark Things I Adore unravels the realities behind campfire legends—the horrors that happen in the dark, the girls who become cautionary tales, and the guilty who go unpunished. Until now. "A smart, nuanced exploration of victims and villains, inspiration and theft, and the intersection of these things, in every artist. Pay attention to Katie Lattari. She's the real deal."—Sarah Langan, author of Good Neighbors

Book Exploring Montana Through Project Based Learning

Download or read book Exploring Montana Through Project Based Learning written by Carole Marsh and published by Gallopade International. This book was released on 2016-05-17 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring Montana through Project-Based Leaning includes 50 well-thought-out projects designed for grades 3-5. In assigning your students projects that dig into MontanaÕs geography, history, government, economy, current events, and famous people, you will deepen their appreciation and understanding of Montana while simultaneously improving their analytical skills and ability to recognize patterns and big-picture themes. Project-based learning today is much different than the craft-heavy classroom activities popular in the past. Inquiry, planning, research, collaboration, and analysis are key components of project-based learning activities today. However, that doesnÕt mean creativity, individual expression, and fun are out. They definitely arenÕt! Each project is designed to help students gain important knowledge and skills that are derived from standards and key concepts at the heart of academic subject areas. Students are asked to analyze and solve problems, to gather and interpret data, to develop and evaluate solutions, to support their answers with evidence, to think critically in a sustained way, and to use their newfound knowledge to formulate new questions worthy of exploring. While some projects are more complex and take longer than others, they all are set up in the same structure. Each begins with the central project-driving questions, proceeds through research and supportive questions, has the student choose a presentation option, and ends with a broader-view inquiry. Rubrics for reflection and assessments are included, too. This consistent framework will make it easier for you assign projects and for your students to follow along and consistently meet expectations. Encourage your students to take charge of their projects as much as possible. As a teacher, you can act as a facilitator and guide. The projects are structured such that students can often work through the process on their own or through cooperation with their classmates.

Book excerpt: "[A] superior thriller"—Publishers Weekly STARRED Review "J.P. Smith's latest thriller is an exquisite labyrinth of plot twists"—Traci Medford-Rosow, USA Today bestselling author When it comes to contacting the dead, it's easy to go a step too far Every year, as the anniversary of 9/11 inches closer on the calendar, Kit Capriol scans the memorials published in the New York Times. It's a simple thing to look up a name and phone number, to reach out to surviving family members who might still be yearning for connection with their lost loved one... to offer assistance. After her husband went down in the north tower, Kit scraped by as an actress, barely supporting herself and her daughter. But now Zoey is in the hospital, bills are due, and the acting work has dried up. Becoming a medium is almost too easy for someone used to pretending for a living—and desperate clients aren't hard to come by. Now, though, something has changed. The seances Kit holds in her apartment are starting to feel unsettlingly real, and the intriguing man she met at a local bar could be more complicated than he seems. As the voices of the dead grow louder in her head and the walls of her apartment close in, Kit realizes that despite her daughter's absence, she hasn't been quite as alone as she thought. "The Summoning is a suspenseful and gripping novel, one readers can count on to keep them reading into the late hours."—Mystery & Suspense Magazine
