Download or read book Don t Erase the Board Words from a Teacher Who Made a Difference in My Life written by Dede Toney and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dede's story comes from the heart of one who has experienced the journey of the creative, gifted child with a learning difference. Often, they are extremely gifted, but perform poorly in school, especially with reading. As teachers, parents and family members, we need to understand the strengths and weaknesses which begin in early childhood and persist through adulthood. The characteristics of dyslexia, a neurobiological disorder, are often mistaken for laziness, carelessness, or disinterest. Become an advocate for these students in classrooms, church groups, Scout troops, athletic teams, music/art departments and others. Give them an opportunity for recognition. Our students who struggle with written language need academic instruction, but they also need hope and the knowledge that you care. Will you be the one who touches their life in a positive way and gives them hope? Kay Peterson, CALT Director, Mississippi College Dyslexia Therapy Program Dede Toney is a certified teacher as well as a certified Academic Language Therapist. She is the published author of "Glimpses of God's Faithfulness" published in 2004 by Xulon Press.

Download or read book Dangerous Minds written by LouAnne Johnson and published by St. Martin's Paperbacks. This book was released on 1995-09-15 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She bullied, bluffed, and bribed her students into caring about school. And if that didn't work, the pretty, petite ex-marine told them she'd been trained to kill with her bare hands. They were called the class from Hell-thirty-four inner city sophomores she inherited from a teacher who'd been "pushed over the edge." She was told "those kids have tasted blood. They're dangerous." But LouAnne Johnson had a different idea. Where the school system saw thirty-four unreachable kids, she saw young men and women with intelligence and dreams. When others gave up on them, she broke the rules to give them the best things a teacher can give-hope and belief in themselves. When statistics showed the chances were they'd never graduate, she fought to beat the odds. This is her remarkable story-and theirs. If you loved Stand and Deliver, you'll stand up and cheer for LouAnne Johnson and Dangerous Minds.
