Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The preaching of God's Word happens tens of thousands of times each week across the world. As these sermons are given, when the preacher is faithful to the text of the Scripture, it is as if God is speaking to the people of that given congregation. The question is, are people listening? Listening to preaching is more than showing up, sitting still, or even nodding one's head. It is taking that which is preached and applying it to life. Helping Johnny Listen is a book designed to help the average person who sits in the average church on the average Sunday take full advantage of the sermons they hear so that they are able to live what they hear.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Johnny is different. He is never exactly on time, he can't seem to stick to a routine and he often speaks in cryptic idioms. Johnny is neurotypical, but that's ok. A picture book with a difference, Why Johnny Doesn't Flap turns the tables on common depictions of neurological difference by drolly revealing how people who are not on the autistic spectrum are perceived by those who are. The autistic narrator's bafflement at his neurotypical friend's quirks shows that 'normal' is simply a matter of perspective.

Download or read book White Boys Need Role Models Too written by Jannette M. Bush and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-03-15 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories that I am going to share with you, to the best of my knowledge and experiences, are true. Again, I’ve taught mostly boys—black and white boys. In some years, I’ve worked in classes that were nearly all white, and the reverse is also true. This book is not a body of research that should be used to influence policy in school districts. I merely want people to look at the lives of these young men and realize that all of us, black or white, are in need of caring individuals in our lives to help us make better choices in life. Hopefully, teachers will read this book and become better practitioners when dealing with students on the fringes. I’d also hope adults—parents, community leaders, religious leaders, and politicians—will look at all children and realize that race, money, and class do not insolate us from the perils of life. Having one parent or two at home cannot determine what course a person will take. Please read this book with an open heart and an open mind. I believe most educators, parents, community leaders, and professionals who work with children want to produce better children. Let the dialogue begin.
Download or read book Listening written by Katherine Schultz and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can new and experienced teachers rethink their teaching and learn to embrace and grow from the diversity they encounter among their students? Rather than preparing teachers to follow prescriptions or blueprints, Katherine Schultz suggests that they be given the tools and the opportunity to attend and respond to the students they teach. In this book, she offers a conceptual framework for “deep listening,” illustrating how successful teachers listen for the particularities of each student, listen for the rhythm and balance of the whole class, listen for the broader contexts of their students’ lives, and listen for silence and acts of silencing. Listening in this manner brings together knowledge of individual students, an understanding of a student’s place within the classroom and community, and mastery of subject matter and pedagogy. Featuring the perspectives of students and teachers, this volume proposes new ways of thinking about teaching across all grade levels and subject areas, addressing many of the challenges posed by the current climate of high-stakes testing and standardization. “Teaching requires careful listening. . . . If you want to learn to listen in order to teach really well, and to find your teaching interesting from one year to the next, pay close attention to how these teachers do their daily work.” —From the Foreword by Frederick Erickson “This is a beautifully crafted, wise, humane book that counters the rush to standards and test-taking. In place of a ‘one-size-fits-all’ strategy that constricts learning, Schultz advocates convincingly for a nuanced approach based on ‘listening.’ This is a book every educator from kindergarten through graduate school should read.” —Michael B. Katz, Walter H. Annenberg Professor of History, University of Pennsylvania
Download or read book Essentials of Adaptive Behavior Assessment of Neurodevelopmental Disorders written by Celine A. Saulnier and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical guide to adaptive behaviors across a range of neurodevelopmental disorders Adaptive behavior assessment measures independent living skills, including communication, social skills, personal care, and practical work skills. For individuals with intellectual disabilities, evaluation of these skills is a critical tool for measuring eligibility and can identify specific skills that must be learned before effective educational interventions can be implemented. Essentials of Adaptive Behavior Assessment of Neurodevelopmental Disorders describes the role of adaptive behavior in assessment and treatment, and provides clear guidance for measurement. Case samples provide real-world illustration of behaviors and assessment, and systematic comparison of various measures are presented and explained to better inform planning. Individual chapters outline specific adaptive behaviors across a range of neurodevelopmental disorders, giving clinicians, practitioners, students, and researchers a better understanding of diagnostic differentials and how to place independent skill programming in treatment and intervention. Plan intervention and treatment based on accessible measurement guidelines across a range of disorders Gain a deeper understanding of adaptive functioning specific to ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, disruptive behavior disorders, and genetic disorders Compare and contrast current measures to evaluate their strengths, weaknesses, and areas of overlap Quickly locate essential information with Rapid Reference and Caution boxes For individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders, adaptive behaviors are the keys to independence; without them, these individuals will perpetually struggle with achieving optimum independence without the basic skills needed to function at home, in school, and in the community. Assessment allows these skills to be factored in to treatment and intervention planning, and can help improve the outcomes of other intervention methods. Essentials of Adaptive Behavior Assessment of Neurodevelopmental Disorders clarifies the assessment of these important behaviors, helping clinicians make more informed decisions around diagnosis, education, and treatment planning.
