Download or read book Educating Esm written by Esmé Raji Codell and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2009-09-01 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At once "a pop culture phenomenon" (Publishers Weekly) and "screamingly funny" (Booklist), Educating Esmé "should be read by anyone who's interested in the future of public education" (Boston Phoenix Literary Section). A must-read for parents, new teachers, and classroom veterans, Educating Esmé is the exuberant diary of Esmé Raji Codell’s first year teaching in a Chicago public school. Fresh-mouthed and free-spirited, the irrepressible Madame Esmé—as she prefers to be called—does the cha-cha during multiplication tables, roller-skates down the hallways, and puts on rousing performances with at-risk students in the library. Her diary opens a window into a real-life classroom from a teacher’s perspective. While battling bureaucrats, gang members, abusive parents, and her own insecurities, this gifted young woman reveals what it takes to be an exceptional teacher. Heroine to thousands of parents and educators, Esmé now shares more of her ingenious and yet down-to-earth approaches to the classroom in a supplementary guide to help new teachers hit the ground running. As relevant and iconoclastic as when it was first published, Educating Esmé is a classic, as is Madame Esmé herself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book MEMORIES OF MOUNTAIN HOME SCHOOL is a personal journey by a former student, a labor of love. Part 1 traces the evolution of the school from a one-room, one-teacher school teaching grades one through eight to become a rural consolidated school teaching a fully accredited high school curriculum, to its sad decline and closure brought about by dramatic socio-economic changes that took place following WWII. The author draws from original sources to capture the role of the school in the lives of early settlers prior to Oklahoma statehood and during the years of rapid settlement and political turmoil following Oklahoma statehood through WWI. It describes dedicated work to continue upgrading the school during the economically static years of the 1920s and the years of brutal economic decline during the Great Depression, to form a fully accredited rural high school. After becoming fully accredited in 1941 Mountain Home School enjoyed its years of greatest achievements during the 1940s. Then decline brought about by rapidly declining population set in in the early 1950s leading to closure of the school in 1958. Part 2 is the personal memories contributed by 56 former Mountain Home School students. Their span the period from the early 1930s to the closure of the school in 1958. These wonderful personal memories convey the spirit and achievements of the school and the spirit and shared values of those who learned there.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I attended my 55th high school reunion in July of 2012 and was inspired to write Home Town Memories of Grinnell, Iowa. This work is not intended to be an all inclusive, comprehensive, scholarly history with a preoccupation for exact dates, etc. It is simply a personal history, my recollections of the old home town during a limited period in the towns history the 40s, 50s and 60s. I have written in my own way using a flow of words that came to me as I wrote. In a town of 8,000 9,000, as Grinnell was in those days - you eventually get to know and have some contact along the way with most people. My intent was to communicate in simple, straight forward terms and was not concerned about presenting it as a triumph in English language grammar.

Download or read book Fulfilling the Charter written by Roger Boop and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-03 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the landscape of teacher education developed during the late 1800s, historical antecedents of Butler University's College of Education initiated what we now know as long-term commitments to work and service at local, state, and national levels. This historical account of the College brings to light how teachers, leaders, and colleagues possessing vision, a shared commitment to children, excellence in education, and humor have inspired and influenced generations. Those who are aware of Butler University and those who have yet to learn of the quiet excellence that lives within the north-side Indianapolis neighborhood will glean lessons of collaboration, struggle, success, and the innate power of being able to dream as the history of the College of Education unfolds. In 1961, for his undergraduate application for student teaching at Butler University, Roger William Boop wrote, "I certainly believe in change, but change is not good for change's sake because change does not always imply progress." His belief in change, a personal commitment to education, and a love of history that allows one to look closely at the facets leading to progress, underscore his research some 46 years later as he shares the story of the College of Education and more...
