Artsy Martina can change her eye color. Nerdy Nick can teleport . . . four inches to the left. Outcast Farshad develops super strength, but only in his thumbs. And Cookie, the It Girl of school’s most popular clique, has suddenly developed the ability to read minds . . . when those minds are thinking about directions.

Download or read book 27 Secrets to Raising Amazing Children written by Molly Brown Koch and published by Sidran Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over fifty years author Molly Brown Koch has been working with parent groups advocating that mothers and fathers reconnect with their own intuition and learn to trust their judgment while at the same time relying on the experts for their knowledge of child development. This two-pronged approach enables parents to recognize which behaviors stem from their own children's personalities and which are normal stages all children go through. Ms. Koch explains, ?It was clear we were all making mistakes'big ones, little ones, silly ones, serious ones. But it was also clear that we made them inadvertently. We simply didn't know that many of our well-intentioned actions could have unwanted results.' Careful listening has enabled the author to formulate a list of key secrets to raising amazing children. The ?27 Secrets? in this book contain insights that will help parents recognize actions that can turn out to be mistakes, how and why they are mistakes, how they affect children, and how they can be avoided. It explains how parents from many backgrounds have been able to adapt the ideas presented here to make the relationships with their children close and honest, enjoyable and satisfying, rewarding and, above all, lasting. By combining the collective wisdom that grew out of their wide range of experiences and feelings with a new philosophy of parenting and two eye-opening definitions of respect, parents will not just raise their children, they will uplift them and, in the process, be themselves uplifted.

Summit Public Schools has since won national recognition for its exceptional outcomes: Ninety-nine percent of students are accepted to a four-year college, and they graduate from college at twice the national average. But in a radical departure from the environments created by the college admissions arms race, Summit students aren’t focused on competing with their classmates for rankings or test scores. Instead, students spend their days solving real-world problems and developing the skills of self-direction, collaboration, and reflection, all of which prepare them to succeed in college, thrive in today’s workplace, and lead a secure and fulfilled life. Through personal stories and hard-earned lessons from Summit’s exceptional team of educators and diverse students, Tavenner shares the learning philosophies underlying the Summit model and offers a blueprint for any parent who wants to stop worrying about their children’s future—and start helping them prepare for it. At a time when many students are struggling to regain educational and developmental ground lost to the disruptions of the pandemic, Prepared is more urgent and necessary than ever.
