Download or read book Ready to Learn written by Stanley Goldberg and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005-02-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you tell your preschooler one thing and they do the opposite? Are they easily distracted or unable to focus? If you suspect that your child may have a learning problem--or if you simply want to help them be ready--here is the book to read before he or she enters the school system: a realistic, humorous, and kind-hearted guide to helping your little one learn. In Ready to Learn, Stan Goldberg draws on thirty years of clinical experience (and personal experience as the father of two kids with learning differences) to provide an easy-to-use guide to helping children overcome any problems and improve their learning skills. Illustrating his discussion with many anecdotes about teaching both his own children and children in his private practice, Goldberg walks readers through the process of learning and shows how to identify a learning problem. He focuses on four major areas--problems of attention, understanding, storage, and retrieval--presenting each problem through the eyes of the child, in everyday terms that a parent can understand. He looks at seven down-to-earth strategies that will allow you to create the best plan to help your child overcome their problem and he provides many handy charts and figures that will help you organize your efforts. The book also includes a list of useful web sites and a chart of development milestones, outlining motor skills, cognitive-sensory skills, and language and social skills. Written in a style that blends humor, insightful stories, and practical experience, Ready to Learn provides a flexible, time-tested approach, using step-by-step strategies that will help your preschoolers become confident and love learning--before they enter the classroom.
Download or read book 100 Decrees Pleading the Blood of Jesus written by Tella Olayeri and published by GOD'S LINK VENTURES. This book was released on 2020-11-28 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is power in Jesus name; there is power in his blood. The blood of Jesus is God’s last card. Pleading blood of Jesus is one of the most offensive and effective way to pray and bring Satan to his knee. No demon under heaven can resist blood of Jesus. The blood of Jesus is our stronghold as believers. A sense of transaction takes place in heaven when you plead blood of Jesus. With blood of Jesus, we have eternal access to all our hanging inheritance in Christ. This day, many Christians are getting robbed, abducted, murdered emotionally, and or, physically abused, slandered, cheated or scammed. All these you can overcome by pleading blood of Jesus upon your life and poverty. This is needed because many Christians are coming under such heavy attacks from both demons and evil people in the world. This book will save Christians living a defeated life with no real joy, peace, or power in life. Storm cloud after cloud keeps coming after them, beating them to a pulp. This book is important for Christians that have not been properly taught how to engage with the enemy when he does come their way, yet drowning in the sea of trouble and confusion. This book will also help you to have personal relationship with the Lord and beat evil knowledge of Satan, his antics and operation. Hence, you will know how to properly pray or stand in gap for others to get God to move in His supernatural power that brings freedom, healing and deliverance. We need to plead blood of Jesus to give multiple blessings as follows: 1. Jesus was offered once to bear the sins of many. Hebrew 9:28 2. Blood of Jesus justified us to be saved from wrath of the enemy. Romans 5:9 3. We are redeemed and forgiven of our sins through his blood. Ephesians 1:12 4. We are spared from God’s wrath Romans 5:9 5. Blood of Jesus makes us spiritually alive John 6:53 6. We receive judgment of peace Isaiah 53:5 7. We are cleansed 1 John 1:7 8. We are given power to overcome the enemy Revelation 12:11 9. We are saved from the curses of the Law. Galatians 3:13 10. We are reclaimed from the enemy Ephesians 1:7 This book is spiritually loaded and good to all Christians.
