Download or read book Grammar written by Rachel Grenon and published by Bloomsbury USA. This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the ancient scholarly curriculum, grammar formed part of the Trivium, with its sister sciences of logic and rhetoric. Logic asks: When is a sentence true? Rhetoric asks: Which is the right sentence? Grammar purely asks: When is a sentence correct? In Grammar, Rachel Grenon defines the rules governing the construction of words, phrases, sentences, and extended text or speech. Beginning with the rules behind ancient languages such as Sanskrit and Greek, she then focuses on how the rules of English have developed-from nouns and pronouns, verbs and adverbs, to tenses, the passive voice, questions, imperatives, and much more. With diagrams, engravings, and witty cartoon illustrations, this original take on a classic subject is essential for anyone interested in language.

This is a detailed writing about the work they were involved in during the eleven years and all the hurts Mollie endured. It goes deeply into the thinking of some of the characters, revealing their weaknesses and fears as well as some of their strengths. One might ask why a woman would tolerate all that Mollied did and still keep her sanity? And why would she tolerate all the other things he did with other women and not completely dismiss him from her life? And why would she insist he tell her all the details of everything he did, knowing she would suffer tremendously? The amazing thing is that she seems to have kept her sanity while struggling mightly within herself. Happenings brought on by themselves, the KGB, and their own organization, the CIA. There is love; there are assassinations, much intrigue, loneliness, loss of several close friends as the CIA and the KGB battle each other. It is set in Alaska, but takes place in many parts of the world. It is very detailed and is a compelling story, one worthy of much psychological investigation and thought.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For older immigrant students, school presents greater challenges with second-language proficiency than younger ones--they have more to achieve and less time to do it." With Janice Pilgreen's help you'll let them in on the Secret Language of School just in time to change their lives and narrow the achievement gap in your classroom. "Teachers may view themselves as subject-matter experts and not reading teachers," but as Janice Pilgreen notes, "Today we're all being asked to provide access to the core curriculum for all students." She shows how to plan literacy strategies into your teaching so that: comprehension skills sharpen and engagement deepens, to the benefit of content retention; ELLs learn to demonstrate what they know in a wide variety of testing contexts; all students find ways into grade-level texts and meet content standards; English learners--and everyone in class--develop proficiency with vocabulary, sequencing, inferring, cause/effect, and other aspects of academic language. Even if you've never taught reading, Jan gives you every tool you'll need: classroom structures for instruction with individuals, small-groups, or the whole class; reproducible response pages and graphic organizers that help students apply literacy strategies; "testing links" for weaving in test preparation without interrupting curricular flow. Academic language is more than merely the key to unlocking content-area texts and improving comprehension. Read English Learners and the Secret Language of School and help English learners discover the secret that will improve their performance in school and open a world of new possibilities in their lives. --Publisher's description.

Download or read book The Book of Intimate Grammar written by David Grossman and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2002-10-04 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With The Book of Intimate Grammar, leading Israeli novelist David Grossman gives us the story of the greatest and most universal tragedy, the loss of the world of childhood. At twelve, Aron Kleinfeld is the ringleader among the boys in his Jerusalem neighborhood, their inspiration in dreaming up games and adventures. But as his friends begin to mature, Aron remains imprisoned for three long years in the body of a child. While Israel inches toward the Six-Day War, and the voices of his friends change and become strange to him, Aron lives in his child body as though in a nightmare. Like a spy in enemy territory, he learns to decipher the internal codes of sexuality and desire, to understand the unyielding bureaucracy of the human body. Hurled between childhood and adulthood, between the pure and the profane, he is like a volcano of emotions and impulses. But, like his hero Houdini, Aron still struggles to escape from the trap of growing up. The Book of Intimate Grammar is about the alchemy of childhood, which transforms loneliness and fear into creation, and about the struggle to emerge an artist. Funny, painful, and passionate, it is a work of enormous intensity and beauty.
