Download or read book Using Art to Teach Writing Traits written by Jennifer Klein and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-11-23 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our purpose for writing this book is so that children can become better communicators by expressing their thoughts, feelings and ideas. The ability to communicate is a universal goal in society. If children can better communicate in their speaking and writing, clearer more precise messages will be received, and communication around the world will be strengthened. The writing traits are a way for teachers and children to discuss and analyze written pieces, for strengths and needs, in order communicate their thoughts and expresses their ideas through writing in a way that touches their audience. Adding art into this established process will allow children to learn about the writing traits in a text-free environment before applying the traits to their own writing. Children will learn how artists communicate their thoughts, feelings and ideas, and how the traits that writers use are similar to the traits that artists use in order to better communicate, express themselves, and process the world around them. In addition, we will discuss the revision and editing process. Art is an exciting and engaging subject for students. This book will allow children to transfer their knowledge of how artists use the traits, to how writers use the traits, and then to how they can utilize the traits in their own writing, to better communicate with their audience and process the world around them.

Book excerpt: It’s a writer’s job to create compelling characters who can withstand life’s fallout without giving up. But building authentic, memorable heroes is no easy task.

Download or read book The 7 Traits of Talented Teachers written by Akira Maria LeBlanc and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-07-03 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 7 Traits of Talented Teachers details essential characteristics of great classroom teachers. Many of the characteristics, or traits, have been "passed down" from earlier educators to those who serve our classrooms today. Qualities such as effective relationship-building, attention to student culture and biography, and the generation of fervor for education, constitute but a few of the traits that talented teachers possess. Through the author's personal reflection of her own educator-ancestors, she enlightens readers with the idealistic look of the talented teacher and encourages educational practitioners to become a part of this elite group for the sake of youth. Through the metaphor of genetics, The 7 Traits highlights the notion of today's teachers inheriting the professional DNA of the educators that came before them and, subsequently, of exhibiting the characteristics of their pedagogical gifts and talents with their own students. This work illuminates an inheritance from a lineage of educators whose purpose to provide above-average educational experiences for their students shaped the next generation of professionals, some of whom followed their lead and became talented teachers.
