Download or read book Sit Down and Shut Up written by Cinque Henderson and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On his very first day of school as a substitute teacher, Cinque Henderson was cursed at and openly threatened by one of his students. Not wanting trouble or any broken bones, Henderson called the hall monitor, who escorted the student to the office. But five minutes later the office sent him back with a note that read, “Ok to return to class.” That was it: no suspension, no detention, no phone call home, nothing. Sit Down and Shut Up: How Discipline Can Set Students Free is a passionate and personal analysis of Henderson's year as substitute teacher in some of America’s toughest schools. Students disrespected, yelled at, and threatened teachers, abetted by a school system and political culture that turned a willfully blind eye to the economic and social decline that created the problem. Henderson concludes that the failures of our worst schools are the result of a population in crisis: classrooms are microcosms of all our nation’s most vexing issues of race and class. The legacy and stain of race—the price of generational trauma, the cost of fatherlessness, the failures of capitalism, the false promise of meritocracy—played itself out in every single interaction Henderson had with an aggressive student, an unengaged parent, or a failed administrator. In response to the chaos he found in the classroom, Henderson proposes a recommitment to the notion that discipline—wisely and properly understood, patiently and justly administered—is the only proper route to freedom and opportunity for generations of poor youth. With applications far beyond the classroom, Henderson’s experiences offer novel insights into the pressing racial, social, and economic issues that have shaped America’s cultural landscape. Sure to ignite discussion and controversy, Sit Down and Shut Up provides a frank evaluation of the broken classrooms of America and offers a bold strategy for fixing them.

Knowing the current zombie craze, try, “When he told the ladies that he was Doctor Jekyll, they all wanted to Hyde.” When speaking about family, try, “Here’s a statement that breaks a mother’s heart: ‘Mommy, I missed the school bus.’” If singing is a topic, try, “My daughter sang a duet with our dog; it was a howling success.” That’s enough punishment for now.

Download or read book Oil Cemetery written by May Ifeoma Nwoye and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oil Cemetery is an eloquent and truth-based novel about suffering in the oil-producing Niger-Delta region of Nigeria. This powerful book shows how Nigerians cope with the environmental pollution that has accompanied the discovery of oil wealth in their community. On the one hand there is obscene wealth enjoyed by the few, while the masses live in poverty and suffer from the environmental degradation of their land. This powerful story tells the quest of those people seeking a solution to the deaths and human suffering, even as it delves into the intrigues and manipulations of the upper class. Rita, a fragile young girl whose father was a victim of the oil company, by a twist of fate is the one leading a subtle revolution that will shock the entire community. Oil Cemetery is aptly titled. Dr. May Ifeoma Nwoye is from Nigeria and studied in the United States. She was a former national vice president of Nigerian Authors (ANA). She has written other novels and a collection of short stories. "My inspiration for OIL CEMETRY came from the monumental noise, the endless tears, and the insensitive treatment of the inhabitants of oil producing areas in Nigeria, where the land that produces the wealth of a nation suffers from abject poverty and deprivation in the face of environmental degradation."

Book excerpt: So, you hate your job and you are looking for strategies to survive. Or maybe, you don't really hate your job; it's just that you frequently find your mind wandering at times - like every minute of the day. Maybe you are at your wits' end. How will you get through another week without losing your mind? Hey, don't feel bad, most people are in the same boat; studies have shown that very few people just love their jobs. So what do you do now; are you stuck being bored and unhappy at work every day for the rest of your life? It's possible, but all is not lost. Let's discuss a few strategies for successfully living through the employment blues. Not all of these strategies will work for you. Every job is different and every employee has different reasons for not getting the most out of their job. Face it, some jobs really are awful, and some employers really are as grasping, selfish, and slack-witted as those bosses in the Sunday funny papers. So make sure that you try the methods that you feel most comfortable with, and remember that a convenience clerk might have a few options that a police officer might not. In other words, your mileage may vary.

Download or read book Your Seat at the Table written by Tina Corner Stolz and published by Forbesbooks. This book was released on 2023-05-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masterminds and peer groups are the new Wild West. The promise of these groups sounds, for many, like gold on the ground, waiting for any enterprising pioneer to pick it up. Running a peer group or mastermind is indeed a brilliant way to serve your clients, your team, or your community--but it's a lonely road if you're trying to do it on your own, and it's much harder than it looks. Like most prospectors during the Gold Rush, these peer group pioneers often find themselves exhausted, disillusioned, and stuck searching for the promised "gold." In fact, most mastermind and peer groups ultimately fail in the first few months, or fail to launch at all, because facilitators find themselves in over their heads. In fact, at least 66% of those who try to launch a peer group ultimately fail. Even if a peer group is successfully launched, most facilitators struggle to keep their members engaged beyond the four-month and eleven-month inflection points. There's no industry standard for training peer group leaders, no support for ongoing professional development, and very few or hard-to-find resources to help aspiring facilitators avoid the most common mistakes that most aspiring group leaders make. At LXCouncil, we're hoping to change that, and we've gathered all of our wisdom on what it takes to run successful groups into this book. In the pages to come, you will learn the secrets of successful mastermind and peer groups and learn how to create your own thriving program.
