Download or read book Haunted written by E. Jay Gilbert and published by Bonnier Zaffre Ltd.. This book was released on 2024-09-12 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all know the same ghosts: it's simply a question of how doggedly they haunt us. Part-chilling tale, part-memoir, part-cultural exploration, Haunted: Ghost Stories and Their Afterlives takes us through some of the most chilling and enduring ghost stories, and discusses what they reveal about the listener, the teller and the times we live in. E. Jay Gilbert has been collecting tales of the supernatural from her local area (a small village outside of Newcastle) for years and what surprised her most is how universal those are: not only in terms of recurring spectres that haunt us the world over (I'm looking at you, White Ladies), but also how similar our experience of ghost-telling is, wherever we grew up. The result is a book which explores more widely the ghosts of the British Isles and how they have endured and changed through the ages: how they reflect the communities in which they originate, and how they are similar to and different from similar stories from across the world. Haunted doesn't just thrill with the tales of the inexplicable, but also asks why are we so fascinated by ghost stories and what do they tell us about the community and people who cultivate them. Why are some tropes universal, while others are very much unique to the place they haunt? Do we actually care about the identity of the ghost? Or are we more concerned about how the alleged sighting made us feel? Aimed at both believers and sceptics, it's not only for those who are looking to be frightened a little, but also for those interested in the psychology and history of the long tradition of supernatural storytelling.

This book was released on 2024-02-28 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artificial intelligence (AI) undoubtedly sparks debate among teachers. Questions arise about the trajectory of this new technology: where will it take us?; how will we differentiate between student-authored work and AI-generated content?; what impact will it have on the dynamics of learning and teaching within schools? These are all crucial topics for discussion, yet AI has already become an integral part of our reality, and Gemma Clark firmly believes that embracing its potential is in our best interests. In an era defined by technological advancements, Artificial Intelligence in the Primary Classroom stands as an indispensable resource that holds the key to transforming teaching and learning. For educators burdened by bureaucratic tasks that divert precious time from actual teaching, this book offers a lifeline. It showcases how AI-powered tools can alleviate administrative burdens, enabling teachers to focus more on crafting personalised and imaginative lessons that resonate with young minds. From automating report-writing processes to facilitating content creation, the book imparts tangible methods to streamline workflows and elevate teaching quality. Other examples include: Spelling Lessons: Save time when planning your spelling lessons by using AI to automatically generate a comprehensive list of phonemes or 'sounds suitable for teaching young children.' Mindfulness in the Classroom: If you are interested in incorporating mindfulness games and activities to assist children in relaxation and focus, AI can provide valuable suggestions for fostering pupil (and staff) wellbeing. PE Lessons: You don't have to be an expert in sport to teach PE. Whether it's tennis, football, rugby or running, AI can offer suggestions for activities, warm-ups and cool-downs to use in your PE lessons. Art Lessons: AI can be an excellent resource for planning art lessons, especially when seeking suggestions to emphasize one of the eight elements, such as line, shape, form, colour, value, texture, space, and value. Maths Lessons: As with spelling, AI can significantly reduce the time spent on creating maths questions and simplify the process of differentiation. Artificial Intelligence in the Primary Classroom is filled with practical strategies, engaging activities and useful tips and tricks that will save teachers time and energy as well as transferrable lesson plans with step-by-step instructions. Backed up by real-world examples throughout, this book empowers teachers to embrace AI as a tool in fostering enhanced learning experiences, while also reclaiming invaluable time for pedagogical creativity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mount Angus is a small Wisconsin town that would be boring if not for its many over-the-top holiday festivals. Kiko Cooper is a local owner of the niche egg-themed store Yolks on You. Dominic Grady is a tourist who finds himself suddenly single while on vacation. What starts with a bad break up quickly spirals into new romance, intrigue, and murder. Neither Kiko nor Dom can resist the pull of a good mystery any more than they can resist the attraction they feel for each other. Surprising everyone in town, they make a cute couple, and a decent investigative team, too. Which is a good thing, because Mount Angus appears to have a small murder problem ... Contains the stories: Shell Shocked: When Dominic agreed to join his boyfriend for a weekend away at the annual Eggstravaganza in small town Wisconsin, he was expecting a boring experience. He was not expecting to discover his boyfriend had been cheating on him. He was not expecting to fall for Kiko, owner of the niche shop Yolks on You. And he certainly wasn’t expecting an exploding cow to drop him in the middle of a deadly mystery. Egg Whites and Blue: Kiko and Dom are still getting used to each other, and with Mount Angus’ Knee High 4th of July Festival approaching, they anticipate spending quality time together, if only for a weekend. But with the arrival of Kiko’s ex and the discovery of a murdered body, they are drawn into another small-town mystery where dark secrets and a generous serving of danger could very well get them killed. Deal with the Deviled Eggs: After a chaos-filled summer, Kiko and Dom are ready to ease into a more laid back autumn and really put in some quality time together. But with an old friend of Dom's crashing with them and causing tension and a sudden spree of murders, this could either be a Halloween for Kiko and Dom to remember, or their very last. Egg the Halls: When local artist Cat asks Kiko and Dom to solve her vandalism problem, the two are only too happy for the distraction from holiday visitors. But when the property damage escalates to threats on Kiko's life, things get more serious than they'd hoped, and if they can't get to the bottom of the family drama fast, Kiko might never be home for the holidays again. Eggs and Kisses: The annual Be Mount Valentine Heartstival has the whole town of Mount Angus on the lookout for relationship drama, and this year it seems everyone's most interested in whether Kiko and Dom are going to tie the knot. When a body is found rolled in a rug, though, it's up to the couple to unravel a deadly mystery before the celebration ends in more than just bruised egos and broken hearts.

Download or read book Halloween Nation written by Lesley Pratt Bannatyne and published by Pelican Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04-05 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A sophisticated yet playful celebration of all things macabre, morbid and marvelous . . . Bannatyne makes a great case for celebrating Halloween everyday, all year long. . . . It's an energetic, thorough and breathless salute to everyone's favorite horror holiday." -Chris Alexander, editor in chief, Fangoria magazine "No one else has delved so deeply-and lovingly-into the mysteries of Halloween." -Dr. Jeanne Keyes Youngson, president and founder, the Vampire Empire It took two years of investigative work for Halloween authority Lesley Pratt Bannatyne to add a fifth book to her collection. Traveling across the country, she visited and talked with fanatics and fang makers, professional haunters, registered mediums, psychologists, and Halloween enthusiasts ranging from NPR's Garrison Keillor to Incubus guitarist Mike Einziger and The Simpsons' "Treehouse of Horror" writer Mike Reiss to find out what the increasingly popular holiday means to people and how they celebrate it. Through the course of her research, Bannatyne attended a seance for Houdini, a Samhain ritual gathering, a World Zombie Day event, and the Haunted Attraction National Tradeshow and Convention (HAuNTcon). Diving right into the heart of how fear turned into a form of entertainment, she asks hard-hitting questions: What kind of community does twenty-first-century Halloween create? Why are we so afraid of dead bodies? In the battle between Christmas and Halloween fought by Zombie Clauses, who deserves to win?

And with the other Founders preoccupied by their tangled alliances and fraying relationships, only May Hawthorne seems to realize the danger. But saving the town she loves means seeking aid from the person her family despises most—her father, Ezra Bishop. May's father isn't the only newcomer in town—Isaac Sullivan's older brother has also returned, seeking forgiveness for the role he played in Isaac's troubled past. But Isaac isn't ready to let go of his family's history, especially when that history might hold the key that he and Violet Saunders need to destroy the Gray and the monster within it.

With the veil between the Gray and the town growing ever thinner, the Founder descendants must put their grievances with one another aside to stop the corruption and kill the Beast once and for all. But the monster they truly need to slay may never been the Beast . . .
