This book was released on 2016-06-19 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DO YOU WANT YOUR CHILDREN TO SUCCEED? I have three children who are still in school, and like you, I also want my children to succeed in life. Our children's success is what inspired me to write this book. Research shows that the more vocabulary words an elementary school student knows, the more likely he or she is to do well in middle and high school. Research also shows that there is a direct link between a student's vocabulary and their reading comprehension skills. Consequently, the more words elementary school students learn, the better readers they will be, and the more likely they will be good students in high school and successful as adults. I became concerned when my daughter began to show difficulty with reading comprehension. Her biggest problem appeared to be not knowing the meaning of many important words in her reading material. In speaking with my daughter's teacher I was shocked and disturbed to learn that with the new Common Core requirements, teachers don't have the time to teach the definitions of words like they used to. Instead, they are forced to concentrate on spelling and teaching a limited number of definitions. So I began to look for a way that parents can help their children learn the definitions of words so that reading is fun . 4th Grade Vocabulary Building Crossword Puzzles is the result.

Download or read book Twelve Across written by Barbara Delinsky and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2023-06-20 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A delightful puzzle of a romance from the New York Times–bestselling author who “knows the human heart and its immense capacity to love and to believe” (Observer-Reporter, Washington, Pennsylvania). When crossword puzzle creator Leah Gates loses her Manhattan apartment, her friend, Victoria Lesser, offers her a place to stay. Sure, it’s a remote cabin in middle-of-nowhere, New Hampshire, but it’s a lifesaver for Leah. There’s no reason for her to question Victoria’s generosity—until she arrives during a rainstorm to find the small lodge burned down and in ruins. With nowhere else to turn, Leah makes her way to the closest neighbor, an outdoorsman named Garrick Rodenhiser. Far from being a grizzly, old mountain man, Garrick is extraordinarily handsome—and kind enough to take in a bedraggled stranger for the night. Before long, the two independent, solitary souls find themselves entwined in each other’s lives and . . . not hating it, even when they realize they’re just pawns in one of Victoria’s matchmaking games. Still, there are secrets to be spilled that might bring their cozy confinement to an end—and stop their fresh start in its tracks . . . Praise for Barbara Delinsky “One of today’s quintessential authors of contemporary fiction . . . Delinsky is a joy to read . . . Women’s fiction at its very finest.” —Romantic Times “[An author] of sensitivity and style.” —Publishers Weekly “When you care enough to read the very best, the name of Barbara Delinsky should come immediately to mind . . . One of the few writers . . . who still writes a great love story, Ms. Delinsky is truly an author for all seasons.” —Rave Reviews
