Book excerpt: "I dreamed again of Fibblestax, sitting among his books, Peering into the candlelight with a calm, thoughtful look. For he's the one who gives a name to every single thing. If not for him we couldn't talk. Or read, or write, or sing..." So begins the delightful fable of Fibblestax, and how he came to be the one who names everything. He has to battle the tricky, red-faced Carr, a man who "gives terrible names to wonderful things." The mayor of their town gives them five things to name, and the final one, "that very strange feeling, a dreamy kind of cheer/the feeling that makes you feel so good when a special friend is near" stumps Carr. But, Fibblestax knows that feeling... With soft, intricately detailed illustrations to accompany the musical text, this book will surely become a special favorite for children of all ages.

Book Synopsis Lesson Plans for Teaching Writing by : Chris Jennings Dixon
Download or read book Lesson Plans for Teaching Writing written by Chris Jennings Dixon and published by National Council of Teachers of English (Ncte). This book was released on 2007 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do students often graduate from high school unprepared for college writing? And what can we do about it? These are the questions that a group of classroom teachers set out to explore. Over the course of seven years, a group of middle, high school, college, and university teachers participated in a federally funded writing coalition project to implement innovative approaches to teaching writing. Together they developed this series of lesson plans designed to make writing both fun and an integral part of diverse curricula. "Practical" is the recurrent motif of each teaching strategy. Developed by real teachers in real classrooms, the lessons are grouped into seven categories: writing process, portfolios, literature, research, grammar, writing on demand, and media. Each lesson follows a standard format that includes purpose of the activity; necessary preparation; required props and materials; process and procedure for implementation; instructional pointers and/or possible pitfalls; and reflections from the teacher that provide "behind the scenes" insights.

Download or read book Stir My Soul written by Roxie Kelley and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-17 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautifully illustrated collection of 100 easy-to-prepare recipes laced with thoughtful reflections on cooking and life. Have you ever noticed how the words that describe the cooking process also resonate in a more meaningful way to describe the very act of living? Stirring, blending, mixing, and measuring are terms that apply to how we live as well as how we cook. Bestselling cookbook author Roxie Kelley takes this correlation to heart and pairs her observations on life in and outside the kitchen with Kathleen Taylor’s distinctive bright, whimsical folk artwork inside Stir My Soul. From a Rustic Vegetable Breakfast Bake and Chunky Chicken Salad Sandwiches to Sweet and Sour Pork Chops, White Cheddar Potato Pancakes, and Roxie’s Favorite One Bowl Chocolate Chip Cookies, Stir My Soul presents more than 100 recipes alongside definitions of cooking terms and how those words translate to life experiences. As Roxie explains, “The words that describe actions required in cooking are the same ones that make up daily life: my family and friends are part of my “fold,” I “measure” my words when speaking to my children . . . all these life activities, like good recipes, lead to a satisfying result just like a completed dish or favorite dessert.” Consider Stir My Soul a coming to terms with terms, if you will—a collection of recipes certain to nourish your body and stir your soul.
