Adjusting to the challenges of growing up and navigating new social pressures and expectations can prove overwhelming. It isn't as if they get a handbook to help them through the maze. Educator, teacher, and current assistant principal Todd Jason Feltman, PhD, asked, "Why not?" If students could be given clear instructions and steps for academic success, it might raise their confidence and their optimism about the future. In his previous book, The Elementary and Middle School Student-Friendly Handbook to Navigating Success: You Need to Take Charge of Your Education, Feltman spoke directly to students. Now, he has created a new guide for teachers looking to mentor and nurture students in second through eighth grades. His advice includes advising students to complete their homework as soon as they come home from school, take small walks, exercise, and/or water breaks while completing homework, create a calendar of everything they need to do, form a consistent, healthy sleep routine, and stay free of distractions while in class. Those are just five of the 110 tried and true techniques Feltman gives you to help you encourage and inspire your students!

Book Synopsis Ensuring That No Child Is Left Behind by : J.D. Jones
Download or read book Ensuring That No Child Is Left Behind written by J.D. Jones and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2018-08-01 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “As a former college professor and school administrator, I have always had a focus on teaching and learning as well as providing a safe school environment for all. Jerry Dale Jones’s book is a strategic mentor program that is proactive in preventing many of the difficult school situations that we read about daily” (Dr. Reginald Oxendine, president and CEO, Reading Solutions Inc., Pembroke, North Carolina). “This is an important work that offers insight in creating success for students within a school setting. The information and ideas presented will be invaluable to anyone involved in education seeking a new approach for a safe school environment” (Dr. Mickey Blackwell, former middle school principal and executive director of Elementary and Middle School Principals in West Virginia). Ensuring that no child is left behind: A Strategic mentoring program for middle and high school students is not a quick fix, but if used in a thoughtful manner, it has hope for creating a culture for safe schools as well as assisting all students to persist to graduation. This strategic mentoring program has a common sense approach that is backed by many years of practical and day-to-day activities that work. Throughout my career, I have heard the term at-risk used often. I now believe we are all at risk, depending on each day that we approach. It can be a miracle or a nightmare, depending on the many unforeseen encounters that occur daily in our life.
Book Synopsis Help! My Child Is Starting Middle School! by : Jerry Parks
Download or read book Help! My Child Is Starting Middle School! written by Jerry Parks and published by Weekly Reader Teacher's Press. This book was released on 2007-08 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The transition from elementary to middle school can be a scary time for both students and their parents. Dr. Parks's book is real-life advice from a master teacher that will address most of your concerns." Tommy Hurt Principal,Georgetown Middle School. Georgetown, KY "An excellent handbook which parents of every new middle schooler should read, and reread with their son or daughter as they begin these formative and impressionable years of middle school. Herein are the keys to success."Dr. Dallas Blankenship Superintendent,Scott Co. Public Schools Parents are seldom-if ever-prepared for the enormous changes their child faces entering middle school. The sheltered, structured, and nurturing environment that is elementary school gives way to the fast-paced, organized chaos of middle school. Students often feel more thrown into, rather than eased into, the middle school world, and parents of first-time middle schoolers often feel more lost than their children. The sixth grade is the time when Mom and Dad start to feel they are losing their little one forever, and-in a very real sense-they are. Help! My Child is Starting Middle School! is merely an effort to help parents and their children get off to a successful start in middle school. Although primarily written for parents, portions of the book can be read and used by middle schoolers themselves. At the end of each chapter are presented numerous real-world middle school situations, which may very well occur. As these are read, parents should consider how they might address the situations, and then discuss with their child their thoughts, and how they might deal with alternatives. In discussing these together, both parent and middle schooler will be better prepared for what's coming in middle school.
Book Synopsis Mentoring for Success by : Diane M. Gray
Download or read book Mentoring for Success written by Diane M. Gray and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to evaluate a middle school mentoring program, Mentoring for Success, designed to reach at-risk students to help them improve academically and behaviorally. The program was developed to build protective factors that help students foster resiliency. Mentors and mentees were asked to respond to a questionnaire about the program. Responses were analyzed and emergent themes were reported. In general, the analysis showed that students benefited from participation in the program. Students who participated in the program reported improvements in attitudes towards school and better work habits. They also reported improved selfesteem and expressed positive feelings about participation in the program. Overall, they demonstrated increased resiliency. Data from this study adds to the literature about mentoring programs, with a specific focus on at-risk middle school students. While more research is needed to understand the full impact that mentoring programs have on at-risk students, these findings suggest that participation in Mentoring for Success positively impacts students' experiences.

Book Synopsis The Problem of College Readiness by : William G. Tierney
Download or read book The Problem of College Readiness written by William G. Tierney and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2015-03-30 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines how states, schools, and postsecondary institutions might best help improve college readiness and completion. Though more students are entering college, many drop out, especially those who are low income and/or of color. To address this problem, educational stakeholders have focused on the concept of college readiness, or the preparation a student needs to succeed in college. However, what it means to be college ready and how to help more students become ready are questions without clear answers. By way of historical and contemporary analyses, this book uses California as a case study to demonstrate how the state has endeavored to make postsecondary opportunity accessible for all students. The contributors also explore the challenges that remain and address what states and schools can do to improve college readiness and completion. This book adds important information to the debates and discussions around this critical topic. Caroline Sotello Viernes Turner, coeditor of Understanding Minority-Serving Institutions

Download or read book Building the Case for Health Literacy written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2018-08-26 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of health literacy has evolved from one focused on individuals to one that recognizes that health literacy is multidimensional. While communicating in a health literate manner is important for everyone, it is particularly important when communicating with those with limited health literacy who also experience more serious medication errors, higher rates of hospitalization and use of the emergency room, poor health outcomes, and increased mortality. Over the past decade, research has shown that health literacy interventions can significantly impact various areas including health care costs, outcomes, and health disparities. To understand the extent to which health literacy has been shown to be effective at contributing to the Quadruple Aim of improving the health of communities, providing better care, providing affordable care, and improving the experience of the health care team, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a public workshop on building the case for health literacy. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop, and highlights important lessons about the role of health literacy in meeting the Quadruple Aim, case studies of organizations that have adopted health literacy, and discussions among the different stakeholders involved in making the case for health literacy.

Book Synopsis Contesting Stereotypes and Creating Identities by : Andrew J. Fuligni
Download or read book Contesting Stereotypes and Creating Identities written by Andrew J. Fuligni and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 2007-05-31 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the end of legal segregation in schools, most research on educational inequality has focused on economic and other structural obstacles to the academic achievement of disadvantaged groups. But in Contesting Stereotypes and Creating Identities, a distinguished group of psychologists and social scientists argue that stereotypes about the academic potential of some minority groups remain a significant barrier to their achievement. This groundbreaking volume examines how low institutional and cultural expectations of minorities hinder their academic success, how these stereotypes are perpetuated, and the ways that minority students attempt to empower themselves by redefining their identities. The contributors to Contesting Stereotypes and Creating Identities explore issues of ethnic identity and educational inequality from a broad range of disciplinary perspectives, drawing on historical analyses, social-psychological experiments, interviews, and observation. Meagan Patterson and Rebecca Bigler show that when teachers label or segregate students according to social categories (even in subtle ways), students are more likely to rank and stereotype one another, so educators must pay attention to the implicit or unintentional ways that they emphasize group differences. Many of the contributors contest John Ogbu's theory that African Americans have developed an "oppositional culture" that devalues academic effort as a form of "acting white." Daphna Oyserman and Daniel Brickman, in their study of black and Latino youth, find evidence that strong identification with their ethnic group is actually associated with higher academic motivation among minority youth. Yet, as Julie Garcia and Jennifer Crocker find in a study of African-American female college students, the desire to disprove negative stereotypes about race and gender can lead to anxiety, low self-esteem, and excessive, self-defeating levels of effort, which impede learning and academic success. The authors call for educational institutions to diffuse these threats to minority students' identities by emphasizing that intelligence is a malleable rather than a fixed trait. Contesting Stereotypes and Creating Identities reveals the many hidden ways that educational opportunities are denied to some social groups. At the same time, this probing and wide-ranging anthology provides a fresh perspective on the creative ways that these groups challenge stereotypes and attempt to participate fully in the educational system.
