Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High school football has been an institution in metro Detroit since the day the assembly line changed America. From the game's inception at the prep level in the early 1900s to the annual Thanksgiving Day games that would make or break a school's season, prep football has been a rite of passage for players, parents, coaches, and fans alike in Detroit since after World War II. Detroit's high schools were massed and assembled from the immigrant pockets that carved out city and suburban landscapes. The one constant in all these cultural melting pots was high school football. For parents and neighbors of the marching bands, cheerleaders, and players, football season in the golden age of high school sports was an all-community event. Towns shuttered and time stopped for nine Fridays in the fall.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few cities can claim a hardwood heritage like that found in metro Detroit. Metro Detroit has been the epicenter for cataclysmic change in the past 60 years that no other major American city has suffered, but the one constant among so much upheaval is a passionate following afforded high school basketball. The rise and fall of the automotive industry, the Motown record label's emergence and eventual relocation, social and racial unrest, and the polarization of one of America's great cities has not slowed the love and passion Detroiters-city and suburban dwellers alike-share for prep basketball.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The second edition of this best-selling book offers the tools teachers need to get started with an innovative approach to teaching history, one that develops literacy and higher-order thinking skills, connects the past to students' lives today, and meets state and national standards. The author provides an introductory unit to build a trustful classroom climate; over 70 primary sources (including a dozen new ones) organized into six thematic units, each structured around an essential question from U.S. history; and a final unit focusing on periodization and chronology. As students analyze carefully excerpted documents-speeches by presidents and protesters, Supreme Court cases, political cartoons-they build an understanding of how diverse historical figures have approached key issues. At the same time, students learn to participate in civic debates and develop their own views on what it means to be a 21st-century American. Each unit connects to current events, and dynamic classroom activities make history come alive. In addition to the documents themselves, this teaching manual provides strategies to assess student learning; mini-lectures designed to introduce documents; activities to help students process, display, and integrate their learning; guidance to help teachers create their own units, and more"--

Book Synopsis Metro by : Associate Pro-Vice Chancellor and Professor Paula Baron
Download or read book Metro written by Associate Pro-Vice Chancellor and Professor Paula Baron and published by . This book was released on 2012-10-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freedom, choice and responsibility was the mantra of Metro High School-the School Without Walls-a bold experiment by the Chicago Public Schools that operated from 1970-1991. This was a far cry from the test driven standardized high school of today. And while Metro is long gone, the stories here suggest it may still offer some food for thought for re-evaluating high schools today. Metro was designed to draw students from all over the city and to seek new ways to involve students in their own education and to utilize the many facets of this very vibrant city. Students took classes at Metro's Loop headquarters but also at such varied locations as the Art Institute of Chicago, Lincoln Park Zoo, Shedd Aquarium, Second City Theater and Northeastern Illinois' Center for Inner City Studies. They travelled throughout the city to learn from the people of Chicago.

Book excerpt: Washington DC isn't celebrated for basketball. But the Washington area stands second to none in its contributions to the game. Countless figures who have had a significant impact on the sport over the years have roots in the region, including E.B. Henderson, the first African-American certified to teach physical education in public schools in the United States and Earl Lloyd, the first African-American to take the court in an actual NBA game. The District of Columbia's Spingarn High School produced two players - Elgin Baylor and Dave Bing - that are recognized among the NBA's 50 greatest at the League's 50th anniversary celebration. No other high school in the country can make that claim. These figures and many others who have been a part of Washington's basketball past are chronicled in this book, the first-ever comprehensive look at the great high school players, teams and accomplishments in the DC metropolitan area. Based on more than 150 interviews, The Capital of Basketball is first and foremost a book about basketball. But in discussing the trends and evolution of the game, the books also uncovers the turmoil in the lives of the players and area residents as they dealt with issues such as prejudice, education, politics, and the ways the area has changed through the years.

Book Synopsis Coaching with P. R. I. D. E. by : Nick Metrokotsas
Download or read book Coaching with P. R. I. D. E. written by Nick Metrokotsas and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a work of great significance because of the character building program it puts forth. Coach Metrokotsas has promoted his character building program for 54 years - a program he calls P.R.I.D.E., which is an acronym for 5 words; P for Perseverance; R for Respect; I for Integrity; D for Desire; and E for Enthusiasm. He drives these fundamental virtues home just as hard and as often as he drives home the fundamentals of blocking and tackling. Coach Metrokotsas teaches coaches and leaders to understand that they have a responsibility greater than teaching the fundamentals of their game or their business - they need to start with character building. Coaching with P.R.I.D.E. is a step-by-step process that does not have to be used solely by coaches or in a sports arena. There's no reason why you can't build character in your sales force, your employees, or any other program outside of sports that has a goal to win or succeed. The starting point is to ask your team, your players, or your employees one direct question: "How Badly Do You Want To Win?" From the first day you ask that question and your team members answer you, that's when character building through the P.R.I.D.E. Program can begin.
Book Synopsis Have Fun in Burma by : Rosalie Metro
Download or read book Have Fun in Burma written by Rosalie Metro and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-27 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adela Frost wants to do something with her life. When a chance encounter and a haunting dream steer her toward distant Burma, she decides to spend the summer after high school volunteering in a Buddhist monastery. Adela finds fresh confidence as she immerses herself in her new environment, teaching English to the monks and studying meditation with the wise abbot. Then there's her secret romance with Thiha, an ex-political prisoner with a shadowy past. But when some of the monks express support for the persecution of the country's Rohingya Muslim minority, Adela glimpses the turmoil that lies beneath Burma's tranquil surface. While investigating the country's complex history, she becomes determined to help stop communal violence. With Thiha's assistance, she concocts a scheme that quickly spirals out of control. Adela must decide whether to back down or double down, while protecting those she cares about from the backlash of Buddhist and Muslim extremists. Set against the backdrop of Burma's fractured transition to democracy, this coming-of-age story weaves critiques of "voluntourism" and humanitarian intervention into a young woman's quest for connection across cultural boundaries. This work of literary fiction will fascinate Southeast Asia buffs and anyone interested in places where the truth is bitterly contested territory.
Book Synopsis The Resegregation of Schools by : Jamel K. Donnor
Download or read book The Resegregation of Schools written by Jamel K. Donnor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-07 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Access to a quality education remains the primary mechanism for improving one’s life chances in the United States, and for children of color, a “good education” is particularly linked to their individual and collective well-being. Despite the popular perception that America is in a “post-racial” epoch, opportunities to access quality learning environments and human development resources remain determined according to race, class, gender, and ability. Taking a more nuanced approach to race and the resegregation of the American school system, this volume examines how and why the education quality for the majority of students of color in America remains fundamentally unequal.
