Book Synopsis Rise of the Olympians: The Complete Collection (Vols. 1-6, Complete Series) by : Belle Ward
Download or read book Rise of the Olympians: The Complete Collection (Vols. 1-6, Complete Series) written by Belle Ward and published by H.M. WARD PRESS. This book was released on 2016-11-30 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THERE ARE NO MINOR GODS Remember the Greek myths you assumed were fiction? The old gods that you thought were just someone's imagination? You were wrong. They've been with us the whole time, fighting battles we didn't even know existed, and now they've returned. Lilah Jones is officially unremarkable. She thinks this birthday will be the same as all the others, with the exception of the dream. No, it was a nightmare. Every second of it felt so real that it left her heart racing and her skin covered in cold sweat. As hard as she tries, Lilah can't forget it. Every eerie word is charred into her mind-the father of monsters is rising. The Olympians are reuniting, preparing to fight the most dangerous battle they've ever faced. Each of the thirteen gods knows exactly who they are and how they fit in-except Lilah. If she doesn't figure out who she is and her role in this battle, there's no way she'll survive. It's clear the myth has changed this time, and if the story changes, then the ending is up for grabs. Winning isn't a given this time. If the Olympians don't work together and figure out why Lilah has been added to their numbers, then they could lose the battle, and the world will perish with them. The entire RISE OF THE OLYMPIANS series (volumes 1-6), including the series finale, is included with this boxed set. Great for boys and girls, early readers and up. "A swicked adventure that any Percy Jackson fan will love. Read it now! You won't be sorry." -H.M. Ward, New York Times bestselling author.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little gods, big personalities! This brand-new series follows little versions of the Greek gods who are at a camp to learn how to control their powers and use them properly--as well as learn to get along with one another. Zeus is living with his parents, Kronos and Rhea, and he's starting to show his abilities, but his lightning is out of control! Every time he sneezes or gets mad, or is even just plain bored, his lightning shoots out. He tries to keep it under wraps most of the time, but he can't help it, and it causes such a ruckus that his parents decide that it's time he learns to properly use his powers. So they send him to Eureka, a camp where little gods learn to use and control their supernatural abilities. He's excited to be able to learn to use his powers here, but he's also nervous about going and meeting all the other gods. Apollo and Ares in particular seem very strong (and they let him know it), but he finds friends in the calm and wise Athena and the wisecracking Hermes. But after some trouble with classes, he starts to get discouraged. Will he be able to control his powers with the help of his friends?
Book Synopsis Strategies to Support Struggling Adolescent Readers, Grades 6-12 by : Katherine S. McKnight
Download or read book Strategies to Support Struggling Adolescent Readers, Grades 6-12 written by Katherine S. McKnight and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-03-02 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When students are in elementary school, a teacher who has expertise in teaching the fundamentals of reading instructs them. At the middle and high school level that stops – and the timing could not be worse. The literacy demands increase exponentially, yet typically schools do not teach adolescents how to successfully read the increasingly difficult materials they encounter throughout their day. As the rigor increases in their classes, student coping skills become less effective. Consequently, the achievement gap becomes wider and more difficult to close during the adolescent years. When it comes time to prescribe an intervention, middle and high school teachers are hitting a wall. Decoding and comprehension materials are often presented at an elementary level. The students feel bad enough that they struggle with reading; assigned ‘baby work’ increases the stigma. This book addresses the need for 6-12 teachers to have appropriate literacy intervention materials to use with struggling adolescent readers. This book will also help teachers learn how to support any adolescent reader—struggling or not—when they encounter challenging text. The book features two strands: decoding and comprehension. Each strand contains lessons, materials, a difficulty dial, tips for implementation and student samples.

Book Synopsis "Throw the book away" by : Amie A. Doughty
Download or read book "Throw the book away" written by Amie A. Doughty and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-05-21 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children's literature is an excellent way to educate children, on everything from social behavior and beliefs to attitudes toward education itself. A major aspect of children's literature is the importance of books and reading. Books represent adult authority. This book examines the role that books, reading and writing play in children's fantasy fiction, from books that act as artifacts of power (The Abhorsen Trilogy, The Spiderwick Chronicles, Harry Potter) to interactive books (The Neverending Story, Malice, Inkheart) to books with character-writers (Percy Jackson, Captain Underpants). The author finds that although books and reading often play a prominent role in fantasy for children, the majority of young protagonists gain self-sufficiency not by reading but specifically by moving beyond books and reading.
