Book Synopsis It Won't Be Easy by : Tom Rademacher
Download or read book It Won't Be Easy written by Tom Rademacher and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2017-04-25 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tom Rademacher wishes someone had handed him this sort of book along with his teaching degree: a clear-eyed, frank, boots-on-the ground account of what he was getting into. But first he had to write it. And as 2014’s Minnesota Teacher of the Year, Rademacher knows what he’s talking about. Less a how-to manual than a tribute to an impossible and impossibly rewarding profession, It Won’t Be Easy captures the experience of teaching in all its messy glory. The book follows a year of teaching, with each chapter tackling a different aspect of the job. Pulling no punches (and resisting no punch lines), he writes about establishing yourself in a new building; teaching meaningful classes, keeping students a priority; investigating how race, gender, and identity affect your work; and why it’s a good idea to keep an extra pair of pants at school. Along the way he answers the inevitable and the unanticipated questions, from what to do with Google to how to tell if you’re really a terrible teacher, to why “Keep your head down” might well be the worst advice for a new teacher. Though directed at prospective and newer teachers, It Won’t Be Easy is mercifully short on jargon and long on practical wisdom, accessible to anyone—teacher, student, parent, pundit—who is interested in a behind-the-curtain look at teaching and willing to understand that, while there are no simple answers, there is power in learning to ask the right questions.

Book Synopsis Quiet Desperation by : Gerald W. Neal
Download or read book Quiet Desperation written by Gerald W. Neal and published by Hamilton Books. This book was released on 2008-04-22 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With standardized testing and predetermined subgroups garnering the attention of educational leaders, abused and neglected children have fallen deeper into the crevice of the system. For years these children have been ignored, save the obvious, visible bruises or child-initiated confessions. Because researching children is difficult without parental consent, it is nearly impossible to expose this problem with any level of legitimacy. By combining research from scientific research and the humanities, autobiographical flashbacks fuse with narratives that vividly detail the author's disturbing encounters with abused children as a school administrator. The effect is the realization that public schools unknowingly feed on weaker children beneath the awning of accountability.

Book Synopsis Quiet Phoenix 2: From Failure to Fulfilment: A Memoir of an Introverted Child by : Prasenjeet Kumar
Download or read book Quiet Phoenix 2: From Failure to Fulfilment: A Memoir of an Introverted Child written by Prasenjeet Kumar and published by http://www.publishwithprasen.com. This book was released on 2015-04-20 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrating The Quiet Child: A Must Read For Every Parent, Teacher, Mentor, Sports Coach, Who Is Interested In Raising The Self-esteem of Kids And Teens From Prasenjeet Kumar, the author of Quiet Phoenix, the Amazon #1 Bestseller, comes a sequel, and a biography for kids aged 9-12 years, that no one who deals with introverted children should miss. The underlying theme of the book is that just as a Phoenix Bird is hardwired to be reborn from the ashes of her ancestors, her tears are meant to cure wounds and she symbolises undying hope and optimism, so is your Quiet child built for persistence, creativity, self-discipline, and for displaying a knack for self-learning, high emotional intelligence and an impeccable sense of moral responsibility. ˃˃˃ Instead of cherishing such rare traits Introverts are sadly often misunderstood by almost every one. * Parents worry if their children prefer spending time in solitude, probably day dreaming. * Teachers presume that if a child hesitates to answer questions, she must be having some kind of learning or even social disability. * Quiet Children have difficulties in making friends, with their classmates seeing them as “weird”, “rude” or “arrogant”. * They are seen as “over” sensitive to mean comments or bullying. * They appear to lack aggression or as some say 'the will to fight back’. * Overall, introverted children seem to be more flustered about almost every facet of life in noisy and large Public Schools. ˃˃˃ Any advice that Quiet children should be more 'outgoing’, 'sociable’ and 'active’ seems to be counter-productive. Any aggressive follow up on this advice often results in your Quiet child losing her self-esteem, forcing her to become even more withdrawn. ˃˃˃ With fables, stories and real incidents from the author’s own childhood, “Quiet Phoenix 2: From Failure to Fulfilment” is a memoir for teens and kids that Reiterates that introvert Children being asked to behave in a more extroverted fashion is like asking a young Phoenix bird to behave like an Eagle. Every child is born with some unique traits. The challenge is: how parents, teachers and friends can recognize, nurture and enhance those powers so that every child, quiet or loquacious, becomes a winner. ˃˃˃ “Quiet Phoenix 2: From Failure to Fulfilment” sincerely intends to help everyone dealing with ‘Quiet Children’ to cherish and celebrate for what they are. And to help them rise above everything; to lead them towards a path of happiness leaving behind all old memories of pain and isolation; and to turn them into life’s winners. Just like the Phoenix rising from the ashes. ˃˃˃ With real life characters like Ms. Brownie Points, Mr. Noisy Ferrari and Ms. Pencil Snatcher, this biography for teens and kids is intended for everyone--a parent, teacher, or sports Coach. Who wants to understand how to harness the powers of Quiet children in an extroverted world. And if you are an introvert adult, you may find this book useful in understanding yourself, your past and what you want out of life in the future. So what are you waiting for?
