Book excerpt: Welcome to Crickley Creek, where dreams are encouraged—as long as they fit within the proper rules of etiquette. Sweet Charlotte Sinclair has no idea that “bless your heart” is the same as “screw you”—and she’s about to find out the hard way. After her mother’s death, Charlotte moved from free-wheeling California to her mother’s tiny hometown in the Lowcountry of South Carolina, longing to feel closer to her and searching for closure. Charlotte loves her status as a popular coffee shop owner and is enjoying her budding romance with local hero Will Rushton more than she’d like to admit. So why is she still struggling to find acceptance within the Crickley Creek community? There’s a secret nestled among the plantation homes and Spanish moss-covered oaks—a truth her mother’s arch rival will do anything to hide. And if Charlotte doesn’t learn how to overcome the damage some well-placed gossip can do to her reputation, she might lose everything, including her rose-colored memories of her mother. But is it possible for an outsider to belong in the deep South and still remain true to her own roots?

For fans of The Lunar Chronicles and Catherynne M. Valente's The Past is Red who are looking for an original twist on the genre. hr Graciela Neumann does as she's told. She cowers beneath the towering intellect of her parents, goes to school, toes the line. Except when she's connected to the virtual reality world that gives every teenager what we can only imagine-to be completely free. In the Waves, Graciela can be anyone, anywhere, anywhen. And in the real world, Graciela is drowning. Her best friend recently passed away, she's suffering from crippling panic attacks, and her only connection to life is Khaiam, who keeps trying to draw her back to reality. But how can he compete with the Waves? There, she can shed her identity and recreate it however she wants. And in that world, there's Thomas, the stunning stranger she's only ever met online, the boy with the deep, sad eyes and beautiful laugh. Thomas seems to be able to defy the rules of the Waves, and he holds secrets of his own-about the origins of his creation, about the nature of AI, and about Gracie's own past.

Book Synopsis Classroom Reading to Engage the Heart and Mind: 200+ Picture Books to Start SEL Conversations by : Nancy Boyles
Download or read book Classroom Reading to Engage the Heart and Mind: 200+ Picture Books to Start SEL Conversations written by Nancy Boyles and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2020-04-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Storybook characters and situations are perfect for launching discussions of social emotional learning—why not let them help? In picture books, well-loved characters deal with many of the same problems students face in their own lives. What better resource could there be for encouraging students to think about their actions and responses? Using classroom texts to start SEL conversations— during an interactive read- aloud or an extension of shared close- reading lessons— weaves social emotional learning organically into the fabric of an existing curriculum rather than adding a new block to the day. In a book perfect for a study group or for immediate use in the classroom, literacy educator Nancy Boyles connects the dots between the competencies identified by leaders in the SEL field with the rich content of children’s literature. More than 200 award- winning picture books are profiled along the way as she unpacks each SEL skill, sketches typical classroom situations in which teachers might not see that skill demonstrated, discusses what to look for in books that address it, and provides carefully crafted sets of questions to explore with students.

Download or read book Maker Literacy written by Lynn Pawloski and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-11-07 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes the creativity and inventiveness of the maker movement and applies that energy in a new way to help children learn across all subject areas as well as broaden their world view. Traditional library literacy programs have helped many children foster a love of reading, but to prepare this next generation of learners, this programming needs to be modified to include technology. The inherent creativity and inventiveness of the Maker Movement, embracing both classic and innovative technological activities, provides the perfect bridge to invigorate, expand, and update these programs. This alternative to conventional library literacy programming will help children learn throughout all subject areas, see additional possibilities, and make connections in the world around them. With this guide, readers can discover how to apply maker literacy to introduce connections that help children better understand that their experiences in life are interrelated—that art can be made on a 3D printer and that science and technology are an essential part of design. This holistic approach provides a myriad of creative opportunities for both teaching staff and the children they serve. A great resource for youth services librarians in public libraries, this guide to infusing library programs with technology and maker activities to motivate learning will also appeal to preschool and elementary librarians, educators, and parents.

Publishing them in this book as a collection, is my answer to myself when I began asking myself if I would ever find someone who would be able to understand these feelings? Well all I can say is Yes, I have found someone. Not just someone , I hope thousands of people now. And to their understanding, I leave this book - these feelings here with them.
