Book Synopsis The Book of Pitch Exploration by : John M. Feierabend
Download or read book The Book of Pitch Exploration written by John M. Feierabend and published by GIA Publications. This book was released on 2004-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The imaginative and effective activities in this book invite children to discover the sounds they can make with their voices. Not only are the activities fun, they also serve as excellent vocal warm-ups for singing. Children are taught that just as an athlete warms up various muscles before competing, singers must warm up their vocal muscles in order to be able to sing with flexibility. Young singers learn to understand the range of sounds their own voices can make, how they can more effectively control those sounds, and ultimately sing in tune and with feeling.
Book Synopsis Invitation to Draw by : Jean Van't Hul
Download or read book Invitation to Draw written by Jean Van't Hul and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Help children draw and think more creatively by inspiring them with interesting and challenging art prompts and questions. Invitation to Draw offers 99 open-ended drawing prompts, each one proposing a question to investigate that encourages children to free associate and problem solve. The perforated pages make it easy to tear out prompts for on-the-go activities or allowing multiple kids to draw at the same time. A blank cake provides the chance to decorate a dream confection, an empty house inspires stories about who lives there, and a grid of triangles supplies the chance to explore abstract art. What might be hiding in that tree? What sort of robot can you design? The possibilities are endless! Drawing prompts inspire and encourage kids to think and draw differently, and sometimes more creatively, than they might when faced with a blank page. By offering constraints such as a pair of eyes or an empty car and asking a question, children begin thinking about the possibilities and answering the question in their heads even before they put pen (or marker or crayon!) to paper. And through the act of drawing and observing the drawing unfold, the brain continues to think and problem solve, opening up all kinds of creative possibilities around that specific idea.

Book Synopsis The Steinitz Papers by : William Steinitz
Download or read book The Steinitz Papers written by William Steinitz and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2002-08-27 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long known as one of the greatest chess masters of the nineteenth century, William Steinitz is recognized as the first world champion. More exactly (and thanks to the efforts of the author of this book) he has been officially acknowledged as the first American world chess champion. Luckily for chess scholars, many letters and postcards survive written by Steinitz and his associates, friends and foes. After years of research, numerous personal contacts with people on three continents, and unflagging efforts to acquire any and all known letters to and from Steinitz, the author here presents in their own words a remarkable account of Steinitz and his contemporaries in the chess world of over a century ago. Notable personalities that write or are written about include Lasker, Pillsbury, Zukertort, Bird, Blackburne, Janowski, Tschigorin and Winawer. Each original letter, postcard, scrapbook item, newspaper or chess magazine article or other writing (including three lengthily-negotiated match play agreements) is described along with details of location, ownership, and circumstances of discovery. It is then printed, nearly always in full, in English (many translated from their original German by Landsberger). The author provides a running commentary on the letters and documents, which are generally chronological in arrangement, putting them in context and remarking the significance of certain points made in them. A biographical dictionary at the back of the book offers information about all the many figures who received, sent, or were mentioned in the documents or letters. Some of the games accompanying some of the letters are annotated by modern grandmaster Andy Soltis (Steinitz’s annotations and insights also accompany some). Each game is illustrated. Facsimiles of some of the letters are provided.

Book Synopsis Whispers from the Wild an Invitation by : Susan B. Eirich, Ph.D.
Download or read book Whispers from the Wild an Invitation written by Susan B. Eirich, Ph.D. and published by Susan B. Eirich. This book was released on 2023-10-25 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founded in 2000, Earthfire Institute is a sanctuary for rescued wildlife native to the Yellowstone to Yukon Wildlife Corridor. Living with these wild animals over their lifetimes, founder and Executive Director Susan B. Eirich, Ph.D. vividly illuminates the incredible connection of these animals to each other and to the humans who care for them. Through inspirational storytelling, Susan shares her experiences with these animals, in play, in love, and through their passing. From a wolf who maneuvered her way into cabin-living, to a developmentally delayed bear who deeply moved all who met him, these are the stories of the animals of Earthfire–a taste of the laughter, joy and love they brought, and the insights they offered. Filled with hundreds of stunning color photographs and exclusive artwork, Whispers from the Wild is an immersive experience into the world of wild animals. “These stories are rememberings of what humans and the other living beings who came before us once knew, that we share this gift of Earth and life, and that we must care for each other. They are moments of realization, efforts toward listening and speaking in ways we have all inherited yet forgotten, turned away from. They are connections between hearts and minds and voices across the divisions that “civilization” has imposed on our imaginations of what is real, human and animal. They are stories of loving, of being loved, and they open us to what is necessary at this crucial time.” —Stan Rushworth, author of Going to Water: The Journal of Beginning Rain; Diaspora’s Children; and co-editor with Dahr Jamail of We Are The Middle Of Forever: Indigenous Voices From Turtle Island On The Changing Earth
Book Synopsis The Development of Play by : David Cohen
Download or read book The Development of Play written by David Cohen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-10-19 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Play is an important part of our development. In playing, we learn to move, think, speak and imagine, as well as cope with other people. This second edition of The Development of Play addresses these key functions that play serves. David Cohen examines how children play with objects, with language, and most importantly, with each other and their parents. He goes on to ask why we stop playing, and looks at adult games. The Development of Play argues that psychology has accepted too uncritically the Victorian opposition of work and play, and argues that adults can learn to play more. With its extensive account of recent work in this area, this book is the most up-to-date work on the importance of play and will be of interest to child psychologists, developmental psychologists, and a wide number of professionals involved with children.
Book Synopsis Profiles of Play by : Saralea E. Chazan
Download or read book Profiles of Play written by Saralea E. Chazan and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a leading child psychologist, this clearly written and practical book provides a template for interpreting change and meaning in children's lives through their play activity. It shows how each child's pattern of play has a distinct profile of measurable features. These can be identified - and can be used to assess the child's development. The processes of change that a child goes through and the different kinds of play profiles are clearly illustrated with examples from real life. This will be a useful resource for all professionals who work with children and are looking to support their development through a deeper understanding of their inner experiences, including family therapists, educational psychologists, special needs teachers, play therapists and child care social workers.
Book Synopsis A Psychological Perspective on Joy and Emotional Fulfillment by : Chris Meadows
Download or read book A Psychological Perspective on Joy and Emotional Fulfillment written by Chris Meadows and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the history of psychology, there have been full investigations of discrete emotions (particularly negative ones) and a recent wealth of books on happiness, but few exist on the emotion of joy. This book takes a unique psychological approach to understanding this powerful emotion and provides a framework within which the study of human joy and other related positive fulfillment experiences can fit in a meaningful schema. A key feature of this book is its development of an experiential phenomenology of joy. This phenomenology is based on more than three hundred descriptions of joy experiences recounted by subjects in an empirical study executed by the author. Types of joy experiences are examined, such as excited vs. serene joy, anticipatory vs. completed joy, and affiliative vs. individuated joy. There is no comparable book or work that clarifies the relationship among major positive states with emotional components including satisfaction, happiness, and ecstasy.

Book Synopsis Constructing Collectivity by : Theodossia-Soula Pavlidou
Download or read book Constructing Collectivity written by Theodossia-Soula Pavlidou and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2014-02-15 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first edited volume dedicated specifically to first person non-singular reference (‘we’). Its aim is to explore the interplay between the grammatical means that a language offers for accomplishing collective self-reference and the socio-pragmatic – broadly speaking – functions of ‘we’. Besides an introduction, which offers an overview of the problems and issues associated with first person non-singular reference, the volume comprises fifteen chapters that cover languages as diverse as, e.g., Dutch, Greek, Hebrew, Cha’palaa and Norf’k, and various interactional and genre-specific contexts of spoken and written discourse. It, thus, effectively demonstrates the complexity of collective self-reference and the diversity of phenomena that become relevant when ‘we’ is not examined in isolation but within the context of situated language use. The book will be of particular interest to researchers working on person deixis and reference, personal pronouns, collective identities, etc., but will also appeal to linguists whose work lies at the interface between grammar and pragmatics, sociolinguistics, discourse and conversation analysis.
