Ostrov s vůní čerstvého chleba - Jenny Colganová
Někdy se stane, že žijete celé roky s přítelem, s nímž máte vlastní prosperující podnik, bydlíte v luxusním manažerském bytě v Plymouthu, chodíte do vybrané společnosti, a zdá se, že jinak to ani být nemůže. A pak přijde bankrot, váš vztah to zničí a najednou nemáte nic. Chce to velkou odvahu začít znova. Třicetiletá Polly to dokázala. Bez prostředků, bez přátel se ocitla na přílivovém ostrově v Cornwallu. A po práci v designérském studiu začala péct chleba a zjistila, že hníst těsto rukama je pro její bolavou duši zázračný lék. Elitní společnost plymouthských podnikatelů vyměnila za rybáře, vyjíždějící každý večer na moře za úlovkem. Nebylo lehké bydlet v nehostinné krajině, kdy je třeba přizpůsobit život přílivům, jež odříznou ostrov od okolního světa, a kde bouře přináší smrt i těsné přátelství. Zpočátku byl jejím jediným kamarádem papuchalk, který náhodou vlétl dírou ve střeše k ní do domu. Chtěla zde zůstat jen tak dlouho, než se zase postaví na nohy, ale nakonec zjistila, že tenhle kouzelný ostrov jí zcela učaroval. Jenny Colganová (*1972) se narodila v Prestwicku ve Skotsku. Po vystudování Edinburské univerzity pracovala šest let ve zdravotních službách, přivydělávala si jako kreslířka komiksových příběhů a vystupováním jako sólová komička. V roce ...

Classroom Engagement: The unwritten code - Jen Foster
What they didn′t tell you about how to increase engagement and decrease unsettled behaviour.Teachers have long been taught to use different strategies: one for behaviour; one for learning. Start with control to get their attention, then move on to the learning. This isn′t working. It′s time for a change.Jen Foster brings a new approach. One that recognises that behaviour and learning cannot and should not be separated. One that harnesses the power of engagement to put children′s focus on learning at the heart of every lesson.Educator Jen Foster offers teachers a fundamental unwritten code for all lessons. Exploring the research behind what we know about children′s learning, Jen outlines why Flow, Play, Drive, Connection and Movement are key elements for all lessons. Jen presents examples of effective classroom activities, inspiration for lesson planning and practical support for teaching.Classroom Engagement: The Unwritten Code shows you how to bring the power of engagement to your lessons. Engaged children are more focused, more motivated, happier and more ready to learn.Â

Czech Lessons - Jessica Kendall Hankiewicz
What is it like to move to a formerly communist, Eastern Bloc country just as it is coming to know the West? How much can a new and free generation teach an outsider who is willing to watch, to listen, and to integrate? Written from the perspective of an American emigrant settling in the Czech Republic not long after the fall of communism, Czech Lessons tracks the metamorphosis of both the Czech people and their new republic over the past two decades, capturing a unique period in this humble Central European country's development. Alternating between history, humor, politics, and memoir, Jessica Kendall Hankiewicz's book of essays delves into the intangible qualities that make up both a nation and a nationality, bringing daily Czech life and culture sharply into focus. From the benefits of a social democracy to the national obsession with nature, Czech Lessons not only magnifies this small country for the world to see, but also offers up a mirror for the Czech people themselves.

Seven Brief Lessons on Physics - Carlo Rovelli
THE PHENOMENAL BESTSELLER 'There's a book I've been carrying around like a small Bible, Seven Brief Lessons on Physics' - Benedict Cumberbatch Everything you need to know about modern physics, the universe and our place in the world in seven enlightening lessons 'Here, on the edge of what we know, in contact with the ocean of the unknown, shines the mystery and the beauty of the world. And it's breathtaking' These seven short lessons guide us, with simplicity and clarity, through the scientific revolution that shook physics in the twentieth century and still continues to shake us today. In this mind-bending introduction to modern physics, Carlo Rovelli explains Einstein's theory of general relativity, quantum mechanics, black holes, the complex architecture of the universe, elementary particles, gravity, and the nature of the mind. Not since Richard Feynman's celebrated Six Easy Pieces has physics been so vividly, intelligently and entertainingly revealed. Translated by Simon Carnell and Erica Segre

Lessons of Decal - Sophie Seita
A decal is a copy, a transfer of forms and knowledge, something that sticks and leaves a mark. Lessons of Decal meditates on these transfers, on writing and making art, and on the many voices and art works that teach us how to read and think and be. Using personal reflections, close readings, and poetic interventions, Lessons of Decal gathers a series of passionate and playful essays that treat Form as their side-kick, experimenting with the confusing, unpredictable and pleasurable side of language along the way. Together, they make an impassioned call for nuance, curiosity, messiness, attentiveness, and pleasure. Lessons of Decal is a defence of complexity and confusion, across art and life.For Fans Of: Maggie Nelson, Christina Sharpe, Chris Krauss

Concept-Based Literacy Lessons - Lois A. Lanning, Tiffanee Brown
Literacy is not a decontextualized drill of skills or learning just about "a book." You will highlight, ponder, and tab as you read about the design of Concept-Based literacy lessons. All students deserve the best literacy instruction—and this IS the BEST. —H. Lynn Erickson The guide for designing and implementing Concept-Based literacy lessons A Concept-Based Curriculum is designed to help students uncover important, transferable understandings about what it means to be a capable reader, writer, speaker, viewer, listener, and thinker.

Life Lessons from 1 Samuel - Max Lucado
It matters how you finish.A good start is crucial, but it''s the end that matters. First Samuel is a book of good starts but bad finishes. Eli was a sterling religious leader, but by the end of his life, the ark of the covenant had been captured and his two rebellious sons killed. Samuel was a prophet of God who anointed kings, but his sons also turned away from the Lord. The most dramatic example is Saul. He seemed to be the perfect choice for Israel''s first king. But success led to disobedience, and he slid from prominence to paranoia to suicide. These stories remind us that when it comes to our faith, we also need to finish well. As the apostle Paul wrote, we must "run in such a way as to get the prize" (1 Corinthians 9:24).The Life Lessons with Max Lucado series brings the Bible to life in twelve lessons filled with intriguing questions, inspirational stories, and poignant reflections to take you deeper into God''s Word.

Lessons learned from maths lessons - Joan Stephens, Keith Parramore
This is a book about teaching mathematics in schools. There are many excellent books about teaching mathematics that are driven by pedagogy, psychology or research. This book is different. It is driven by the mathematics that underpins the school mathematics curriculum, informed by the authors’ experiences and opinions. In the field of pedagogy, there are very few fixed “knownsâ€. Mathematics, on the other hand, is a well-founded rock. So, the thoughts and advice provided by Keith Parramore and Joan Stephens are anchored to that rock. Lessons Learned from Maths Lessons is based on observations in secondary schools, and many sections are relevant to primary school mathematics. The authors are a husband-and-wife team of practising mathematicians, with a wealth of experience in supporting trainee teachers. They have learned something new and/or interesting from every mathematics lesson they have observed. One objective of this book is to share some of that learning with the reader. A second objective is to promote an approach to teaching mathematics that empowers pupils and promotes understanding. Trainee teachers often identify specific topic areas that they perceive they need to develop. Parramore and Stephens argue that the greater need is for them to develop depth rather than ...

When Jennifer Scott arrived in Paris as an exchange student from California, she had little idea she would become an avid fan of French fashion, lifestyle, and sophistication. Used to a casual life back home, in Paris she was hosted by a woman she calls “Madame Chic,” mistress of a grand apartment in the Sixteenth Arrondissement. Madame Chic mentors Jennifer in the art of living, with elegance and an impeccably French less-is-more philosophy.
