FEAR STREET -- WHERE YOUR WORST NIGHTMARES LIVE...
The invitation arrived in a black-borderred envelope and was
delivered by the beautiful and mysterious transfer student. The
inside showed a coffin with the inscription "reserved for You" --
perfect for an al-night Halloween party in an old house on Fear
Street.
The party was well under way when the lights went out. That's to
be expected at the Halloween party. But when the lights came back
on, there was a boy on the floor with a knife in his back. Just a
Halloween prank? Maybe. Maybe not.
Now the guests trick-or-treating has turned to terror. And it
looks like someone's idea of a party game is murder

The Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning (SEAL) programme is a
UK government initiative designed to help children and young people
develop social and emotional intelligence. SEAL aims to help
children nurture skills such as understanding another's point of
view, working in a group, sticking at things when they get
difficult, resolving conflict and managing worries. SEAL Assemblies
for Primary Schools is a collection of 42 SEAL-themed assemblies,
edited by Ronni Lamont. A new addition to the highly successful
SPCK Assemblies Book series, it will be a valuable resource for
primary school teachers and clergy who wish to implement the SEAL
curriculum.
What is the role of the humanities in the modern school? Should
geography, history, RE and Citizenship teachers remain faithful to
long-standing subject cultures and pedagogies? Or is there another
way to consider how the curriculum, and the notion of individual
subjects and teachers pedagogy, could be constructed?
Drawing on case studies taken from a range of innovative
secondary schools, and interrogating the use of cross-curricular
approaches in UK schools, Cross-Curricular Teaching and Learning in
Humanities constructs a research based pedagogy with practical
steps for students and teachers as they consider how
cross-curricular approaches can be implemented in their own subject
areas.
Key features include:
- Clear theoretical frameworks for cross-curricular processes of
teaching and learning in the humanities
- Lively and engaging text that blends key issues with stories of
current practice
- An analysis of the use of assessment, enquiry, and pupil talk
as key components in building a cross-curricular approach to the
humanities
- Practical and reflective tasks that enable to reader to apply
their reading to day to day practice, alongside links to
professional standards
- Summaries of key research linked to suggestions for further
reading
- Professional development activities to promote cross-curricular
dialogue
Part of the Cross-Curricular Teaching and Learning in the
Secondary School series, this timely interdisciplinary textbook is
essential reading for all students on Initial Teacher Training
courses and practising teachers looking to holistically introduce
cross-curricular themes and practices in secondary Humanities
teaching.

resource material for reminiscence and activities with older people
for a whole year! Containing 52 sections of ideas and resource
materials for each week of the year, this is an invaluable resource

and cognitive problems. Some activities require some physical
effort, others mental effort, but they are all adaptable to be fun
and achievable. This book also includes an introduction to the
nature and value of reminiscence and activities, and guidelines on
'how to do it'. Written by the author of "Groupwork Activities",
this comprehensive resource provides hundreds of activity and
reminiscence ideas - a fantastic resource.
Mark Kurlansky's bestselling works of nonfiction view the history
of the world through unexpected lenses, including cod, salt, and
paper. In this new book for young readers his lens is the art of
the big lie. Big lies are told by governments, politicians, and
corporations to avoid responsibility, cast blame on the innocent,
win elections, disguise intent, create chaos, and gain power and
wealth. Big lies are as old as civilization. They corrupt public
understanding and discourse, turn science upside down, and reinvent
history. They prevent humanity from addressing critical challenges.
They perpetuate injustices. They destabilize the world. As with his
book World Without Fish, Kurlansky has written A History of Big
Lies for young readers, the future stewards of our world. It is not
only a history but a how-to manual for seeing through big lies and
thinking critically. "I hope that you will keep asking yourself
what is true as you read this book and live your life," he entreats
readers at the outset. "If the Age of Enlightenment is not to be
followed by the Age of Chaos, we have to think for ourselves." A
History of Big Lies soars across history, alighting on the "noble
lies" of Socrates and Plato, Nero blaming Christians for the
burning of Rome, the great injustices of the Middle Ages, the big
lies of Stalin and Hitler and their terrible consequences, and the
reckless lies of contemporary demagogues, which are amplified
through social media. Lies against women and Jews are two examples
in the long history of "othering" the vulnerable for personal gain.
Nor does America escape Kurlansky's equal-opportunity spotlight.
The modern age has provided ever-more-effective ways of spreading
lies, but it has also given us the scientific method, which is the
most effective tool for finding what is true. In the book's final
chapter, Kurlansky reveals ways to deconstruct an allegation. Is
there credible, testable evidence to support it? If not, suspect a
lie. A scientific theory has to be testable, and so does an
allegation. Who is the source? Who benefits? Is there a money
trail? Especially in the age of social media, critical thinking
counters lies and chaos. "Belief is a choice," Kurlansky writes,
"and honesty begins in each of us. A lack of caring what is true or
false is the undoing of democracy. The alternative to truth is a
corrupt state in which the loudest voices and most seductive lies
confer power and wealth on grifters and oligarchs. We cannot
achieve a healthy planet for all the world's people if we do not
keep asking what is true."
