Would you want to be a student in your own classroom? In this
bestselling book, Pernille Ripp challenges both novice and seasoned
teachers to co-create a positive, interactive learning environment
with students. Based on honest reflections on her own teaching
experience, Pernille offers a wide variety of ideas for sharing
control, developing your intuition, learning how to fail, giving
yourself grace, building community and trust, creating more choice,
allowing time for student expertise, and letting go of the punish,
behave, and reward cycle so that intrinsic motivation can thrive.
This fully enhanced new edition is chock full of additional
strategies and tools on topics such as centering students'
identities, overcoming barriers when creating student-centered
lessons to emphasize ownership of the learning cycle, shoring up
your boundaries to manage your time and stop the intense prepwork,
changing your homework habits to reduce your load and give students
more time, deemphasizing grades, and much more. With Pernille's
heartfelt stories and practical strategies, you'll feel inspired to
give your classroom back to your students and foster a community of
truly passionate learners!

made, young readers can find out exactly what is needed to grow a

closely with a leading national LGBT organisation, this inclusive
guide to Making a Baby covers sex, sperm and egg donation, IUI,
IVF, surrogacy and adoption, as well as explaining how a baby grows
in the womb and about different kinds of births. Written in gentle

read alone by confident readers, we hope this book and its charming
illustrations will provide the stepping stone for every parent to

High Leverage Practices for Intensive Interventions provides
special education teachers with descriptions and practical
instructions on how to use High Leverage Practices (HLPs) to
improve student outcomes. Since many students with disabilities
spend their school day in inclusive general education classrooms,
these intensive interventions are delivered in separate or tier 3
settings to meet the students' individualized needs. Each chapter
focuses on a specific High Leverage Practice with explanations of
its purpose and essential components, accompanied by examples for
use with small groups of students or the individual student. This
accessible and comprehensive guide is key for pre-service teachers
in special education programs or those who provide intensive
interventions with students.

You don't need a mask or cloak to be a hero, nor do you need
superpowers - merely courage and determination. There are many such
heroes, everywhere, from sport to science, to art and politics.
These men and women are beyond us, they have shown it is possible
to unite brains with love. What makes their lives and adventures so
special is that they are so normal, just like you and me. Some have
been able to overcome the greatest obstacles to better the most
unthinkable challenges, and others have had to try and try again to
obtain revolutionary achievements, but all have had an incredible
drive. Martin Luther King, Frida Kahlo, Stephen Hawkins, Bebe
Vio... a long list of people who, from the beginning of the 20th
century until today, encourage us to think of what we could all be
capable of. This book will give you some interesting facts and
unknown information on these contemporary heroes, as exceptional as
they are normal.
