Goza-hi-Goza Ha hlaya, ha tsala prepares learners to meet the requirements of this subject, as set out in the CAPS document.
This book examines how mathematical mastery, influenced by East Asian teaching approaches, can be developed in UK schools to enhance teaching and to deepen children’s mathematical knowledge. It gives guidance on using physical resources to demonstrate key concepts, extended examples on how to teach different curriculum topics and how to plan for small-step progression. It argues that effective mastery teaching requires careful and knowledgeable support for primary teachers who may not yet be maths specialists. New to this second edition: New chapter on variation theory and practice Updated case studies exploring how mastery teaching has evolved Updated review of current mastery resources available to UK teachers Robert Newell is a lecturer at the UCL Institute of Education, London.
Swirling, curling brushstrokes. Vivid colors. Thick layers of paint. These are the hallmarks of a painting by Vincent van Gogh, whose work his fellow artist Paul Cezanne once called "that of a madman." But "Van Gogh and the Post-Impressionists for Kids" moves beyond the image of the mad pauper to reveal a complex young man who loved nature and reading, spoke four languages, and enjoyed a successful career as a gallery salesman before embarking on studies as a minister and, finally, finding his calling as an artist. Kids journey from the Netherlands to Paris to southern France as they learn about van Gogh's friendships with four other like-minded painters who admired but were determined to depart from Impressionism: Paul Gauguin, Paul Signac, Emile Bernard, and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Aspiring artists and history buffs learn not only how these Post-Impressionists' daring shapes, colors, and techniques distinguished their work from what was painted before but also how the men helped one another and whether or not they always got along. Twenty-one creative projects bring history and art to life. Readers will create a "Starry Night" peep box, make a Pointillist sailboat (that can really sail ), craft a Japanese fold-out album, and much more. The text includes a time line, glossary, and reading list for further study.

Designed to enjoy through individual reading or with an older family member, this series allow parents and grandparents to read alongside their young ones and share together in the experience of slowing-down, valuing stillness and thoughtfulness, and spending time in the company of family members and God.

Active participation is at the heart of this Act-Along Bible!†Professional storyteller, performer and award-winning children’s author Bob Hartman has made interaction central to the retelling of these 29 Bible stories. The narrator and those taking part act out roles in the stories with movement, sounds and actions. Imaginations will come alive as they pretend that they are involved in the story. Become Noah’s sons helping their father build the ark, Hebrew families recalling the events of the Exodus, soldiers in Gideon’s army, shepherds on the hillside around Bethlehem, fishermen on Sea of Galilee, and donkeys that ride Jesus into Jerusalem. The interactive narrative will keep children fully involved in the storytelling, while having plenty of fun, humour, and creativity to help become familiar and recall special Bible moments. A memorable and engaging way to explore stories of the Old and New Testaments at home, in children’s groups, and in classrooms.
This book is a compilation of case studies and analyses that can be used as a resource guide for college and university professors of foreign language and academic museum educators collaborating to develop new pedagogical approaches to teaching foreign language with and through objects in the academic museum. As institutions of higher education respond to the needs of an increasingly global and interconnected world, their educational missions prioritize learning in areas such as interdisciplinary thinking, collaboration, intercultural competency, and global citizenship. Academic museums are uniquely poised to facilitate learning experiences in these areas, providing institutions with an essential platform for realizing their larger mission.
