What do you want to know about sex?
Information about sex is everywhere. But what you learn from TV,
movies, the internet, and friends is not always a healthy or
accurate view of sexuality.
Now revised and updated with current facts, Joanna Cole's Asking
About Sex & Growing Up is the perfect book to provide answers
to questions about sex. Writing especially for preteens, the author
uses a question-and-answer format to offer straightforward
information on a wide variety of subjects related to sex and
puberty.
Engaging with sensory experience provides a gateway to the
contemplation and cultivation of creativity and ideas. Tomie Hahn's
workshopping recipes encourage us to incorporate sensory-rich
experiences into our research, creative processes, and
understanding of people. The exercises recognize that playfulness
allows for a loosening of self while increasing empathy and
vulnerability. Their ability to spark sensory endeavors that reach
into our deepest core offers potentially profound impacts on art
making, research, ethnographic fieldwork, contemplation,
philosophical or personal introspections, and many other
activities. Designed to be flexible, these living recipes provide
an avenue for performative adventures that invite us to improvise
in ways suited to our own purposes or settings. Leaders and
practitioners enjoy limitless arenas for using the senses for
explorations that range from personally transformative to
professionally productive to profoundly moving. User-friendly and
practical, Arousing Sense is a guide to how teaching through
sensory experience can lead to positive, transformative impact in
the classroom and everyday life.
She/he/they/them. Why do we use gender pronouns? And why do some
people wish to be referred to as "they"? What is gender identity
all about? Students will learn to understand these terms and the
reasons behind them. They will also learn how to deal with
questions they may have about gender identity.
From the expert team behind IT'S PERFECTLY NORMAL and IT'S SO
AMAZING! comes a book for younger children about their bodies -- a
resource that parents, teachers, librarians, health care providers,
and clergy can use with ease and confidence.
Young children are curious about almost everything, especially
their
bodies. And young children are not afraid to ask questions. What
makes
me a girl? What makes me a boy? Why are some parts of girls' and
boys'
bodies the same and why are some parts different? How was I made?
Where do babies come from? Is it true that a stork brings babies to
mommies and daddies?
IT'S NOT THE STORK! helps answer these endless and perfectly normal
questions that preschool, kindergarten, and early elementary school
children ask about how they began. Through lively, comfortable
language and sensitive, engaging artwork, Robie H. Harris and
Michael Emberley
address readers in a reassuring way, mindful of a child's healthy
desire
for straightforward information. Two irresistible cartoon
characters, a
curious bird and a squeamish bee, provide comic relief and give
voice to
the full range of emotions and reactions children may experience
while
learning about their amazing bodies. Vetted and approved by
science,
health, and child development experts, the information is
up-to-date,
age-appropriate, and scientifically accurate, and always aimed at
helping
kids feel proud, knowledgeable, and comfortable about their own
bodies,
about how they were born, and about the family they are part of.
