When billions of little stars find themselves individually
fragmented and split off from the Original Beautiful Light, they
suddenly begin to feel guilt over the mistaken thought that they
had destroyed that Beautiful Light to gain their individuality.
This sense of separation from their Source fosters fierce
competition, with each star pitted against every other. Each star's
individual goal is to replace the Original Beautiful Light, but
feeble twinkling is all that their super-strenuous and exhausting
efforts can produce. The Parable of the Stars is a story of
rediscovery as the stars come to remember their true beauty and
power within their oneness as the single beautiful Light.
Marni Altaker-Mount's My First Day of School is a great starter
book for any child experiencing school for the first time. Marni
Altaker-Mount wrote this book while pursuing her undergraduate
degree in Elementary Education. After successfully completing her
undergraduate studies, completing a Masters of Education, and
teaching for eight years she realized there was a need to publish
her book for both classroom and home use to help children cope with
their first school experience. Through the use of vivid color
illustrations by AmyBeth Quering, this book is not only verbally
stimulating but also visually entertaining.
My First Day of Schoolhas easy text for read-alouds with early
reader attention to numbers and letters. This book is a great tool
for early education. The theme, of course, is the first day of
school. A usual view would be from a child's perspective; this book
is from a teacher's perspective. The reader does not find this out
until the end of the book, but it clearly shows the teacher and the
children share the same routines and apprehensions about the first
day of school. This is quite a lovely and educational book, which
will reach children, parents, and teachers. This book will also be
a useful motivational tool for children with a fear of their first
day in a classroom setting.
The Sensory System is a system in your body that tells you how to
react with the world around you. But some people react differently
to the world around them than other people do. They sometimes react
by screaming, crying, hiding, running away or even just yelling.
"Stop " These people usually react in this way because their body's
nerves are telling them how to react when they are feeling either
excited, frustrated, mad, sad, upset or just thinking they can't do
it. This does not mean that they are better or worse than other
people. It just means that they need sensory tools. Sensory Tools
are tools that either calm your body down or tools that help your
body stay alert and let it learn. Some sensory tools that the
sensory room kids use are the squeeze machine, theraputty, stretchy
bands, concentration puppets, P's & Q's, one-legged T-Stools,
the swing, Body Sox and the mini-trampoline. Many of these items
come from the sensory room. Others are in the classroom. Each
student that goes to the sensory room will tell you about the tools
that help them best and describe a day in the life for them. Many
of the kids will use the words proprioceptive input. Just so you
know, proprioceptive input is when the joints and muscles in the
body are getting pressure and moved by doing things like pulling,
pushing or carrying something heavy. It is also when we do any kind
of exercise or hard work that makes our muscles have to do a job
that is fit for you. When you use the large muscles in your body,
you feel calmer and more organized. Hope you enjoy this book
written and illustrated by Abigail Grace Kroneberger.
