If we want to really understand our students so that we can
optimize instruction for them, we must think of each individual
student as distinctive and irreplaceable. From this core principle
springs the radically humane framework for meaningful teaching that
is the subject of this book: Powerful Student Care (PSC). Authors
Grant A. Chandler and Kathleen M. Budge developed this
one-of-a-kind system for catering to the unique life circumstances
of every child to help all teachers grow in their practice—and
all students to flourish. Based on voluminous research as well as
the authors' own experience as seasoned educators, PSC offers
teachers a foolproof way to ensure that, regardless of label or
socioeconomic profile, each one of their students receives the
support they need. Constructed as an allegorical learning voyage
for readers, this comprehensive guide detailsThe foundational five
tenets of community that enable students to succeed academically,
develop self-efficacy, and experience the joy of learning.
"Navigational instruments," such as processes, instructional
methods, and power-sharing relationships, for creating community.
The bodies of knowledge that directly influence teacher and student
success, including those related to empowerment, cultural humility,
antiracist and antibias learning, and more. The Contemplative
Practice, an inquiry-based, research-informed scaffold for teacher
planning and reflection. Brimming with colorful, in-depth case
studies of Powerful Student Care in action and including
downloadable forms and templates to help you move forward with
implementation, this book is an essential addition to the library
of any K–12 educator with a passion for knowing and supporting
the young human beings in their charge.
Schools across the United States and Canada are disrupting the
adverse effects of poverty and supporting students in ways that
enable them to succeed in school and in life. In this second
edition, Parrett and Budge show you how your school can achieve
similar results. Expanding on their original framework's
still-critical concepts of actions and school culture, they
incorporate new insights for addressing equity, trauma, and
social-emotional learning. These fresh perspectives combine with
lessons learned from 12 additional high-poverty, high-performing
schools to form the updated and enhanced Framework for Collective
Action. Emphasizing students' social, emotional, and academic
learning as the hub for all action in high-performing, high-poverty
schools, the authors describe how educators can work within the
expanded Framework to address the needs of all students, but
particularly those who live in poverty. Equipped with the Framework
and a plethora of tools to build collective efficacy
(self-assessments, high-leverage questions, action advice, and
more), school and district leaders-as well as teachers, teacher
leaders, instructional coaches, and other staff-can close
persistent opportunity gaps and reverse longstanding patterns of
low achievement.
Since God rested on the seventh day, good and evil have fought. In
fact, many religions believe it was on the seventh day that God
created evil to add balance to his creation. Whatever its origins,
the fight continues, though the rules of engagement have changed.
Shifton is a small, happy and safe North American town. However,
this quiet town has a hidden past. A secret history of depravity
that has laid dormant for sixty years. A spiritual dark side that
is about to be released, through a new vessel. John Garret is a
young boy battling through adolescence, who becomes the ungrateful
subject of the school bully. During an instance of tortuous
persecution, he finds himself abandoned by God, and breaks with his
faith, pledging his life to a darker force, in return for power and
glory. Unfortunately, through his impetuosity, he fails to pay
enough attention to the warnings. What Evil gives, it wants it back
double! Over time, Garret begins to neglect his new master, taking
more than giving. And when his past eventually catches up with him,
he is married to his childhood sweetheart and has a successful
career. But this perfect world is about to come crumbling down as a
new colleague with a hidden agenda arrives on the scene.
The Ancient Egyptians continue to fascinate people from all walks
of life. Of all the knowledge we have of their culture, the rituals
connected to death and the afterlife are the most compelling.
Mental health has become an unseen epidemic over recent years. A
disease that society struggles to accept and deal with. But where
does the failure to accept normal life end and poor mental health
begin? And who is accountable? Mental as Anything is a glimpse into
my life. A life that, objectively, is neither ordinary nor
exceptional, but is the one I have navigated. A life of experiences
and challenges that have shaped me and brought me to my knees. This
novel tells my story through the eyes of the person I have become
over the past three years. This individual was not who I am, but
instead was the culmination of three factors. The behaviour of a
minority of society's members. My ability to accept. My ability to
rebuild.
This, the first volume of Sir E. A. Wallis Budge's The History of
Ethiopia: Abyssinia and Nubia, first published in 1928, presents an
account of Ethiopian history from the earliest legendary and mythic
records up until the death of King Lebna Dengel in 1540. Using a
vast range of sources - Greek and Roman reports, Biblical passages,
Egyptian hieroglyphs, and Ethiopian chronicles - an enthralling
narrative history is presented with clarity. This reissue will be
of particular interest to students of Ancient Egyptian culture,
religion and history.
The recital of The Book of Opening the Mouth and the Liturgy of
Funerary Offerings were in use among the Predynastic Egyptians of
the later part of the Neolithic Period, before the art of writing
had evolved, and continued to exercise a considerable influence on
Egyptian religious literature until the time of Roman Empire. The
ceremonies were believed to enable the spiritual elements of the
deceased to continue their existence. The object of the formulae
was the reconstitution of the body and the restoration to it of the
heart-soul ('Ba'). This is the first volume of The Book of Opening
the Mouth, first published in 1909, which is edited from three
copies written in the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-sixth
Dynasties respectively. It is believed they describe faithfully the
forms of the rites which originated among the indigenous
inhabitants of the Nile Valley.
This work, written by Egyptologist E.A. Wallis Budge, is a complete
survey of the religion and mythology of the Ancient Egyptians.

This is the second volume of Sir E. A. Wallis Budge's narrative
account of Ethiopian history, and continues the chronicle of the
Kings of Abyssinia where the first volume ended: the death of Lebna
Dengel in 1540. The list of kings ends with the Regent Ras Tafari,
who still reigned at the time of first publication in 1928.
Thereafter, the author devotes considerable attention to an
overview of the cultural, social and political idiosyncrasies of
the Ethiopian people: literature, spells and magic, architecture,
ethnography, the alphabet, and a wide range of other engrossing
topics. This material complements the narrative history, helping to
situate the deeds of the kings and the fortunes of their people in
a broader context.
Containing a comprehensive dictionary of hieroglyphs to all the
texts of the Theban Recension of the Book of the Dead, and also to
most of the supplementary Chapters of the Saite and Graeco-Roman
period that are usually appended to it, this volume will prove to
be a staple part of a rounded appreciation of Ancient Egyptian
literature. First published in 1911, the index includes all English
equivalents to the Egyptian words. Phonetic values for each symbol
are provided, the arrangement of the words and their various forms
is arranged alphabetically throughout, and each hieroglyph is
printed clearly: a user-friendly and concise tool for all
enthusiasts, students and researchers.
This is the first of three volumes exploring some of the most
remarkable insights into Ancient Egypt to have come to light in
modern times. The first two volumes deal with the Rosetta Stone, an
outstanding archaeological discovery that has supplied the basis
for Egyptian decipherment; the final volume explores the "Stele of
Canopus", discovered in 1866. The significance of the Rosetta Stone
lies in the three different languages that are inscribed onto it:
Koine Greek, Demotic Egyptian, and, crucially, Hieroglyphic. This
has facilitated a vast increase in our understanding of the sacred
language of Ancient Egypt, as well as enhancing our understanding
of the nature of kingship at a time of immense cultural
transformation. First published in 1904, this reissue provides an
accessible general introduction to this fascinating subject, useful
for the amateur enthusiast as well as undergraduate students.

This is the first of three volumes, first published in 1906, which
explore the Egyptian theology of the afterlife. It contains the
complete hieroglyphic text of the Book Am-Tuat, with translations
and reproductions of all the illustrations. This text, at least in
the form that we have it, was produced by the priests of Amen-Ra at
Thebes, with the intention of demonstrating that their god was the
overlord of all the gods, and the supreme power in the universe.
The object of all the Books of the Other World was to provide the
dead with a 'guide' or 'handbook, ' containing a description of the
regions through which their souls would have to pass on their way
to the Kingdom of Osiris, and which would supply them with the
words of power and magical names necessary for an unimpeded journey
from this world to the next
This is the second of three volumes, first published in 1906, which
explore the Egyptian theology of the afterlife. It contains the
complete hieroglyphic text of the short form of the Am-Tuat and of
the Book of Gates, with translations and reproductions of all the
illustrations. In the Book of Gates the doctrines of the
sophisticated cult of Osiris are prominent: they affirm that the
beatified live for ever in the kingdom of Osiris, and feed daily
upon his eternal body. The object of all the Books of the Other
World was to provide the dead with a 'guide' or 'handbook, '

modern times. The first two volumes deal with the Rosetta Stone, an
outstanding archaeological discovery which has supplied the basis
for Egyptian decipherment; the final volume explores the "Stele of
Canopus", discovered in 1866. The Decree inscribed on the Stele of
Canopus was passed at a general Council of Egyptian priests,
setting forth the good deeds of Ptolemy III, and enumerating the
benefits that he and his wife Berenice had conferred upon Egypt.
Yet, the real significance of the Stele is that, like the Rosetta
Stone, the text is inscribed in Hieroglyphic, Greek and Demotic
Egyptian. First published in 1904, this reissue provides an
accessible general introduction to this fascinating subject,
particularly useful for the amateur enthusiast as well as
undergraduate students.
Sir E. A. Wallis Budge (1857-1934) was Keeper of the British
Museum's department of oriental antiquities from 1894 until his
retirement in 1924. Carrying out many missions to Egypt in search
of ancient objects, Budge was hugely successful in collecting
papyri, statues and other artefacts for the trustees of the British
Museum: numbering into the thousands and of great cultural and
historical significance. Budge published well over 100 monographs,
which shaped the development of future scholarship and are still of
great academic value today, dealing with subjects such as Egyptian
religion, history and literature. First published in 1899 as part
of the Egypt and Chaldaea series, Egyptian Religion explores the
principal ideas and beliefs held by the ancient Egyptians with
regard to the doctrine of the resurrection and the future life.
Although no systematic account dealing solely with this doctrine
has been discovered, the Book of the Dead and various other
religious texts from which this work is derived reflect ancient
Egyptian beliefs, ideals and superstitions. Wallis Budge explores
the Gods of the Egyptians and the themes of resurrection and
immorality in a classic work, of great significance to students and
scholars with an interest in ancient Egyptian and Middle Eastern
history and religion.

Tales and Romances examines the historical and religious romances
of the Egyptians from the early dynastic period to the twentieth
century. Budge demonstrates Egypt's transition from Paganism to
Christianity, and finally to Islam, through tales and stories
carefully transcribed and translated. Part I contains historical
romances written on papyrus and stone, whilst parts II and III are
derived largely from Coptic and Muslim manuscript sources.
Including detailed illustrations and photographs, this fascinating
classic work will be of interest to academics and students of
Egyptian folklore, archaeology and history, as well as the general
inquisitive reader.
