Her life-changing revelation! Luca relished the fact that his fling
with Cordelia was driven by desire, not his wealth. But now their
baby compels him to bring her into his sumptuous world. Although
giving Cordelia his heart is a price he can't pay... The beauty he
unmasked... To retain the throne he's sacrificed everything for,
Alek must choose a bride. Hester's inner fire catches his
attention...and Alek sees the Queen that she could truly become-but
the real question is, can she?
Engage students in mathematics using growth mindset techniques The
most challenging parts of teaching mathematics are engaging
students and helping them understand the connections between
mathematics concepts. In this volume, you'll find a collection of
low floor, high ceiling tasks that will help you do just that, by
looking at the big ideas at the eighth-grade level through
visualization, play, and investigation. During their work with tens
of thousands of teachers, authors Jo Boaler, Jen Munson, and Cathy
Williams heard the same message—that they want to incorporate
more brain science into their math instruction, but they need
guidance in the techniques that work best to get across the
concepts they needed to teach. So the authors designed Mindset
Mathematics around the principle of active student engagement, with
tasks that reflect the latest brain science on learning. Open,
creative, and visual math tasks have been shown to improve student
test scores, and more importantly change their relationship with
mathematics and start believing in their own potential. The tasks
in Mindset Mathematics reflect the lessons from brain science that:
There is no such thing as a math person - anyone can learn
mathematics to high levels. Mistakes, struggle and challenge are
the most important times for brain growth. Speed is unimportant in
mathematics. Mathematics is a visual and beautiful subject, and our
brains want to think visually about mathematics. With engaging
questions, open-ended tasks, and four-color visuals that will help
kids get excited about mathematics, Mindset Mathematics is
organized around nine big ideas which emphasize the connections
within the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and can be used with
any current curriculum.
From festive fling...When heartbroken Becky Shaw retreats to the
Cotswolds for Christmas, she expects to be warming herself in front
of a fire, not in the arms of gorgeous Italian billionaire Theo
Rushing. As a snowstorm rages outside, indoors the temperature
starts to rise...to fake fiancee! It was meant to be a holiday
fling, until Theo reveals he needs a fake fiancee, and sweeps Becky
away to Italy and his luxurious world. To protect her heart she
agreed to a 'relationship' in name only, but as the chemistry
between them crackles, how long before Theo and Becky pass the
point of no return?
While sailing around the Caribbean, Cathy Williams Goforth reflects
on a life of travel and adventure that began in Australia as a
young girl. It led to Africa during the turbulent 1970's, England,
and Yemen. The Long Road morphed into a voyage that continually
draws her back to Jamaica.
Not Rio Again! is the story of family life in a variety of
countries and cultures, from Indonesia, Brazil, Nicaragua, Irian
Jaya, Pakistan and Ecuador, to Jamaica. In her first book, The Long
Road, Cathy Williams Goforth describes how she set out as a young
girl to see the world, never imagining that it would be possible to
travel for a lifetime. The richness of her experience was increased
when she continued her travels with a family. The product of
parents of differing cultures, her children are nowadays known as
Third Culture Kids, unique citizens of the world.
