Par Hope Fields. 2018
Thank You, God! is a Christian book for children and families. The book is intended for parents to read to…
their children or children can read on their own about what God has done. The words rhyme and repeat to make reading fun. Rhyming and repetition of books are great ways for children to recognize sounds of language as well as remember the words of the books. The visuals are colorful and relatable to children, in addition to being easily identifiable. The photographs match the words beautifully and make the words come to life. My goal is to encourage families to read the bible, which is why most pages reference a scripture that correlates to the words. Thank You God! opens the door to show children what God has done, but the bible goes deeper and shows us why we are thankful for all he has given us. This book can be a bridge to reading the bible as a family. My prayer is that this book can help families who may not be as familiar with God&’s word, but want God&’s word to be an integral part of their day. As you read Thank You, God! refer to your bible and learn so much more of what God has done.Elevating Equity and Justice is just what the civic-minded activist in you is looking for-an accessible and engaging guide to…
connect your teaching to the times we live in, providing insight into ten United States Supreme Court cases that impact schools and teaching. Some of the cases will be familiar to you and some will not. Why these cases? They cover the landscape of both civil rights and civil liberties, exploring topics and situations teachers and administrators face every day. Plus they're interesting-they involve real problems of real people who are raising legal and policy issues thorny and weighty enough to have reached the highest court in the country. To read them is to take a mini course in the history of education in our nation and in the civil rights and civil liberties issues that educators and students encounter on a daily basis. Robert Kim, an education policy expert and former civil rights lawyer, has spent much of the last two decades focused on the rights of students, as well as the legal rights and obligations of schools and educators. In Elevating Equity and Justice, Bob takes a deep dive into ten cases of historical impact, providing background and information on each as well as an explanation of why it is important to know them. He brings the source material to life without overwhelming you with "legalese" and dos and don'ts. For each case, Bob provides a summary of the judicial opinion; some interesting history or perspective about the case, including more recent legal developments; the implications for educators and schools; classroom and community voices that provide insight from real teachers dealing with these topics; tips for how to be proactive; and a short list of resources to further your knowledge about the case or the topics covered in it. Reading these ten cases certainly won't address every situation educators encounter. Chances are you'll be drawn to reflect on what these cases mean for your teaching practice or your school. How can they help you address the needs of a particular student? What civic lessons do they teach? What values do they impart? Elevating Equity and Justice helps educators consider the needs of all of their students and elevates the discussion, teaching, and practice of equity at school.
