Sinopse

This book takes you on an exciting journey around the world to explore the mysteries, traditions, and customs of New Year celebrations. Each country adds its own unique touch to this global holiday, blending ancient rituals, family values, and modern trends. From the lively beaches of Brazil to the dazzling fireworks of Times Square, from the peaceful serenity of Chinese temples to the Southern Cross in Australia, we'll take you everywhere.
You'll discover how people across the globe say goodbye to the past, welcome the future, and express their hopes for what's to come. Through food, vibrant traditions, music, and dance, we'll show you how New Year becomes a time of unity, joy, and inspiration for millions. This book is more than just a collection of stories—it's an invitation to realize that, despite our cultural differences, we all share the universal desire for a fresh start, a clean slate, and a pursuit of happiness.

This practical guide includes questions to ask students and their parents, self-assessment tools, and an array of leadership and teaching practices that are effective to empower Black students, elevate school attendance and academic engagement, and improve other important outcomes.

    Sounds of Other Shores takes an ethnographic ear to the history of transoceanic stylistic appropriation in the Swahili taarab music of the Kenyan coast. Swahili taarab, a form of sung poetry that emerged as East Africa's first mass-mediated popular music in the 1930s, is a famously cosmopolitan form, rich in audible influences from across the Indian Ocean. But the variants of the genre that emerged in the Kenyan coastal city of Mombasa during the twentieth century feature particularly dramatic, even flamboyant, appropriations of Indian and Arab sonic gestures and styles. Combining oral history, interpretive ethnography, and musical analysis, Sounds of Other Shores explores how Swahili-speaking Muslims in twentieth-century Mombasa derived pleasure and meaning from acts of transoceanic musical appropriation, arguing that these acts served as ways of reflecting on and mediating the complexities and contradictions associated with being "Swahili" in colonial and postcolonial Kenya. The result is a musical anthropology of Kenyan Swahili subjectivity that reframes longstanding questions about Swahili identity while contributing to broader discussions about identity and citizenship in Africa and the Indian Ocean world.

    A Grammar Series That Uses the Functional Approach 
    
    KEY FEATURES 
    - Functional approach to grammar teaching, using exemplars to illustrate the usage before defining the structure and rules 
    - Vocabulary taught through language-in-use to build the learners’ vocabulary through use rather than memorisation of rules 
    - Contemporary topics to inculcate 21-century skills amongst learners 
    - Use of literature to help learners understand how grammar is used in text 
    - A comprehension section comprising texts from different genres so that learners may relate grammar to different types of works produced in English 
    - Phonics in Grades 1 and 2 to teach the very basis of language 
    - Uniquely stylised illustrations 
    - Activities such as puzzles, crosswords, word grids and games to aid the facilitator in using the concept of ‘flipped classroom’ 
    - Periodic tests to help the learners self-assess the acquisition of concepts 
    - Digital component to cater to a technology-driven classroom 
    
    DESCRIPTION: 
    My Blue Book of Grammar is a course that has been conceptualized and designed keeping in mind the increasingly dynamic role of the English language in today’s world. Especially in our country, where English serves as the lingua franca, a grammar course has to offer not only an exposition of the pedagogy but also the exhibition of the utility of that pedagogy. The aim of a grammar series should be to encourage the development of competency amongst learners, even though their proficiency levels may vary. While the level of exposure to English of all learners may be different, a grammar series should aid in the development of a certain level of confidence amongst the learners, with the end result being that they are able to converse without hesitation in English.
