Sinopsis

The languages spoken by the pre-Columbian tribes of North America were many and diverse. Into the regions occupied by these tribes, travelers, traders, and missionaries have penetrated in advance of civilization, and civilization itself has marched across the continent at a rapid rate. Under these conditions the languages of the various tribes have received much study. Many extensive works have been published, embracing grammars and dictionaries; but a far greater number of minor vocabularies have been collected and very many have been published. In addition to these, the Bible, in whole or in part, and various religious books and school books, have been translated into Indian tongues to be used for purposes of instruction; and newspapers have been published in the Indian languages. Altogether the literature of these languages and that relating to them are of vast extent.

    Having children is joyful, and parents are naturally programmed to raise them to be well-rounded individuals that are fully equipped to face the world, right? This may be the case on another planet, but here on Earth, we all know differently! Parents are suddenly expected to know how to teach their beloved children how to cope with a maelstrom of emotions that are completely alien to them and have reactions that suit the rest of the planet. 
    The pressure on parents is intense, and they often struggle to ask for help. And that is why we have books and online resources to help. Parenting is the most difficult job in the world so having help is essential. Don’t suffer alone. Use this book to help you navigate the treacherous waters of children’s emotions and emerge from the journey successfully.  
    Understanding how society affects your child is a major stepping stone to dealing with their anger. America and the modern world accept anger as a cultural state of emotion. Angry images are prevalent on television, in films and music, and even in children’s toys and video games. How is it possible to shield your child from these elements? It is impossible, but you can be vigilant about what they are exposed to and be ready to explain why they sometimes see confusing images. 
    Another important aspect of anger is the endorphins it releases into our system. They help us shield ourselves from those who would harm us emotionally and physically, and it feels like we become stronger and more confident in anger. Of course, we know this is just a fleeting sentiment and that these feelings wear off, but children can find the sensation appealing.

    Students learning modern foreign languages often comment that it is just too hard to learn, and remember, all of vocabulary presented to them. Yes, there is a lot of content that needs to be covered, and a lot of vocabulary that needs to be learned. But there is a way of making this process engaging and motivating. Language lessons needn't be full of grammar worksheets, endless drilling and rote learning lists of vocabulary.
    Learning languages isn't always fun and games. But these aren't games; they are fun learning activities. And they can help revolutionise language teaching; enabling teachers to authoritatively impart knowledge while fostering a thirst for knowledge and love of learning in their students.
    First, the Vocab Fun Learning Activities (VFLAs) learn the vocabulary in ways which will improve recognition and recall. Then, the Fun Learning Activities use this vocabulary knowledge to build sentences and paragraphs; explore and use this language while keeping the whole class engaged and actively learning. The activities are designed to encourage all students to participate and learn more through enjoyment.
    Based on the author's extensive classroom experience, and underpinned by research into how students learn best, each activity comes complete with a detailed explanation and plenty of ideas for variations, differentiations and extensions. The activities come with example vocabulary lists in French, German and Spanish as a starting point, which are all available for download via a link provided in the book. However, the activities will work effectively in any language and with any vocabulary list of the teacher's choosing, and can be adapted to suit every topic, learning objective and age range.
    Discover ready to use activities which will make for outstanding lessons in every class and ensure engagement, motivation, rapport, progress and attainment over time.

    In her new inspirational memoir, Dr. Hattie N. Washington reveals how a country girl from the backwoods of Meherrin, Virginia succeeded through life with optimism, drive, and a belief in God to become an honor student, a master teacher, a parent to two accomplished daughters, and a foster parent to numerous abused foster boys over twenty-two years. She writes about family, relationships, and the complexities of growing up during the segregation and desegregation era, when the strike at R.R. Moton High School in Farmville, Virginia in 1951 led to the historic Brown v. Board of Education 1954 desegregation case.
