  If teachers want an inclusive, engaging classroom, they must learn their students' names. Sound advice, but rarely does it come with practical guidance—which is precisely what this book offers. Eschewing the random tips and mnemonic tricks that invariably fall short, Michelle D. Miller offers teachers a clear explanation of what is really going on when we learn a name, and a science-based approach for using this knowledge to pedagogical advantage. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on a background in the psychology of language and memory, Miller gives a lively overview of the surprising science of learning proper names, along with an account of why the practice is at once so difficult and yet so critical to effective teaching. She then sets out practical techniques for learning names. In her discussion of certain factors that can make learning names especially challenging, Miller pays particular attention to neurodivergence and the effects of aging on this form of memory. A Teacher's Guide to Learning Student Names lays out strategies for putting these techniques into practice, suggests technological aids and other useful resources, and explains how to make name learning a core aspect of one's teaching practice. 
   
   
   
  This concise guide provides teachers of all disciplines and levels an invaluable tool for creating a welcoming and productive learning environment.

  In his book, Rasmus Rasmussen provides a full account of the Viking's [1893] journey from Norway to Chicago from a crew-member's point of view. The trip was not without peril and hardship. Their accommodations were crude. The weather, at times, threatened their very lives. Most cities rolled out the red carpet to meet them, but one rolled out the paddy wagon. All together, an informative journal and a delightful read, and one that compels reflection and awe of the exploits of our Viking ancestors. - Paul A. Anderson, Honorary Norwegian Consul General 
  Rasmussen's diary recounts the historic journey made by twelve courageous seamen aboard Viking and includes his personal experiences during and after the Fair [1893 Chicago World's Fair]. Viking is the first Viking ship to sail in nearly 1,000 years, showing the world that Leif Erikson could have reached the New World almost 500 years before Columbus. 
  The Addendum continues the story of Viking and brings the reader up to date on the most recent preservation accomplishments. - Friends of the Viking Ship, NFP

  Stand Watie: The Life and Legacy...

  Editors Charles River

  Stand Watie’s life connects the traditional Cherokee homeland in Tennessee and Georgia, the fight within the tribe over leaving for the West or staying on their homeland and trying to resist, and the Trail of Tears. At the same time, his life also includes the ongoing split between mixed-blood and full-blood Cherokee in the Cherokee Nation, and the chaos of Indian Territory during the Civil War.  
  	On the surface, Indian Territory was peaceful and fairly prosperous, but old resentments simmered under the surface. The most dangerous of these was in the Cherokee Nation. Following the Cherokee removal, the leaders of the faction of the tribe that had actually signed the Treaty of New Echota suffered violence. There had been a law that giving away Cherokee land was punishable by death, and several of the leaders who signed the treaty were murdered. Stand Watie was one of the signers, and he barely escaped, but one of his brothers was executed. 
  	The Principal Chief was John Ross. He and his faction managed to retain political control of the Cherokee tribe, but there was lasting enmity between the Watie and Ross factions of the tribe. In a broad sense, the signers of the hated treaty were mixed-blood Cherokee, and the resistance had been led by full-bloods. Stand Watie headed the mixed-blood faction and John Ross the full-blood faction. Ironically, John Ross himself was mixed-blood and Watie was a full-blood, but regardless, this tribal split had important ramifications for the Cherokee in the coming war. 
  	Like the country as a whole, the Cherokee Nation was split over the question of slavery, and with an estimated 100 slaves owned, Watie was the biggest native slaveholder in the region. At the start of the war, Watie was commissioned as a colonel in Confederate service and later as a brigadier general. His 1st Cherokee Mounted Rifles Regiment fought more engagements than any other Confederate unit west of the Mississippi River.
