  BAG OF TRICKS is a compilation of short stories about San Francisco punks in the early 80’s. 
  These vignettes stand alone yet bleed into one another. Meet the band The Shits, their groupies The Clits, and an array of colourful characters who populate these streets, squats and punk shows.

  The Prophet is a book of prose poetry that made its Lebanese-American author Kahlil Gibran famous.
  Originally published in 1923, the book begins with a man named Almustafa living on an island called Orphalese. Locals consider him something of a sage, but he is from elsewhere and has waited twelve years for the right ship to take him home. From a hill above the town, he sees his ship coming into the harbor, and realizes his sadness at leaving the people he has come to know. The elders of the city ask him not to leave. He is asked to tell of his philosophy of life before he goes, to speak his truth to the crowds gathered. What he has to say forms the basis of the book.

  Foreword by John Hattie.
  Questioning is a staple feature of a teacher's toolkit across all phases of education. Classrooms are awash with explanation, modelling and feedback, but of all the pedagogical strategies at a teacher's disposal, questioning is one of the most important. It is the heartbeat of a classroom. While the art of asking a question seems relatively straightforward, to what extent do teachers consider the types of questions they're using? Are the questions they ask students actually helping to support learning? InPowerful Questioning,Michael Chiles delves into the complexity of asking questions and how best to use this pedagogical tool as a powerful springboard to support learning in the classroom.
  Teachers are described by many as 'professional question-askers' and the use of questioning in the teaching and learning process dates back to one of the most influential users and developers of questions, the Greek philosopher Socrates. Socrates believed that by asking questions we encourage reflection, and that their use is most effective when we create a continual loop of dialogue between the asker and the receiver, to allow movement from surface to deeper level thinking.Powerful Questioningtakes inspiration from this, providing original theory that relates back to the historical use of questioning in the classroom throughout.
  Offering a fresh perspective on how questioning can be engineered to support effective learning,Powerful Questioningexamines the reasons behind the questions we ask and reveals the power of asking the right questions, in the right way, at the right time. It details a set of core principles, recommendations and classroom-based practical examples that can be used to implement powerful questioning both in the classroom and wider school.
  Michael's aim is to help teachers become research-informed on the theories around the use of questioning in the classroom, whilst also providing a wide range of practical classroom-based strategies. Readers will take away specific examples from a broad range of case studies in which teachers at different phases of education (from Key Stages one to five) share how they use questioning to improve learning and retention.
  Essential reading for all teachers and school leaders.

  In Lakota tradition, the bow and arrow were more than tools for hunting or battle.

In The Lakota Way of Strength and Courage, Joseph M. Marshall builds upon the central metaphor of the bow and arrow to provide a treasury of insights, stories, and irreplaceable wisdom. In this unabridged audio version of the book—masterfully read by the author—Marshall draws from traditional stories, the history of the Lakota, and his own experiences to offer timeless lessons on:Transformation—what the journey of the Lakota people teaches us about preserving what is essential as our external circumstances changeSimplicity—the story of Grandmother Grass Braid, who understood that “the more you know, the less you need to carry”Purpose—how the world unveils our purpose to us, as revealed in the story of the Keeper of the Winter CountStrength—the moving story of Henry One Bull, and how adversity teaches us to develop the true core of our strengthResiliency—the lessons of Grandma Red Leaf on facing the challenges of life with the best we have to offerOnce, the Lakota people relied on the ash bow and the willow arrow to provide food and sustenance.
