Book Review: Pam Allyn's Best Books for Boys

By MeredithResnick on  From labelsnotlimits.com
C.S. Lewis said, "We read to know that we are not alone." When I was provided with an advanced copy of Pam Allyn's Best Books for Boys , I thought how pleased C.S. Lewis might have been to read the book! Boys may not always have the opportunity to learn to read and practice reading with this connection-making ideal in mind, given the way we have constructed reading in schools. But there's a great deal of hope, Allyn assures us.   Although one might assume Allyn's book is only for...Read Full Story

Living with dyscalculia “Dys–what?” I hear you thinking, as you read the title of this post.

By DFrances on  From horizoneducationalconsulting.blogspot.com
Beware of the Hype I used to be in awe of people who got a lot of publicity. My first smack in the face came when a PR company called me for a business launch of my upcoming book and had written a quote for me. They wanted me to approve the quote. I refused as it ethically did not match my intention of the book. So that's how the game works eh? Since then, I have had a love-hate relationship with PR. I realize it is important to stay "top of mind," however at the same time, it is so...Read Full Story

Great Use of Technology

I found this great idea on the Shape Collage web site, submitted by an educator.  She used this program Shape Collage) to inspire her students.   I think there is a lot of potential in this for all students, and especially for students with disabilities who may benefit from not only the visual component but the “bait” it can provide to many academic tasks.  I can see how it might be used effectively in the classroom by teachers and at home by parents.   Take  look: Shape Collage...Read Full Story
