Schools and Instruction Books

Lo compre para mi sobrino de once anhos, porque es un poco timido y le costaba trabajo preguntar las dudas que seguramente tenia. Pero con este libro creo que aclaro algunas de ellas y sin pasar la pena de preguntarle a su mama. Esta muy bien escrito, me gusto que el lenguaje es sencillo, de acuerdo a su edad. Definitivamente lo recomiendo para aquellas mamas que no tienen una figura masculina que les ayude a explicar los cambios que trae la adolescencia en los hijos varones.

I really lieked this boek, but it is a pitty that it does not have a indecks as it is such a long boek.

I like the pictures very much, and Rembrandt is very good artists, butshould he using more of colour, as brown, also printing.

Stil, I give book four/five stars.

I am using this text for a graduate level class I am teaching about reading in the content area. It seems to be a very large overview of all of the issues facing secondary content area teachers.

This book was the best book that you can find on Portuguse. Even though I got to use it for only a little while, I learned so much Portuguse in only weeks. It starts out teaching you some nouns like The pencil, the box, and the book. Then it moves on to a little grammer. I would not sugust this book if you need to learn Portuguse in a hurry

This is an excellent introductory source for the beginning returning or experienced preschool teacher. Skills for Pre School Teachers is clear and consice written in laymans terms. It offers many resources for activites and offers titles of material for further research. This text is user friendly filled with hands on assignments and check listsd that can be adapted to almost any classroom setting. I would higly reccommnend this text for beginners, staff development as well as seasoned professionals.

As an artist and therapist who facilitates creativity groups, I found many wonderful musical exercises in this book and have used them in my retreats with great results. The author is very creative and his exercises encourage the development of spontaneity, listening to musical subtleties, and moving beyond inhibition in expression. Sometimes his take is remeniscent of John Cage. He did his work in the 1950's with children, so the context is odd, but don't be put off by that.

This book was interesting - and has some good ideas. But, most of the book is for younger grades (3-4).

It's almost impossible to pick an art book based on others opinions but I personally fell in love with this book. I'm new to figure drawing and this book is just what I need. Not only does it give step-by-step instructions for several classic poses in a variety of mediums but it also provides you with the reference photo (which few figure drawing how-to's seem to do). There aren't a lot of exercises but for the price I'm still happy. A far more comprehensive book you should definitely check out is "The Big Book Of Drawing And Painting The Figure" - it's awesome and a great bargain at amazon!

Beach and Reinhartz provide realistic and applicable information that shows how the administrative leader in a school setting can facilitate growth of teachers, lead effectively, and develop personally. Using well-proven theory and respected experts in all fields, they develop a book that is a must in an administrator's library of personal resources. The book is effective in showing scientific approaches to evaluation, working with different personalities and creating effective change. This is the "Administrator's Bible" and a must for those who have just begun, or are looking to revitalize their approach in educational leadership.

I bought this book for "nostalgia:" I just picked up a keyboard and wanted to play the songs I grew up on in my Suzuki piano lessons. It's funny how the memories come flooding back - how I got terribly sick of that monstrous 8 page Sonata in the middle, but loved the last song "Gigue," etc. And now that I don't have to practice for a teacher, I have great fun just relearning the ones that I truly enjoyed.
Most people aren't going to buy this book out of the blue without a history of Suzuki piano, but if you do, be forwarned that it's reasonably advanced, not beginner level: I don't think I reached it until about 6 years into my piano career.
But the music is printed in good, legible text, and there are lots of fingering hints which are a rare find in "grown up" piano music.
