Word Practice

When you pray, whether it's at the dinner table, before bed, or in a pew on Sunday morning, where is God? If your gut answer is "out there" or even "I'm not so sure anymore," you're not alone. We have all felt the void and the ache, crying out to God for help and reassurance, but wondering why our prayers go unanswered, or if they are even heard. Because most of us were taught to pray towards a God that was far away and distant. And the job of your prayers was to somehow close the distance. To pray harder. Fast longer. Push through. Press in.

Julia Lindsey's new audiobook answers teachers' persistent questions about how to teach effectively in small groups, showing teachers how to identify specific "sticking points," or needs, that students typically have—and then respond with routines and methods based on empirical research. This targeted, purpose-driven approach—sometimes requiring as little as five minutes of daily instructional time—moves the needle for readers at every point on the developmental spectrum.

Phonics instruction shouldn't end when students can decode short words. From an early age, they also need to be able to decode "big words" -- words with multiple syllables (sound units) and morphemes (meaning units) -- to read proficiently. The key is to teach them systematically and explicitly, in developmentally appropriate ways. That's where this audiobook comes in. Dr. Heidi Anne Mesmer shares essential background on how language "works," provides a K-5 scope and sequence to guide practice, and offers abundant research-backed strategies that teachers can put into action immediately.

THE VOCABULARY BOOK FOR PEOPLE WHO DO NOT WANT A WORKBOOK. You already speak English. The grammar holds up and the listening is fine.

MOST WORD LISTS ARE PADDED. THIS ONE WAS CUT. Every headword was checked against published language-level frameworks before it earned a place. Words a B1 reader already owns were removed. So were the fossils that pad out most vocabulary books, the ones no living ...

Who hasn't felt a shiver of fascination at the mere mention of the Essenes, that name so charged with mystery and the sense of the sacred? Olivier Manitara retraces their history, and in his footsteps we enter the world of Jesus, of Moses, of a pharaonic Egypt far stranger than we imagined. Far from the small Jewish sect of two thousand years ago, the Essenes emerge as the living thread joining the three great monotheistic faiths, and, further still, every religion and culture of the world. · A people in every people—a school of prophets, a state of consciousness rather than a sect · ...
