Teachers and librarians are continually looking for an interesting, fun way to input content knowledge to build that background information which will help push up student expository reading scores. Nonfiction readers theatre is one way to accomplish this. Professor Fredericks offers 30 short nonfiction readers theatre plays for the young reader (grades 1-3) on topics ranging from earth and natural science to community helpers, holidays, and government.Test scores across the country show American students are far more able to read narrative than nonfiction text. Some research speculates this is due to a great lack in the background knowledge of many children. Librarians are beginning to realize that a unique fit for the school librarian is as a provider of background knowledge materials for teachers to use.

Unlock the power of personal wisdom with nature's best teacher: trees, sentinels of both understanding and insight.In every civilized country, trees have been revered for their arboreal wisdom, common sense modeling, botanical philosophy, and lifelong acumen. They are, without argument, icons of counsel and direction. Trees offer commending insights for our liveslives succumbed to stress, anxiety, and loss of focus. Trees are, in so many ways, individual examples of determination, vibrancy, and passion; not for a moment, but rather for a lifetime. The Healing Wisdom of Trees offers sixty-five separate essays of practical advice that can change lives for the better; a collection of scientific and psychological insights that can renew and reinvigorate. For the long term. This is not a book about spirituality, trees that talk to us, or ever-knowing sprites that gambol through the forest. It is a collection of compelling anecdotes and vivid stories about how trees serve as valuable models for our lives; how we can deal with the challenges of everyday living, and how we can grow as individuals. With the best-selling author of The Secret Life of Clams and In Search of the Old Ones, Anthony D. Fredericks, you'll venture into a redwood forest to learn about how trees show us the importance of community, you'll discover how peach trees model the power of friendship, you'll see how cherry trees exemplify the significance of calmness, and you'll learn how aspens demonstrate our need to draw strength from others. Here, trees are our mentors and our teachers. Part travelogue, part natural history, part science, and part psychology, this absorbing book shows us how we can reinvigorate our lives, reduce everyday stress, and bring out the best in ourselves when we heed the wisdom of trees.
