＜p＞This essential text for primary trainees and teachers examines the key skill of writing beyond the earliest school years. Teaching writing involves much more than simply teaching the mechanics of spelling, grammar and punctuation, important though these are. There are particular issues around writing in school, including the fact that children’s writing consistently lags behind their reading in external tests such as SATs, boys’ relative lack of success and teachers’ lack of confidence in modelling writing. This book addresses these topics as well as focusing on other pertinent practice issues such as working with proficient writers, engaging disengaged writers and working with children who have EAL and SEN.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞Designed for Adult Players＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞The repertoire for simple eight-note percussion instruments is often very limited.

In this book, we have adapted more complex song, mainly folk and romantic ballads, for a simple diatonic instrument with just eight notes in one octave. The melodies had to be simplified, but the rhythm was preserved, making these popular folk tunes playable on an eight-note tongue drum.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Although the title suggests this book is for an 8-note drum, all the songs can also be played on 11-, 13-, or 15-key tongue drums. The songbook includes beloved tunes from England, Ireland, Scotland, the United States, and Australia, offering a rich and diverse selection for players of all levels.

＜p＞In a small Chinese city near Shanghai, a woman expat in her mid twenties confesses love to a man twice her age. He is resistant at first. Does she have daddy issues? For him, his younger lady friend is almost a forbidden fruit, but deep down, he harbors a deeper attraction, love and affection for her. Does he keep his feelings repressed?＜/p＞ ＜p＞WARNING! This short story contains graphic and explicit sexual descriptions between consenting adults. It is only intended for mature readers of legal age, Here is an excerpt ....＜/p＞ ＜p＞Elle wiped tears from her eyes with one hand, and she had her other arm slung over my shoulder and around my neck. She sniffled and sobbed a little, but the both of us were a bit beyond tipsy. It was 1 AM, and we were sitting on a wooden bench outside of a closed shopping mall in small Chinese city ? roughly a 40 minute bullet train ride from Shanghai. The main expat bar in town had shut down for the night, and Elle and I had opted to not go with her friends to a karaoke club or any "after party" dance locations. Those places were always too loud with people always puking in the bathrooms. Disgusting. Also, those places are well known to overcharge for fake alcohol, and black label Jiminy Welker tastes more like death than whiskey. Never mind that people have died in China from fake alcohol.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Anyhow, let's get back to the situation. Why was Elle crying?＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Beau, why can't you chase women your own age?" She moaned, tilting her head and leaning it onto my shoulder.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I let out a gasp. "Look around? Do you see any single middle-aged women around here?" You see, I was 45 and Elle was 25.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Elle half hearted punched me in the thigh ? before going back to wiping the tears from her eyes. "I see plenty of Chinese ones."＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Um, fuck no. The last thing I need is a girlfriend like that; all we would have in common is the English language, and all of her cousins, uncles, and aunties would look at me as a free source of tutoring for them and their kids." I glanced away for a moment. "Tried that once and only once." I slowly shook my head. "Dear God, never again. Ever."＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Yes, I get it. It's why I'm not into Chinese boys. I am a woman and not a goddamned trophy." She took tissue out of her small, black leather purse. Then, she blew her nose and tossed snotty piece of paper to pavement by her feet. Lifting her head, she stared me straight in the eye, and even in the dim street light of post-midnight, I could see the reddish tint her eyes combining emotional tears with a night of moderately drinking whiskey and soda. "But, why in hell," she punched my thigh three times for emphasis, "are you lusting and chasing after Luka? That Serbian bitch is psycho!"＜/p＞ ＜p＞"I am not chasing her, as you just put it. Plus, she's also your best friend."＜/p＞ ＜p＞"I know that. Doesn't stop her from being crazy as shit."＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Um," I gulped. "She's kind of punk rock, sassy, and plays the guitar?" I actually winced while waiting for Elle's retort.＜/p＞ ＜p＞"I'm all that too! Minus the guitar, though." Instead of punching my leg, I could feel the white-knuckle rage of Elle clenching a fist full of loose denim dangerously close to my testicles. "And how about Tanya?" She said through gritted teeth. She's actually two years younger than me!"＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Do you see me dating her?"＜/p＞ ＜p＞"No, but I see the way you look at her." She wiped away a few more tears and blew her nose a little. "Why do you never look at me that way?"A look of profound jealousy came over her face.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Fish Stories【電子書籍】[ Frank Koffend ]

＜p＞In the 17 chapters contained in "Fish Stories," author Frank Koffend covers a lot of ground. Having spent almost the entirety of his eight - plus decades on this earth fishing (or learning how), there is a lot to be learned in the written material here. Koffend begins by telling the reader a little bit about himself ? he grew up in Central Wisconsin where, for little boys, fishing was as common as playing marbles at recess. Being the fifth of five kids, Frank was given almost complete freedom by his mother (some readers might be shocked to learn of his exploits on 39-mile Lake Winnebago in a tiny boat, no life jackets, as 9-and-10- year-olds. When Frank was 14, he and a friend rode bicycles to Canada. The next year he went with the same friend on a hitchhiking adventure ? approximately 6,500 miles from Wisconsin to Los Angeles, down to Mexico and up the Pacific Coast Highway to Portland, then back through Idaho, Montana and Yellowstone to his home in Wisconsin. The following year, when Frank was 16, he ran a Pitch-Til-You-Win game at a traveling carnival. Being the fifth kid, and nine years behind his identical twin sisters, Frank felt he was obviously a mistake but made the best of it by promising himself one of the finest, and most adventurous - lives possible. In Chapter one of his book, Frank takes fishing history way back to medieval times, when Dame Juliane Berner wrote the first and most complete book about fishing that had been circulated to the masses. In chapter two, though, we learn about the Chinese in the fourth century who used silk lines to fish while trolling. He also describes how hooks have evolved, from the indigenous people of the Americas using chert and bone, to European blacksmiths forging them from metal. The history of fishing line and hooks is a lot more interesting than it may sound. In chapter three, one of the most famous fishermen of our time, Sir Isaac Walton, mentions a new invention briefly in his 1655 work called "The Compleat Angler" something called a "wheel," which is actually one of the first reels. A century later, a man named Onesimus Ustonson advertised his "multiplying brass winches" for fishing in 1770. By the 1800s there were precision reels on the market, made by Germans, and the sport of fishing quickly became accessible to the common man. In the following chapters Koffend covers everything from artificial baits and lures to the companies who produced them and the men who created them. One particularly entertaining chapter features the Mepps squirrel-tail spinner lure and how the company's owner still pays the same for a squirrel tail as he did decades ago. Chapters nine and ten cover the baskets used over the years to put fish in, as well as the outboard motors that kept the fishing boats moving along on the water. Chapter eleven covers some "really big fish" and Frank's encounters with them, while chapter twelve is all about a topic that is dear to the author's heart ? the love that kids have always had for fishing. In the pages that follow, Frank spins tales of canoeing the dangerous Canadian boundary waters of the Quetico and beyond (all with a line in the water), as well as his more genteel times as a youth summering on Lake Winnebago. It was there that he learned the ins and outs of sailboat racing (all while usually keeping a line in the water). Koffend's last few chapters highlight his time on a property he co-owned with a friend on "The Pike" in Wisconsin, how the Henry and Cremora Rogers house in Appleton, Wisconsin (his current northern home) has a connection with sport fishing, and a few memories of some his finest pescatarian experiences. This book is one that anyone can enjoy, even if they've never picked up a pole.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Lost in the Jungle【電子書籍】[ Paul du Chaillu ]

＜p＞MY Dear Young Folks,ーIn the first book which I wrote for you, we traveled together through the Gorilla Country, and saw not only the gigantic apes, but also the cannibal tribes which eat men. In the second book we continued our hunting, and met leopards, elephants, hippopotami, wild boars, great serpents, etc., etc. We were stung and chased by the fierce Bashikouay ants, and plagued by flies. Last spring, your friend Paul, not satisfied with writing for young folks, took it into his head to lecture before them. When I mentioned the subject to my acquaintances, many of them laughed at the notion of my lecturing to you, and a few remarked, "This is another of your queer notions." I did not see it!!! I thought I would try. Thousands of young folks came to your friend Paul's lectures in Boston, Brooklyn, and New York; not only did my young friends come, but a great many old folks were also seen among them. The intelligent, eager faces of his young hearers, their sparkling eyes, spoke to him more eloquently than words could do, and told him that he had done well to go into the great jungle of Equatorial Africa, and that they liked to hear what he had done and what he had seen. When he asked the girls and boys of New York if he should write more books for them, the tremendous cheers and hurrahs they gave him in reply told him that he had better go to work. When, at the end of his third lecture, he made his appearance in the old clothes he had worn in Africa, and said he would be happy to shake hands with his young hearers, the rush then made assured him that they were his friends. Oh! how your hearty hand-shaking gladdened the heart of your friend Paul; he felt so happy as your small hands passed in and out of his! Before writing this new volume, I went to my good and estee-med friends, my publishers in Franklin Square, and asked them what they thought of a new book for Young Folks. "Certainly," they said; "by all means, Friend Paul. Write a new book, for STORI-ES OF THE GORILLA COUNTRY and WILD LIFE UNDER THEEQUATOR are in great demand." I immediately took hold of my old journals, removed the African dust from them, and went to work, and now we are going to be "LOST INTHE JUNGLE"＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Their parents were dead, and Helen, who was twenty years older than Philip and was really his half-sister, was all the mother he had ever known. And he had never envied other boys their mothers, because Helen was so kind and clever and dear. She gave up almost all her time to him; she taught him all the lessons he learned; she played with him, inventing the most wonderful new games and adventures.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Defying Adversity as I Race to Achieve My Dreams: There Is Nothing Like Being Believed【電子書籍】[ Jennifer Wood ]

＜p＞＜strong＞The world sometimes asks what we're made of. It sometimes dishes out problems that put our characters and strengths on display.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞I was a white female who grew up in a small California town, with a brilliant and popular college professor father and a brilliant and nurturing mother. My paternal grandfather made his mark in several impressive businesses, and Mom's father was a Harvard-trained lawyer. Her mother was a grandchild of a U.S. congressman and a member of one of Bangor, Maine's most admired families.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Such academic and career successes thrilled me. Even as a child, I wanted those kinds of successes for me. Not just for a presumed future husband, but also for me. Why not me? Why not for girls and women, too? I was confused and then mad as hell about the traditional "female role" that was expected of virtually all females.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I was ambitious as all get-out and never doubted girls and women were as smart, talented, and strong as boys and men. Females also made babies. What a package of gifts we supplied!＜/p＞ ＜p＞As the years went by, I tried to push past my anger at the limitations placed on females. Instead, I excitedly began to launch my adulthood. Just watch me!＜/p＞ ＜p＞Initially, the world seemed to bless my excitement and determination. I could swear rose petals fell from the sky. I set lofty goals that sometimes became even loftier. I mean, as a 21-year-old, I was drawn to help a new, not-yet-sworn-in U.S. Senator, whose family had just been in a dreadful automobile accident. I moved from California to Washington, D.C. and became his first "intern." The Senator was 30 years old then. He's 81 now: Joe Biden, President of the United States. Sweet.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I grew up enthralled by the Kennedys. In fact, I was so devastated by President Kennedy's assassination when I was 12 that I set a goal the day after he died to somehow get to know members of the Kennedy family and establish a career path among them and their peers. (As you'll see, I did quite well.) I'll even take you on my sail with the Kennedy family, on their boat, near the Kennedy Compound. Nice.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Then everything started to collapse. Dear God, No! Why? Two men did terrible things to me. I later got a disease that doctors couldn't diagnose. The symptoms were dreadful and went on and off for years. Doctors made fun of my descriptions; they stated or implied I needed psychological helpーin an era when seeing a psychotherapist was frowned upon and could be career-threatening.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I became a rat caught in a maze just after I thought my life was a glowing wonder.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Was something wrong with me? Was I stoical and brave in the face of all this, or was I in denial about the proper role of females or, maybe, was some other message trying to find me? You will find answers, verifiable answers, to such questions as you read this book.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Doctors, psychotherapists, and patients can learn important lessons by absorbing what I struggled to learn.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

With the help of a friend who sees potential in that which others have grown to give up on, he finds trust and the courage that reignites the spark that had once been lost.

＜p＞With punk tunes to die for, raucous gigs to get the world jumping and lyrics that resonate with a generation, All Time Low are putting the power back into power-pop and owning stages across the globe.＜br /＞ In 2003, four best friends, Alex Gaskarth, Jack Barakat, Rian Dawson and Zack Merrick, got together in high school, bonding over their love of Blink-182 and soon set off on a path that would emulate their heroes. The group was signed before graduating and soon found they were breaking out as Vans Warped Tour favourites.＜br /＞ Songs like 'Dear Maria, Count Me In' brought the band firmly onto the world stage as the group established itself as one of the most exciting on the circuit, touring as headliners in their own right as well as supporting seminal genre acts Green Day and Blink-182.＜br /＞ The group's status as serious pop-punk heroes was further strengthened by the superbly-received 2012 album, Don't Panic, packed to the edges with blistering skate-punk riffs, infectious vocal harmonies and sparkling guitar play. With their 2015 album Future Hearts having debuted at No. 2 in the US Billboard 200 and topping the UK album charts, All Time Low have proved they're here to stay.＜br /＞ Affectionate, in-depth and packed with more inside stories than you can shake a drumstick at, Don't Party, Let's Panic tells the unofficial story behind four boys who were destined to become the greatest thing to come out of Towson, Baltimore. The time for superstardom is nigh for a quartet whose party-loving ways and instant rapport with their fanbase are as strong as those irresistible riffs and melodies.＜br /＞ The future is theirs.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Gangs of Glasgow True Crime From the Streets【電子書籍】[ Robert Jeffrey ]

＜p＞In the twenty-first century, Glasgow is still a city living down a fearsome reputation for crime. And for some citizens of the Dear Green Place, brawling is in the blood and gang warfare is a way of life. The stinking deprivation of the Gorbals and the East End, deprivation that helped spawn pre-war gangs like the Billy Boys, the Norman Conks and the Redskins, is largely gone, but in each era new gangs have risen to take their place. Battles over turf and control of the drugs trade still regularly make the headlines. Now newly updated, Gangs of Glasgow takes an in-depth look at the gripping evolution of the city's gangs from the days of the Penny Mob, through the extortion, slashings and street fighting of the Thirties to the smart-suited men of violence of the modern day.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Theory of Evolution is a Joke【電子書籍】[ Danny Erhardt ]

＜p＞DANNY ERHARDT, a mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, has sought the truth and fortuitously found it. You can too, if you seek it with all your heart and love the truth more than the opinions and conclusions that are already in your head. The lies of Satan ("that great deceiver who goes forth to deceive the whole world") cover this earth like a blanket, and people believe whatever they are taught. (Evolution is one of them...) What lies have you been taught? Have you learned to hold dear?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Danny is father to a half dozen boys and girls, grandfather to a little more than that, a successful small business owner and has a Masters Degree in the Truth. (Which you won't find offered at any of our Colleges or Universities.) (Masters Degrees in lies are easily obtainable.)＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Creation/Evolution debate is over. Evolution lost. It is so stupid, idiotic, asinine, laughable, ridiculous and absurd, and so scientifically impossible according to the LAWS of science and all of the facts and evidence that it is literally insane. (Just read this book and you will see.) We've all been lied to. And the liars unfortunately control 95% of the national media, educational/Democrap indoctrination system and entertainment industry so they control the dissemination of dis-information in our society. And if, like me., you are sick and tired of hearing those idiots laugh at and mock anyone who is not as stupid and brainwashed as them and therefore does not buy into their unscientific slop, then you will love how we turn the tables on them herein.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Well, thank you so much for picking up a copy of this book or considering doing the same. It's called the truth. And may God (you know, the actual Creator of all of this) richly bless you and yours.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
