This product was designed to help meet the newly revised 2017-2018 Social Studies Georgia Standards of Excellence. I have designed a variety of simple and engaging activities to help reteach or extend lessons on the standards. Please keep in mind that these activities assume you have already taught a lesson or lessons to help students meet the standard. These activities may help you reteach a lesson to a small group who struggled with the idea, information, concept, or skill presented in the standard; or extend the lesson to those who are ready to go beyond the standard. For the most part, these activities assume you already have some sort of text (textbook, trade books, picture books, reading passages, magazines, articles, or websites) for students to use in the classroom that served as the primary basis of your lesson. Occasionally, a reading passage is included, or the activity only requires students to use the information presented in the activity. For example, if the activity is to write an acrostic poem about Nat Love, students might need access to a passage, text, or notes from the your primary lesson about black cowboys in order to complete the activity. Generally, you will find each activity to be about one to two pages. The activities range from puzzles, graphic organizers, close reads, vocabulary games, and emoji writing prompts to summary writing activities, illustrating activities, timeline activities, poetry writing activities and more! Each activity is clearly labeled with the numeric standard and whether the activity is intended to assist you with re-teaching the lesson or extending the lesson. Most standards include at least one reteach activity and one extension. This set of activities includes: SS3H1 a - c SS3H2 a - c SS3H3 a - c SS3G1 a - b SS3G2 SS3CG1 a - c SS3E1 a - d SS3E2 SS3E3 a - d SS3E4

This book examines the phenomenon of social withdrawal in Japan, which ranges from school non-attendance to extreme forms of isolation and confinement, known as hikikomori. Based on extensive original research including interview research with a range of practitioners involved in dealing with the phenomenon, the book outlines how hikikomori expresses itself, how it is treated and dealt with and how it has been perceived and regarded in Japan over time. The author, a clinical psychologist with extensive experience of practice, argues that the phenomenon although socially unacceptable is not homogenous, and can be viewed not as a mental disorder, but as an idiom of distress, a passive and effective way of resisting the many great pressures of Japanese schooling and of Japanese society more widely. | Author: Nicolas Tajan | Publisher: Routledge | Publication Date: January 05, 2021 | Number of Pages: 272 pages | Language: English | Binding: Hardcover | ISBN-10: 0815365748 | ISBN-13: 9780815365747

This book approaches Hegel from the standpoint of what we might call the question of knowledge. Hegel, of course, had no "theory of knowledge" in the narrow and abstract sense in which it has come to be understood since Locke and Kant. "The examination of knowledge," he holds, "can only be carried out by an act of knowledge," and "to seek to know before we know is as absurd as the wise resolution of Scholasticus, not to venture into the water until he had learned to swim. " * While Hegel wrote no treatise exclusively devoted to epistemology, his entire philosophy is nonetheless a many-faceted theory of truth, and thus our title - Beyond Epistemology - is meant to suggest a return to the classical meaning and relation of the terms episteme and logos. I had originally planned to include a lengthy introduction for these essays, setting out Hegel's general view of philosophic truth. But as the papers came in, it became clear that I had chosen my contributors too well; indeed, they have all but put me out of business. In any case, it gives me great pleasure to have been able to gather this symposium of outstanding Hegel scholars, to provide for them a forum on a common theme of great importance, and especially, thanks to Arnold Miller, to have Hegel himself among them.

Rarely accessible beyond the limits of its people, Ojibway mythology is as rich in meaning and mystery, as broad, as deep, and as innately appealing as the mythologies of Greece, Rome, Egypt, and other civilizations. In Ojibway Heritage, Basil Johnston sets forth the broad spectrum of his people’s life, legends, and beliefs. Stories to be read, enjoyed, dwelt on, and freely interpreted, their authorship is perhaps most properly attributed to the tribal storytellers who have carried on the oral tradition which Basil Johnston records and preserves in this book.

Pragmatic competence is one of the aspects of language that involves knowledge beyond level of the grammar; therefore it could be taught in the class to increase students' capacity in using language in different social situations. The instructors and the students focus on linguistic knowledge rather than sociopragmatic knowledge could reduce students' proficiency in social interactions. The study attempts to tackle various issues such as to what extent the EFL instructors know how to teach pragmatic competence alongside other language skills and which approaches the instructors use for teaching pragmatic competence. This study aims at investigating how pragmatic competence is taught in English departments as well as identifying the challenges that the instructors face while teaching pragmatic competence.

I’m not a huge fan of chapter questions, for a number of reasons. The main one is that they usually direct students too much, telling them what to look for, what’s important to note. I much prefer an approach that puts more of the responsibility for thinking about the text in the students’ hands.My Pre-IB’s […]
