Book Description
February 2011 A young man-in Tunisia- so wanted change that he took his own life to find it. I am witnessing the collective few become, and overcome, the collective many, and a changing tide of humanity is sweeping across a region, that will affect, not only them, but the rest of the world. How? I have my theories, but let the future answer that, and then, let history question it. My story is also of change; I wanted to change the person I had become; a tormented alcoholic and drug addict and a lot of what that kind of life style brings. After a phone call to my father, my story continues on from my last book, Two Years, from the last few months in prison, to coming home, exploring, and putting into practice all of those thoughts and insights I was having about life, the universe and how to live it, and get fulfilment from it. And at the same time become a better father and partner; which in turn has lead to a more peaceful existence away from a lot of turmoil and stress, and completely rid me of the demons that had troubled me for a life time. This has lead to a platform of contentment, a budding sense of inner peace from where I can progress, even further. The story is about how I initially created this new life, through choices I had made; with the help of the unknown-to some- and unexplored forces around us. All has gone very well to date; so what more could I possibly give to my future generations, than the key to how it all became so; the way of life, in: A Message to my Family.

Family Message Journals
Author: Julie Wollman-Bonilla
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
This book shares the author's discoveries in a first-grade classroom about Family Message Journals--notebooks in which children write a message to their families each day about something they did, learned, or thought about in school, and then a family member writes a message in reply. The book is intended to spur other teachers to reflect on how they might incorporate Family Message Journals into their programs, in their own ways. The author analyzes how two primary grade teachers implement Family Message Journals in their classrooms, illustrating that the journals are a workable, realistic, and effective strategy for literacy and content learning. She focuses on journal entries of four representative students and their families; questions widespread assumptions about teaching writing; and identifies teachers' and families' roles in helping elementary students appropriate new genres, topics, and purposes for writing. The book's 7 chapters are: (1) Challenging Assumptions about Learning To Write and Teaching Writing; (2) Why Family Message Journals? The Intersection of Writing Instruction, Writing To Learn, and Family Involvement; (3) Family Message Journals in the Classroom; (4) Writing for a Purpose: Writing as a Tool across the Curriculum; (5) Writing for an Audience: The Functions of Children's Messages; (6) Families' Perspectives and Replies; and (7) Family Message Journals Document Growth. (Contains 100 references.) (SR)
