Review:This is fun, because the children already know the Nursery Rhymes....and we can share with each other. As a tutor, I love these books because I don't have to read it all and it helps me see how their reading is improving. Read more

Review:Review of `Savage Inequalities: Children in America's Schools' by Jonathan Kozol published by HarperCollins of New York in 1992.

Reviewer Dr W. P. Palmer

I am reviewing this book more than ten years since I read it, as it was formative in my thinking and teaching about the education system in the United States of America. Anyone who has taught for a time in any nation on earth knows of the huge inequalities throughout education systems. Over the past fifty years, I have taught in s... Read more

Review:Anyone who does any kind of teaching should read this. It of course helps with my work with young people from poor families (both rural and urban), but I have learned tricks that even work with my medical students and medicine residents.
Great educator, who knows how to write. Read more

Review:Very basic, almost too basic - but my 3yo really enjoyed it and didn't get bored with too much detail. If you're looking for more in depth bible stories this is probably not for you. But it's good for very small kids just being introduced to the Bible. Read more

Review:This curriculum is great for hands-on history learning. My kids love the activities and they remember what they read because they get to have a feel with how history was by using the maps and doing the activities! Read more

Review:We use this series in our charter school. The students love it so much that many of them have asked their parents to purchase them a personal copy to keep at home so they can read beyond what class time allowed. Read more

I strongly recommend this book for any instructor in... Read more

Review:My son gave me a Chromebook to replace my Netbook. He helped me prepare a slide presentation at work and transfer it to Slides. I understand it more now. I took the presentation with a small projector to a realtor function. It went well (except they said I could have shown it from a thumb drive. My other szon got a Slimport so I can show the presentation from my Nexus. Also, printing from the cloud has been FD last and easy. Thank you! Read more

Review:In the book High Tech Heretic by Clifford Stoll, I only ask one question. Is it necessary that people write books about something that is extremely unnecessary in today's society? Honestly, this book is a thought of how someday teachers may be replaced by a computer. Is it necessary? There will not be a single a soul that will allow that to happen. Now, true that maybe possible in a long stretch, but today's society is not going to allow that to happen. The book also focuses on the use of ... Read more

Review:These books (two of them) covers every subject you always wanted to know more about. Great for Doctor's office or red lights. The material is short and full of knowledge.

I great present.
