"There is no easier or more reliable method to get a student from start to proficiency than these workbooks by Structured Learning." With the step-by-step lesson plans, examples of required work, an index to pinpoint when skills are introduced and reinforced (grades 3-5 only), vocabulary builders and collaborations with other classroom curriculum, the learning becomes a natural flow of knowledge for the student rather than a difficult addition to the already rigorous elementary school learning standards. Priced between $18 and $24, these workbooks will be the best textbook investment you make in your child's learning. This is the first of six Technology workbooks designed for elementary school children. Kindergarten is a seminal year for children and computers. If they enjoy technology this year, they will love it forever. They focus on this simple concept: Make it fun and simple. Introduce those skills that are within their grasp and allow them a sense of achievement and excitement. As with every Workbook in the series, students cover vocabulary and problem-solving, as well as 32 lessons that build on each other, allowing students to learn skills required for future projects. They are introduced to keyboarding, the parts of the computer, graphics, KidPix, PowerPoint, Google Earth--and more technology to ignite their enthusiasm for all things technology! What's a typical 45-minute lesson look like? Students independently open an age-appropriate keyboard program. They practice for 10 minutes, and then exit this. Next, they open KidPix and use the text tool and the paint tool to create a St. Patrick's Day card for the person of their choice. They print and close..

My Brother’s Keeper is the perfect book for parents, grandparents, siblings, and everyone else who has an autistic child in their lives. My Brother’s Keeper is a rare and touching look at the simultaneously fragile and strong bond between autistic children and their siblings. Meet Jace and Justin. Jace is 6 and Justin, his little brother, is 5. Justin is autistic, has sensory disorders, and is the subject of Jace’s book, My Brother’s Keeper. My Brother’s Keeper is written through Jace’s eyes as a guide to explain autism to siblings or classmates. With full color pictures, Jace uses his own words to explain and describe autism. When Justin was first diagnosed they said he would always be on a two year old level, never have speech and never attend regular school. Today he is within 6 months of his grade level, has a large vocabulary and attends half day regular school and half a day of special ed. This book was written so parents and educators would know there is help. In Jace's words and vivid photos you will experience what living with autism is truly like from the perspective of a loving brother. The happy times, the sad times, and, of course, the frustrating times are all here. With the honesty that only children have, Jace takes you through both the good (Justin saying "I Love You" for the first time) and the bad (the day Justin had to be allergy tested with 100 needles). Although autism can be a daily rollercoaster for the whole family, these two children make the best of their situation. The turn of every full color page will arouse your emotions and delight readers of all ages. If there is an autistic child in your life or in a friend's life, this book is the best gift you could give. My Brother's Keeper lets autistic children and their siblings know they are not alone..

Poetry is such a perfect way to introduce kindergartners to the early stages of literacy. It's brief. It's fun. It's got rhythm! The poems in this personal poetry collection have been carefully crafted to meet the specific needs of kindergartners. Themes and topics used by most kindergarten teachers are the focus of the collection. There are poems about friendship and family, the seasons, the first and last day of school, animals, and much, much more. Most of the poems are from four to six lines long, making tracking easier for the emergent reader. The longer poems have very few words per line or include lots of repetition. In addition, an "anchor word" begins nearly every title and poem. Having a high frequency word as the first word of the title and the poem gives kinders a sense of confidence. Once they've read a word that is an old friend, off they go!.
