Author: Elson, William H.
Date: 1927-00-00
Type: Historical Materials
Subjects: English Instruction,Textbooks,Lesson Plans,Oral Language,Written Language,Grade 7,Grade 8

This textbook covers two years' work intended for grades seven and eight. The book is divided into approximately 150 carefully planned lessons for each year's work. These lessons are grouped into chapters, each composed of a series of related units that center on a common theme. The material on which conversation and written exercises are based has been selected with reference to its living interest to children and its vital relation to their experiences. The lessons are arranged so that oral discussion precedes and prepares for written expression. [For book one, see ED623128. For book two, see ED623130.]
Elementary English in Action. Grade 3

The organization of this book is based upon the principle -- generally accepted in schools today -- that every situation in the school requiring or stimulating social intercommunication or individual self-expression affords significant opportunity for developing language ability. These situations, which are vital and meaningful to the pupils, are found in the current life of the school, and particularly in the social studies and the natural science classes. In the first part of the book will be found typical units embodying these vital situations -- units taken from the fields of social science, natural science, and the general school life, and rich in opportunities for language training. While the pupil is dealing with these natural and provocative units assembled in Part I, the pupil discovers that they need certain information about the use of language and that he needs to acquire or to perfect certain skills in order to remedy faults in their verbal expression. The informational and drill material in this book is assembled mainly in Part II, where it becomes a 'Pupil's Handbook' instantly available for reference, yet out of the way when not wanted. This separation of the two aspects of English work -- the occasions for expression and the mechanics of expression -- is an outstanding feature of this series that will be endorsed by all teachers, whichever aspect they prefer to stress. The features of &quot;Elementary English in Action&quot; that teachers will appreciate may be stated briefly as they are exemplified in Part I and in Part II. [For &quot;Elementary English in Action.

Considerations for Measuring Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity in Surveys of Secondary School Students. Research Brief
Author: Clark, Caitlin M.
Date: 2022-00-00
Type: Reports - Research
Subjects: Secondary School Students,Sexual Identity,Sexual Orientation,LGBTQ People,Measures (Individuals),Surveys,Design,Data Collection

In order to further understand the experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer-plus (LGBTQ+) youth, they must be identified in surveys and data at the federal, state, and local level. Being able to identify LGBTQ+ youth in data, particularly in surveys and research about school climate and negative school experiences, including bullying, harassment, discrimination, and punitive discipline, is critical to improving school experiences and creating school environments that are safe for everyone. When these questions are not included, educators, policymakers, and researchers are unable to address the needs of LGBTQ+ youth. Although there is no one standard item for measuring sexual orientation or gender identity that is best for all situations and contexts involving youth, there are important considerations when designing surveys that can guide schools, local education agencies, state education agencies, and others toward measures of sexual orientation and gender identity that best meet their needs. This brief first discusses these considerations regarding sexual orientation and gender identity data collection in survey-based data collection. The authors discuss survey items that ask individuals to report their own sexual orientation and gender identity. For those interested in administrative data collection in schools and in other educational contexts, see GLSEN Policy's brief on inclusive data collection. In the second part of this brief, they provide specific example items for assessing sexual orientation and gender identity among youth.

The Chadsey-Spain Readers. Sixth Book
Author: Chadsey, Charles E., Ed.
Date: 1921-00-00
Type: Historical Materials
Subjects: Elementary Education,Reading Instruction,Textbooks

In the upper grades of the elementary school the purpose of the work in reading is not merely to furnish an opportunity for drill in oral expression; it should also have as a distinct aim the development of interest in good literature and should expose the child to samples of many types of English prose and verse. While in some systems it is considered preferable to emphasize in the reading period the careful study of certain selected classics, in the judgment of the editors of this series it is highly desirable that students be given an opportunity to come in contact with a more extended group of selections than is possible without the use of a school reader. This textbook is an illustrated sixth reader containing works by authors such as Booth Tarkington, Hellen Keller, and Edgar A. Guest. The editors note that many of these selections should stimulate the child's desire to read. [Cover title varies: &quot;The Chadsey-Spain Readers. Sixth Reader.&quot;]

Teacher Professional Development Challenges Faced by Rural Superintendents
Author: Cadero-Smith, Lisa A.
Date: 2020-05-00
Type: Books
Subjects: Faculty Development,Superintendents,Barriers,Teacher Supervision,Experience,Elementary Secondary Education,Educational Policy,Rural Schools

Effective teacher professional development is defined as structured professional learning activities which result in changes in teacher practice and improvements in student learning outcomes. Superintendents face common challenges unique to the rural environment which hinder the delivery of effective teacher professional development in rural school districts. These barriers must be addressed to ensure a high-quality education for all rural students. The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the common experiences and perceptions of superintendents responsible for providing teacher professional development in rural school districts. Social constructivism, interpreted through a transcendental phenomenological lens, was the theoretical framework guiding the research. The investigator interviewed 4 purposefully selected superintendents from rural, remote school districts in Western Washington state. A semi-structured interview protocol consisting of open-ended questions aligned to the study's purpose was utilized to gather data. Results showed superintendents faced inadequate fiscal resources, limited human capital, geographic isolation, and difficulties implementing effective teacher professional development in rural environments. Superintendents overcame challenges by establishing a vision and systems within existing resources and employing aligned professional development practices. Superintendents desired supports which were responsive to the unique needs of rural school districts. The findings may inform the work of rural administrators, professional development consultants, policymakers, regulatory agencies, and rural organizations. The findings may also lead to policy changes, shifts in rural school district resource allocation, and changes in rural teacher professional development delivery to ensure the educational equity of all rural students.

Foster&apos;s First Principles of Chemistry. Second Edition
Author: Foster, W.
Date: 1855-00-00
Type: Historical Materials
Subjects: Chemistry,Textbooks,Scientific Concepts,Elementary Education

This textbook aims to divest the subject of chemistry of technicalities, and to present each natural division in a strictly practical form, illustrated by diagrams and experiments so simplified as to be within the comprehension of the youth as well as the adult. The author has observed that many of our academies and schools where chemistry is taught do not have the apparatus necessary to illustrate the textbooks used, and that these text-books are not adapted to the wants of our primary schools. The teacher and pupil will soon discern that this work is practically experimental, each of the numerous experiments contained in it having been performed by the author in various ways, and the simplest mode only described.
