Practical Teaching Methods K-6

Sparking the Flame of Learning

By: Pamela Fannin Wilkinson,Margaret A. McNutt,Esther S. Friedman

Practical Teaching Methods K-6 is designed primarily for K-6 teachers and administrators who wish to examine where they are and where they might go. Each chapter discusses the elements of good teaching in the content areas, providing real examples from real schools, followed by reflections and assessment tips. The format allows teachers to use single chapters to concentrate on a particular subject area, or to use the entire book as a professional development tool that can renew, re-energize, and reinvigorate teaching practices for individuals or for a school's faculty as a whole. Using national standards as a framework, the authors focus on all of the major content areas, including mathematics, science, social studies, technology, and more. They address issues such as professional growth, and the many difficulties faced daily by teachers, while focusing on instructional strengths that emerge when thoughtful and curious teachers guide attentive and curious students. Teachers now have one clear Handbook that covers virtually all the curricular areas in grades K-6.

Neonatal Meningitis

By: Pamela A. Davies,P. T. Rudd

Meningitis is an uncommon but serious illness at any age, and during the first few weeks of life it poses a particular hazard with high mortality and a considerable risk to survivors of permanent damage to the developing brain. This book comprehensively reviews bacterial, fungal and viral forms of the illness. Epidemiology and comparisons of maternally and environmentally derived infections are included, along with a view of the developing brain and host defence mechanisms. A review of experimental bacterial meningitis is provided, together with a discussion of its relevance for clinical and laboratory diagnosis, and for antimicrobial and supportive management. Prospects for the future in terms of early diagnosis, management and prevention are also addressed. In its collation of material from such a wide range of literature sources, this is a vital reference for all clinicians with an interest in the problems of meningitis in early life.
