Opis

Educators, Parents, and Business Leaders are seeking and developing ways to support student learning through various mediums that will allow a student to explore meaningful experiences, utilize critical thinking and problem solving strategies, and analyze diverse situations within their daily interactions with others. The diversity in "I Can't Carry That in My Backpack" series provides stimulating classroom, professional development, and literary circle discussions. The vignettes within each series provide thought-provoking and debatable topics that are intended to broaden the teacher and students' outlook and perception while encouraging collaborative exchanges and thoughts. These educational and inspirational series will cultivate motivation, individuality, group interaction, collaboration, and leadership. "How children feel and interact is as important to their competence and success as how well they think. This has obviously very important implications for both how people raise their children, how they care for other people's children, and how we invest public funds. Thinking and feeling go hand in hand. It's not to say that thinking is less important, just not more important." - Dr. Jack Shonkoff, Brandeis University
