Word Aware 3: Teaching Vocabulary in Small Groups for Ages 6 to 11

Word Aware 3 is a comprehensive, practical and engaging resource that focuses on teaching vocabulary and word learning skills to children aged 6 to 11 years who have vocabulary learning needs. For many children, particularly those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) or those whose home language isn't English (ELL or EAL learners), the vocabulary of the classroom can be a barrier to learning. This book outlines how to best support these children who require extra help, offering concrete, easy-to-implement activities and resources for use in small groups, to maximise the impact on learning and open up access to the curriculum. Word Aware 3: <ul> <li>Takes a highly practical, evidence-based and curriculum-focused approach to vocabulary learning that supports a broad range of learners</li> <li>Includes photocopiable and downloadable planning, intervention and evaluation resources</li> <li>Provides staff training resources and an overview video presented by the authors</li> </ul> This book can be used as an adjunct to Word Aware 1, or as an intervention on its own. Although it is most suited to children aged 6 to 11 years, it may be adapted for older students with significant learning needs. It is an essential resource for teaching assistants and learning support assistants and will also save time for special educational needs co-ordinators (SENCOs) and speech and language therapists (SaLTs) who are keen to establish effective vocabulary interventions.

Money, Time and Rationality in Max Weber (Routledge Studies in the History of Economics)

This unique study into the roots of Max Weber's Political Economy, is an intriguing read and a valuable contribution to the Weberian literature. Parsons argues that Weber's analysis is highly influenced by the Austrian School of Economics and the relationship between his critique of centrally planned economies and that of Mises.

This survey taps the increasing interest in and practice of alternative therapies for illnesses that respond poorly to modern medicine, describing how the the healing methods work and what cultures they operate from. The author explores the mysterious interaction of mind and body in healing, exemplified by the "placebo effect." Several chapters explore what has become known as alternative medicine and healing, with their basis in metaphysical philosophies or religious systems. These include acupuncture, chiropractic, homoeopathy, aromatherapy, and spiritualism. The author also considers the impact of New Age spirituality on healing.
