Disciplina con amor en el aula Tocando el corazón de tus alumnos. Guía para maestros Rosa Barocio

What happened to students who used to respect and admire their teachers? What does it mean to be a good teacher? Do they come prepared every day? Are they popular with the students? Being a good teacher has never been easy, but in this day and age, teaching has become an even greater challenge. Anyone can stand in front of a group of students and call themselves a teacher, but only a handful merit the name. To be a teacher in its entirety is a privilege that you earn through assisting your students' growth while helping them apply themselves. Our society urges teachers to be flexible, open, and interested in a world with rapidly changing technology and how it is applied in the classroom. Rosa Barocio, with practical advice and a sense of humor, dedicates this book to teachers invested in revamping their teaching styles and not settling to be a great teacher, but an extraordinary one. They understand the responsibility they hold and that since their students look up to them, it's their job to inspire them.

Summary

Rosa Barocio is certified in Montessori education and Waldorf education and has more than 30 years of experience working with children, training teachers, directing schools, and advising parents. She holds

La urdimbre sexista Violencia de género en la escuela primaria Emilia Moreno Sánchez

Featuring the experiences of several girls who have been the victims of abuse and violence, this exploration argues that in the face of what is a growing and serious social problem, it's necessary to change from a model in which power relations and hierarchies are prioritized toward one that emphasizes dialogue, liberty, and mutual respect in the economic, cultural, and educational spheres. The research backing this study was spurred by the belief that the seeds of gender inequality and violence are planted early on in child development and the conviction that these can be combated at that level as well. The guidelines and tools for action provided in the book are as useful for educators as they are for families, who will be able to recognize and work against violence against their daughters.

Summary

Emilia Moreno Sánchez is a professor in the department of education at the University of Huelva, Spain. Her primary areas of research are reading habits, gender and education, and health education.

Eduquemos a nuestros hijos (2nd Edition) Recetas practicas de la cocina de la educacion Jose Luis Navajo

Mimicking the style of a cookbook, this thought-provoking guide uses a recipe format to present parents with the strategies and tools to raise well-mannered children. Discussing topics such as how to make sure all of a child’s needs are met and ways to avoid authoritarianism and anger, these handy “recipes” liken rewards and punishments to candy and medicine and the word “No” to an injection of vitamins. A Christian element is also seen in some of the recipes, as David and Job are used as examples of parenting dos and don’ts. Imitando el estilo de un libro de cocina, esta guía que invita la reflexión usa un formato de recetas para presentar a los padres las estrategias y herramientas para criar hijos bien educados. Discutiendo temas como las maneras de suplir adecuadamente las necesidades del niño y evitar el autoritarismo y la ira, estas “recetas” útiles comparan los premios y los castigos con las golosinas y los antibióticos y la palabra “No” con una inyección de vitaminas. Se nota también un elemento cristiano en algunas de las recetas, en las cuales se usan David y Job como ejemplos de las cosas que se deben y que no se deben hacer como padres.

Un niño afortunado (4th Edition) De prisonero en Auschwitz a juez de la Corte Internacional Thomas Buergenthal

Thomas Buergenthal's life has been a difficult journey from the moment he was born to his German Jewish parents in 1934, until he became a judge on the World Court in 2000. Between those two dates, he survived Nazi camps, became educated in the United States, and dedicated his life's work to international law and the defense of human rights. This is a work of exceptional humanity, lucidity, tenderness, and tolerance, and his reflections on the circumstances that made possible his survival are of an extraordinary human quality.

Ésta es una obra de una humanidad, lucidez, ternura y tolerancia excepcionales, y sus reflexiones sobre las circunstancias que permitieron su supervivencia son de una calidad humana extraordinaria.

Recognizing that the ability to communicate clearly and convincingly in written form is key to future success and opportunity, this educational manual offers both a theoretical and a methodological approach to the complex process of teaching writing.

Though the data and case studies examined in the book are particular to Spain, the lessons and their far-reaching implications can be applied to any educational context.

¿Por qué voy a la escuela? La educación obligatoria Anne de La Roche Saint-Andre

From war and death to school and gender equality, the Sociedad series discusses many serious issues in a way that can be easily understood by children. Although many of the situations and examples are specific to Mexico, these books can be applied to a general readership, particularly one of Hispanic origin.

Discussing topics concerning school that cause many children anxiety and curiosity, this examination answers such questions as Do I have to go to school? What happens if I don't get along with my teacher or classmates? and What if I get bad grades? Explaining these answers in ways easily understood by children, this guide utilizes modern and classic stories, question-and-answer sections, and real-life examples. Also included is information on the history, laws, and political decisions associated with schools.

Desde la guerra y la muerte hasta la escuela y la equidad de género, la serie Sociedad aborda muchos temas serios en una manera fácil de comprender para los niños. Aunque muchas situaciones y ejemplos están adaptados a México, los libros de esta serie pueden ser aplicados por lectores generales, especialmente los de origen hispano.
