More Greek and Latin Roots: Teaching Vocabulary to Improve Reading Comprehension (Grades 4-8)
This book helps students learn to break down the parts of words they don't know in order to figure them out instead of just skipping over them. The activities in this book incorporate all levels of literacy so that students will be able to transfer the vocabulary they learn to their speech, writing, and reading comprehension. Each unit has two lessons, each of which takes a week. Each lesson has four activity pages for students: a take-home word list to study; a sets of hands-on vocabulary sort cards to match up for practice; a set of Read-Around-Review cards for small group review, and a brief quiz. Every two weeks there is a Review Test. Answers for exercises and tests are provided.
It all began with an idea Frank Warren had for a community art project. He began handing out postcards to strangers and leaving them in public places -- asking people to write down a secret they had never told anyone and mail it to him, anonymously. The response was overwhelming. The secrets were both provocative and profound, and the cards themselves were works of art -- carefully and creatively constructed by hand. Addictively compelling, the cards reveal our deepest fears, desires, regrets, and obsessions. Frank calls them "graphic haiku," beautiful, elegant, and small in structure but powerfully emotional.
Presents the different ways grandfathers show their grandchildren love, from putting extra marshmallows in hot chocolate to sending cards and telling stories.

A Short Course in Medical Terminology
This reprint of the first edition of A Short Course in Medical Terminology bears the word Enhanced in its title for good reason. Not only have production glitches, which find their way into every first edition, been corrected, but we have also decided to include a valuable addition to the Student CD-ROM: Stedman's Medical Terminology Flash Cards.
Stedman's Medical Terminology Flash Cards are an easy-to-use educational tool for learning and reinforcing medical terminology. Questions are presented in multiple-choice, spelling-bee, matching, and fill-in-the-blank exercises.
