And until now, there has been no formal professional development program designed specifically for those filling this essential role. "The Paraeducator in the Elementary School" more than adequately fills this gap. The workbook to accompany the facilitator's manual is a resource that will be used throughout the year. Its twelve chapters correspond to the twelve training modules in the facilitator's manual. Contains reproducible notebook pages.

The fifteenth edition of The Chicago Manual of Style is the most extensive revision in twenty years. The Manual--more comprehensive and easier to use than ever before--remains the essential reference for authors, editors, proofreaders, indexers, copywriters, designers, and publishers in any field. Every aspect of coverage has been examined and brought up to date--from publishing formats to editorial style and method, from documentation of electronic sources to book design and production, and everything in between.

All chapters are written for the electronic age, with advice on how to prepare and edit manuscripts online, handle copyright and permissions issues raised by new technologies, use the latest methods of preparing mathematical copy, and cite electronic and online sources. A new chapter covers American English grammar and usage, outlining the grammatical structure of English, showing how to put words and phrases together to achieve clarity, and identifying common errors. And, to make it easier to search for information, each numbered paragraph throughout the Manual is now introduced by a descriptive heading.
