Ten seconds of nothing! Can they do it? Can they act like stone statues in the park? Can they simply hold their breath and not blink an eye? With a wink to the reader and a command of visual humor, feature film animator Tony Fucile demonstrates the Zen-like art of doing nothing...oops! Couldn't do it!

Creating Success in the Classroom!: Visual Organizers and How to Use Them
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then visual frameworks may be seen as being useful teaching tools. Teachers can use these graphic organizers to demonstrate how ideas and information about a specific problem, passage, text, or unit of study is related and organized. This work introduces 12 visual frameworks, and describes and demonstrates how they can be used with the whole class, small groups, or individuals. Practical tips and specific examples from several curriculum areas are provided - assessment techniques are also covered.
