A relatively small number of words make up the great majority of text students will come across in the early elementary school years. If students can recognize these high frequency words at a glance, they will have greater access to all the knowledge that awaits them. The best way to teach sight words is through practice and repetition. This book will help increase familiarity through games and activities designed to boost students’ recognition of the top 100 sight words! 48 pages.
Jill prepared this book for beaders of all levels, and it really is just that. Projects move between stitches, skill sets and learning levels, and the instructions are clear and easy enough that any beader may work them, though some may require a bit of advance familiarity with the techniques used.
Giorgio Agamben is a philosopher well known for his brilliance and erudition, as well as for the difficulty and diversity of his seventeen books. The interest which his Homo Sacer sparked in America is likely to continue to grow for a great many years to come. Giorgio Agamben: A Critical Introduction presents the complexity and continuity of Agamben's philosophy—and does so for two separate and distinct audiences. It attempts to provide readers possessing little or no familiarity with Agamben's writings with points of entry for exploring them. For those already well acquainted with Agamben's thought, it offers a critical analysis of the achievements that have marked it.
Ancient Greek Scholarship: A Guide to Finding, Reading...
Ancient greek scholarship constitutes a precious resource for classicists, but one that is underutilized because graduate students and even mature scholars lack familiarity with its conventions.
Symplectic geometry is a central topic of current research in mathematics. Indeed, symplectic methods are key ingredients in the study of dynamical systems, differential equations, algebraic geometry, topology, mathematical physics and representations of Lie groups. This book is a true introduction to symplectic geometry, assuming only a general background in analysis and familiarity with linear algebra. It starts with the basics of the geometry of symplectic vector spaces. Then, symplectic manifolds are defined and explored.
