differentiating instruction with menus: Physic

 

I find these books to be a potential instruction books for teachers with children of advanced learning. This book deals with the subject of physics.

It covers motion, forces, energy and waves with different topics within these areas. 

The first two chapters cover choices and how to use menus in the class including products that are used in the book. These include advertisements, collage, crossword puzzles trading cards, puppets and many, many more. 

I think this would be a useful book for any teacher which has higher level students in their classroom.

I was given this book by the publisher, Westphal, in exchange for my honest review. All opinions stated are my own. 

The Jacob's Ladder Reading Comprehension Program all aim toward those students who show they have high-ability in reading comprehension. The program is an inquiry based program which leads students from understanding to the ability to critically analyze texts. After completing the lessons, students should have the ability to understand and analyze other passages.
The book begins with a Teacher's Guide to the Jacob's Ladder Reading Comprehension Program. It introduces them to the ladders which show the goals and objectives. These include consequences and Implications, Classifications, Literary Elements, Creative Synthesis, Expressing Emotions and Understanding Words. It also helps the teachers with the process of Jacob's Ladder. This includes modeling by the teacher so the students learn the inquiry and feedback system.

This is good material whether in a classroom or homeschooling. Especially for those who are not familial with creating an inquiry based program.
