Reed is leading his best life: hes just kissed the boy of his dreams, his band is finally taking off, and hes a shoo-in to getting elected as next years Student Council president.

Title: All Learning Is Social and Emotional: Helping Students Develop Essential Skills for the Classroom and Beyond

Author: Dominique Smith, Douglas Fisher, Nancy Frey

Narrator: Kim Handysides

Format: Unabridged

Length: 05:51:30

Language: English

Release date: 08-19-24

Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC

Genres: Non-Fiction, Education

Summary:

While social and emotional learning (SEL) is most familiar as compartmentalized programs separate from academics, the truth is, all learning is social and emotional. What teachers say, the values we express, the materials and activities we choose, and the skills we prioritize all influence how students think, see themselves, and interact with content and with others.

If you teach kids rather than standards, and if you want all kids to get what they need to thrive, Nancy Frey, Douglas Fisher, and Dominique Smith offer a solution: a comprehensive, five-part model of SEL that's easy to integrate into everyday content instruction, no matter what subject or grade level you teach. You'll learn the hows and whys of:

- Building students' sense of identity and confidence in their ability to learn, overcome challenge, and influence the world around them.

- Helping students identify, describe, and regulate their emotional responses.

- Promoting the cognitive regulation skills critical to decision making and problem solving.

- Fostering students' social skills, including teamwork and sharing, and their ability to establish and repair relationships.

- Equipping students to becoming informed and involved citizens.

Along with a toolbox of strategies for addressing 33 essential competencies, you'll find real-life examples highlighting the many opportunities for social and emotional learning within the K12 academic curriculum. All Learning is Social and Emotional is an invaluable resource for educators and parents. Childrens social and emotional development is too important to be an add-on or an afterthought, too important to be left to chance. Use this book's integrated SEL approach to help your students build essential skills that will serve them in the classroom and throughout their lives.

Title: Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations

Author: David R. Montgomery

Narrator: Tim Lundeen

Format: Unabridged

Length: 12:05:43

Language: English

Release date: 08-19-24

Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC

Genres: Science & Technology, Animals & Nature, Biology & Chemistry

Summary:

Dirt, soil, call it what you want, it's everywhere we go. It is the root of our existence, supporting our feet, our farms, our cities. This fascinating yet disquieting audiobook finds, however, that we are running out of dirt, and it's no laughing matter. An engaging natural and cultural history of soil that sweeps from ancient civilizations to modern times, Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations explores the compelling idea that we are, and have long been, using up Earth's soil. Once bare of protective vegetation and exposed to wind and rain, cultivated soils erode bit by bit, slowly enough to be ignored in a single lifetime but fast enough over centuries to limit the lifespan of civilizations.

A rich mix of history, archaeology and geology, Dirt traces the role of soil use and abuse in the history of Mesopotamia, Ancient Greece, the Roman Empire, China, European colonialism, Central America, and the American push westward. We see how soil has shaped us and we have shaped soil as society after society has risen, prospered, and plowed through a natural endowment of fertile dirt. David R. Montgomery sees in the recent rise of organic and no-till farming the hope for a new agricultural revolution that might help us avoid the fate of previous civilizations.

Narrator: Brian Arens

Format: Unabridged

Length: 07:45:04

Language: English

Release date: 08-19-24

Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC

Genres: Non-Fiction, Psychology

Summary:

A chalice of wisdom for our time. (Ernest L. Rossi, PhD, C.J. Jung Institute of Los Angeles)

Milton H. Erickson has been called the most influential hypnotherapist of our time. Part of his therapy was his use of teaching tales, which through shock, surprise, or confusion - with genius use of questions, puns, and playful humor - helped people to see their situations in a new way. In this audiobook Sidney Rosen has collected over 100 of the tales. Presented verbatim and accompanied by Dr. Rosen's commentary, they are grouped under such headings as Motivating Tales, Reframing, and Capturing the Innocent Eye.

My Voice Will Go with You is skillfully narrated by Brian Arens, an Audible listener favorite.

Title: From Behaving to Belonging: The Inclusive Art of Supporting Students Who Challenge Us

Author: Julie Causton, Kate MacLeod

Narrator: Vicki-Jo Eva

Format: Unabridged

Length: 05:11:13

Language: English

Release date: 08-19-24

Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC

Genres: Non-Fiction, Education

Summary:

Challenging behavior is one of the most significant issues educators face. Though it may seem radical to use words like love, compassion, and heart when we talk about behavior and discipline, the compassionate and heartfelt words, actions, and strategies teachers employ in the classroom directly shape who students areand who they will become. But how can teaching from the heart translate into effective supports and practices for students who exhibit challenging behavior?

In From Behaving to Belonging: : The Inclusive Art of Supporting Students Who Challenge Us, Julie Causton and Kate MacLeod detail how teachers can shift from a behavior management mindset (that punishes students for bad behavior or rewards students for good or compliant behavior) to an approach that supports all studentseven the most challenging oneswith kindness, creativity, acceptance, and love.

Causton and MacLeod's approach

- Focuses on students' strengths, gifts, and talents.

- Ignites students' creativity and sense of self-worth.

- Ensures that students' social, emotional, and academic needs are met.

- Prompts teachers to rethink challenging behavior and how they support their students.

- Helps teachers identify barriers to student success in the cultural, social, and environmental landscape.

- Inspires teachers to reconnect with their core values and beliefs about students and teaching.

We need to transform our classrooms into places of love. To that end, this book represents a paradigm shift from a punitive mindset to a strengths-based, loving approach and encourages the radical act of creating more inclusive and caring schools.

Title: How We Know What Isn't So: The Fallibility of Human Reason in Everyday Life

Author: Thomas Gilovich

Narrator: Dan Gallagher

Format: Unabridged

Length: 07:23:58

Language: English

Release date: 08-19-24

Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC

Genres: Non-Fiction, Psychology

Summary:

Thomas Gilovich offers a wise and readable guide to the fallacy of the obvious in everyday life.

When can we trust what we believe - that teams and players have winning streaks, that flattery works, or that the more people who agree, the more likely they are to be right - and when are such beliefs suspect?

Thomas Gilovich offers a guide to the fallacy of the obvious in everyday life. Illustrating his points with examples, and supporting them with the latest research findings, he documents the cognitive, social, and motivational processes that distort our thoughts, beliefs, judgments and decisions. In a rapidly changing world, the biases and stereotypes that help us process an overload of complex information inevitably distort what we would like to believe is reality. Awareness of our propensity to make these systematic errors, Gilovich argues, is the first step to more effective analysis and action.
