Home on the Range: John A. Lomax and His Cowboy Songs

Home on the Range: John A. Lomax and His Cowboy Songs Review

Widely acclaimed for her award-winning picture books, Deborah Hopkinson presents the amazing story of John A. Lomax, the fi rst man to popularize such great American folk songs as "Sweet Betsy from Pike," "Git Along Little Dogies" and, of course, "Home on the Range."

When John was a boy in Texas, he wrote down all he'd learned from cowboys. Years later, with the encouragement of a beloved teacher, John set out on a cross-country trip to fi nd more songs for a book. Taking along his clunky Ediphone recording device, he convinced cowboys and Gypsies to sing for him and soon he had hundreds of songs preserved for generations to come.

S. D. Schindler's gorgeous art brings the West alive in this inspiring story of discovery, which shows that if you love something as a child, you don't have to give it up as an adult!

Card Game Roundup - K-2: Math Games the Roam the Concept Range

Card Game Roundup - K-2: Math Games the Roam the Concept Range Review

In Card Game Roundup, Singing Turtle Press rustles up a passel of fun card games that parents and their little cowboys and cowgirls can play together - all the while learning valuable and interesting math skills. The book is for parents with children in grades kindergarten through second grade, but it is also aimed at homeschoolers, tutors and teachers. The games, created by veteran teachers Trudy Bortz and Josh Rappaport (author of the Parents' Choice award-winning Algebra Survival Guide), are so much fun that kids won't even realize they're learning "math" as they play. In Quicksand, players must climb up a tree and grab a branch before they fall into the deadly sand pit below. This game teaches number line concepts, addition, subtraction, and even the notion of positive and negative numbers.In Galloping Guesses, players pretend they are gypsies using "psychic powers" to guess the suit of overturned cards. By keeping track of their guesses, children make discoveries about data and probability.And in the rodeo game Bucking Broncos, children learn about patterns and functions by trying to identify patterns uniting sets of cards. If they get the pattern right, they win rodeo points; get it wrong, and they're bucked off their bronco. The book is beautifully illustrated in soft Western tones by artist Sally Blakemore (winner of the 2002 Children's Literature Choice Award), and it aligns with the Standards 2000 of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.

And its Kindred Sciences Comprising the Whole Range of Arts, Sciences and Literature as Connected With the Institution. Volume one of a two volume set. (This description is for all volumes.) Mackey knew that very "few men have the means, time, and the inclination for the purchase of numerous books, and for the close and attentive reading of them...to acquire a knowledge of all matters connected with the science, the philosophy, and the history of his Order." It was this thought that suggested to him that he should collect materials for a work which under one cover might help to enlighten his Brethren. This book is so absorbing you could sit and read it from cover to cover. It also serves as a handy reference guide for any Masonic question that may arise. Highly recommended.
