Kindergarten is the place where young minds blossom with each new opportunity to learn.  Yet how does a single classroom allow many different types of learners to succeed?  How, for example, do children in very different stages of writing mastery all contribute pages to a class book? How do students who have trouble "hearing" their own reading manage to read alongside their whispering peers? How do we keep our kinesthetic learners engaged in a conceptual math lesson? 

Master kindergarten teacher Cindy Middendorf shares her strategies for creating a nurturing, choice-based learning environment where all learners thrive. Packed with research-based tips, model lessons, photos, and student samples, this guide shows how to teach the kindergarten curriculum in a way that engages varied learning styles and taps multiple intelligences. Middendorf also shares expert advice on how to establish an effective classroom management system that supports differentiated learning.

Simple adjustments to our teaching, routines, and materials can maximize learning for all children - in any situation.

This book simply explains complex information about endangered species by asking questions like " Where have all the tigers gone,?" " Why are the rhinos endangered?," and "Are people saving pandas?"

Where have all the pandas gone?
From the bamboo forests of China--to near extinction. Today, there are only about 1,000 giant pandas left in the entire world.

In the well-received conversational style that sets this series apart, this book explores three basic questions about endangered species: Where have these animals gone?, Why are they disappearing?, and Are people saving them?
The Bergers explain the disappearance of not only giant pandas, but also of mountain gorillas, monkeys, tigers, rhinoceroses, and bald eagles, to name a few.
