The untold story of the root cause of America's education crisis--and the seemingly endless cycle of multigenerational poverty. It was only after years within the education reform movement that Natalie Wexler stumbled across a hidden explanation for our country's frustrating lack of progress when it comes to providing every child with a quality education. The problem wasn't one of the usual scapegoats: lazy teachers, shoddy facilities, lack of accountability. It was something no one was talking about: the elementary school curriculum's intense focus on decontextualized reading comprehension "skills" at the expense of actual knowledge. In the tradition of Dale Russakoff's The Prize and Dana Goldstein's The Teacher Wars, Wexler brings together history, research, and compelling characters to pull back the curtain on this fundamental flaw in our education system--one that fellow reformers, journalists, and policymakers have long overlooked, and of which the general public, including many parents, remains unaware. But The Knowledge Gap isn't just a story of what schools have gotten so wrong--it also follows innovative educators who are in the process of shedding their deeply ingrained habits, and describes the rewards that have come along: students who are not only excited to learn but are also acquiring the knowledge and vocabulary that will enable them to succeed. If we truly want to fix our education system and unlock the potential of our neediest children, we have no choice but to pay attention.

Do you know the value of a human life? Do you know the value of YOUR human life? Do you desperately try to make yourself disappear - to fit in to the point you no longer recognize yourself? You've endured a lot. Your struggles do not define you, though they did help create you. You are confident but unsure, too. You are bright and full of ideas but sometimes life gets the best of you. You want to be a better version of yourself. You want to understand why those things happened. You long to make sense of it all. You want to be an uplifting force for your family and friends. You get overwhelmed sometimes in this noisy, fast-paced society. You are kind but you are not weak. You want others to know that you are more than what you've been through. You just want to feel known - most of all by yourself. Dear Mirror is dedicated to anyone seeking the courage to rediscover who they are. Broken into four parts: Convex, Refraction, Concave, and Reflection, this collection of poetry and prose explores some of life's most difficult challenges - mental health issues, relationship struggles, and societal standards. Dear Mirror is a book of empowerment poetry that will guide the reader to the true power that comes with hope, perseverance, and owning one's true identity by embracing genuine self-acceptance and self-love.

From a founding member of the coaching movement comes a detailed guide to mastering one of a coach's toughest skills: thoughtfully reflecting clients' words and expressions back to them so they see themselves and their world through new eyes. “Coaches rely far too much on asking open-ended questions,” says Marcia Reynolds. But questions only seek answers—inquiry provides insight. When, instead of just questions, clients hear their thoughts, opinions, and beliefs spoken by someone else, it prompts them to critically consider how their thinking affects their goals. Reynolds cites the latest brain science to show why reflective inquiry works and provides techniques, tips, and structures for creating breakthrough conversations. This book will free coaches from the cult of asking the magical question by offering five essential practices of reflective inquiry: focus on the person, not the problem; summarize what is heard and expressed; identify underlying beliefs and assumptions; unwrap the desired outcome; and articulate insights and commitments. Using these practices, combined with a respectful and caring presence, helps create a space where clients feel safe, seen, and valued for who they are. Coaches become change agents who actively recharge the human spirit. And clients naturally dive deeper and develop personalized solutions that may surprise even the coach.
