DOWNLOAD EBOOKTurning Ourselves Inside Out emerges from the Thriving Christian Communities Project started by the authors in 2015, as well as from a Facebook conversation where someone asked, "We always hear about the problems in our churches. When are we going to talk about the good news stories?" This got the authors thinking: How do we learn about what is exciting and what the Holy Spirit is doing? How do we broaden the conversation beyond how sad, afraid, and grumpy we often are as church people? These kinds of questions filled the authors' imaginations as they scouted out the long walking route of Camino Nova Scotia, the pilgrimage program offered by Atlantic School of Theology. The long hours walking together gave them space and peace to think more broadly about what they wanted to learn, and how to share it with the wider church. In interviews with thirty-five faith communities, the authors discovered that amid great upheaval, Christ is giving us a new church, and this book offers readers a firsthand glimpse of it. Turning Ourselves Inside Out isn't an "off the shelf" program or model. It invites readers to listen to others' experiences and then dig deep into their own and get down to the business of dreaming God's dream and making it real, right where they are. Leaders of congregations, and all who care about what God is up to in the world, need to hear these stories. They are a source of hope and courage, as God renews and revives God's people.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“Violence is nurturance turned backwards,” writes Nora Samaran. In Turn This World Inside Out, she presents Nurturance Culture as the opposite of rape culture and suggests how alternative models of care and accountability—different from “call-outs,” which are often rooted in the politics of shame and guilt—can move toward inverting cultures of dominance and systems of oppression. When communities are able to recognize and speak up about systemic violence, center the needs of those harmed, and hold a circle of belonging that humanizes everyone, they create a revolutionary foundation of nurturance that can begin to repair the harms inflicted by patriarchy, white supremacy, and capitalism. Emerging out of insights in Gender Studies, Race Theory, and Psychology, and influenced by contemporary social movements, Turn This World Inside Out speaks to some of the most pressing issues of our time.

Fostering Children's Number Sense in Grades K-2

DOWNLOAD EBOOKEnsure children's deep understanding of addition and subtraction in ways that enable long-term growth-with child-centered instructional strategies, powerful and engaging learning materials, and revealing assessment tools. Common Core aligned. Based on his belief that children are mathematically curious by nature, author Greg Nelson presents a variety of tools classroom teachers can use to give students access to the deep structure of numbers, carefully scaffold their inquiry, and help them excel in math. The goal of this resource is to guide teachers as they feed children's innate mathematical curiosity and scaffold their insights without taking ownership of the process away from them. To that end the author provides effective tools of instruction and assessment, with clear guidelines for teaching a different way. In order to help ensure that mathematics learning is a learner-centered process, rather than one forced by adult-sequenced series of rules and facts, the book focuses on seeding the environment with mathematically intriguing tasks just beyond children's current level of mastery and then giving them the freedom to use that environment in personally meaningful ways. In doing so the book provides a host of suitable materials and activities that encourage self-educating, and suggests how adults can maximize their impact on the child's learning through careful observation and strategic intervention.

This book is published in English.
