The tragic death of a young student, Melissa Franklin, was a shogk to all those who knew her; the two teachers whose job it was to supervise the excursion; her friends and fellow students who felt some responsibility for the accident and Stephen Watson who could not understand why Melissa had suddenly dumped him. Though the death was declared an accident, there was still some suspicion that it may have been a suicide. Susan, Melissa's sister is determined to find out what was going on in her sister's life and what really happened that day.

Once he had acquired a respectable nickname, Sos was sure he was destined for great things, but he did not expect them to happen in the way they did. Sitting in the classroom, during an English test, he suddenly found himself on his feet shouting, "Isn't anybody listening.' It was his voice, but he hadn't said it. And so began an exciting adventure for him and his friend Sandy as they attempt to free Will Naylor from the clutches of the strange Dr Maxwell.

A collection of practical activities that provide a framework for teaching phonics.

An active and innovative approach to making words that teachers and their students have grown to love is finally here! Based on its highly successful parent text, Phonics They Use, this new grade-level series Making Words offers teachers a fresh multi-level activity and lesson series written for the kindergarten through fifth grade classroom. Pat Cunningham and Dottie Hall present classroom teachers with effective tools for strengthening phonics and spelling skills that encourage students to move beyond learning and into a world of word discovery. Each research-based volume includes a wealth of friendly, hands-on, manipulative activities that guide teachers in teaching the development of words--from phonemic awareness to spelling. In Making Words Fourth Grade, Pat and Dottie introduce 4th grade teachers to 50 lessons that teach all the prefixes, suffixes, and root skills included in most fourth grade curriculums. Each Making Words activity leads children through a systematic and sequential spelling curriculum. All lessons include practice with prefixes and suffixes as children stretch out words they are making and blend the letters to make new words. Because teaching children letter-sound relationships is easier than teaching children to actually use these letter-sound relationships, all lessons include a transfer step in which children apply the sounds they are learning to spelling new words. Making Words Fourth Grade is the best resource you can have on hand for motivating your students to learn words!
