They Call Me Mr. Ummmm by Bill Buxton Pdf

A bit irreverent yet, kind and truthful, this book is for substitutes, teachers, and administrators. It describes the work-life of an experienced substitute teacher through the lenses of ""best practices."" It begins with the need for education: Axiom (1) ""Teaching is a prerequisite for human evolution"" to Axiom (11) ""Do not take anything personally"", even when the students say you are ""the best sub they ever had."" For grades K-12, this book helps with classroom management techniques to keeping track of multiple assignments. All you need is a tolerance for ambiguity (everyday is different), a healthy lunch, and perhaps ear plugs for rainy day recesses. Author: Bill Buxton (MA, MBA, TESOL) has been a ""mostly friendly"" substitute for about five years for grades four through twelve in various socioeconomic districts. He believes the primary goal of a substitute teacher is to support the professional teacher by following the sub plans, with some discretion, of course.

Flight of the Gazebo by Kent Silverhill Pdf

It isn’t easy when you find yourself lost and alone in a strange place. It’s even trickier when that place is a different world, and you have no idea how you got there. Drome’s top priority isn’t to figure that out. It’s to avoid getting himself killed. But his talent for making enemies as he flees the villainous courtiers who took him hostage, really isn’t helping. He’s in an unfamiliar city, in a bizarre hollow world, and he only has one friend. Well, that’s if he can call a snarky living skeleton with a penchant for stealing royal jewels a friend. What with every palace guard and a crazed assassin after the pair, the odds are stacked against them. Running out of time, luck, and options, it’s touch-and-go whether they’ll make it to Drome’s village and warn them of the horror coming their way. And then there’s the wizard. If only Drome hadn’t angered him too… So, is Drome in trouble? Yup. He’s screwed. If you like Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, and Joe Abercrombie, you won't be able to put down the addictive Hollow series.

The Great Mortdecai Moustache Mystery by Kyril Bonfiglioli Pdf

The Great Mortdecai Moustache Mystery - the fourth Charlie Mortdecai novel, soon to be a major film starring Johnny Depp 'Deliciously nasty ... An adventurously off-piste whodunit' Observer 'She was a Fellow and Tutor of Scone College and the world must learn that Fellows and Tutors of Scone College shall not be done to death with impunity.' The Hon. Charlie Mortdecai (and his intrepid moustache) is invited to Oxford to investigate the cruel and most definitely unusual death of a don who collided with an omnibus. Though her death appears accidental, one or two things don't add up - such as two pairs of thugs who'd been following her just before her death. With more spies than you could shoe horn into a stretch limo and the solving of the odd murder along the way, The Great Mortdecai Moustache Mystery is a criminally comic delight. 'Gloriously, infectiously funny' Guardian 'The result of stewing together PG Wodehouse and Raymond Chandler, lightly seasoned with Ian Fleming and Damon Runyon, then adding a jigger of Groucho Marx and a dash of the Marquis de Sade' Mail on Sunday 'A delightfully black comedy thriller - and it will tell you everything you need to know about onanism in fourth-century China' Observer 'Blissfully funny' Independent Kyril Bonfiglioli was born on the south coast of England in 1928 of an English mother and Italo-Slovene father. After studying at Oxford and five years in the army, he took up a career as an art dealer, like his eccentric creation Charlie Mortdecai. He lived in Oxford, Lancashire, Ireland and Jersey, where he died in 1985. He wrote four Charlie Mortdecai novels, and a fifth historical Mortdecai novel (about a distinguished ancestor).
