This book of all Michael Clay Thompson's research paper comments supplements his three-volume Advanced Academic Writing series and also acts as a unique stand-alone resource for grading student academic papers. The book is a sine qua non for grading academic papers, a resource as useful to seasoned teachers as to homeschoolers coping with the issues for the first time. For the past forty-plus years, Michael has graded student papers and has written detailed comments on them. He soon tired of writing the same comments for the same mistakes year after year and began to put his comments into an archive that he could draw upon as he needed. Eventually this archive became extensive and comprehensive. Opus 40 contains the archive of his comments, his approach to teaching students how to write formal papers, his approach to grading student papers, and his reflections on and explanations of the comments he has written about structure, grammar, format, punctuation, style, and more. The book makes accessible in one place all the comments that are in the Advanced Academic Writing books so that parents can use them when grading. Note: This is a second edition of this book. It has two significant changes from the first edition. First, it contains many comments that Michael has rewritten as a result of his online teaching. Second, it reflects the current MLA guidelines, which are substantially changed from those that were in existence when the first edition was written. As a result of those changes, the information in the first edition is now wrong, and no one should continue to use the first edition.

TABLE OF CONTENTS SAMPLE PAGES Written especially for K-8 teachers, home schooling parents, or anyone who wants a clear, accurate explanation of scientific concepts, Science for Every Teacher is an engaging, lucid reference to increase confidence and depth in science. Science for Every Teacher is written for anyone who teaches K-8 students. Elementary school teachers teach many different subjects, and often feel competent to teach all of them but one. When teaching science they often wish they had more depth in their own knowledge. They want to have more background than simply the text their students are using! And teacher’s guides rarely provide that kind of information in depth. What happens when students ask questions that go beyond the text? What happens if the explanations in the text are incomplete or unclear? What’s a teacher to do? Ask to borrow a high school textbook? Not likely. Surf the Internet? Too unfriendly and unreliable. Take online courses? Who’s got time for that? Science for Every Teacher is the perfect solution to increase your confidence and professionalism. The series is written at a level that any adult can understand, even with no prior training or college coursework in science. Each volume provides a thorough and accurate introduction to the subject. Content is written in a clear style, with every term and concept defined and explained in its place. The pace is unhurried, and examples make the science vivid and practical. Each colorful volume is loaded with illustrations, photographs, and applications. Sidebars address questions students are likely to ask such as, “Why is the sky blue?” and “What’s a laser?” Optional mathematical sections are included for interested readers and the appendices provide more in-depth information on topics such as units of measure and unit conversions. Historical passages blend enriching accounts of scientists and the adventures that scientific discoveries often involve. And what about home school parents, or parents of students at university-style schools? Science for Every Teacher is the perfect resource for every family. With Science for Every Teacher, parents will be well equipped to teach their children or to work alongside teachers with support at home. Science for Every Teacher is not curriculum specific. It just gives you the grasp of the topic so you can present a lesson with confidence. Increase your professionalism as an educator by knowing the real science, not simply what’s printed in the children’s textbook. The first volume in the series covers physics. Chemistry will be the subject of Volume 2. Volumes 3 and 4 will cover earth science/astronomy, and biology, respectively, and will be published in subsequent years. Science for Every Teacher is written from a faith-neutral perspective, and is appropriate in any educational context.Sku: 9780988322813Science for Every Teacher – Volume 1: Physics (Hardcover) ***Discounted***
