RESOURCES FOR TEACHING CHILDREN WITH DIVERSE
ABILITIES -birth through eight. This is a textbook and a resource book
for teachers (or parents that home school a few children) who are
including or will include children with disabilities in their classes.
The book acknowledges and identifies the role of theory in the field and
then translates this theory into practice. The book provides information
about growth and development, program planning, and working with
families. It contains over three hundred activities to facilitate
individualized programs, it is written in non-technical style and is
designed to increase knowledge about children with disabilities and to
demonstrate how to apply this knowledge in a teaching situation. The
scope of this book is broader than that of most books in the field. Now,
it is not a brand new book and it has been around, but its in decent
shape, has a 'few' dog-eared or bent pages, some light dents in the
glossy cover, maybe a mark here or there, but its in basically in pretty
good condition, and actually, its a deal if you are someone who needs
this specific information. New this sells for $53.95. Since its a little
more used than others, my price: $20.00
.

PTEROSAURS, the FLYING REPTILES. By Helen Roney Sattler: If you have a
dinosaur-lover kid, they will love this book! Beautiful color paintings! Both
cover and inside are in good condition. In the back it contains a pronunciation
guide and index to various dinosaurs and heir time period along with the page
numbers you can find them on. Sample reading: "Millions of years ago, when
dinosaurs roamed the earth, pterosaurs flew in the skies. Some people think that
pterosaurs were dinosaurs, but they were not. They were no more closely related
to dinosaurs than they were to crocodiles. However, like dinosaurs, they are
called archosaurs, or 'ruling reptiles.' They are classed as reptiles because
they had reptilian skulls and teeth. But these remarkable animals were special
reptiles." Get the facts! :) Interesting, educating yet fun with colorful
pictures of pterosaurs or other similar creatures on each page. Hardback, pgs 46
Used. Very "slightly" warped, SLIGHTLY, and in good condition. New
this costs $13.00. Asking: $3.00

SLEEKY THE OTTER, Leonard & Briscoe: I was tempted to put this book under
the story section because it reads so nicely, but technically it is an
educational book as a “reader.” Unfortunately it doesn't state the grade
level but in the back it has a vocabulary section with words like, "bear,
careful, down, empty, follow, lesson, understand, wander, where, etc."
Excerpt: " Sleeky and his mate found their way to Miller's Pond one fall
day. It was a cold day and very, very clear. The sun shone on the bright fall
leaves. It made the water look silvery. The two otters were swimming down the
stream that ran into Miller's Pond. As they swam, their dark brown heads broke
through the bright water." Good condition. Hardbound. 86 pgs. $1.50

lived among the Blackfeet Indians. He was called 'Scareface' because he had been
born with a mark on his cheek. His parents were dead so he lived with his

Singing Rains. All the young braves tried to win her affection, but she would
have none of their boastful, arrogant ways. Scareface too fell in love with her;
but because he was poor and his face was scared, he did not dare speak to her.
When the other braves found out that Scareface was in love, they made fun of
him…..She (Singing Rains) said to Scareface, 'I would marry you. It doesn't
matter that you are poor. …. But I have made a promise to the Sun, who is the
Father of us all, never to wed. …..Scareface replied, 'Then I will go to the
Sun and ask him: for surely the Sun, who gives us all good things and is our
Father, does not wish his children to be unhappy.' And thus the plot continues
with an interesting ending. Book cover is slightly bent, inside of book is in

"forward" a copy of it to: mail-spoof@cc.yahoo-inc.com
But NEVER respond to the email sender it came from! Because that only
goes back to the spammer in the first place and not an authority, thus
you will end up on their endless phishing e-list! You may also wish to report the phishing email to the
