Hot Issues, Cool Choices


Description

Did you know that there are kids out there who don't even want to get out of bed in the morning because they know what going to school means for them? - being teased and taunted ... - being excluded and rejected ... - being afraid that you're going to be assaulted and possibly hurt... - Sometimes it can even mean that you just can't hang in there any longer, so you give up and take your own life. If you are one of the cool kids at school, this book is for you. But if you're not one of the cool kids, this book is especially for you. Emerson Elementary isn't a real school, but it could be your elementary school. And the students at Emerson aren't real kids, but the problems they face are real, and so are the choices they make. The Golden Rule is an old rule, but it's still a good rule to live by, and after reading this book, you may just possibly become a kinder, more compassionate human being, someone who treats others the way you want them to treat you. So come along and join the students at Emerson Elementary and help them make some cool choices!

Something scary is happening to boys today. From kindergarten to college, American boys are, on average, less resilient and less ambitious than they were a mere twenty years ago. The gender gap in college attendance and graduation rates has widened dramatically. While Emily Going the Extra Mile : Insider Tips for Long-Distance Motorcycling and Endurance Rallies download epub is working hard at school and getting A's, her brother Justin is goofing off. He's more concerned about getting to the next level in his videogame than about finishing his homework. Now, Dr. Leonard Sax delves into the scientific literature and draws on more than twenty years of clinical experience to explain why boys and young men are failing in school and disengaged at home. He shows how social, cultural, and biological factors have created an environment that is literally toxic to boys. He also presents practical solutions, sharing strategies which educators have found effective in re-engaging these boys at school, as well as handy tips for parents about everything from homework, to videogames, to medication.
