Square octavo, softbound (slick photo. illus. black wrappers), unpaginated. Very Good, with light edgewear. From Introduction: This is mostly for anyone feeling caught in the "great change" between the way schools are and the way they can be. Something here may be of help to someone. I have taught 1st and 3rd grade for the ate of California, and a private school class of children, ages 3 1/2 to 9, in which I planned and taught the curriculum; and most recently, I taught English, sewing and social studies in an all black junior high in Los Angeles, about which this book is written. In the classroom I have used whatever I could make work, and used the direct ideas and spirit of others, including L. Ron Hubbards, founder of the applied philosophy Scientology; R. Buckminster Fuller, world designer and philosopher; George Leonard, writer; James Herndon, teacher; and Alexander Calder, sculptor (the man who has never stopped playing). I have used any method I could find which made students happier and brighter. I have been guided by the wish to let students be who they are, and do all that they can do. I know they are powerful beings capable of a great deal. In the right environment they soon know that too. Education, American Culture, Photography, Class Study, California, Black History. bslic.…
