Book excerpt: For many children much of the time their experience in classrooms can be rather dull, and yet the world the school is supposed to initiate children into is full of wonder. This book offers a rich understanding of the nature and roles of wonder in general and provides multiple suggestions for to how to revive wonder in adults (teachers and curriculum makers) and how to keep it alive in children. Its aim is to show that adequate education needs to take seriously the task of evoking wonder about the content of the curriculum and to show how this can routinely be done in everyday classrooms. The authors do not wax flowery; they present strong arguments based on either research or precisely described experience, and demonstrate how this argument can be seen to work itself out in daily practice. The emphasis is not on ways of evoking wonder that might require virtuoso teaching, but rather on how wonder can be evoked about the everyday features of the math or science or social studies curriculum in regular classrooms.

Book excerpt: In the vibrant tapestry of life where paths often diverge, young explorer Milo finds himself navigating the intricate web of choices, paths untaken, and realms unexplored. "Lost and Found: Tales of Unexpected Journeys" offers a vivid expedition through enchanted gardens, mystical bridges, and lands that time forgot, portraying a rich panorama of experiences that are at once surreal and yet hauntingly familiar. Embarking on a series of adventures that range from the thrilling to the philosophical, Milo travels through realms where the everyday morphs into the extraordinary, and the known world gives way to landscapes shaped by dreams and desires left unexplored. Each chapter is a standalone tale that slowly pieces together a mosaic of profound discoveries and vibrant characters, revealing a larger narrative that explores the deep connections between the individual and the world, the self and the other, and the known and the unknown. As readers venture alongside Milo through hidden paths and lost domains, they are invited to contemplate the mysteries that surround them and the choices that define them. From encounters with the Keeper of Unfinished Paths to the unveiling of the most profound truths in the Oasis of Truth, the book paints a poetic narrative that encourages the exploration of paths less traveled and the appreciation of the wonder in the everyday. The final chapters see Milo returning home, a place transformed through the kaleidoscope of experiences garnered from his adventurous sojourns, bringing to life the richness and depth of life's journey where the end is but another beginning. Join Milo in "Lost and Found: Tales of Unexpected Journeys," a rich narrative woven with magical realism, philosophical insights, and the ever-present wonder of the unknown. It is more than just a series of tales-it is an invitation to readers to find themselves in the mosaic of stories, to ponder deeply, and to embark on their journeys of self-discovery, holding the promise of enchantment, reflection, and the rediscovery of wonder in the heart of the familiar. A testament to the rich tapestry of life's potentials, "Lost and Found" stands as a beacon encouraging the brave to venture into uncharted territories, and the weary to find renewed wonder in the beauty of the world. It is a book that urges readers to seize the magic of the moment, to find the extraordinary in the ordinary, and to cherish each step in life's beautiful, unexpected journey.

Book Synopsis A Dream Too Wild by : Ralph Waldo Emerson

Download or read book A Dream Too Wild written by Ralph Waldo Emerson and published by Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations. This book was released on 2004-01-28 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Emerson was very much a person of his era, but his thought is timeless because it partakes of the perennial wisdom that has permeated philosophy and religion in every age and culture. Emerson continues to be relevant because, as he said of himself, 'I am an endless seeker with no past at my back.' Spiritual seekers of this and coming ages will continue to find in Emerson a kindred soul." - from the Introduction Master of the aphorism, Emerson is the most quoted of all American writers. Yet there have been few anthologies of Emerson's sayings and none quite like this one. Drawing from all of Emerson - his early sermons and lectures, his journals, his many books and essays, and his poetry -this unique book of thoughtfully selected passages captures the many textures and nuances of this exceptional mind. We find a spiritual message at the heart of his philosophy. Emerson's spiritual vision is reflected in these selections, the most relevant writings for today's spiritual seekers. This meditation collection will provide an opportunity to celebrate and re-evaluate Emerson's contribution to America's spiritual history. The depth and breadth of Emerson's words will show a new generation of Americans how to bring an open heart and a critical mind to the spiritual search.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Just the facts." "The numbers don't lie." "Get your beliefs right!" Can you have everything clearly laid out, knowing you are right, and still be missing out? Ron Higdon takes a look at what drives awe and wonder in our lives and what we might be missing if we get lost in the data, or in the troubles of our time, or even in the tremendous variety of entertainment that is available. Overwhelmingly so! He treats the keeping of wonder in our lives as both a gift and an achievement, or perhaps as a gift that must be put to use. What attitudes are helpful? What attitudes are not? This book has ideas that will transform you if you allow them to. It is practical and built on a life-time of experience as a pastor, a student, and as simply a human being. This book will provide in great detail what it means to be able to see the wonders of life and the world through Kingdom glasses. It spells out the twenty-one basic principles of the Sermon on the Mount that will keep you seeing wonders in the ordinary and in the not so ordinary. It will transform the way you see and what you see. And, in the process, you may even find yourself transformed.
