Every teacher should have one Advantages: Easy to understand and deliver. FUN Disadvantages: none - it's great! An EXCELLENT "couldn't live without it" resource. Once in a while a teaching resource comes along that it so amazingly indispensible that you just have to tell the world about it. This book is one of them. I bought this to use with a mixed age class of Y5 and Y6 pupils at the beginning of the academic year 2007-2008. Admittedly, i didn't know exactly what i was buying (it was an Amazon - buy these two for £X deal), however given the author i suspected ... ...wrong. It wasn't just quite useful - it was amazing! The activities range from modern twists on old-fashioned consequences through to film based drama activities. It even has suggested activities for use when working on poetry. Each activity is clearly explained, easy to deliver and most importantly fun and engaging. Most activites are short and can easily fit into a morning registration period. I put some on the board as an early morning starter ... nikkiroymarsh 14.09.2008 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Jumpstart!: Literacy Games - Pie Corbett	Degree of Information How interesting was the...

A Pocket Gem Advantages: Sturdy quality; nice little touches like the pocket at the back; Nostaglic Romanticism Disadvantages: None Moleskine proudly boasts that it was the notebook of choice for a number of influential thinkers, artists and writers, ranging from Van Gogh to Hemingway, via Matisse and Chatwin. A lofty pedigree indeed, so what made these great minds choose such an unassuming little black book, and why should you choose one today? I actually started with Moleskines when I received one of their diaries for Christmas, and finding it a handy little thing decided ... ...of websites, one of which is an online monthly magazine, and find the need to jot down thoughts, and start writing article introductions, straight away lest I forget what was going through my head. At a diminutive 9x14cm this notebook easily slips inside a coat pocket, with the 192 lined pages proving enough to get a huge amount of thought onto the written page. The book itself is virtually bombproof - I carry it every single day in a bag where ... blackpuddinonnabike 13.11.2007 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Moleskine Pocket Ruled Notebook	Degree of Information How interesting was the...

a great idea but dosn't do the job Advantages: Very usefull to someone totally new to the hobby Disadvantages: poor photos, and poor content for even second time users ...a book and a good book for anyone thinking of giving this hobby a try but of very limited use to anyone who has made even one kit before. If the title had been 'A beginers guide to period ship kit building' I would have given it much higher marks ... coppinpr 21.03.2008 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Period Ship Kit Builder's Manual - Keith Julier	Degree of Information How interesting was the...

The Money Secret Advantages: great advice on how to avoid many pitfalls which get people into debt Disadvantages: none ...is a great read, following the story of someone who has found themselves in debt and feeling suicidal and is assisted by a kind stranger who teaches them about the subtle debt traps there are in society and how to avoid them and how to manage their finances. It is full of simple practical advice for wise money management, whether you are struggling with debt or already financially secure. As the book says "if you feel that nobody could understand ... ...will become your friend." The book comes with practical working papers so readers can put into practice what they have learnt in the book. The English in this book is very easy to read, I would say even a ten year old could follow it, as it is written in story form and the way it is written is unlikely to baffle most readers as some books on financial management do. Although the book is essentially about teaching practical budgeting advice, I don't ... llbcollins 10.12.2008 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of The Money Secret - Rob Parsons	Degree of Information How interesting was the...

Moleskine Large Notebook Rules Advantages: Perfect: Size, Weight, Feel, Quality and some. Disadvantages: Quite expensive; but worth the money ...surrounding the book, and all Moleskine products come with a history of Moleskine leaflet. OPINION Only a notebook that you want to write in is worth having, and Moleskines' large notebook is one of those books; simply a pleasure. The notebooks Moleskine produce are made to the best quality, yet they remain slim and stylish, no wonder some of the best writers (past and present) have sworn by them. PRICE CHECK Amazon have it for £8.07, this is ... ...it listed. The price varies from seller to seller. Moleskine UK offer it for £11.94 including postage. These notebooks are for any creative, or professional person wanting a quality notebook. Like all good things, you get what you pay for, and you won't be disappointed with your purchase. ... jpearson772 09.06.2009 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Moleskine Large Ruled Notebook - Patricia Calder	Degree of Information How interesting was the...
