Proverbs 13:15 "Good understanding gains (gives) favour, but the way of the transgressors is hard (difficult)." (Emphasis Mine) A man's ignorance is his own mountain; but the knowledge and understanding of the truth which is based on the living Word of God; birthed and breathed by the Holy Spirit will always deliver, direct and prosper to give your life meaningful success with fulfilment. REVD CHUKIE MORSI, a Bible Teacher, pastor, publisher, spiritual advisor, consultant and now author, has delved into this mesage in a didactic manner. The intention of this book, TRIUMPH IN READING THE WORD is to emancipate individuals and the church from the famine of hearing the Word of God in the midst of challenges... Amos 8:11-13 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst of water, but of hearing the words of the Lord. And they shall wander form sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the Word of the Lord, and shall not find it. In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst. This book is written to awaken you to the need for knowledge, understanding and wisdom in doing life and dealing with the falsehood of dogmatism and Methodism through religious traditions and doctrinal misfits that have held people in the clusters of ignorance and bondage. In order to rule in the midst of your enemies (Psalms 110:2) and reign in life triumphantly and in dominion (Romans 5:17; 2 Corinthians 2:14), this book is the believers synergy towards it. Acts 20:32 "So now brethren, I commend you to God & to the Word of His grace which is able to build you up & give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified."

This volume explores higher level, critical, and creative thinking, as well as reflective decision making and problem solving -- what teachers should emphasize when teaching literacy across the curriculum. Focusing on how to encourage learners to become independent thinking, learning, and communicating participants in home, school, and community environments, this book is concerned with integrated learning in a curriculum of inclusion. It emphasizes how to provide a curriculum for students where they are socially interactive, personally reflective, and academically informed. Contributors are authorities on such topics as cognition and learning, classroom climates, knowledge bases of the curriculum, the use of technology, strategic reading and learning, imagery and analogy as a source of creative thinking, the nature of motivation, the affective domain in learning, cognitive apprenticeships, conceptual development across the disciplines, thinking through the use of literature, the impact of the media on thinking, the nature of the new classroom, developing the ability to read words, the bilingual, multicultural learner, crosscultural literacy, and reaching the special learner. The applications of higher level thought to classroom contexts and materials are provided, so that experienced teacher educators, and psychologists are able to implement some of the abstractions that are frequently dealt with in texts on cognition. Theoretical constructs are grounded in educational experience, giving the volume a practical dimension. Finally, appropriate concerns regarding the new media, hypertext, bilingualism, and multiculturalism as they reflect variation in cognitive experience within the contexts of learning are presented.
In this reprinted edition of Caleb Gattegno's 1967 book Teaching Reading with Words in Color, teachers are guided through the science and practicalities of using this revolutionary literacy approach. From using a pointer to tap on the charts to studying structures with the use of grammar cards and other materials, Gattegno paints the picture of a well-rounded Words in Color classroom. Although the materials have been updated over the years, this guide still speaks to the heart of this learning-centered approach to teaching reading, writing, and spelling.
This book brings together current research findings on the involvement of word-internal structure for the purpose of word reading (especially morphological structure). The central theme of reading complex words is approached from several angles, such that the chapters span a wide variety of topics where this issue is important. It is a valuable resource for all researchers studying the mental lexicon and to those who teach advanced courses in the psychology of language.
