Have you ever wondered how some of the most popular items that we see and use in our daily lives were made? Would you be surprised to know that some of these inventions were made by mistake, only to become widely-used and beloved products? When we think of accidents or mistakes, we automatically think of failure - that you need to throw everything out and start over from scratch, or maybe just give up. Well, these inventors and creators proved that notion wrong! In fact, they became the definition of "if you make a mistake, learn from it and adapt yourself to the new situation." It's time to go on an adventure to discover the accidental origin stories behind some of the world's most popular objects. In this exciting discovery of accidents, you will discover: 50 of the most popular inventions out there and the true stories behind how they were accidentally created A blast from the past - childhood toys that started out as serious objects before turning into the fun toys you remember so well The mishap at sea that led to the creation of the hole-centered donut Lifesaving medications that you might use every day that were created for totally different purposes How a failed invention for a strong adhesive eventually gave rise to this popular office supply Objects and appliances around your home that you wouldn't believe were intended for other uses And much more. These stories will show you that mistakes and failures don't have to mean the end of your dream. In fact, they could just be the beginning. Be inspired to turn your mistakes into successes and find the potential behind every accident. When accidents happen, get curious, not furious

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 3rd Edition of Literacy & Learning in the Content Areas helps readers build the knowledge, motivation, tools, and confidence they need as they integrate literacy into their middle and high school content area classrooms. Its unique approach to teaching content area literacy actively engages preservice and practicing teachers in reading and writing and the very activities that they will use to teach literacy to their own studentsin middle and high school classrooms . Rather than passively learning about strategies for incorporating content area literacy activities, readers get hands-on experience in such techniques as mapping/webbing, anticipation guides, booktalks, class websites, and journal writing and reflection. Readers also learn how to integrate children's and young adult literature, primary sources, biographies, essays, poetry, and online content, communities, and websites into their classrooms. Each chapter offers concrete teaching examples and practical suggestions to help make literacy relevant to students' content area learning. Author Sharon Kane demonstrates how relevant reading, writing, speaking, listening, and visual learning activities can improve learning in content area subjects and at the same time help readers meet national content knowledge standards and benchmarks.
