Book excerpt: This Action Guide is a tool to accompany Culturize: Every Student. Every Day. Whatever It Takes. by Jimmy Casas. A practical book to help all educators understand what it takes to cultivate a community of learners who embody human traits such as kindness, compassion, and honesty, Culturize begins with the premise that by cultivating a collective professional mindset that centers on championing for all students, expecting excellence in all that we do, carrying the banner for our students, our school, and each other, and serving as merchants of hope for our students and each other, educators can shift schools away from a culture that runs on compliance, blame, and fear to a culture based on investment and caring. Jimmy shares inspiration, stories, and strategies to help overcome the negative undercurrents that exist in school cultures today and explains how educators in all roles can reach students who seem "unreachable," connect with students who are disengaged and at risk of dropping out, ensure that students feel cared for and empowered, and create environments in which all students are challenged and inspired to be their very best. His insights into navigating the complexities of working in schools is an invaluable resource for all educators who desire to make a difference in the lives of the students and parents they serve as well as the colleagues with whom they serve. This Action Guide is a road map to taking action steps based on the ideas found in Culturize so that our schools can best serve the students of today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distinguished educators Arthur L. Costa and Bena Kallick present this collection of stories by educators around the world who have successfully implemented the habits in their day-to-day teaching in K-12 classrooms. The collective wisdom and experience of these thoughtful practitioners provide readers with insight into the transdisciplinary nature of the 16 Habits of Mind—intelligent behaviors that lead to success in school and the larger world—as well as model lessons and suggestions for weaving the habits into daily instruction in language arts, music, physical education, social studies, math, foreign language, and other content areas. Readers will come to understand that, far from an "add-on" to the curriculum, the habits are an essential element for helping students at all grade levels successfully deal with the challenges they face in school and beyond. As in all their books on the Habits of Mind, Costa and Kallick have a broad and worthwhile goal in mind. As they say in the concluding chapter of this volume, "If we want a future that is much more thoughtful, vastly more cooperative, greatly more compassionate, and a whole lot more loving, then we have to invent it. That future is in our homes, schools, and classrooms today. The Habits of Mind are the tools we all can use to invent our desired vision of the future."

Book excerpt: The Earth is waiting For Apostolic Power to be Demonstrated! Even though there were 12 apostles in Scripture, there is still an apostolic office and function that all Christians need to know about. In fact, many believers are functioning apostolically--and yet, they are not fully stepping into this unclaimed seat in the spirit realm. When the people of God access the apostolic anointing, the Earth will witness a greater manifestation of Jesus' fullness and power! Dr. Ché Ahn, president and founder of Harvest International Ministry, is a world-recognized apostolic leader. In this signature book, he is taking all believers to the school of the apostles, where they will learn to either operate in the office of apostle or function apostolically in their current sphere of influence. You will learn how to: Recognize if you are an apostle by office or apostolic in function. Step into your apostolic anointing and multiply the release of Kingdom influence through your life. Operate in your apostolic jurisdiction in the church or marketplace. Re-culturize your sphere of influence as an ambassador of God's Kingdom. When you learn how to operate apostolically, you can boldly take your place as an ambassador of God's Kingdom on Earth with a supernatural assignment to transform your sphere of influence to look more like Heaven.
