A great resource for teachers!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I use this book to help inspire my sixth grade students! Every day I select one quotation, and call it my "Thought of the Day." I ask a student to read it out loud, and then ask the class what they think the spearker is trying to tell us. After a brief discussion, I read the information about the speaker and discuss their contributions to the world. What a great way to teach students about important people of the past and present!
A Great Resource

This very interesting book contains over 1,200 quotations from around the world. Some quotations are from ancient times; others are from the present day, yet they all seem current and meaningful. They cover many different categories, such as advice, humour, courage, and leadership. My son has used the book to look for quotations to include in his reports. I have found that he often gets caught up in reading the quotes (and forgets about his report). Besides being inspirational, these quotes provide an insight into the personalities and dreams of those who first spoke their words. It is a must for every family with children. Keep it on the bookshelf next to the dictionary.
