From the supplier: Physical education provides a means by which teachers can help students develop responsible behavior. Cooperative activities and child-directed learning experiences can make children appreciate working with others and realize their role as decision makers. A problem-solving strategy enables children to handle challenges at their own pace and thus enhance their self confidence. Activities which allow children to explore their imagination can help increase their awareness of their suroundings. Teachers can play an influential role in their students' lives by being a role model of responsibility.

Surfing Through Springtime And Swimming Down Under

Surfing Through Springtime And Swimming Down Under Review

Summer is living a dream, and that dream is who she wants to be. She and Phillip have come to an understanding about things, and this is good. She is having fun on her new swim team, and she's working very hard. Summer is still surfing and competing in open water swim competitions, and she is off to Australia again for the Australian Open Water National Championship 10K. This year the competition is at Manly Dam in fresh water! Summer has never done an open water competition in fresh water, so this swim will be another new experience for her.

Before she leaves for Australia Jill has a surprise for her; and when she gets to Australia Summer, minus the gang, has another eco-adventure. One thing is for certain, its's just like Jill says, "The sun always shines on Summer!" Continue with Summer on her adventures in book five of the 'Surfer Girl' series!

In Pursuit of Bill: A Comprehensive History of the Rugby World Cup

In Pursuit of Bill: A Comprehensive History of the Rugby World Cup Review

(NOTE: THIS BOOK INCLUDES IMAGES AND A FULL REVIEW OF THE 2007 TOURNAMENT). When Sir Nicholas Shehadie received a late-night phone call from his co-chairman of the organising committee on the eve of the inaugural Rugby World Cup in 1987, he was expecting the worst. Shehadie had just endured a heated two-year journey to bring the first event to fruition amid strong resistance from the Home Unions of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. He and his co-chairmen had even survived attempts to be overthrown by the international governing body, but this call brought a challenge of a more humorous kind... 'John Kendall-Carpenter rang me just prior to the World Cup starting and he said: ''Son we have a problem ... we haven t got a trophy''. I never thought about it too much and it seems nobody else did either,'' Shehadie recalls. ''John then went down to Garrards [the Crown jewellers] in London and found this cup. He rang me and said he could buy it for £6000. I had no hesitation in telling him to do it.'' The last-minute efforts of Kendall-Carpenter yielded the coveted trophy that is now the ultimate prize in world rugby, The Webb Ellis Cup, named after student William Webb Ellis of Rugby College in England, who is famously attributed with creating the distinctive feature of the rugby game. The trophy, now more affectionately known in many parts of the rugby world as 'Bill' represents global supremacy of the game, and the story of how countries have gone in pursuit of rugby's ultimate prize is equally compelling as the history of how this grand tournament was born. From modest beginnings in 1987, the Rugby World Cup now has the alluring aura that inspires everything a rugby country can muster. It is all or nothing, and their goal is plain and simple. They have come to reach the pinnacle of a four-year quest. They have come to lay their claim for the ultimate prize in world rugby. They have come ''In Pursuit Of Bill''.
