Cricket Today - Weekly 2017


Book Description

It was suppose to be the wedding of the year but the way it was planned and executed, calling it secretive wedding of the year won’t be a wrong idea. Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma, the outspoken couple, finally took a pledge of spending their life together, getting married in Italy. Media and fans tried their best to know the truth but kudos to planners, who ensured everything was kept under wraps. All eyes are on Murali Vijay and his role on the bouncy and fast tracks of South Africa. After being sidelined for long, the Indian opener has finally made a grand entry, scoring runs in the Test series against Sri Lanka. If Murali Vijay is in top form, Ajinkya’s wobbling batting has left a big question mark on his form. He was a mere traveler against Sri Lanka, losing his wicket cheaply and putting his team in trouble. Once hailed for his batsmanship, Ajinkya is no more the same player in Test cricket. There is no denying the fact that he can comeback easily, considering his career so far but he will have to do basics right in the future assignments. There is more to read from cricket in this issue.

Supporting Colour Blindness in Education and Beyond


Book Description

Would you be surprised to know, one child in every average class of thirty is Colour Blind? Colour Blindness can be a barrier to learning across the whole curriculum, yet most schools cannot identify all their Colour Blind children, and practitioners often cannot recall teaching a child with it. This essential guide explores Colour Blindness, an often-unrecognised special educational need and disability (SEND). It gives you the tools and confidence to ensure children with Colour Blindness can reach their full potential. It helps you to understand what the condition is so you can easily make your teaching accessible and inclusive to all Colour Blind children, undiagnosed or not. The book: • Offers detailed and practical guidance for identifying Colour Blindness and catering for it from early years through to higher education and beyond. • Focuses on simple and easy-to-implement strategies to ensure Colour Blind children are not disadvantaged, dispelling myths and misguidance along the way. • Discusses how educators and parents can work together to raise the child’s self-esteem, seeking solutions and interventions that do not single them out, or in fact remove colour as a useful tool for those that see it normally. This accessible book is vital reading for SENDCos, teachers and classroom assistants, from nursery through to upper secondary, as well as the parents and carers of Colour Blind children.




This Golden Fleece


Book Description

“A book about wool and sheep, the making of Scotland, England and farming, textile manufacture, folklore and, crucially, the essential craft of knitting.” —Janice Galloway, author of Jellyfish Over the course of a year, Esther Rutter—who grew up on a sheep farm in Suffolk, and learned to spin, weave and knit as a child—travels the length of the British Isles, to tell the story of wool’s long history here. She unearths fascinating histories of communities whose lives were shaped by wool, from the mill workers of the Border countries, to the English market towns built on profits of the wool trade, and the Highland communities cleared for sheep farming; and finds tradition and innovation intermingling in today’s knitwear industries. Along the way, she explores wool’s rich culture by knitting and crafting culturally significant garments from our history—among them gloves, a scarf, a baby blanket, socks and a fisherman’s jumper—reminding us of the value of craft and our intimate relationship with wool. This Golden Fleece is at once a meditation on the craft and history of knitting, and a fascinating exploration of wool’s influence on our landscape, history and culture. “Wondrous.” —BBC Countryfile “A yarn well told.” —The Irish Times “A compelling literary journey through the social history of wool in the British Isles.” —Karen Lloyd, author of The Gathering Tide “[Rutter’s] stops on her journey around Britain also knit together the past and the present, the social, historical and the personal, in an altogether engaging way.” —Books from Scotland
