Description
TeacherTEACHER was first published in 1963 to excited acclaim. Its author, Sylvia Ashton Warner, who lived in New Zealand and spent many years teaching Maori children, found that Maoris taught according to British methods were not learning to read. They were passionate, moody children, bred in an ancient legend haunted tradition; how could she build them a bridge to European culture that would enable them to take hold of the great joy of reading?

TEACHER was first published in 1963 to excited acclaim. Its author, Sylvia Ashton-Warner, who lived in New Zealand and spent many years teaching Maori children, found that Maoris taught according to British methods were not learning to read. They were passionate, moody children, bred in an ancient legend-haunted tradition; how could she build them a bridge to European culture that would enable them to take hold of the great joy of reading? Ashton-Warner devised a method whereby written words became prized possessions for her students. Today, her findings are strikingly relevant to the teaching of socially disadvantaged and non-English-speaking students. TEACHER is part diary, part inspired description of Ashton-Warner's teaching method in action. Her fiercely loved children come alive individually, as do the unique setting and the character of this extraordinary woman.Binding Type: Paperback

Powerful Little Book
Format: Kindle
I enjoyed this book so much that I have the kindle version and the paperback. Sometimes its hard to pray or I don’t know how to pray but I can grab this book and chose the topic I need in that moment. If I am out an about then I pull it up on the kindle app on the phone or iPad. It can be used daily to start your day. Lady’s she even includes a decree/prayer for energy and to keep our hormones balanced!!! It’s the very first decree/prayer in the book. For the end of the day there are decrees on restful sleep and visions and dreams from God. You can start your day with this book and end your day with it. Anything that pops up during the day that overwhelms you then this book probably has the decree you need in that very moment.
I really enjoy that it is written in such a way that I am not praying alone but praying in agreement with others. Where two or more agree on anything it will be done (paraphrased Matt 18-19) I can almost hear Brenda praying these with me sometimes. There is something very comforting knowing that you are not praying these alone.
This book has also helped/encouraged me to start writing my own scripture base decrees.

I highly recommend this book. If you aren't sure how to pray a PRAYER for a specific area in your life or a loved ones life. This is the book for you.
Format: Kindle
I rated it 5 stars because thru my whole life there have been situations PRAYER was needed. I didn't know how to word them. I would just say GOD please help or save my family members, pets, friends, neighbors and myself. From death, hurts, harms and from the enemy. I glorify and thank GOD for this book of decrees. There might be about 100 decrees. Each section is the title, the decree Brenda and others prayed for and are anointed by GOD, scripture from bible, then word of encouragement that gives you examples or what to do. In the word of encouragement it tells you how to decree it for yourself. So it's 2 decrees at the same time. The one Brenda an others prayed for and the one you decree yourself in JESUS name. AMEN. Remember where more than one pray for the same thing, believe it and it's ours. I will continue to read a few each day. It fills my soul with cheer and joy. GOD bless you. GOD is good. He created this decree book thru his servant for me and others who might need guidance in how to pray and decree.
