Help maximize your child’s chances of acing gifted and talented admissions tests! When it comes to gifted test prep, don’t risk your son or daughter being unprepared and underperforming on test day.

Your child must be familiar with test material AND be able to focus on test material for longer than the typical 4-5 minute attention span of most young kids. This book offers a chance to do both.

This resource focuses on three aptitude tests commonly used for gifted program screening: the OLSAT® (Level A), NNAT2® (Level A), and the COGAT® (Level 5/6).

- Ensure your child has sufficient experience in answering gifted test questions, thanks to this book’s 200+ practice questions. (Plus, after you purchase this book, look inside your book for info to instantly download your free 40+ question bonus eBook.)

- Make sure (s)he has acquired the mental stamina to focus on test questions with the book’s Practice Tests for the OLSAT®, NNAT2®, and COGAT® (the book’s “Practice Question Sets”).

- Pinpoint your child’s areas of strength/weakness with the practice test answer key.

- Capture your child’s attention with bright, colorful illustrations and fun characters: 100 full-color pages.

- Exercises focus on cognitive skill-building, reasoning skills, and problem solving abilities and thoroughly cover the tests’ sections: OLSAT® (10 test sections), NNAT2® (2 test sections), COGAT® (9 test sections).

Engaging young, creative, and boisterous minds with test prep material is challenging - that’s why this book features fun characters, child-friendly themes, and colorful illustrations. Such engagement can help kids retain the information they’ll learn in this book – and then apply it on test day!

What are your kid’s dreams – to be a doctor, astronaut, or perhaps…president? Gaining acceptance to a coveted gifted and talented program or earning a spot in a sought-after, selective school could determine your child’s educational path – or even his or her future career.

Help your child dream big and take the first steps on this exciting educational journey and achieve their dreams. YOU are your child’s best teacher, and this book is here to help!

Great G&T prep for NYC schools We bought this to help our daughter become familiar with the questions on the G&T test for NYC schools. We didn't pressure, but let her do as much as she wanted, as long as it was fun—which was usually many pages at a time! She wound up scoring very well on the test and got into our first-choice school. How much did the book help? Hard to say, but I think it was money well spent.A bit too simple I didn't find this book very helpful for NYC G&T, which consists only of NNAT and OLSAT. The problems in this book appeared to be too simple in comparison to problems in other books. This book might be good for general development of a younger child.Good work book Good work book, not sufficient study aid for test. None of the material in here was on the cogat test, not sure where they are getting their info from.

How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk Free Pdf

ISBN: B007ZT6RHY
Title: How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk Pdf

The ultimate "parenting bible" (The Boston Globe) with a new Foreword-a timeless, beloved book on how to effectively communicate with your child from the number-one New York Times best-selling authors.

Internationally acclaimed experts on communication between parents and children, Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish "are doing for parenting today what Dr. Spock did for our generation" (Parent Magazine). Now, this best-selling classic includes fresh insights and suggestions as well as the author's time-tested methods to solve common problems and build foundations for lasting relationships, including innovative ways to:

  • Cope with your child's negative feelings, such as frustration, anger, and disappointment
  • Express your strong feelings without being hurtful
  • Engage your child's willing cooperation
  • Set firm limits and maintain goodwill
  • Use alternatives to punishment that promote self-discipline
  • Understand the difference between helpful and unhelpful praise
  • Resolve family conflicts peacefully

Enthusiastically praised by parents and professionals around the world, the down-to-earth, respectful approach of Faber and Mazlish makes relationships with children of all ages less stressful and more rewarding.

Was not very useful with my teen, but surprise, surprise, worked like a charm for my 7 year old. I have a 15 year old daughter and while there are no major problems and we communicate very openly and honestly about everything, there are still moments where I feel that either I am treating things the right way or she is being rude. I bought the book hoping that it would greatly improve our already good rapport. This book is probably very helpful for parents who do not have an open line of communication with their teens, parents who are either too strict or too lenient or too afraid to have honest conversations with their kids. I did not find the book personally to be very helpful because my daughter has the maturity of a 25 year old and will laugh at some of the most of the tricks and tips described in this book. However, this did not turn out to be a complete waste because I started using some of the techniques with my spoiled little bratty 7 year old and it worked! An example: one evening he was majorly pissed because he could not get home in time to watch his TV show. So instead of trying to calm him down in a traditional way by telling him that it was not a huge deal, I used the fantasy strategy from the book and said "Wouldn't you wish the car could just fly and we would be home in a second?" Right away, his tears stopped and he said "Yeah, and I also wish that you could always go back and see the missed parts of your shows" to which I said "You know, someone thought about that and invented DVR, we don't have it at our house, but we can look into it, OK?" At that point, he was all smiles. One very important point I learned from the book, as parents, we tend to often disregard our kids feelings about what we perceive to be minor things such as missing a show, but to kids, these things are major. We can't expect them to yet understand that such small problem is nothing compared to major bad stuff that happens in the world.Best parenting book I've read (out of about 30) Best parenting book I've read (out of about 30). I recommend this to anyone who spends lots of time with children or other people. I read a lot of parenting books (I love to read, and I love books, and I'm a parent of twin toddlers. I'm also a pediatrician). Often others (husband, friends) want to know about them without having to actually take the time to read them. This book is perfect for that. It has great summaries, many specific examples, and the pictures (comics) are actual examples that summarize the key points. The book can be enjoyed on my levels, but the one the authors intend -- taking a week or two to practice the techniques in each chapter-- has worked very well for my family. This book is about mindfulness, and walks you through listening to yourself first and then being ready to hear others. Once you have seen constructive ways to respond to your own inner voice, you become empowered to listen to others. And by modeling a constructive way to respond to negative thoughts and actions, you become the teacher. Faber and Mazlish have really done it right here. This book is gold!Wonderful resources for parents Incredibly helpful book! This has helped a lot in finding a good communication channel with my 4 year old son. The constant battles of "But I don't want to" "I want to do this instead" are now easily handled. I really enjoy having the skills explained in my "parent toolbox". As recommended, I wrote them out and put them on the fridge for quicker references for those "on the spot" moments. Highly recommended if you have a child that wont' listen to you, ignores you or you otherwise experience parenting issues rooted in communication and listening with your child.

Persuasion Free Pdf

ISBN: 0205912966
Title: Persuasion Pdf Social Influence and Compliance Gaining, 5e
Author: Robert H. Gass
Published Date: 2013

Persuasion: Social Influence and Compliance Gaining first helps students understand established theories and models of persuasion.  It then encourages them to develop and apply general conclusions about persuasion in real-world settings.

The 5th edition explores how social media continues to be a form of influence, but it also looks at grassroots movements, such as the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street, and traditional forms of persuasion, such as advertising, marketing, and political campaigning.

Would read even if it wasn't for a class Fun read! The authors make it as funny as they can while still being informative. Good examples. Nice read - I would have enjoyed reading it even if it wasn't for a classBEST TEXTBOOK I'VE READ YET! I had to read this book for a communications class at Regent University and it has been the most entertaining and informative textbooks I have yet to read. It's even one of the most entertaining books that I've read, PERIOD.A good introductory text A good introduction to the theoretical underpinnings of persuasion and the forms it can take, the types of people who are most susceptible to it, as well as its use in corporate language, advertising and PR. What I felt was missing was a roadmap of how one can be more influential in practical terms. That said, I still have a chapter or two left...
