These lessons are based on James' gender research and are applicable for both coed and all male classrooms. Grammar, literacy, algebra, and geometry lesson plans cover the subjects where boys' brains differ the most from their female classmates. These lesson plans offer specific strategies for improving the subject areas where boys often fall behind in by identifying a common weakness of typical boy learners, describing a strategy for working on this weakness, then providing specific examples of that strategy in action"-- Provided by publisher. 606 $aExperiential learning 606 $aActive learning 606 $aLearning, Psychology of 606 $aBoys$xEducation 606 $aSex differences in education 615 0$aExperiential learning. 615 0$aActive learning. 615 0$aLearning, Psychology of. 615 0$aBoys$xEducation. 615 0$aSex differences in education. 676 $a371.39 686 $aEDU029000$2bisacsh 700 $aJames$b Abigail Norfleet$01629488 702 $aAllison$b Sandra Boyd 702 $aMcKenzie$b Caitlin Zimmerman 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815349903321 996 $aActive lessons for active brains$93967250 997 $aUNINA
