As the amount of curriculum in today’s classrooms expands and teaching time seems to shrink, teachers are looking for ways to integrate content area and writing instruction. In this revised and expanded edition of Writing Across the Curriculum, Shelley Peterson shows teachers how to weave writing and content area instruction together in their classrooms. The author provides practical and helpful ideas for classroom teachers and content-area specialists to easily incorporate writer’s workshop while teaching in their subject area. New features in this second edition include: • Websites that can be used to teach writing (e.g., wiki’s, weblogs, and digital storytelling) • Examples from grades 4-8 classrooms that show how science, social studies, health, and mathematics teachers can also be teachers of poetry, narrative, and non-narrative writing • New assessment scoring guides • Information on working with struggling writers and supporting English Language Learners • Graphic organizers, templates, and mini-lessons that engage students in learning

The main focus is on a novel analysis, a first-time exposure of the true causes and a sensational immediate solution (which I rightly call a "trick") to our economic, monetary and financial problems, a solution that can not only be implemented in a sensationally short time, but is also made sustainable and lasting by accompanying measures. This sustainability of the solution, which goes hand in hand with the immediate effect of the trick, does not apply to the commercial banks, because they were only deliberately made into superficial scapegoats, the main evil being the algorithms used by the central banks to create so-called primary money creation. Within EMU, the "trick" involves the introduction of country-specific parallel currencies to the EURO. In detail, this is designed to create parallel economic areas, which, however, do not overlap the euro economic area, but rather fit exactly into the gaps that have been torn open within the euro economic area by undesirable developments. These incredibly important details are explained in detail in the book. With the implementation of such a basic solution (trick plus novel money creation at the central banks), the prerequisite would be created to also approach and solve other political problem areas, which have also been celebrated up to now "without alternatives", in the same "alternative" way of thinking, and therefore they are also taken up in the book, e.g: Pension policy, family policy, parliamentary reform, tax reform, reform of the electoral law, reform of care for the elderly, school policy, securing the European energy supply. However, these other political problem areas that I have taken up are to be regarded as secondary; they are merely suggestions, in contrast to the two main points of the basic solution, without which nothing at all can be done, and which I am calling for in the long term because no other promising alternative is known at present. Although my book naturally focuses on the German way out of the crisis, I would like to emphasize that I would like to see a European solution (at least for all countries of the European Monetary Union) and that a German solo effort is hardly feasible and also not desirable. The solutions I propose can be transferred practically 1:1 to all EMU countries, and I often point this out in my remarks. Even the non-EMU countries Great Britain and the USA could immediately adopt my concepts; for they face identical problems!
