Mathematics For All (1963) by R. Wesley - saying that he had a few contributors as follows:

G. C. T. Bowen, B.Sc. (Bachelor of Science)
A. G. G. Richards, B.Sc.
I. R. Vesselo, M.Ed. (Masters of Education), B.Sc.
R. W. Webster, M.A. (CANTAB. - which I think is referring to a member of the University of Cambridge)
R. Wesley, B.Sc.

A book I especially like because it gives numerous examples of application (which without - I think math is nearly worthless for the average person)



Rousseau - Émile, or Education (1969) - considered by Rousseau (according to Wikipedia) to be the “best and most important of all my writings”. On its first appearance in 1762 it was publicly burned.

Technically it's five books in one, but this book I do not intend to burn. I have found some of his logic in it valid, but it being one of Rousseau I will be taking it with a pinch of salt...










Aristotle - Politics The Athenian Constitution (1959?)

read about 1/3 and decided would be better to read it in parts at a time to understand it more fully etc...










teach yourself home education (2009) by Deborah Durbin

saw this at the library and thought I would update myself on the benefits and minuses of homeschooling and some of its technicalities













Some of you may know I'm looking into teacher - so something else I wanted to read up on that I found from the library -

What Every Teacher Should Know About - The Profession and Politics of Teaching by Donna Walker Tileston, Ed. D (Doctor of Education degree) - pretty good book













Prayer Requests:

I would like you to pray for a friend Michelle. She needs a job, suitable for her, as jobs are hard to get these days.

Janet Frew - an 88 yr old lady I visit every other week - pray that she gets saved this year

Alan Mantle - that he would get saved this year - a good friend to the family and personal friend to Dad who plays snooker with him once a week on Monday Nights

Bill and Anne Brand - a atheist husband and catholic wife - that they would get saved this year

The Masters - Single parent mom and her two children, which one might be saved - but that they would truly get saved
