Extractions: Customer Reviews I found this to be one of the most useful books for teaching writing skills. It is loaded with ideas that can be used in the classroom and can be used with teaching teachers how to teach writing skills. This book has some of the most creative and effective ideas I have seen in a long time. In fact I loaned it to someone about a year ago and have not seen it since. This demonstrates its quality. It is an easy read with samples that one can use in class forever. I recommend it highly. This book provides numerous ideas and suggestions for creative and purposeful writing activities for upper elementary level students. The activities are easy to intergrate in a busy classroom, can be adapted for different grade and ability levels, and the kids love them!

Extractions: Robert Cowden Dickson was born in Redlands, California, December 22, 1904, the oldest of four children born to Arthur and Maude Dickson. His death occurred February 13, 1987, following an illness associated with a severe arthritic condition. His early childhood years were spent near Beaumont, California, but, at about age eight, he moved with the family to a farm near Yuma, Arizona, where he finished grammar school and graduated from Yuma High School. He helped his father run the farm and often provided meat for the family table through his prowess with the shotgun and his knowledge of the habits of ducks and other game animals in the area. During his years in the Yuma area, he developed an extensive knowledge of the plant and animal life in the deserts of the Southwest. This knowledge, which he augmented throughout his life through an extensive perusal of the scientific literature, served him well as he was often called upon to identify plants, insects and other animals of the region. Bob, as he was known to colleagues, enrolled in the University of Redlands and completed the bachelor of arts degree in the spring of 1929. While an undergraduate he met co-ed Melissa McKellar whom he married in the fall of 1929. She often accompanied and assisted him on his many trips to scientific meetings and field trips associated with his research activities. Her death occurred in 1976.

Extractions: Dilworth Darwin Jensen, distinguished entomologist and authority on insects as vectors of plant pathogens, died suddenly of an aneurysm in Berkeley, California, April 1, 1973. Born in Huntsville, Utah on October 1, 1910, ninth in a family of ten children, his early years on a farm gave him a lasting concern for the values of rural life. He attended the University of Utah and then Utah State University where he received his B.S. degree in 1935. In 1936 he earned a M.S. degree in entomology at the University of California, Berkeley. Work, marriage, service to the Mormon church, and a continuation of his graduate education were the framework of his next few years. He joined the U.S. Department of Agriculture in 1939 and, until 1944, was active in the search for the vector of the destructive peach mosaic virus. During this period he characteristically utilized his extra energy to complete his doctoral dissertation on the systematics of the Psyllidae. He was awarded the Ph.D. degree in 1943 at the University of California, Berkeley. His urge and desire to teach, as well as to do research, led him to accept a position, in 1944, in the Department of Entomology, University of Hawaii. There he worked on a variety of entomological projects, including the transmission of papaya ringspot virus by insects. He was elected president of the Hawaiian Entomological Society in 1945.

Extractions: I teach two graduate courses, Population Ecology and Population Analysis . Population Ecology is team-taught with Dr. Kirk Moloney of Botany and it covers basic theory of population dynamics including growth models, predation, competition, and population projection. Population Analysis covers statistical and analytical techniques for estimating parameters of biological populations, and is frequently taken by students from Entomology Statistics , and Zoology/Genetics . I also teach an undergraduate course called Ecological Methods which includes elements of statistical design, population sampling and estimation, field sampling of vegetation, and mapping habitat using geographic information systems.
