From time immemorial, people have sought to understand the mysteries of the natural world, giving rise to a wealth of myths and legends connected to plant life. In addition to their imaginative appeal, these oral traditions offered practical advice about which flowers, trees, and plants could provide foods, remedies, and construction materials. This richly illustrated volume provides a treasury of ancient wisdom, exploring the sound principles behind traditional advice, along with a wealth of fanciful beliefs. Naturalist Ruth Binney recounts charming examples of floral symbolism, linking roses with romance, lilies with purity, and poppies with sleep. She examines tree lore and the association of trees with wisdom and knowledge, from the coveted crown of laurel awarded to ancient Greek poets and Roman generals to the palm branches presented to pilgrims returning from the Holy Land. A survey of the power of plants ranges from the rituals that ensure a good harvest and a newly married couple's fertility to the healing qualities of oil of cloves for toothache, cherries for gout, and aloe vera for burns. Abounding in fascinating facts and fancies, this absorbing compilation will captivate lovers of plants and gardens.

This ebook collects 17 of the best Vietnamese tales. Every tale takes you to go to a fantastic world. You will be amazed by every story and get a lesson about life from this. Vietnamese folk tales are a treasure trove of cultural heritage that holds immense value. Crafted by the Vietnamese people from ancient times, these stories possess a folkloric charm that is approachable, intimate, and easily accessible to everyone. The narratives vividly reflect the lively lives and culture of the Vietnamese people. Many stories explain the existence of certain objects or phenomena, such as the tales of "Bánh Chưng, Bánh Dầy," "Sơn Tinh, and Thủy Tinh." Meanwhile, others impart moral lessons about human philosophy, the essence of life, and karmic repercussions, exemplified in stories like "Thạch Sanh - Lý Thông" and "Tấm Cám." All these stories convey at least one message that we should appreciate and preserve. This is an invaluable legacy, a vibrant and rich heritage that our ancestors have distilled over thousands of years in building and safeguarding the nation. It is my hope that each of us will find joy, happiness, and a deep appreciation for the precious traditional values passed down by our forefathers.

Multilingual Learners And Academic Literacies written by Daniella Molle and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2015-03-05 with Language Arts & Disciplines categories.
Shifting the discourse from a focus on academic language to the more dynamic but less researched construct of academic literacies, this volume addresses three key questions: • What constitutes academic literacy? • What does academic literacy development in adolescent multilingual students look like and how can this development be assessed? • What classroom contexts foster the development of academic literacies in multilingual adolescents? The contributing authors provide divergent definitions of academic literacies and use dissimilar theoretical and methodological approaches to study literacy development. Nevertheless, all chapters reflect a shared conceptual framework for examining academic literacies as situated, overlapping, meaning-making practices. This framework foregrounds students’ participation in valued disciplinary literacy practices. Emphasized in the new college and career readiness standards, the notion of disciplinary practices allows the contributing authors to bridge the language/content dichotomy, and take a more holistic as well as nuanced view of the demands that multilingual students face in general education classrooms. The volume also explores the implications of the emphasis on academic literacy practices for classroom instruction, research, and policy.
