In The Power of Pictures book and companion DVD, Beth Olshansky introduces teachers to her innovative art-based approach to literacy instruction. Widely practiced in classrooms across the country, the model has been proven by research to improve literacy achievement with a wide range of learners, especially those who struggle with verbal skills. At the heart of her approach is the Artists/Writers Workshop. Through study of quality picture books and hands-on art experiences, students learn to visualize, "paint pictures with words," and ultimately create their own extraordinary artistic and literary work. The book and DVD explain how any teacher can successfully use this process to enable all students, particularly low performers, to make dramatic gains in both reading and writing.Binding Type: Paperback

Comfortable & Right Fit

Light Grey, XL
*Item returned before use due to color change*
Quality every day blazer. Good material didn't feel cheap or come with lose threads.
When buttoned the blazer laid flat, I had room in chest and stomach but didn't seem baggy.
Shoulders fit across without pinching or buckling around pads.
Arm length didn't hang past wrist when arms were at my side and also didn't pull too high when raising.
My measurements:
More of a solid, muscular build but still very average.

Chest 44" (circumference)
Shoulders 20" (length taken from back)
Waist: 38" (circumference)
Arms: 26" (length taken down outside of arm)

Fit is decent. Sleeve are to long for me but I often have that issue. Was VERY wrinkled when it arrived. Had to be pressed before I could wear it out.

great product received on time and quality.
Size: Medium, Color: Dark Grey
Pretty professional and great outlook wearing it with a tie. Can be used in any environment but not in a warmth area with a Jacket. Feels pretty comfortable. Material was great indeed and pretty silky from the inside.
