Books with author Ann Quigley

As teachers grapple with the challenge of a new, bigger and more challenging school curriculum, at every key stage and phase, success can feel beyond our reach. But what if there were 50,000 small solutions to help us bridge that gap? In Closing the Vocabulary Gap, the author explores the increased demands of an academic curriculum and how closing the vocabulary gap between our ‘word poor’ and ‘word rich’ students could prove the vital difference between school failure and success. This must-read book presents the case for teacher-led efforts to develop students' vocabulary and provides practical solutions for teachers across the curriculum, incorporating easy-to-use tools, resources and classroom activities.

How far would you go? If human society was genuinely at risk, how cruel and heartless would our conscience allow us to be, in order to preserve humanity? If you thought the only means of preserving humanity was to capture, imprison and breed humans against their will - would you sanction it? How far would you go... to save the ones you love? After taking shelter with the Refugees, and with Thor and Walt by her side, Ariet brings Sam into the world. Having left Mason behind to bring down the leaders of the New World, Ariet and her Guardian Thor struggle to hide Sam's abilities from the Refugees. Although the Refugees have become accepting of them, will they try and use Sam's abilities to their advantage? A war is being staged and if his genetic abilities are replicated, the Refugees could create a super army. With the aid of Walt and a handful of people she trusts, Ariet and Thor risk everything to protect Sam. Will it be enough? This book is a horror story, a coming of age story and dark, thought experiment into the extreme application of genetic selection. It raises interesting ethical questions and poses the question - How far would you go?
