Product Description
Mirroring, doubling, imitation, parody, intertextuality. The contributors to this volume â all postgraduate researchers at the time of writing â engage with some of these familiar words to produce articles that deal with the concept of âreflections❠in literary and visual culture. Ranging from Italian Golden Age theatre to contemporary French literature and from Cuban film to German fiction, the twelve essays in this volume provide a fresh look at Modern Language Studies, highlighting in particular, the interdisciplinary nature of this field.On one level, the volume speaks to those exploring Modern Language Studies for the first time, for example, undergraduate students, who seek a greater understanding of the dialogue between language and culture. However, the individual essays also have the potential to attract experienced scholars either looking for new knowledge on specialist subjects, or ways of approaching research in Modern Languages. Through its central theme, Reflections: New Perspectives in Modern Languages and Cultures makes some suggestions about the way forward for Modern Language Studies. ... Read more

The Best Book to Begin Writing and Reading Workshops
I have been looking for a book that gives a step-by-step approach to reading and writing workshop.Workshops That Works by Kirsten Widmer is that book.I have been trying to implement these workshops but have only been able to implement parts of them.The author of this book took the reader through fifteen lessons each, from start to finish to extensions, for reading and writing workshops.Because of this book, I have been able to implement the workshop format into my middle school classes.This book is a must read if you are a teacher who is serious about implementing the reading and/or writing workshop into your classroom.

Super, super book!
This is a super book for teachers who are looking for concrete guidance on how to implement minilessons and the readers/writers workshop model.It is clearly written, well-organized, and easy to follow.I recommmend it!

Worth Purchasing!!
This book is perfect for those teachers who want to start a Reader's and Writer's Workshop in their classrooms but are confused as to where to begin.The book basically tells you what mini lessons to teach and how to teach them the first month of school.This book is definitely worth purchasing!!

Finally....a Practical Book for Classroom Use!!
I've read a lot of books for perfecting classroom practice but there are few that provide teachers with the actual "nuts and bolts" practicality that new teachers need.Literacy teachers who need a handle on the workshop model (both reading and writing) need look no further than "Workshops that Work".Having had the privilege to work alongside both these teachers and see them in action, I can tell you firsthand that they've managed to capture their classroom magic on the printed page- this is a tome that can stand proudly next to books by Calkins, Fletcher, Robb and other experts in the field! ...
