      Semantic correlations

      Build Stronger Semantic and Vocabulary Skills Through Meaningful Word Relationships

      by Alice Kassotaki - Speech Language Pathologist MSc, BSc

      A visual and structured approach to concept categorization and word recall. Semantic Correlations, authored by speech-language pathologist Alice Kassotaki, MSc, BSc, is a carefully designed tool that helps children enhance their lexical and semantic processing abilities. Centered on the principle that new concepts are more easily acquired when linked to existing knowledge, this book guides learners through tasks that reinforce the understanding of semantic relationships and support immediate information recall. The activities unfold over two levels of difficulty. In the first, children are presented with three words, one of which does not belong to the studied category, allowing them to explore differences and establish common semantic properties. In the second, more advanced level, all three words fall within the same category, challenging learners to identify deeper similarities before classifying them. This progression fosters cognitive flexibility and semantic accuracy. Children work on skills such as vocabulary enrichment, receptive and expressive language, categorization, and semantic reasoning. By using hierarchical structures that show the transition from general to specific concepts, the book creates an intuitive visual guide that deepens comprehension. With translation rights available, Semantic Correlations is an ideal addition to any publisher’s special education or speech therapy collection.

      Being Able to Stop

      Against the delusion of permanent growth

      by Edited by Jean-Pierre Wils

      We moderns were the inhabitants of an age of impetuous forward movement and voracious discontent. Our main virtue was to increase our reach. Increasing our having and accelerating our being were the signposts towards the future. We just could not get enough. Using the blinkers of ignorance and self-anaesthesia, however, we managed to forget the tremendous costs incurred by this intoxication. Now disillusionment has set in. We look to the future with anxiety. We know that we have long since crossed a line and that a revision of our lifestyle is imminent. We have a bad feeling, and doubts about progress often give way to anger and rebellion. Which stocks of the modern narrative should we defend; which would we do better to let go? How will we even "be able to stop"? The path to a different society needs an attractive goal, because without the prospect of a different, better life, we will not move forward. We should start practising immediately. There is no time to lose.

      Greta’s Voice

      by Ged Umlimi / Amelina Jones

      Very few people had the courage and the chance to change the course of events in history. Ghandi was one of them. Rosa Parks was another. But for the first time, a teenager stood up. Greta Thunberg started with small steps, sitting in front of the Swedish Parliament and later skipping schools on every Friday in order to demand action on climate crisis. In time, she inspired millions of young people and adults around the world to take to the streets to demand the same. Greta’s Voice is the real story of the 16-year-old climate activist, a story that will give hope to people of all ages and prove to children that they don’t need to wait becoming a grown up to make a difference. Greta’s is a story of persistence and inspiration, a wake up call for us all. We hope we will stop the climate crisis altogether
