John Thompson Bücher

Der zweite Teil der Klavierschule baut auf den Inhalten des ersten Bandes auf und führt neue Noten und Techniken ein. Fröhliche Figuren motivieren die jungen Schüler durch gezielte Übungen, die das Vom-Blatt-Spielen fördern. Die Stücke sind so gestaltet, dass zunächst nur eine Hand zum Spielen benötigt wird, um die Sicherheit zu stärken, bevor das zweistimmige Spiel beginnt. Ergänzende Schreib- und Hausaufgaben sorgen für eine umfassende Lernerfahrung. Klavierspielen wird so spielerisch und unkompliziert vermittelt.

Fehlendes Grundlagenwissen frustriert die einen, andere hält es vom Weiterlernen ab. Ob Gleichungen und lineare Funktionen in Algebra oder die Konstruktion von Bildpunkten in der Geometrie – wer die klassischen Themen des Curriculums nicht beherrscht, der wird auch im weiteren Unterricht nicht mithalten können. Mit einfachen, klaren Arbeitsblättern in drei bis vier Schwierigkeitsstufen können Sie gezielt die mathematischen „Schwachstellen“ Ihrer Schüler beheben. Die Aktivitäten können einzeln oder aufeinander aufbauend genutzt werden und eignen sich für die Einzel- und Gruppenarbeit. Sie fördern das Diskutieren sowie schriftliche Formulieren von Lösungen und bieten die Möglichkeit der Selbstkontrolle. Ausführliche Lehrerseiten geben Hinweise zum Einsatz im Unterricht. Ideales Material für Wiederholung und Freiarbeit!

"John Thompson was never just a basketball coach and I Came As a Shadow is categorically not just a basketball autobiography. After three decades at the center of race and sports in America, the first Black head coach to win an NCAA championship is ready to make the private public. Chockful of stories and moving beyond mere stats (and what stats! three Final Fours, four times national coach of the year, seven Big East championships, 97 percent graduation rate), Thompson's book drives us through his childhood under Jim Crow segregation to our current moment of racial reckoning. We experience riding shotgun with Celtics icon Red Auerbach, and coaching NBA Hall of Famers like Patrick Ewing and Allen Iverson. How did he inspire the phrase "Hoya Paranoia"? You'll see. And thawing his historically glacial stare, Thompson brings us into his negotiation with a DC drug kingpin in his players' orbit in the 1980s, as well as behind the scenes on the Nike board today. Thompson's mother was a teacher who couldn't teach because she was Black. His father could not read or write, so the only way he could identify different cements at the factory where he worked was to taste them. Their son grew up to be a man with his own life-sized statue in a building that bears his family's name on a campus once kept afloat by the selling of 272 enslaved people. This is a great American story, and John Thompson's experience sheds light on many of the issues roiling our nation. In these pages, he proves himself to be the elder statesman college basketball and the country need to hear from now. I Came As A Shadow is not a swan song, but a bullhorn blast from one of America's most prominent sons." -- Amazon.com

Now available as a book and audio edition. A revised edition of the best-selling Piano course by John Thompson. Part three of this easy and fun approach to learning the Piano begins by showing the importance of playing and listening to music phrase by phrase rather than note by note. Examples of touch follow in proper sequence. Each book of the course contains its own writing exercises, sightreading drills, review work and later, technical studies. Accompaniments for teacher or parent are supplied with most of the examples. The accompanying audio is a wonderful tool for enhancing this method with highly acclaimed midi-orchestrated backing tracks. Practice becomes so much fun! Each track is split to enable the pupil to hear both Piano part and accompaniment if the balance is centred, the accompaniment without Piano if the balance is to the left, and the Piano part alone if the balance is all the way to the right. There are also two tempos for each song, allowing slower practice while it's needed - an ideal accompaniment for learning!
