Recenzii

"This book is full of information on best-practices and resources such as lesson plan templates, checklists, websites and apps that can be straightforwardly applied in a classroom. Feasible and innovative instructional strategies are presented in an organized, concise fashion. Particularly useful are the at –a-glance listings of the DO's and DON’Ts for teaching, which identifies actions that the authors frequently observed that act as obstacles for teaching success, as well as those actions that maximize the chance of elementary teachers making a positive impact on elementary school students and the summary of different teaching approaches. The comprehensive amount of resources included ensures that the book is applicable for prospective teachers as well as practicing teachers. Both audiences will appreciate the insight and classrooms experiences shared by the expert educators. The book cites key research and includes the impact of educational trends and developments, such as the Common Core, throughout. A major strength of this book is that it addresses the diversity of modern day classrooms; the wide range of student skills and personalities. The strategies presented are creative and applicable to copious classroom situations and content areas. The book will be very useful as a reference guide as presents a variety of strategies and expert knowledge in different kinds of instruction. Chapters such as “Arts Integration What Really Works in Science in the Elementary Classroom” will prompt instructors towards positive innovation in their classrooms. This book would serve as a valuable text in teaching methods courses to inform prospective teachers about teaching as it covers new and contemporary as well as more teaching time-tested and concepts with clear, step-by-step explanations."

WRW is more than a book. This is a life-changing experience for teachers, regardless of how many years you have been teaching. It is a direct line to the absolute experts and most current research on how to get the results every teacher wants for all students in their classrooms. This books presents techniques with quick easy to understand do's and dont's and how to's on every page from cover to cover. This will be one of the most influential and utilizied books that any teacher owns.
Wow, what a fantastic resource! Over 400 pages of strategies, research, suggestions, and information that is relevant for any teacher, at any year of experience. From lesson planning ideas to building inclusive classrooms to management techniques, I wish I had this resource my first year as an elementary teacher. At minimum, it should be practical and required reading at any school of education!
