Customer Reviews
Great but oh, the typos!
The approach is great and the book is very readable - the format of teachers talking amongst each other and suggesting solutions while admitting to being only human makes this book a partner as opposed to a lecturer. The comic strips may not appeal to everybody but they do work in this context. The ideas are not new, though, and the many, many typos are distracting. Please work this over and offer an edited version - a book about teaching and teachers should be free of misspellings.
Recommended if you can live with the sloppy editing.
Great!
Great book for new teachers to read! Also a great read for teachers who what been in the classroom as a refresher & reminder of the basics.
