New Teachers Handbook and
Successful Teaching Practices in Action CD Rom (Required)
| A
prestigious group of educators, including school
superintendents and university professors, served
as advisors to the classroom teachers who authored
this book. The book is a completely revised
and updated version of a book that IMPACT II
published 10 years ago under the same title. |
| New teachers can be easily
overwhelmed by the demands of those first days
in the classroom. Many wish they could spend
a day with a seasoned veteran, learning from
their experience. With the new Successful
Teaching Practices in Action series,
now they can! Created as a companion piece to
Teachers Network’s best-selling publication
New Teachers Handbook,
this compilation of videos features veteran
teachers in action, in their classrooms. The
first CD in the series features videos on Classroom
Management, Aligning Standards, Curriculum,
and Assessment, and Cooperative
Groups. New teachers can refine their classroom
management style with a successful first-grade
teacher, observe the benefits of cooperative
learning on a third-grade math project, or explore
new methods for aligning their lesson plans
with state standards, and watch as students
take responsibility for their own achievement! |
|
The
second CD of the series, More Successful
Teaching Practices in Action, features
videos on Teaching Methods, Families as Partners,
and Strategic Planning. Teachers
can expand their repertoire of teaching methods
by using differentiated instruction. They can
learn how to successfully involve their students'
families in classroom activities to advance student
achievement. Or they can watch as two second grade
teachers demonstrate that when it comes to lesson
planning, two heads really are better than one! |
