Have you ever wondered how other teachers teach?
The best professional development is the teacher down the hall, but making time to collaborate and share best practices amongst colleagues is rarely built into the school schedule. You don’t have enough time to go to the bathroom or photocopy graphic organizers, let alone observe another teacher teach.
What if you could learn how other teachers teach on your own time?
Instead of spending hours searching for best practices, lesson and assignment ideas, and solutions to your biggest teaching challenges, we have done the hard work for you.In this e-book, you will learn why a veteran teacher, Marlee, teaches science in the middle grades. She will share four best practices and teaching strategies, and as a bonus, her favorite assignment.
Each E-Book in this series features a Table of Contents, a section on Why I Teach (Subject). Four Best Practices, and My Favorite Assignment.
