Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In an era of decreasing commitment to literacy . . . it is no surprise that most students, too, are bypassing books. So wrote English teacher Jim Burke in a seminal letter to the San Francisco Chronicle-seminal because of the astounding response that ensued when he invited readers to write to my high school students about your experiences with books, perhaps telling them what role books and literature have played in your life. More than one thousand pages of letters came pouring in. The best are collected in this funny, poignant, and inspiring book.As poet Muriel Rukeyser wrote, Our lives are not made up of atoms. They are made of stories, and here we find plenty of them-stories from librarians and celebrities, nuns and felons, cattle ranchers and artists, second graders and septuagenarians. Through their experiences, we become enveloped in a rich tapestry of life. And isn't that the miracle of reading itself, its ability to inspire us across the full spectrum of humanity? Each letter is preceded by an insightful quote from a famous person musing on the power of books. The appendixes feature extensive lists of recommended books for all types of readers, including lists broken into categories like Ten Books We Should All Read Before Childhood Ends and Ten Books a Teenage Boy Would Want to Read.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Joy's questions and Jim's responses evoke in us an appreciation for what it means to do the work called teaching with the living intensity of soul. May such soulful teaching flourish among us: here is a book that can help it be so. - Parker Palmer and Sam Intrator Every new teacher needs a mentor, someone smart, experienced, compassionate, and reliable to give advice, share strategies, and lend a supportive ear. What if every new English teacher could have one the nation's most-recognized master teachers as their mentor? Now they can. Letters to a New Teacher is the chance of a professional lifetime, an opportunity to read the letters and emails Jim Burke exchanged with novice teacher Joy Krajicek - letters in which Jim opens his practice, his mind, and his heart to guide Joy through her first year in the classroom. Jim fields the whole gamut of questions - from typical classroom-management matters to challenging instructional situations to sensitive topics like the boundaries of student-teacher relationships. His answers open the classroom experience up for novices to understand how to organize their space and time, how to plan instruction yet maintain flexibility, how to communicate effectively with the two-hundred personalities they encounter each day, and how to maintain professionalism under pressure. As gentle, humorous, and supportive as they are practical, Jim's responses to Joy's questions are immediately useful and are presented in chronological order. From August through June, you'll watch as her questions become increasingly complex and see how Jim's answers build upon one another to create a considered, consistent, and disciplined way of thinking about the teaching of English. Start a your career the right way. Read Letters to a New Teacher and put the thoughts of a master mentor to work in your classroom. Or give Letters to a New Teacher to a novice so they can discover a wellspring of ideas, a source for emotional sustenance, and a buoy for their spirits during difficult moments.…
