Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Educators are working at all hours, to diminishing returns and great personal costs. Many have accepted this as a reality of their profession, but it doesn't have to be. In Teacher Time Management: How to Prioritize Your Day So You Can Enjoy Your Evening, author Ellen I. Linnihan presents K-12 educators with a technique to manage themselves and their students so they can maximize their time and avoid burnout. She identifies three basic modes of operation-(1) low concentration, (2) medium concentration, and (3) high concentration-that teachers must master to optimize their time. By understanding their classroom's rhythm and completing the right work during the different modes, teachers can more efficiently reach their classroom goals and therefore improve their lives in and out of school'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Classrooms present diverse arrays of student personalities and behaviors. Teachers never know what unique combination of students they will lead each year, what gamut of behavior choices those students will make each day. The possibility of negative behaviors can be daunting to address, but teachers can shape their classrooms in ways that encourage students to examine and improve their behaviors without compromising their class performance and self-esteem. In Tools Not Rules: Developing Self-Regulation for Improved Student Behavior in Grades K-8, Claudia Bertolone-Smith and Marlene Moyer present the Tools Not Rules (TNR) approach, a method that empowers students in monitoring, understanding, and improving their behaviors. This approach encourages students to dissociate who they are as people from the good and bad choices they make, allowing them to assess and regulate their behaviors more effectively without detrimental consequences of self-denigration, isolation, and judgment. Equipped with thoughtful language and useful strategies, teachers who employ the TNR approach will create a welcoming classroom environment in which all students have opportunities to grow, improve, and excel, both academically and behaviorally'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'David T. Chiprany and Phillip Page have experienced the impact that celebration can have in a professional learning community (PLC). Fostering a culture of frequent, specific recognition in their school system has allowed collaborative teams to function at high levels and reap uncommon achievement results amid challenging times. In Celebrating in a PLC at Workª: A Leader's Guide to Building Collective Efficacy and High-Performing Collaborative Teams, Chiprany and Page demonstrate how celebrating the 'right work' of a PLC stimulates the culture shift necessary for successful PLC implementation. The authors highlight the research behind the practice of purposeful celebration and illustrate ways K-12 leaders can use it to improve teacher performance and student learning in their own schools'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Assessment remains an integral component of measuring progress toward learning goals and effectiveness of instruction. However, teachers can capitalize on assessment opportunities and reframe their strategies in ways that encourage greater student agency in learning and enable more responsiveness to identified student needs.

Guskey assembles a collection of thoughtful strategies and proposals for re-envisioning and re-engaging with assessment, both in its perceived purpose and employed practice, to enhance student learning and improve teacher instruction. With extensive research, illustrative examples and templates, and step-by-step strategies to employ in the classroom, teachers may come to understand assessment in a new way that offers significant benefits in redefining the educational experience'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Successful reading learning depends on supportive reading instruction and motivation to continue reading. Students grow more confident in their reading as they grow more competent, qualities that may be difficult to cultivate and achieve if the classroom does not address every student's individual learning needs. In Small Groups for Big Readers: Ten Questions Answered About Core Reading Instruction in the K-5 Classroom, Taylar B. Wenzel, Analexis Kennedy, Dena Slanda, and Melissa R. Carli draw upon their educational experience to promote small group reading instruction as a way for teachers to help all students achieve their learning objectives as developing readers. In addition to the Small Group Reading Implementation Quick-Guide, a tool to structure planning for small group instruction sessions, the authors provide videos demonstrating recommended activities in action; accompanying questions for continued reflection on the exercises; and simple organized steps to guide the trial, assessment, and improvement of these activities. Through small group instruction, a teacher may better identify individual student learning interests, needs, and goals. They can introduce texts that meet those needs and engage student interests. Furthermore, teachers who engage their students through small group instruction can offer focused, personalized instruction to individuals when needed that will further empower young readers in their own continued learning'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'In the daily rush and stress of life, people often lose sight of the joy in their lives. They forget to pause and make room for moments and activities that are sources of meaning, connection, and fulfillment. But joy can be cultivated and made an active part of daily life. Not only can it be cultivated; it can be sustained. In JOY! Growing Strong Throughout Your Seasons of Life as a Teacher and Leader, Timothy D. Kanold walks readers through a mindful reflection of joy's significance in day-to-day living. He draws upon cultural concepts, insightful narratives, and reflections to illustrate the discovery and conscious pursuit of joy and encourage reconnection with purpose and engagement. Using the metaphor of seasons, he crafts a framework, a joy journey, by which readers can consciously work toward long-term, sustainable joy, building resilience, gratitude, and creativity along the way'.
