(Show)
"Adrienne Mack-Kirschner, a National Board Certified teacher, has created a no-nonsense guide to good teaching that shows you how curriculum, organization, and mindfulness can combine to help make your classroom a place where kids go to learn and achieve, not just collect a grade." "Mack-Kirschner includes numerous reproducibles - checklists, forms, evaluations, and self-evaluations - that help you clearly establish goals and expectations, and help your students meet them."--Jacket.
