Classroom Wisdom that Works: Two Powerful Books for Teachers by a Teacher

Inspire your Students, Engage your Class, Transform your Teaching!

Finally, a fellow classroom teacher details how every teacher can develop their students’ cooperation, confidence, creativity, and capabilities. Since all children require growth in these fundamental areas, these books explain how all four aspects of learning are equally important and inextricably intertwined.

Learn how every teacher can all at once capture their students’ hearts, hopes, minds, and manners through the use of positive motivation and intentional inspiration.

Through this whole-child approach, teachers attend to their student’s social, emotional, soulful, and academic needs. And because one aspect does not take precedence over another, kids feel validated, fulfilled, and emboldened to achieve their best.

By employing such a comprehensive, empowering teaching philosophy and methodology, firm, fair, fascinating facilitators win their students over and maximize each child’s potential.

Cultivate a classroom filled with willingness, wisdom, wonder, warmth, and worth!

Once teachers honor the impact that a student’s self-control, self-confidence, and self-expression has upon their self-efficacy and academic accomplishment, they see kids thrive in ways they (and their students’ parents) may have only dreamed possible. Yet such positivity and productivity are indeed attainable and through these books have been made entirely practical for teachers in any situation and at any grade level.
