    This was an excellent resource. I am not even a teacher yet, but I have often spent time in the bookstore reading over the information. It has provided helpful inspiration in some of my education classes when we have to explain how we would meet certain ADEPT standards. This book also has some great ideas about how to arrange the classroom and relate to your students. It is way more than an average checklist with plenty of information in a quickly read format.

    Because I review it every year before I walk into my classroom. I share it with my co-workers. My goal every year is to take 2 things and use them in my classroom. If it works hey great, if not, I will try something else.
