For beginners!

Education is a social process and represents present life. There are many actionable ways this belief could show itself in the classroom. In your early years in the classroom, capitalizing on the knowledge of fellow teachers and setting up systems for all tasks—large and small—will be extremely helpful. Very informative.

Just what I needed.

Regardless of your grade or content area, there are plenty of rules to keep in mind for having a successful first year. Keith Porter made it easy for me. I got many interesting things to do in the first year.
