Description

In this book, 42 teachers recount the ways they went beyond the call of duty to make a difference in the lives of their students. A first-grade teacher describes how she was able to undergo radiation and chemotherapy without missing a day of school because her students gave her energy and courage. A drama teacher in Houston explains that she makes casting decisions knowing that sometimes the role may be better for the student than the student is for the role. In Fort Wayne, Indiana, a teacher recalls how he used a student’s suicide as an opportunity for other students to reflect and ultimately succeed. An extensive parent and teacher resource guide is included and a portion of the profits will be donated to charities listed in the book. - from Amzon
