Classroom Instruction Resources Of The Week

Each week, I publish a post containing three or four particularly useful resources on classroom instruction, and you can see them all here.

Here are this week’s picks:

How to Close Read the Language of Film is from Middleweb. I’m adding it to The Best Resources On “Close Reading.”

Maurice J. Elias has written a very useful article titled Social-emotional skills can boost Common Core implementation for Phi Delta Kappan. Unfortunately, if you’re not a subscriber, it costs $5, which I thought was worth paying. I’m adding it to The Best Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Resources.

Here’s some good teaching advice:
