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 celebrate students’ writing is from Ray Salazar. I’m adding it to The Best Posts On Writing Instruction.

How to Teach an Inductive Learning Lesson is by Jennifer Gonzalez. As regular readers of my blog and books know, I’m a big fan of teaching inductively (in fact, you’ll find over one hundred posts that talk about it). One of these days, I’ll create a “Best” list on the topic.

The Ultimate Guide to Starting a Teaching Job in the Middle of the School Year is by Jennifer Gonzalez. I’m adding it to The Best Advice For New Teachers.
