Customer Rating: Summary: the essential 55 Workbook: Everything you need to help your child succeed in school Comment: It's a nice workbook and goes really well with the book. Great ideas to go along with as well. Customer Rating: Summary: Ron Clark redefines the word hero!!! Comment: Ron Clark is everything a teacher today needs to be, and more!!! Choosing to take the more difficult path and work in a tough, urban district he made magic happen with his students. My favorite part about Clark and this book is that it reminds us teachers that there are three components to learning: knowledge, skills, and values. Too often teachers become overwhelmed with preparing their students for the state exams at the end of the year that they forget the key ingredient of classroom success - good citizenship. As teachers, it is not our job to simply fill our students' minds with as much information as possible. It is our job to prepare them for the next stage of life, both academically and emotionally.
---Michael James D'Amato, author of "The Classroom" Customer Rating: Summary: out dated in my opinion Comment: While this book has some good topics to be discussed with kids, it is more about "how to get the teacher to like you" and concentrates on rules that are outdated and a bit unrealistic. I'm pretty disappointed.
