A tao of teaching, August 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Peaceable Classroom (Paperback)
Politicians and Superintendents should find this book in their required reading list this year. Principals who are humanitarians will have another arrow in their quiver for the view of learning over state evaluation. Teachers who love kids and not tests will love the views put forth in this book. Written as an application towards writing and literature, I am looking forwad to using the ideas to teach a course called LIFE - within the four walls of my music room.

An Impact Far Beyond The Literal Subject, April 8, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Peaceable Classroom (Paperback)
How rare it is to find a work with such impact written with economy of language and genuine, honest sense of humor. This book should be required for students of teaching (as it is in some courses at the University of Chicago) and non-teachers alike.
