Description

What do you do when you don't know what to do?While Teaching School is a Scream! is a helping guidebook designed to fill a desperate need for substitute teachers in school districts all over America, the sound advice inside this work should also help new school teachers,  parents, grandparents, homeschoolers, Scout Leaders, Sunday School teachers, and anyone wishing to deal intelligently with school-age children.      A second purpose of this book is to alert and educate anyone who wants to earn good/great money without giving up their life.      In memoir form, Scream follows the career path of a person unprepared for teaching above the kindergarten level.  You will experience the stress, incompetence, joys, successes, and despairs of someone who had to teach since she spent their two sons' college fund on a house with a swimming pool.      The Appendix provide concrete ideas for art, music, games, seatwork, rewards, and corrections.

An emphasis is devoted to a level-by-level exploration of "What to do when you don't know what to do."     In spite of the title, the author finds better ways to deal with her students in lieu of screaming.  She discovers "diffusion" and develops many techniques which she shares in detail.      Every school district should have copies of Teaching School is a Scream! readily available for teachers and subs. This gave me a "shot in the arm" of enthusiasm and empowerment.

It also brought back a lot of wonderful memories. Full of ideas, I can hardly wait to implement them. ~ Estela Ohashi, Substitute Teacher since 1996     This engaging book is filled with Judy Woods-Knight's wisdom born of experience and practical ideas coupled with emphases on the importance of humor and above all, a genuine desire to serve young minds in need of the best any teacher can deliver. ~ Gail C.
