What they're saying
about Jivin' Johnny's CLASSROOM TEACHER'S EMERGENCY LESSON PLANS...for
elementary and high schools:
|
"This book's
promotional package opens with 'Instant help for the supply teacher,
novice or overworked veteran.' Maybe so, but the people who
truly benefit from what's between these psychedelic covers are students.
#30 Storyboard:
Present a story, procedure or the evolution of something in 8
or 12 cartoon panels...
#45 Relationships: If you and your chosen partner had a hurtful
disagreement...
#58 Money: Provide at least 20 reasons why a loaf of bread which
once cost 25 cents now costs $1.25. Then explain why a computer
that 20 years ago cost $900 now costs only $300...
There are 89
other equally interesting, challenging and valuable lesson suggestions
here, ranging from advertising through interviewing skills to inventing...The
lesson suggestions here are grassroots exercises in vocational education.
They may take place exclusively in the classroom, but they're fresh
and innovative enough that, with students' imaginations in the mix,
the classroom becomes a newspaper office, an embassy, a cartographer's
drawing board.
At $21.88 (US$20.00), the book's a steal."
- Canadian Vocational Journal (Spring - Summer 2000)
"This nifty
little book, which contains more than 90 user-friendly lessons and
projects, describes hands-on activities designed to stimulate students'
thinking and creative skills...As a source of quick and easy exercises,
this handy volume provides ample variety of suggestions."
- Canadian Book Review Annual: 2000
'An invaluable
supplement for classroom curriculums and ideal for homeschooling lesson
development as well.'
- Wisconsin Bookwatch
'A "lifeline"
for an occasional/replacement teacher...especially
if sudden creativity is not your forte. Check it out: this could save
a whole lot of panic.'
- Barlow S. Patten, Principal & author of Getting Hired to
Teach in a Canadian School (http://www.thompsonbooks.com/insidetrack)
'Good news for teachers...'
- Ontario Morning, CBC Radio
'Jivin' Johnny to the rescue!'
- California Educator |
