Abstract

This book is designed specifically to create a more successful classroom climate in which all students are empowered to be better thinkers. Everything in this book was forged and tested in the classroom. Teachers are invited to reflect on how the ideas in this book can complement what they do in the classroom, curriculum meetings and staff meetings. There is also a bonus section in which the author has supplied a large range of posters for the classroom.
