Description: Aptly titled, and with an honest, encouraging voice that reflects diverse viewpoints, this book offers sound, easy-to-follow advice on managing time, avoiding or coping with stress, and handling the wide range of duties, responsibilities, and concerns every K-12 teacher faces. The book is jam-packed with helpful hints on subjects ranging from wardrobe choice and record-keeping to where to safely store everyone's "stuff." The text is anecdotal, rather than theoretical, and addresses a myriadof on-the-job topics not usually covered in education classes. Such asliability and safety issues, technology integration, professionalism, parent communications, group behavior management-even how to write tests to foil guessers, how to answer students' questions that are too personal, and how to avoid being, overwhelmed by it all.
