If you're feeling frustrated with the ineffectiveness of the current educational system, dissatisfied with the performance of students in the classroom, and discouraged by the lack of support from the community and parents...Loving Education is the book for you. Get Students To Love Learning Your students don't understand why they are in your classroom. They resent being asked to trade their precious time for an education that doesn't seem worth the effort to them. They don't trust authority figures because they've seen too many adults abuse their authority. Loving Education will teach you the steps you need to take to gain their trust, help them see the value of their education, and get them excited about learning. Restore Your Own Love of Educating You want to feel empowered to do your best work in the classroom. You want to be proud of the students you're producing with your efforts. You want to be appreciated and recognized by parents and the community. Loving Education will provide you simple strategies to regain control over your classroom, provide the foundation your students need to succeed, and gain the support of parents and the community. Make Changes No Matter Where You Are The reality is that while geography, income levels, and school districts may change, people remain the same. You don't have to make big changes to see big results. You can start right now, in your own classroom, and see big changes before the year ends. Loving Education will show you how. Change Your Classroom, Change Everything. Anton Anthony is living proof that change begins one classroom at a time, and it all starts with love. As a teacher, discipline coordinator, assistant principal and principal, regardless of position, Anton Anthony has seen how love changes classrooms, buildings, and communities. |
