Walk in My Classroom - James Patterson

\nThe son of a teacher himself, James Patterson's enlightening look inside today's classrooms is required reading for everyone who wants a brighter future for our kids. \n \n In classrooms across the country, teachers demonstrate resilience and ingenuity every day. They dedicate their lives to improving those of future generations while also facing unprecedented challenges--from book banning and political interference to limited funding and gun violence. \nIn stories that are sometimes emotional, sometimes eye-opening, and always deeply honest, America's teachers share lessons we all need to learn: \n \n- There are so many misconceptions about education right now. \n- Teaching isn't about being right or wrong, it's about listening and considering. \n- There's always stuff going on well before the kids show up. \n- There's tired and then there's teacher tired. \n- If it could be just us and our kids, it would be the best job in the world.
