Teachers with the Magic

M. Scott Norton

This book centers on the fact that needed improvements in our schools will not occur unless education is able to attract and retain great teachers in the school's classrooms. Teachers with The Magic is directed to administrative leaders as well as those individuals that are seeking ways to become better teachers. Great teachers themselves will be inspired by the book's discussion of what great teachers do the classroom to engage students in learning.
