Recenzii

"School districts are continuing to embed more site-based coaches rather than disconnected ‘drive by’ professional development. Often these site-based coaches are former teachers at the school site who transition into the new role of ‘coach’ without formal professional development/support in this new role. Many of these coaches are looking for support in their new roles, which this book provides!"
Karina Nevers, Educational Consultant, Nevada
"This book supports the complex role of the literacy coach. It will guide new literacy coaches and revitalize veteran coaches to successfully realize their roles as change agents, relationship builders, and data analysts."
- Deborah Hayes Youcis, Literacy Coach, Bucksport Middle School, Bucksport, Maine
"The passion and experience Diana and Betsy Sisson bring to The Literacy Coaching Handbook is evident. You'll learn about the evolution of coaching models, the roles coaches play in a school setting with a variety of teachers, and how to use data analysis to increase student achievement. Their reflections on how to sustain ongoing collaboration and change is well worth a read!"
Pia Hansen, Professional Development Specialist and Author of The Mathematics Coaching Handbook.
