These thoughtful lessons are ready to be implemented immediately in the classroom.” – Denise N. Morgan, Ph.D., Kent State University “This book was created for teachers by teachers. It is filled with creative and engaging strategies, each having a step-by-step guide for implementation to promote student learning. Many of the strategies designed for specific content instruction can be modified for use across the curriculum. It is a refreshing compilation of instructional approaches and a valuable resource for both novice and veteran teachers.” – Maria G. Dove, Ed.D., Molloy College “The book is not only a useful teaching manual for teachers in the USA, but also a helpful instructional guide for teachers from other cultures. Particularly for the last section on ESL/EFL learners, it provides teachers in the field with inspirational activities.” – Haihua Wang, Ph.D., Dalian Maritime University.
