Good ideas and a great gift by Moving Target (IL) 4 Stars
November 18, 2009
I find the ideas in the book helpful... I am using some of them now and ready to re-read the book to use more. This is a good gift for veteran or new teachers, too.

I got this book on one of the estimated ship dates and it looked like it had never been used which I almost expected since I had been told that it was in like new condition. Also, the CD in the book was still in the sealed envelope so had obviously never been used.

Wong is wrong for Middle or High School but Okay for Elementary... by Meredith Andrew (Boondocks, Georgia, USA) 3 Stars
October 10, 2009
A bit too corny for Middle and High School but Elementary teachers may find it useful.

took a while by M. Burka (TN) 4 Stars

It took a few more days to arrive than I had expected, maybe because I was anxious. The book had a few marks in it, but it's OK. Wong is one of the best. The CD is very inspirational.
