The English Teacher's Companion 4th Ed by Jim Burke, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

A new companion for every English teacher “Why have I written an entirely new English Teacher’s Companion? Because to offer you anything less would suggest I had not grown, changed, or evolved these past fifteen years. I am not the same teacher I was when I wrote the first edition." –Jim Burke The fourth edition of English Teacher’s Companion is 100 percent new. Jim Burke has rewritten it to model methods for reaching a new generation of students–when all the ground rules for teaching are changing. A teacher’s teacher and a recognized leader in English/language arts education, Jim understands the need for instructional methods that connect the why of teaching to the how. “This edition makes the research behind my practice more explicit," he writes. “It is also anchored in the Common Core State Standards, because I am still teaching every day–so these standards are my standards too." Weaving in ideas for working with ELLs, struggling readers, and technology, English Teacher’s Companion, Fourth Edition: | The English Teacher's Companion 4th Ed by Jim Burke, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
