Uncommon Sense for New Teachers: A Good Beginning is Half the Work is a uniquely written resource for any preservice or new teacher moving into the profession of education. Noted by its author as the book to read, before deciding what other books to read, it offers deft perspective on the pressing issues weighing heavily on the minds and hearts of new teachers, including what teachers don't learn before they start, but should. Written in short-read sections in each chapter--relevant units to be read in any order--the readings serve as the whisper in one's head about what one might think, and how to act uncommonly when the next situation arises each day. This book supercharges new teachers, as they apply what they discover in their own way, in any grade, content area, or community.
