Reviews


Toatlly Satisfied!1
I am scheduled to interview for an Instructional Coach position. However, this book is a guide for ANYONE that will work/assist with a school curriculum. It goes through the legal stuff and state mandated requirements concerning curriculum. Additionally, the book leads the leader on how to align the curriculum on a school level (public/charter/private). I would recommend this book for novices as well as 'experts'. It helps to provide a refresher for those experienced with aligning State standards and building curriculum/pacing guides.

It's an easy read and you can start in the area where you have the most concern. Bring a highliter b/c you'll really need it!

Curriculum leaders
This was a good book. The topics were very helpful and covered things as an administrator you will need to know. I have also used this book in regular classroom review.

The Principal as Curriculum Leader ?
Good resource - explains that principals don't often know that they should be a curriculum leader. One of their jobs is to keep abreast on curriculum - changes, effective teaching strategies, etc. It has been my experience as a teacher that many principals have no idea about what is being taught in the classroom. Some have no clue on teaching strategies to help best meet the standards.
