Book Reviews of Teach Like Your Hair's on Fire: The Methods and Madness Inside Room 56

Book Review: Teach Like your Hairs on Fire Review
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased this for an assigned review in an education class. Truthfully, I loved it. He touches on a lot of fears that new teachers have going into their new careers as educators. He has a very down to earth writing prose that will connect with every content area. Much of what the author talks about can be helpful to teachers from early elementary all the way up to college level. For the price of this book and the content, you can not afford to NOT have this in your library as a teacher.
