This book simply dissects the interesting, inspiring, and sometimes lonely world of the teacher of early childhood. As the continued advancements in education across the board hint at a brighter future for our children and our society, we are troubled that some of the same practices that have prevented earlier generations of students and teachers from prospering in the classroom are still commonplace. Johns and Wallace endeavor to touch the hearts of teachers, administrators, and parents who know deep down there is still such a long way to go and who understand that the tasks assigned to teachers are sometimes overwhelming. Great classrooms have teachers who care deeply for the children entrusted to their care while great schools continually forge ahead in providing the necessary human resources, tools, training, and support in the affective domain that teachers so desperately need in order to have meaningful, fulfilling careers.

Real problems exist in society and these problems manifest themselves in the classroom. The effects of depression, anxiety, economic stresses, divorce, poverty, racism, drug abuse, and alcoholism can all be found in the school setting. In addition to teaching students in reading, writing, and arithmetic, educators need skills to better help students get along with others, solve problems, and deal with emotions. These are key aspects of social emotional learning (SEL). Social/Emotional Learning and Servant Leadership: True Stories from the Classroom shares real school experiences from varied and unique perspectives. The authors begin by investigating how to prepare future and current teachers to teach social emotional learning. They then proceed to share true stories through the lens of teachers, parents, administrators, and students. These experiences from the field provide increased understanding, hope, encouragement, and challenges to the reader.

By the New York Times–bestselling author of Moonglow: “When you read these stories, it may strike you how seldom you come across really beautiful writing” (USA Today). Cherished by readers and critics alike for such extraordinary novels as The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, and Wonder Boys, Michael Chabon is at the height of his considerable powers in this striking and bittersweet collection of short stories. An anxious young misfit does nothing to protect his best friend from the scorn of their teachers and classmates. A kleptomaniac real estate agent leads an unhappy couple on a disastrous house tour. A heartbroken grifter finds his ex-girlfriend’s grandmother to be an easy mark—and an unexpected source of redemption. Throughout these stories, Chabon’s characters, suffused with yearning but crippled by broken love, often find themselves at a crossroads—and faced with sudden insight. Michael Chabon is “Updike without the condescension,” wrote James Hynes in the Washington Post Book World, “Cheever without the self-pity, a young American Nabokov who writes with a rueful joie de vivre.” In this darkly funny, achingly delicate collection, he renders the compromises of adulthood and the vivid fantasies of childhood with clarity and warmth. This ebook features a biography of the author.

Jen is a creative, fun-loving English teacher who collects quirky cat posters. When Michael joins the department, it looks like this arrogant, ambitious hotshot might become her new boss. Jen decides to apply for the promotion, and finds herself running a school trip, struggling to control an unruly boys' class, and trying desperately to ignore the growing attraction between her and Michael. Love wasn't on the lesson plan, but if she can just get through an impromptu inspection, the job interview, and force the chauvinist Head to recognise her existence, then she can see if there might be a future for her and Michael outside of the classroom... 'Hilarious and heartwarming, this enemies to lovers romance is perfect for fans of Mhairi McFarlane and Beth O'Leary. Head back to school with witty Jen and hotshot Michael for some lessons in love. I ADORED it!' Anna Mainwaring 'I absolutely LOVED this story. Everything about it is spectacular. There’s nothing quite like an enemy to lovers sequence, and not to mention the attention to education and the shortcomings that so many educators suffer gives this an impactful layer as well. The characters are well rounded and intricate, and there are so many fantastic one liners. I believe that any readers who love a good rom-com would truly devour this story.' Reader Review This story is kisses-only with sizzling chemistry but no spice.
