This book is designed for all K-12 educators and teacher preparation faculty. Reading this book is like being in the room with 30 teacher mentors from different grade-levels and school settings who are sharing strategies for: (1) building and maintaining a positive classroom climate; (2) planning; (3) instruction; and (4) professional development. Discover step-by-step breakdowns of how to implement each strategy as well as professional reflections from contributors representing two different grade-levels and a range of suburban and urban settings from all over the globe.
Education students and novice teachers will learn from the in-depth descriptions of how to implement each strategy. Veteran teachers will be inspired by contributing teachers’ professional reflection regarding why and how they utilize each strategy.
Readers in ALL school contexts will benefit from narrative descriptions of each strategy in action, which bring to life the ways that the strategies have made an impact on student learning and teacher development. The adaptations modeled throughout the book, based on students’ and schools’ assets and needs, help readers to think about how to make each strategy a good fit for their unique classroom. If you are looking for practical ideas from the field, look no further - this is a book designed to build your teaching toolbox with strategies that you will use for years to come.

Now, more than ever, educators need practical and actionable strategies that they can use in their classrooms. While teaching is incredibly complex, by learning with colleagues and applying the research, all educators can improve their practice and help all children achieve new heights in learning and outcomes. In this new book, the authors have applied their own expertise and that of researchers and practitioners in such a way that all educators can benefit. You’ll find their strategies to be clear, applicable, and exactly what our educators need right now in order to ensure that all schools are great places for both students and adults to thrive.

This isn’t just a ‘how-to-book,’ it is a ‘this is how I have done it’ book that offers teacher-developed, research-backed, easy-to-adapt practices that will be valuable to teachers who are new to the field and to all teachers striving to meet the needs of each student. Written with respect for teachers and an appreciation of the unique qualities of each classroom, Adaptable Teaching: 30 Practical Strategies for All School Contexts will build the toolbox of individual teachers and provide opportunities for rich professional discussion and collaboration. I cannot wait to dig into this book and series with my colleagues.
