Any educator serving students of poverty must have this book!" -- Anthony Muhammad , author and educational consultant " The Handbook for Poor Students, Rich Teaching is set up to easily chunk staff learning for professional development, providing countless opportunities for immediate implementation while also continuing to learn. It is stacked with practical tools and opportunities for reflection on current and future practices. I am ready to buy a copy for each of my staff members!" -- Jacqueline Wyant , principal, Marshalltown High School, Iowa " The Handbook for Poor Students, Rich Teaching is the perfect companion book to Poor Students, Rich Teaching . It includes research-based instructional practices that are doable, meaningful, and measurable. It offers many examples to illustrate self-reflective thinking and goal-setting, as well as creative ideas to use with students to inspire and engage them in shaping their own mindsets. It is also an excellent tool to use with colleagues as you collaborate to better understand what is necessary to create empathic classrooms for those students who most need our love and support." -- Kathleen Kryza , international educational consultant, coach, and author About the Author Eric Jensen, PhD, is a former teacher and the author of more than 28 books.
