description

Anyone who has recently stepped into a middle years’ classroom knows all too well the truth of this portrait—the lived experience of learners in our schools today. Early adolescents are truly a unique group of learners, like none other a teacher might experience—a group that will at one moment test a teacher’s mettle and the very next bring so much elation and reward that a teacher might even question how they could ever think of working with another age group. This is the appeal and the true curiosity behind the early adolescent learner and is the heart of what we will present to you in this book.
