I will admit that I didn't read the book in its entirety - I read the first chapter in full, and then after that, I would read a page, then skip forward 30 - 40 pages and read another page. Occasionally, I would read through a whole section, and then start skipping again. So you can take all that I say below with a grain of salt. :-) My problem is, I am not a fan of the whole "student-centered learning" trend, and from what I've read about "brain-based research," I'm not a fan of it either.

This book is full of references to both (as is most current education literature, to be honest. It's a fad making the rounds). That is the reason for the two-star docking on the rating. But, on the other hand, there was a lot of great info in here about organization, getting ready for school to start, dealing with problem children (and their parents!), etc. I think there was enough good information in here to make it worthwhile to buy and have to refer back to, even with the student-centered learning nonsense in it. And for those of you who are into student-centered learning and brain-based research, then you'll really love this book, so be sure to buy it. :-)
