As an experienced classroom teacher, Judy knows the impact of active learning. The activities in this book are extremely teacher friendly with little or no preparation necessary. The lessons are interactive so kids enjoy the up tempo nature of the activities. This is a book that I will use with my entire staff! Matt Fore, Principal Wall Elementary/Wall, TX (Exemplary Campus 3 years running!) I attended one of Mrs. Knight's workshops and it was fun and exciting. With her activities everyone is participating and learning at the same time! Hanna Flores, 5th Grade Student Austin Elementary School/San Angelo, TX Differentiated instruction is the key to the educational mind of at-risk students. The ideas presented in this book work well with ALL students, but especially for the at-risk students. It brings them into learning. Deborah Goforth At-Risk Coordinator/Central Freshman Center Author: Scars of Love, Tears of Hope Judy was literally my salvation during my first year of teaching. She has been and remains my primary source of information when I am seeking new and inspiring ideas for delivery of lessons. I am eager to get my autographed copy of her book, so that I can finally have all of her interactive learning strategies in black and white! Stacey Gallegos 5th Grade Teacher San Felipe-Del Rio CISD Mrs. Knight has used many of the activities included in her book in her lively, educational workshops. Teachers and students love her! She knows that an engaged student is an engaged mind. What a wonderful resource for educators to help facilitate active learning!
