THE TRAINING PACkAGE YOU NEED TO ENSURE NEW-TEACHER SUCCESS IN GRADES 5-12

“With this one resource, Julia Thompson addresses the needs of all beginning teachers. Elementary, middle, and high school teachers—both new and experienced—can find beneficial information on every page. Not only are

there tips on how to manage the ‘science’ of education—seating charts, lesson plans, daily routines—but also on how to master the ‘art’ of this profession with sections devoted to classroom management, motivation, profes-sional expertise, and learning how to be part of a team of professionals. Beginning teachers need this valuable

resource. Certainly, in my early years of teaching, I could have benefited immensely from having this book on my desk.”—Pam Leigh, English teacher, Spotswood High School, VA

Is this set a com-prehensive yet cost-efficient way to train beginning teachers?Yes! With 90+ minutes of video instruction and a wealth of accom-panying training materials, staff developers can help their new educators to create a positive, dynamic, and organized classroom while they become skilled and col-laborative members of the school team.

Thompson’s reassuring and practi-cal approach to teaching and class-room management—honed over 25 years in the classroom—has proven effective for beginning educators.

How can I train new teachers to create a positive and dynamic learning environment?This 2-DVD training package covers all the basic principles of effective teaching and classroom manage-ment, as well as the latest issues facing teachers, such as:

• Working in today’s atmosphere of high-stakes testing

• Helping struggling readers

• Teaching English language learners

• Helping at-risk students

• Meeting professional development requirements

What can I expect to find in the package?The two DVDs will give professional development trainers and their new teachers access to a wide variety of tested strategies and tools. New teachers will learn how to:

• Work collaboratively with colleagues, administrators, and parents

• Design lessons that engage students and foster lasting comprehension

• Use proactive strategies to minimize misbehavior and encourage self-discipline

• Make the most efficient use of class time and space

Julia G. Thompson, a best-selling author, has been a public school educator for more than 25 years, teaching students from reluctant seventh graders to gifted college students. Thompson currently teaches English in Fairfax County, VA, and she is an active consultant and teacher trainer. Visit Julia at www.juliagthompson.com for her advice blog, tips for teachers, and self-study/training guides for her books.
