"This is a practical and highly engaging book about how to be a
highly engaging teacher. In today’s world of on-demand
entertainment and fast-paced action, the strategies in this book
help teachers offer what students need in order to learn."
*Renee Peoples, Fourth-Grade Teacher and Swain County Math
Coach*
"This book provides a variety of new approaches, strategies,
techniques, concepts, and ideas that teachers can implement in
their classroom to increase the educational success of their
students."
*Beth Wile, Sixth-Grade Science Teacher*
"My daughter applied the techniques for learning found in Rich
Allen’s Green Light Classrooms in a second grade class and was
amazed how using mystery in science excited her students. I saw the
same excitement in adults learning safety concepts; the class was
energized! Even after returning from a break, the class was still
discussing what they learned and I knew I’d found a powerful method
for teaching. I’ll continue to use this valuable resource for my
own classes and my daughter will as well!"
*Dave Barber, MS, CIH*
