This is a wonderful class that reminds us why we are teaching and puts READING first. I highly recommend no matter what grade you are teaching. Pass the book onto others, but especially administrators!

Jeremiah creates book study courses that are valuable to you as an educator. He offers feedback to individuals and the entire class that will allow you to implement what you need for your students. His courses are created with teacher in mind. You can complete this class while teaching, and it won't take time out of your teaching duties. I highly recommend any of his course, and I have taken quite a few. The books he chooses are very relevant to what is needed immediately in the classroom.
