This teaching tool is a complete textbook, designed to accomplish several purposes. Being a practical help and a real-world teacher’s aid is by far the grandest. Teachers are often left in academic circumstances that challenge them to be individually creative. Whereas the typical teacher does indeed possess great creative powers as well as the zealous enthusiasm to meet any and virtually every challenge, time restrictions often prove a foe most unconquerable. Speaking as a teacher of more than two and a half decades (as of this writing), I’ve become fully aware of what’s needed in my personal classroom to get the most production out of my students and to give them the greatest opportunity to learn. In times past, I often found myself wishing for tools that made that job easier for me and for them. That is what this text is designed to accomplish – its goal is to provide teachers with tools and tactics that make teaching and learning easier.
