The Effective Teacher (Video Series)
by Harry and Rosemary Wong
Partner this video series with the book, The First Days of School, and you will have the most effective staff development program possible.
A Superintendent said that hearing Harry Wong should be a state certification requirement for all teachers. With a perfect setting in a performing arts center, an inservice presentation has been created that redefines what the discriminating educator has always wanted. A five-hour inservice workshop has been packaged into eight small parts so that a teacher who needs help can look at needed parts or a staff developer or administrator can use each part over a period of time. An accompanying binder contains the Facilitator’s Handbook with a 108 page transcript to help you find information quickly and 127 pages of blackline masters of all the graphics used in the production.
There is no need to wait to hear the most sought after speaker in education. This production, honored by the Telly Awards as the best education video series in the past twenty years, captures the warmth, humor, and enthusiasm of Harry Wong. The Effective Teacher video series correlates with The First Days of School and will be your best staff development investment.
