Hi everyone,
Last week Stephan Black mentioned that, "let me express my opinion that TIPSters who've written books should not be shy about promoting them on this list. I think most of us would be intererested to hear of them. "
And in Christopher Green's words, "Allow me to self-promote."
I thought I sent a message last week, but somehow it lost its way..
I recently was hired by www.TeachingPoint.net to produce two books for the high school market. These books contain daily lesson plans (!), a pacing guide for every chapter, assignments, rubrics, an activity book (over 250 pages!) with original project ideas, powerpoints and class notes, two assessments for every chapter, and answers for every graphic organizer, laboratory, and experiment etc. aligned with the National Standards and state standards, for both a one semester course in Psychology and for a full year Advanced Psychology class.
As a retiring teacher, I found the process to be really very interesting and somewhat cathartic....
