But, teachers are busy. Really busy. Exhaustingly busy- we don't want this book to be one more thing that consumes your spare time. It is important to us that each chapter can be read independent of one another, in any particular order, and in short bursts, so if you need some quick tips on the fly, we want you to be able to find what you need and save the rest for another spare moment. The chapters are arranged chronologically to take you through the school year, but it doesn't need to be read that way. You get to read what will help in the moment. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eTable of Contents
