Reviews
Dardi and Joe Hendershott have written a book that is for all educators to read, and perhaps reread, taking notes of thoughts or responses to the questions at the end of each chapter.
Supporting the Wounded Educator is a valuable resource to help work though the pressures of being an educator and help regain some of that feeling of "Hey world! Here I am! I am your teacher and I love teaching!"
