Teach Like Your Hair's on Fire
The Methods and Madness Inside Room 56
Rafe Esquith
Transform the education system and inspire today's youth with the techniques from an acclaimed educator who runs an exceptional classroom known as Room 56. Rafe Esquith's program has helped first-generation immigrants living in poverty and speaking English as a second language play Vivaldi, perform Shakespeare, score in the top 1 percent on standardized tests, and attend Ivy League universities. His two mottoes, "Be Nice, Work Hard" and "There Are No Shortcuts," have resulted in students voluntarily coming to school early and leaving late, learning to handle money responsibly, tackling algebra, and traveling the country to study history. Teach Like Your Hair's on Fire! is an inspiring read for parents, teachers, and anyone who cares about the future success of our nation's children.
