Tactile learners, spatial thinkers, and logical minds alike will become eager students as the strategies in this handbook are implemented.
"When teachers in all schools integrate Tate′s 20 instructional strategies into classroom instruction, school will become a place where all children can experience success regardless of their learning style" -- Linda Aikens-Young, Principal
"The book is highly readable with practical applications that will appeal to all educators, especially those interested in current brain research and differentiation." -- Marilee Sprenger
"The book′s contribution to the field is not that the strategies presented are new, but that they are all found in one book and with ideas across grade levels. It is done concisely and with enough information to help even the novice." -- Donna Walker Tileston, President
"Tate has excellent ideas to get students motivated to learn—and they work! The tactics are fun, simple, and make teaching much easier. I′m anxious to use even more of these strategies with my freshmen and sophomores."
-- Kayce Haenisch, High School English Teacher
