Customer Reviews

Excellent resource
This is a book that all new teachers should read. It especially helped me to be better prepared for dealing with the other teachers with whom I would have to work. I was just a student teacher when I ordered it, but my school district gives it out to all new teachers that they hire.

Harry Wong's The First Day of School
The BEST book for first year teachers and those in final semesters prior to becoming a teacher. I use parts of this book in my college class to inspire students to reach for their best in all aspects of their lives, but particularly in the classroom.

You Can't Go Wrong with Wong!
Statistics around the nation report that 30-50% of our new teachers are leaving the profession within their first five years! I firmly believe that if many of these teachers had taken the time to read and use this book by Harry Wong they'd still be teaching. I have taught for 23 years and have had the opportunity to work with many new teachers in Michigan during this time. The number one key to success in teaching comes down to classroom management. You can't teach if you can't manage your students. Harry Wong's "The First Days of School" provides every teacher -- especially new teachers -- the tools they need to manage and become leaders in the classroom setting. He is the master of teaching teachers how to effectively use procedures in their classrooms that will provide them with more time to teach, less frustrations to deal with, and allow students to learn in a positive, safe learning environment. This is a must read and should be on every new teachers' desk before the first day of school!
