Lights, Cameras, TEACH!

By Kevin Butler

Just like an action packed movie, a successful classroom needs a good director. In Lights, Cameras, Teach I will be sharing my ideas and experiences about the importance of keeping kids engaged in active learning and ways to make the classroom a place students want to be. Special interviews with fellow educators, former students, former parents, and even a few Hollywood celebrity guests will reflect their own experiences in school.
