Ready to Succeed in the Classroom

Ω

Ready to Succeed in the Classroom brings forward the voices of experienced classroom teachers. In the fall of 2009, a team from the Center for the Future of Teaching and Learning convened six discussion groups to explore how teachers work with children and youth in the foster care system in the classroom. These discussions produced ideas, advice, strategies, and “wish lists” that went far beyond the classroom. Specific classroom strategies and tips are included in the summary report for teachers. Ideas about how schools, districts, and communities can better meet the needs of these children and youth are summarized in discussion cards specific to each respective group. Each document stands alone or can be read with others.
