Story
The Writing Revolution (TWR) provides a clear method of instruction that you can use no matter what subject or grade level you teach. The model, also known as The Hochman Method, has demonstrated, over and over, that it can turn weak writers into strong communicators by focusing on specific techniques that match their needs and by providing them with targeted feedback. Insurmountable as the challenges faced by many students may seem, TWR can make a dramatic difference.

Story
A neurodivergent's guide to embracing your true self and finding your happily ever after. Growing up, Chloé Hayden felt like she'd crash-landed on an alien planet where nothing made sense. Eye contact? Small talk? And why are you people so touch-oriented? She moved between 10 schools in 8 years, struggling to become a person she believed society would accept, and was eventually diagnosed with autism and ADHD. When a life-changing group of allies showed her that different did not mean less, she learned to celebrate her true voice and find her happily ever after.

Publisher's Summary
This book begins with a bold idea. Learning should be epic. Definition of epic:
1. A story or narrative centered around a hero
2. Spectacular; impressive; memorable
If learning is not memorable, should it even be considered learning? For too long, traditional education has used outdated practices to deliver complex and well-intended content to students with very little hope of that subject matter being retained. It often looks like this:
- Lectures are given
- Students write the information down
- Students take a test on that information
- Information is discarded from the brain
- Repeat
- How to increase student engagement
- How to plan and execute an effective approach to project-based learning
- Specific strategies for leading engaged students
- Outlines and tools to plan and manage projects
- Methods to increase academic performance in students

Inspiring
I loved this book. After being in lockdown and having to conduct home learning, this was the reigniting that I needed. I will be sharing the know of this book with so many fellow teachers. As part of our summer break I will be asking my team to read it. Thank you for sharing your story.
