101 Stunts for Principals to Inspire Student Achievement



February 2005 | 168 pages | Corwin
A fun and functional guide for school leaders who want to encourage and inspire student achievement, this book offers 101 "stunts" to copy, accompanied by case studies that will make the stunts come to life.

Frank Sennett guides the teacher through choosing a stunt, involving the whole school in the process, and finally, carrying out the stunt successfully. He scores each "stunt" in a variety of ways so that teachers can easily see what fits in with what they want their students to achieve. In addition, he ties "stunts" to specific discipline areas.

This book is a great reference and a kick-start for teachers looking for creative ways to be a part of the achievement process.
