I believed in having fun, playing games, moving around, dancing, and enjoying the education experience [for the students and myself]. I think my classroom was dubbed ‘The Noisy Classroom’ because of it. I’ve found students can work, they can learn, they can be successful… and they can do so in a nontraditional way.”Excellent diversity pick, full of humor and positive SEL character traits.Book guide will be available and targeted for both educators and parents.Lexile 640L
