The Ron Clark Story

                           “The Essential 55” by Ron Clark

 

This DVD is a great true life story of how a teacher changed his students into high achievers. Ron Clark received the 2001 Disney Teacher of the Year Award for concrete work in getting the best out of his students from North Carolina to Harlem, NY.  There are not enough superlatives to adequately describe how much I love his book. EVERY TEACHER, EVERY ADMINISTRATOR, EVERY COUNSELOR SHOULD READ THIS SHORT BOOK.  Of course, not only do the students change, but the teachers will have to change also. Patience, consistency, and persistence always pay off.

“The Teacher’s Guide to Classroom `Ukulele” by J. Chalmers Doane

This is an invaluable guide from a real-life ukulele classroom. If you want to start an `ukulele program in your school or community, you need to sit down, give this a read. This guide is worth its weight in gold.
