The Strategic Teacher Selecting the Right Research-Based Strategy for Every Lesson

The Strategic Teacher offers a repertoire of strategies designed and proven to meet today's high standards and reach diverse learners. Twenty reliable, flexible strategies (along with dozens of variations) are organized into these groups of instruction: * mastery style to emphasize the development of student memory; * understanding style to expand students' capacities to reason and explain; * self-expressive style to stimulate and nourish students' imaginations and creativity; * interpersonal style to help students find meaning in the relationships they forge as partners and team members, united in the act of learning; and * four-style strategies that integrate all four styles.
