While
is a helping guidebook designed to fill a desperate need for substitute teachers in school districts all over America, the sound advice inside this work should also help new school teachers, parents, grandparents, homeschoolers, Scout Leaders, Sunday School teachers, and anyone wishing to deal intelligently with school-age children.
A second purpose of this book is to alert and educate anyone who wants to earn good/great money without giving up their life.
In memoir form, Scream follows the career path of a person unprepared for teaching above the kindergarten level. You will experience the stress, incompetence, joys, successes, and despairs of someone who had to teach since she spent their two sons' college fund on a house with a swimming pool.
The Appendix provide concrete ideas for art, music, games, seatwork, rewards, and corrections. An emphasis is devoted to a level-by-level exploration of “What to do when you don't know what to do."
In spite of the title, the author finds better ways to deal with her students in lieu of screaming. She discovers "diffusion" and develops many techniques which she shares in detail.
