Affirm promising practices; 4. Communicate feedback; and 5. Help teachers become leaders and learners. Throughout this practical guide, readers will find Reflective questions Activities Indicators of success Examples of leaders coaching teachers to excellence Wisdom from the field This book provides new and veteran leaders with a practical approach and easily adoptable ideas for helping their schools realize their full potential.
