The Whiteboard Jungle Denise Chase Noble

Remember back on those television shows Our Miss Brooks, Room 222, and Saved By The Bell Well, let's be honest, teaching isn't anything like that anymore. For the most part, when it comes to our new generation of kids, respectful behavior and hard work are mostly a thing of the past. What has become the new norm for many families these days will make you laugh and disturb you at the same time. Denise Chase has written a hilarious, insightful, and astonishingly candid journal chronicling one of her years as a middle school teacher. You will meet the students (good and...well not so good), the administrators (well-intentioned, not so good and well...even worse), and of course the parents (okay, hopefully, you are getting the picture). The Whiteboard Jungle should be read by teachers, prospective teachers, and perhaps most importantly by parents of students. All will enjoy the humor and come away more knowledgeable of today's educational system.
