Robert Rose, Ph.D., a longtime member of the Rialto Education Association, has written several books to help veteran teachers "find the courage to be themselves" and, at the same time, motivate prospective teachers to join what he calls "the most exciting and rewarding profession."
Just as touching other people can free them to be happier, more complete human beings, Rose hopes that reading They Touched My Life will inspire teachers and parents to reach out to children in ways that will free them to learn.
In Becoming a More Creative Teacher, he presents a clearly delineated structure for becoming an effective, creative teacher.
In the ABC's of Elementary Education: A Practical Guide, he uses anecdotes to explain the structure he believes works in the classroom and the underlying theories.
Other titles include Our Extraordinary Year in Dad's Class; Teacher Under a Microscope; Fear, Failure, Flexibility in Four Classrooms; and Racism 70's Style.
The books may be ordered in hardcover ($25) or softcover ($16) or downloaded in eBook format ($8) from the publisher's Web site [www.xlibris.com].
