Barak Rosenshine wrote an article in 2012 for the International Academy of Education that set out a series of 10 simple, research-based principles of instruction that make for more effective teaching. Tom Sherrington read that article, and he's been talking about it ever since. As a principal, coach, and educational consultant in schools across the UK, Sherrington has been adapting the Principles of instruction to classroom use for years. There are no gimmicks, fads, or expensive training days; just a set of ideas that are rooted so authentically in classroom experience they feel common sense. Any teacher can make their instruction highly effective by incorporating these principles deliberately and consistently in their classroom. Sherrington explains how to do exactly that, elaborating and building on Rosenshine's premise with classroom examples, actionable strategies, and tested methods of implementation developed from real classroom experience.
