Hi Shelley, my name is Leon Avrech, San Jose CA. I am retired 8th grade U.S. History teacher, vice principal, principal, and mentor teacher. I am writing you because you are in middle school and I have a passion for middle school. I recently had a book published,"Think You Can Teach? A Survival Guide For New Middle School Teachers". It is an enormous help to new and soon to be new teachers. It is important that new middle school teachers be successful. The book is available from Amazon or signed copy from me: Classroom. P.O.BOX 36036 San Jose, CA 95158 Please tell new teachers and your human resources person. The book is inexpensive and loads of helpful information from first day of orientation to end of year evaluation. Available to:
