Mentoring Programs for New Teachers
Foreword by Charlotte Danielson All the information administrators and teacher leaders need to get started on the right mentoring model! The value of mentoring programs for teacher training and retention is widely recognized . . . but which program should you choose for your school or LEA′s unique mix of teachers and goals? And how should you begin?

Topics include: - Inducting new teachers - Continuing professional development programme design - District-funded programmes - Peer Assistance and Review programmes - State-funded programmes - Grant- and alternative-funded programs . . . all presented in a straightforward and accessible style. Mentoring Programs for New Teachers is a great first step in establishing a mentoring program that will affect hiring, orientation, teacher effectiveness, and staff morale for the better!
The Fifth Floor
When Michael Kelly agrees to track the movements of an abusive husband, little does he know he is about to become embroiled in a murder investigation and a plot to re-write history. What Kelly thinks is a routine domestic case soon turns sour when he finds a body in an old house. As links with the City Hall's notorious fifth floor and Chicago's longest standing mystery start to emerge, it turns out the history books may not be quite what they seem. Plunged into a world of corruption and startling intrigue Kelly struggles to unearth the truth before an unknown enemy can frame him for the murder. Michael Harvey's tough-talking ex-cop turned PI returns in this urgent, stylish, ferociously absorbing follow up to his masterful debut, The Chicago Way.
