*Volume 2, Edition 14 – Building Student Leadership Building student leadership is a goal most teachers have, as it enhances student's lives both inside and outside the classroom. In an article for Education Week: Teacher, veteran teacher and author Larry Ferlazzo discusses research-based best practices for helping students realize their potential as leaders. *Volume 2, Edition 15 – Diversifying Types of Non-Fiction Text In elementary grades, the majority of non-fiction or informational text is done through read-alouds.

In an article for Teaching Children Mathematics, a pair of Wayne State University instructors discuss methods for teaching fractions and percentages in a way that maximizes student mastery of both ideas.
