Choice Words

Discover Choice Words - a book that explores how productive classrooms are built on emotionally and relationally healthy learning communities. Renowned author Peter H. Johnston shows how teachers create intellectually stimulating environments that produce technically competent students while also nurturing caring, secure, and actively literate human beings. With examples of apparently ordinary words, phrases, and uses of language, Johnston highlights how language is the most powerful tool a teacher has in the classroom. Choice Words emphasizes the importance of language in children's learning journeys, providing strategic thinking skills that go beyond traditional literacy strategies. A must-read for teachers who want to be more aware of the impact their language has on their students' growth.
