A Classroom of Individuals is a must read for anyone whose daily life is touched by children. In this book, Celia Spencer has combined humor, inspiration, and common sense to the everyday situations of a teacher. Teachers play an important role in fostering the intellectual and social development of children during their formative years. What children learn and experience during their early years can shape their views of themselves and the world in which they live. This book will encourage others to provide children with social, emotional, and academic growth in a loving environment. A teacher cannot tell from one year to the next what events will emerge and how they will define their classrooms, but they can control how they will react to those events. These short stories and educational quotes are a must read for anyone who appreciates the uniqueness of each child.
