Great book. I enjoyed reading and creating lesson plans for my students.
The structure is clear, I like the examples. They were related with the real classroom cases.
I can’t be negative about the book, the quality and the information is very helpful.Besides that Just I concerned about the prizes. It was very expensive in my opinion.
