Teach Like a Champion 2.0: 62 Techniques that Put Students on the Path to College

A seminal text. While perhaps best known by for its behavior management strategies, I’ve learned in my 10+ years as a public school educator that its greatest value comes with its treatment of higher level topics. To name a few: increasing “thinking ratio,” *effectively* checking for student understanding (at each stage of the lesson - not just as the end!), creating a positive “culture of error,” “excavating” error (to help students learn from common misconceptions), teaching the “art of the sentence,” and the list goes on. As a teacher and school leader, I’ve seen countless teachers rely upon the concepts and shared language this text provides on their way to becoming dynamic, engaging, highly- effective teachers. Thanks goodness for this book. P.S. For white people (like myself) who teach majority people of color, I believe it’s important to pair TLAC - and others that are similar - with texts that offer invaluable cultural context. Books like “How to Be an Antiracist” (Kendi), “White Fragility” (Denagelo), and “For White Folks...” (Emdin). No one book should ever be considered the end-all-be-all, especially for white folks who need to be extra thoughtful about the impact of their words and actions on their students.

Tris book is a great tool for both teachers who are at the beginning of their career and more experienced teachers.

Teach Like A Champion 2.0 is one of the finest books about education I've ever read, and I usually dislike books about education. The central contention of Lemov's research is that veteran teachers are a critical source of professional knowledge. This expertise is not developed by reading books of theory; it is gained through decades of work in the classroom by dedicated, practical and thoughtful K-12 teachers who have little interest in escaping from their students. Lemov's research is based on observing and systematizing their work, and his summary is an outstanding example of classroom-based research. Some people will, of course, despise the book. I've seen many education professors on social media twist themselves into knots over TLAC. The idea that front-line practitioners are a better source than professors for good professional instruction is a profound threat, and it shows. Certain activists who believe that political philosophy must equal educational philosophy are also suspicious of the book, though most have apparently not read it. For them, a concept like classroom management must necessarily be code for domination and compliance, despite classroom management being an essential skill for any teacher who aspires to a successful career. I completed a Master's degree in philosophy, and yet I've never seen education as a philosophical or theoretical exercise. If it exists, educational theory must grow out of practice; theory must not drive the bus. As such, TLAC is a breath of fresh air. I read it 26 years into my public school career, and it was a revelation to see clarity and insight brought to processes I have worked on all my career. In my opinion, it's an essential read for all new teachers. For veterans, Lemov's book will significantly refine your professional skills. If you're serious about classroom teaching, you owe it to yourself to read Teach Like A Champion 2.0.
