Education Writers to Read #1

In his own words:

I teach English, Social Studies and International Baccalaureate classes to English Language Learners and mainstream students at Luther Burbank High School in Sacramento, California.

I've written seven books: Building A Community Of Self-Motivated Learners: Strategies To Help Students Thrive In School and Beyond; Classroom Management Q&As: Expert Strategies for Teaching; Self-Driven Learning: Teaching Strategies For Student Motivation; The ESL/ELL Teacher's Survival Guide (with co-author Katie Hull Sypnieski); Helping Students Motivate Themselves: Practical Answers To Classroom Challenges; English Language Learners: Teaching Strategies That Work; and Building Parent Engagement In Schools (with co-author Lorie Hammond).

I've won several awards, including the Leadership For A Changing World Award from the Ford Foundation and was the Grand Prize Winner of the International Reading Association Award for Technology and Reading.

I write a popular education blog at http://larryferlazzo.edublogs.org/ , a weekly teacher advice column for Education Week Teacher and a weekly post for The New York Times. My articles on education policy regularly appear in the Washington Post and the Huffington Post. In addition, my articles have appeared in publications such as ASCD Educational Leadership, Social Policy, and Language Magazine. I also host an online radio show on The BAM! Network.

I was a community organizer for nineteen years prior to becoming a public school teacher.

In my words: 

I cannot imagine how Larry Ferlazzo gets everything done! Just teaching his students is more than a fulltime career! But he is an excellent, impactive education writer representing his students with knowledge, persistence, and intelligence of information. Read everything he's written, and keep up with his outstanding new stuff.  RSS feeds could help.

“How to Practice Restorative Justice in Schools”
