Average Rating:
 out of 5 stars
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Research on Teaching
This is a very dry book with a lot of excellent ideas. Though hard to read, it is valid in what it presents.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent Read
I felt the book was an excellent read. I liked the way it segmented and summarized the classroom instruction methods. However, I did feel at times it went too deep into the research portion, when a nice short summary would have done the job. Also thought the charts used to document research findings could have been displayed better. Overall, as a non-teacher pursuing a teaching degree, it brought me up to speed on classroom instruction strategies.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best teacher guide EVER
This booklet provides vastly more instruction on the nitty-gritty of what teachers need in the classroom. Thank you!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Marzano is a must read.
I wish I would have heard of Robert Marzano my first year of teaching. This book explains the research behind the classroom instruction and gives you ideas of what you should do. This is a great book to have with the "Handbook for Classroom Instruction that Works".



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great resource!
After hearing so much in teacher in-services about "Marzano strategies" I decided to check out his work myself. I was struck by the simple fact they are not his strategies as people talk about. Instead, they are research supported strategies that he and other authors/researchers have compiled and shrunk down into some user-friendly nuggets. The book is very easy to read, provides ample sources of real research, and is practical. The layout is great and the content superb. It is an excellent resource for teachers looking to improve their instruction based on reliable and somewhat traditional methods.
